Objectives : The treatment starts with physical examination. The four examinations(四診) is a method to examine the disease. The books on history of diagnostics about it contained substantial contents about inspection(望診) and palpation including pulse taking(切診), while they contained little contents about auscultation(聞診) and interrogation or questioning(問診) relatively. For this reason, this study was conducted as on interrogation first of all. Methods : I looked into the contents related to interrogation that were scattered in plenty of books. There were chapters of specialty in interrogation since the Ming dynasty, so I looked into these chapters in chronological order. Results & Conclusions : The level of the contents of interrogation prior to the Ming dynasty were rudimentary and recapitulative. However, there was a turning point by three kinds of books appeared in the Ming dynasty. Yixuerumen Wenzheng dealt with detailed contents. Yixuezhunshengliuyao Wenbingbixiang extended the range of contents. Jingyuequanshu Shiwenpian systematized Eight Principle Pattern Identification(八綱辨證) with increase of contents. Since then, books of the Qing Dynasty were mostly based on three kinds of books ahead. Among these, Yimenfalu Yimingwenbingzhifa(醫門法律 一明問病之法) and Xingsewaizhenjianma wenfa(形色外診簡摩 問法) mentioned the importance of a succinct interrogation that hit the mark and Yibian Yiwenzheng dealt with another detailed contents unlike the previous books based on substantial contents.

The hepatoprotective effect of DA-9601, a quality-controlled extract of artemisisa asiatica, on liver damage induced by acetaminophen (APAP) and carbon tetrachloride ($CCI_{4}$) was investigated by means of serum-biochemical, hepatic-biochemical, and histopathological examinations. Doses of Da-9601 (10, 30, or 100 mg/kg) were administered intragastrically to each rat on three consecutive days i.e. 48 h, 24 h and 2 h before a single administration of APAP (640 mg/kg, i.p.) or $CCI_{4}$ (2 ml/kg, p.o.). Four h and 24 h after hepatotoxin treatment, the animals were sacrificed for evaluation of liver damage. Pretreatment of Da-9601 reduced the elevation of serum ALT, AST. LDH and histopathological changes such as centrilobular necrosis, vacuolar degeneration and inflammatory cell infiltration dose-dependently. Da-9601 also prevented APAP- and $CCI_{4}$-induced hepatic glutathione (GSH) depletion and $CCI_{4}$-induced increase of hepatic malondialdehyde (MDA), a parameter of lipid peroxidation, in a chemically induced liver injury by complex mechanisms which involve prevention of lipid peroxidation and preservation of hepatic GSH.

In recent years, medical procedures have become more complex, while financial pressures for shortened hospital stays and increased efficiency in patient care have increased. As a result, several shortcomings of present film-based systems for managing medical images have become apparent. Maintaining film space is labor intensive and consumes valuable space. Because only single copies of radiological examinations exist, they are prone to being lost or misplaced, thereby consuming additional valuable time and expense. In this paper, MINI-PACS for image archiving, transmission, and viewing offers a solution to these problems. Proposed MINI-PACS consists of mainly four parts such as Web Module, Client-Server Module, Internal Module, Acquisition Module. In addition, MINI-PACS system includes DICOM Converter that Non-DICOM file format converts standard file format. In Client-Server Module case, Proposed system is combined both SCU(Service Class User: Client) part and SCP(Service Class Provider: Server)part therefore this system provides the high resolution image processing techniques based on windows platform. Because general PACS system is too expensive for Medium and Small hospitals to install and operate the full-PACS. Also, we constructed Web Module for database connection through the WWW.

The present study was carried out to investigate the potential acute toxicity of Balbusae caulis in taeniam by a single oral dose in Sprague-Dawley rats. Twenty rats of each sex were randomly assigned to four groups of 5 rats each and were administered singly by gavage at dose levels of 0, 1250, 2500, and 5000 mg/kg body weight. Mortalities, clinical findings, and body weight changes were monitored for the 14-day period following administration. At the end of 14-day observation period, all animals were sacrificed and complete gross postmortem examinations were per-formed. Throughout the study period, no treatment-related deaths were observed. There were no adverse effects on clinical signs, body weight, and gross finding at any dose tested. The results showed that the single oral administration of Balbusae caulis in taeniam did not cause any toxic effect at the dose levels of 5000 mg/kg or lower in rats and the minimal lethal dose was considered to be over 5000 mg/kg body weight for both sexes.

