  • The purpose of the study was to evaluate the occlusal stability at the moment of dynamic occlusal tooth contact and to investigate the correlation between the occlusal stability and the masticatory muscle activities. It also evaluated the effect of short-term use of occlusal splints on the occlusal stability and the masticatory muscle activities in patients with temporomandibular disorders during maximum voluntary clenching by synchondronized with temporomandibular disorders during maximum voluntary clenching by synchronized use of the T-Scan system(Tekscan, Inc, USA) and K6-Diagnostic system(Myo-tronics Research, Inc, USA) The author measured its distance from retruded contact position(RCP) to intercuspal position(IP), average of contact intervals(ACI), total left-right statistics(TLR), average muscle activities of masseter and anterior temporal muscles during maximum voluntary clenching in 20 patients with temporomandibular disorders and 22 dental students as a control group. The data were compared between two groups and investigated for any correlations between the parameters. The results were as follows : 1. Both of the mean average of contact intervals and the mean absolute value of total left-right statistics during maximum voluntary clenching were increased in the patient group when compared with the control group. 2. Muscular disharmony of anterior temporal muscles of patient group is significantly greater than that of control group. However, muscular disharmony of masseter muscles of patient group is not significantly greater than that of control group. 3. There were significant correlations between muscular disharmony of anterior temporal muscles and average of contact intervals as well as total left-right statistics, and also between muscular disharmony of masseter muscles and total left-right statistics. 4. There were not any significant correlations between distance from RCP to IP and any other parameters. 5. There were a significant decrease in total left-right statistics and muscular disharmony of anterior temporal muscles during maximum voluntary clenching after a 1week use of occlusal splint in the patient group.

  • Objectives : The Gyotae-hwan formula has traditionally been applied to conditions of fearful throbbing[怔忡] and insomnia due to disharmony of the Heart and Kidney, of which experimental and clinical research has been carried out while those on its pathological mechanism and constituent compatibility have been inadequate. Methods : Pathological mechanism and constituent compatibility of the Gyotae-hwan formula as listed in the 『Comprehensive Medicine According to Master Han』(韓氏醫通) and the『Simple Recipes for Four Disciplines』(四科簡效方) were analyzed. Findings from recent researches searched using the keywords '交泰丸' and '교태환' in the OASIS and CNKI databases were referenced as well. Results : The Gyo-tae hwan was first mentioned in the text 『Comprehensive Medicine According to Master Han』by Mao Han in terms of constituent medicinals and application while measurements and name of formula were not listed while the concept of harmony between the Heart and Kidney was mentioned. In the『Simple Recipes for Four Discipline s』 written by Shixiong Wang, measurements of constituent medicinals, usages and name of formula were finally mentioned, along with its efficacy to treat fearful throbbing and insomnia due to disharmony between the Heart and the Kidney. Conclusions : In conclusion, the Gyo-tae hwan uses Coptidis Rhizoma as chief herb and Cinnamomi Cortex as assistant herb to change the state of disharmony between the Heart and Kidney to a harmonious state, treating insomnia and fearful throbbing.

  • All living things including human being consist of soul(spirit) and body. Soul is the root of a life and body frames it. I wrote this paper to tell how internal injury due to endogenous etiological factors and affection due to exegenous pathogenic factors, affect the internal organs and the external bodily from. This paper begins with description of the patterns of disharmony of the internal organs. General disorders of each Five-Jang(五藏) an be classified into two types of soul and body. The Liver and the Heart which lead changing to Yang(陽) of vital energy, have close relationship with spiritual symptoms because spirit is related to Yang. The Lung, Kidneys, the Spleen which lead changing to m(陰) of vital energy, mainly connected with physical disorders because body is relatively close to m. The Five-Jang are ruled by the Five-Phases(五行) system and cause troubles with Oche(五體) and the nine body orifice. Otherwise the main function of the Six-Bu(六府) is to receive food, absorb the usuable portions, and transmit and excrete waste. Therefore they can cause such problems as abdominal pain, distention, difficulty in urination, and constipation. The spleen is responsible for sending Grain-Ki)穀氣) 내 that is closely connected with the six-Bu. The Gall bladder takes care of control of giving out spirit. That's why it presents many symptoms related to the spirit that is ruled by the Five-Jang. Patterns of disharmony of external bodily form is influenced by the state of Maridians. Bodily forms get divided into many parts by the function of six-meridians(六經) to which they belong. Six-meridians have their own function related to excretion, related to excretion, retention, and balance(開闔樞). If local bodily froms get affected by pernicious influences, the Meridians to which they are attached will lose harmony and connot fulfil their own functions. Because the meridian symtem unifies all parts of the body, the whole body will be under the influence of the affection although local parts of the bodily forms get affected. Therefore the symptoms of disharmony should be considered in a synthetic view. There are however, also cases which should be focused on the very meridian channels affected. Disorder within a Meridian generates derangement in the pathway make it not to benefit the muscles and skin belong to it. Because the meridians connect the interior organs with the exterior bodily form, they are influenced by each other.

  • Color harmony of Moon and Spencer is based on the Munsell color harmony theory. This harmony theory is established in the three of harmony and disharmony, the harmony of the area of effect, and Aesthetic Measure of harmony and disharmony. Aesthetic Measure here is how to obtain the quantitative expression of the degree of harmony. American scholar Burkhoff were analyzed with the proposition that beauty of Moon-Spencer is with the order in complexity.
