Citri Reticulatae Viride Pericarpium extract(CRVP) have been used in oriental medicine for many centuries as a therapeutic agent for Soothing the liver and regulating the circulation of qi(疏肝理氣), and promoting digestion and removing stagnated food(消積化滯). The effects of CRVP on the vascular system is not known. The purpose of this Study was to investigate the effects of CRVP on the pial arterial diameter and regional cerebral blood flow(rCBF) in normal rats and ischemic cerebrovascular pathologic model rats. The changes in rCBF was determinated by Laser-Doppler Flowmetry(LDF), and the changes in pial arterial diameter were determinated by video microscopy methods and video analyzer. The results were as follows ; 1. Pial arterial diameter was significantly increased by CRVP in a dose-dependent manner. 2. Pretreatment with L-NNA significantly inhibited CRVP induced increased rCBF and pial arterial diameter. 3. Both the methylene chloride fraction and the hexane fraction of CRVP dose-dependently improved the altered cerebral hemodynamics of cerebral ischemic animal by increasing rCBF. 4. Pretreatment with L-NNA and indomethacin significantly inhibited CRVP(MC) induced increased rCBF. 5. Pretreatment with L-NNA and indomethacin significantly inhibited CRVP(hexane) induced increased rCBF. 6. Pretreatment with CRVP maredly stabilized the changes rCBF and pial arterial diameter during the period of cerebral reperusion. In conclusion, CRVP causes a diverse response of rCBF and pial arterial diameter, and CRVP dose-dependently improved the altered cerebral hemodynamics of cerebral ischemic animal by increasing rCBF and pial arterial diameter. These results suggest that the improvement of cerebral hemodynamics is also mediated by nitric oxide synthase and cyclooxygenase.

It is difficult to obtain a satisfactory bony union of large bone defect secondary to trauma, tumor resection, congenital pseudarthrosis of tibia and bony metaplasia following infection with conventional methods. Conventional nonvascularized autologous bone graft do not provide adequate large amounts of donor bone and usually undergo necrosis or nonunion due to lack of vascular nutrition. Currently, advanced in microsurgery have made it possible to provide a continuing circulation of blood in bone grafts so as to ensure viability. With the nutrient blood supply preserved, healing of the graft to the recipient bone is facilitated without the usual replacement of the graft by creeping substitution. Thus, the grafted bone is achieved more rapid stabilization without sacrificing viability. We reviewed 11 cases of vascularized fibular grafts which were performed from December 1982 to January 1993 and the following results were obtained: 1. Large bone defects with chronic osteomyelitis secondary to trauma were could be successfully treated by the vascularized fibular transfer. 2. In our experience, the vascularized fibular transfer was thought to be one of good methods of treatment for congenital pseudathrosis of tibia. 3. Complete tumor resection was followed by a free vascularized fibular transfer, resulting in good functional improvement, without local recurrence. Long bone defect secondary to bony dysplasia was could be reconstructed by the vascularized fibular transfer. 4. The transferred vascularized fibula had been hypertrophied with bony union during follow-up period and there was no resorption of the grafted fibula.

폐경과 더불어 시작되는 폐경기의 에스트로겐 변화로 발생되는 건강 문제 중 심혈관계 질환이 문제점으로 대두되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 갱년기 장애 시 유발되는 체내 지질 함량 증가에 있어서 오징어 부산물의 에탄올 추출물이 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위해 인위적 폐경을 유발시킬 수 있는 난소 절제 암컷 흰쥐에서 오징어 부산물의 혈행개선, 항혈소판 응집능 및 혈중 지질 함량 변화에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 그 결과 갱년기를 유도한 CON군은 난소절제 시 에스트로겐 결핍으로 bone turnover이 증가되어 SHAM군에 비해 혈액 중의 ALP 활성이 증가되었으나, 오징어 부산물 투여에 의해 그 활성이 유의적으로 감소하였다. 갱년기 유도로 인한 혈장 내 혈액응고인자(coagulation factors)의 지나친 활성화 및 혈소판 응집 촉진으로 CON군의 모세관 통과 시간은 지연되었으나, 오징어 부산물의 에탄올 추출물 투여로 인해 혈류의 속도가 향상 되었다. 또한 난소를 절제한 CON군의 경우 SHAM군에 비해 혈소판이 빠르게 응집되는 결과가 나타났으며, 오징어 부산물의 에탄올 추출물을 투여한 군은 CON군에 비해 혈소판 응집이 억제되는 것으로 나타났다. 난소 절제하여 갱년기 장애를 유도한 흰쥐에 오징어 부산물의 에탄올 추출물을 투여하였을 때, 혈 중 중성 지방 함량이 낮아지고 HDL-cholesterol 함량이 높아지는 결과로 보아 오징어 부산물의 에탄올 추출물 투여가 난소 절제에 의해 소실된 estrogen의 지질대사 불균형에 유익한 영향을 주어 심혈관계 질환 개선에 영향을 준 것으로 사료된다. 또한 이것은 오징어 부산물 중의 $\omega$-3 지방산 및 미지의 펩타이드류 등이 복합적으로 작용하여 난소 절제한 흰쥐의 지질대사에 유익한 효과를 준 것으로 추측되며, 이에 대한 구체적인 내용에 대해서는 앞으로 더 깊은 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각되어 진다. 이상의 결과로부터 갱년기 장애 시 유발 되는 지질 대사 이상으로 오는 심혈관계 질환에 오징어 부산물의 에탄올 추출물이 유익한 결과를 줄 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose: This descriptive survey was conducted to investigate out the utilization of alternative complementary remedies for stroke patients. Method: The subject for this study were 194 patients, selected from inpatients department of 11 major medical center at Busan and Ulsan. Data were collected from August 19th to November 12th, 2002 through interview schedule designed by the investigator. Data was analyzed with frequency, percentage, and ${\chi}^2$-test by using SPSS Win 10.0. Results: 71.6% of objects has used alternative complementary remedies. The use of alternative complementary remedies according to disease-related features was statistically significant in concurrent diseases(${\chi}^2=15.03$, p=0.001), rehabilitation treatment(${\chi}^2=6.341$, p=0.012) and the level of ADL(${\chi}^2=19.63$, p=0.000). The most frequently used therapies were diet and nutrition(31.8%). The patients with less than 3month onset and in the mid-period of treatment frequently used remedies. The reason for using remedies were the belief in it's effects on treatment, but most patients responded was not effective(30.9%) or not much improvement after using remedies. Most of the patients were recommended to use remedies by their neighbors(27.3%) and family members(25.2%). The family members were most supportive in therapy(56.1%). The 28.1% of patients responded that the remedies were effective in promoting blood circulation and 95% of the patients had not experienced side effects. Conclusion: These results could be the basic material in developing nursing intervention for cerebral apoplexy patients.