From December 1995 to July 1997, a total of 546 Korean indigenous goats were examined for the presence of internal parasites by parenchymal organs and fecal examinations. Four hundreds seventy eight(87.5%) of the goats were infected with 4 classes and 12 parasitic species. The nematodes were Haemonchus contortus(57.5%), Oesophagostomun venulosum (52.6%), Strongyloides papillosus(48.4%), Ostertagia sp(28.4%), Trichostrongylus colubriformis(17.0%), and Trichuris ovis(13.2%). The trematodes were Paramphistomum sp(17.6%), Fasciola hepatica(15.4%), and Eurytrema Pancreaticum (8.8%). The cestode was Moniezia expansa(16.7%), and the protozoa were Eimeria sp(74.9%) and Toxoplasma gondii(8.6%). The incidence of single or mixed infections among 12 parasitic species were one species infection (6.2%), 2 species(11.5%), 3 species(19.6%), 4 species(24.9%), 5 species(17.8%), 6 species(5.9 %), and 7 species(1.6), respectively. The level of infection according to the age was considerably higher under one year(97.2%) than between one and two years(89.7%), and over two years(69.3%) Among 12 parasites, seasonal pattern was remarkably observed. Most paracites were detected at the highest level in the Winter, whereas Strongyloides papillosus and Paramphistomum sp were in the Spring, and Ostertagia sp and Fasciola hepatica were in the Autumn. Infection rates of Anaplasma sp were 8.6% of 210 goats by blood smear method, and 51.0% by complement fixation test.

From 2006 to 2009, 50 pigs suspected of enteritis associated with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2) (EAPC) were collected. Gross and histopathologic examinations and immunohistochemistry (IHC) were performed on the small intestine of 50 pigs. The pigs with EAPC were concentrated in grower pigs (68%), and diarrhea (84%) was the most common clinical sign. Grossly, the walls of the small intestine were thickened, and mesenteric lymph nodes were enlarged. The histopathologic features in the small intestine with EAPC were characterized by lymphoid depletion, histiocytic infiltration, and formation of basophilic grape-like inclusion bodies and multinucleated giant cells in gut-associated lymphatic tissue (GALT) and lamina propria. According to IHC, PCV-2 antigens were more intense and distributed widely in GALT (98%) than lamina propria (82%) of the small intestine. Co-infection with other enteric pathogens was detected in 26 pigs (52%). Twenty-four pigs (48%) were confirmed to be a PCV-2 single infection. Collectively, infected PCV-2 in the small intestine may induce an immunosuppressive status of individuals and then allow secondary co-infections in the digestive system. This study shows that PCV-2 can induce diarrhea and enteric lesions in pigs without a co-infection of other enteric pathogens.

CW-270031 is a novel synthesized carbapenem antibiotic with a broad antimicrobial activity. Carbapenem antibiotics are well known for their nephrotoxicity. In this study, we evaluated the nephrotoxicity potential of this compound in rabbits, which are known for being more sensitive than other animals to renal insult. CW-270031 was administered to NZW male rabbits via an ear vein (200 mg/kg, single injection). Blood samples were collected on 2, 3, and 4 days after treatment. Urea nitrogen and creatinine in plasma were quantified. Four days after the treatment, all animals were autopsied and histopathological examinations were performed on their kidneys, revealing that cephaloridine and imipenem were highly nephrotoxic, and cefazolin had mild renal toxicity, whereas CW-270031 as well as meropenem and tienam had no toxicity to the kidney. The present findings suggest that CW-270031 is a potential carbapenem antibiotic with no nephrotoxicity.
