Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of combined therapy with Banhasasim-tang and conventional treatment for atrophic Gastritis. Methods: The study collected data of clinical studies of combined therapy with Banhasasim-tang and conventional treatment for atrophic gastritis. Electronic databases were used, including PubMed, Cochrane, CNKI, Wanfang, CINII, J-stage, NDSL, and OASIS. The main search terms included such as "Atrophic Gastritis", "Banhasasim-tang", "BanXia Xiexin Tang". This study only included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that adopted combined therapy with Banhasasim-tang and conventional treatment for atrophic gastritis. Results: A total of 18 RCTs were selected. They all adopted combined therapy with Banhasasim-tang and conventional treatment for atrophic gastritis. In all the studies, the intervention group significantly improved the score of effective rate, and in the 8 studies, Hp negative conversion rate was significantly improved when Banhasasim-tang was taken. Conclusion: Through the analysis of 18 RCTs, we found Banhasasim-tang combined with conventional therapy were more effective in the positive performance of atrophic gastritis than conventional therapy single contribution. However, due to the low quality of the selected studies and the lack of endoscopy, biopsy, follow-up observation, so there is a slight insufficient to prove its conclusion. Therefore, we hope that more systematic and diverse clinical studies will be conducted.

Purpose: We investigated the effects of single-leg stance training on standing balance and mobility in patients with subacute hemiplegia. Methods: Seventeen matched subjects were assigned randomly to the experimental group or the control group. The experimental group comprising of 8 subjects received single-leg stance training and conventional physical therapy interventions 5 times per week for 4 weeks. The control group comprising of 9 subjects received only conventional physical therapy interventions 5 times per week for 4 weeks. Outcome measures were assessed before and after 4 weeks of intervention using the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), gait speed, and weight bearing index of the affected side. Results: Both the exercise groups showed significant improvements in BBS, gait speed, and weight bearing index (p<0.05). After 4 weeks of intervention, there were statistically significant differences in BBS and weight bearing index between the two groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: These findings suggest that conventional physical therapy interventions along with single-leg stance training could be more effective than conventional physical therapy alone for improving standing balance and mobility in patients with subacute hemiplegia.

The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of balance training with 'TETRAX' system, a balance training and assessment tool, on balance and mobility in acute hemiplegic patients. Nineteen matched subjects were assigned randomly into either an experimental group or a control group. An experimental group with 10 subjects received balance training with 'TETRAX' exercise program and conventional physical therapy interventions 5 times per week during 4 weeks. A control group with 9 subjects received conventional physical therapy interventions 5 times per week during 4 weeks. Outcome measures were taken before and after 4 weeks of interventions using the Stroke Rehabilitation Assessment of Movement (STREAM), the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), gait speed, and the fall down index. Results indicated that both exercise groups improved significantly in STREAM, BBS, and gait speed (p<.05). The experimental group had a little improvement than the control group. Both exercise groups did not show statistical significance in fall down index (p<.05). Following 4 weeks of intervention, except gait speed there was no statistically significant difference between two groups. However, these findings suggest that conventional physical therapy interventions with visual feedback training could be effective on improving balance and mobility than conventional physical therapy alone in acute hemiplegic patients.

Background: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of massage and muscle reeducation training with conventional treatment in patients with facial paralysis. Methods: Twenty-five patients with facial nerve paralysis were randomly allocated to 3 groups: massage, muscle reeducation training, and control groups. Therapeutic intervention for the massage (n=8) and muscle reeducation training (n=8) groups consisted of conventional therapy such as application of hot pack and electrical stimulation plus massage therapy and muscle reeducation training, respectively. The control group (n=9) received only conventional therapy. Therapeutic intervention for each group was performed 6 times per week for 4 weeks. The patients were assessed by using the House-Brackmann Grading System (H-B grade) and Yanagihara Unweighted Grading System (Y grade) once every week. Results: The H-B and Y grades improved significantly in all 3 groups after a 4-week intervention (p<.01). At 3 and 4 weeks, the H-B and Y grades of the massage group improved significantly when compared with those of the control group (p<.01). Muscle reeducation training group showed significant improvements in the scores of the two grades with time when compared with the massage and control groups (p<.01). The rate of change in the H-B grade was significantly different between the control and muscle reeducation training groups (p<.01), and that of change in the Y grade was significantly different between the control and muscle reeducation training groups (p<.01) and between the control and massage groups (p<.01). Conclusion: These findings suggest that massage and muscle reeducation training are more effective in improving the condition of patients with facial nerve paralysis than conventional therapy. In particular, the results of this study indicate that muscle reeducation training can be recommended by clinicians since it provides more benefits.

We describe the successful treatment of a case of chronic myeloid leukemia with Qi therapy. The patient's disease was managed with conventional medical treatment and Qi therapy as a complementary therapy. Before Qi therapy, 95% of the patient's bone marrow showed evidence of disease. A second bone marrow sample five months after Qi therapy revealed that 38% of the bone marrow was normal; one year after Qi therapy the bone marrow was no longer producing any cancer cells. Although these results were obtained for a single case only and may not constitute conclusive evidence, the data suggest that Qi therapy given as a complementary therapy during conventional medical treatment may have beneficial effects on chronic myeloid leukemia.

목 적: 왼편 유방암 환자의 경우 오른편 유방암 환자보다 심장과 폐 등 정상장기에 불필요한 선량이 일부 조사됨에 따라 부작용이 우려되고 있다. 이를 줄이기 위해 DIBH기법을 시행하고 있다. Conventional Radiation Therapy, Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy, Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy의 치료계획 방법에 따라 쇄골상 림프절과 내유 림프절을 포함한 왼편 유방암의 경우 주변 장기의 선량 값을 비교 평가하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 왼편 유방암 환자 중 쇄골상 림프절과 내유 림프절을 포함한 환자 8명을 대상으로 Free Breathing과 Deep inspiration breath-hold 기법을 적용하여 각각 CT-Simulation을 시행한다. 획득한 영상을 기반으로 체표윤곽을 그려 95 %$D_{max}$<110 %이 되도록 Conventional Radiation Therapy, Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy, Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy방법으로 계획하였다. Conventional Radiation Therapy는 쇄골상 림프절에 1문조사, 유방 부분에 접선 2문조사로 Field in Field 기법을 사용하였다. Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy는 7개의 조사면으로 구성하였다. Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy은 회전반경을 $290^{\circ}{\sim}179^{\circ}$으로 한 2 ARC를 이용하여 계획을 수행하였다. Eclipse의 선량체적용적을 참고하여 주변 정상 장기 선량을 분석하였다. 결 과: Deep inspiration breath-hold기법을 적용함으로 심장과 흉벽 사이의 간격은 평균 $1.6{\pm}0.6cm$ 증가하였다. 폐의 평균 선량은 $19.2{\pm}1.0Gy$로 Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy에서 가장 작은 값이 나타났다. 심장의 $V_{30}(%)$은 $2.0{\pm}1.9$로 Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy에서 가장 작은 값이었다. 좌전하행 관상동맥에서는 평균 선량이 $25.4{\pm}5.4Gy$로 Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy에서 가장 작은 값으로 나타났다. 반대편 유방의 최대선량 값은 Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy일 때 $29.7{\pm}4.3Gy$로 가장 작은 값으로 나타났다. 결 론: 주변 정상장기 선량의 값을 비교해 보았을 때, Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy와 Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy은 치료에 적용할 수 있는 값으로 나타났다. 이 중 Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy가 적합한 치료계획 방법으로 사료된다.
