This study is about Cho Heon-yeong's 『Eastern Medicine Series (東洋醫學叢書)』. It consists of 5 clinical books, 『Therapy for People (民衆醫術理療法)』, 『Tuberculosis Eastern Medical Treatment (肺病漢方治療法)』, 『Neurasthenia Treatment (神經衰弱症治療法)』, 『Gastrointestinal Disease Treatment (胃腸病治療法)』 and 『Gynecological Treatment (婦人病治療法)』, which were published between 1935-1941. This series mainly succeeded 『Donguibogam (東醫寶鑑)』, and was influenced by 『Kyeongakjeonseo (景岳全書)』, and 『Hwangjenegyeong (黃帝內經)』. Cho Heon-yeong's medical philosophy appears in two ways. First, he emphasized invigoration in treatment for the people who lacked nutrition and medical care at the time. Second, eclecticism of Korean Medicine and Western medicine is specifically revealed through this series. He aimed for a comprehensive medicine that consists mainly of Korean medicine and includes only a part of Western medicine.

Behcet's disease is a rare multisystemic disorder whose main pathological defectis vasculitis, and superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome without thrombosis is a very rare manifestation of the disease. These authors encountered a case of SVC syndrome without thrombosis caused by Behcet's disease. A 33-year-old man visited the hospital for aggravated dyspnea without any related medical and familial history. He had a threeday history of abrupt swelling of the face, neck, and right arm. He suffered from recurrent oral ulcer, and there were acneiform nodules on his face as well as redness and swelling at the site of the intravenous injection. On the multi-detected computed tomography (CT) chest angiograms (chest angio MDCT), the SVC narrowed without thrombosis. Venogram was carried out, and percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty of the SVC stenotic site was performed. The following day, the swelling was found to have subsided. The details of the case are reported herein.

Objectives : The purpose of this paper is to understand the meaning of Yangmingzhongfeng in the Shanghanlun. Methods :Each verse was analyzed, along with consideration of the general context of the Bianyangmingbingmaizhengbingzhi(辨陽明病脈證幷治) chapter where Yangmingzhongfeng is explained. The meaning of Yangmingzhongfeng was discussed with a focus on the intention underlying the contrast between Zhongfeng[中風] and Zhonghan[中寒] within the text. Results : In Yangming Disease, disease patterns that have mutated from other channels are differentiated as either Zhuanshu[轉屬, change of assignment] or Zhuanxi[轉繫, change of connection]. Zhuanshu refers to the situation where symptoms of the original pathological site has disappeared, therefore being assigned to Yangming. Zhuanxi refers to the before-and-after pathological sites being connected. The condition of Zhuanxi is further divided into Taiyin and Yangming, where Zhuanxi Yangming needs to be differentiated from Zhuanshu Yangming in that the cathartic method[下法] cannot be applied even with the existence of constipation, despite it being the indication for such treatment. Yangming Zhongfeng and Yangming Zhonghan are differentiated according to coldness and heat of Zhuanxi Yangming. Conclusions : Yangming Zhongfeng refers to the heat type of Zhuanxi Yangming where the person presents constipation whilst residing exterior pattern. Yangming Disease cannot be understood as having a uniform pattern of Weijiashi-constipation-Shengqitang, and its disease pattern requires a multi-dimensional approach.

Background: Commensal bacteria play an important role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and probiotics have been used as treatment options. We aimed to explore the current use of probiotics and factors associated with their prescription in patients with IBD. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on a single hospital-based cohort. Patients were eligible if they were ≥18 years old, visited the IBD clinic as an outpatient more than twice during the study period, and had a confirmed diagnosis of IBD. Patients were divided into two groups based on the prescription of probiotics. Clinical assessments were compared between the two groups. Results: In total, 217 patients were enrolled in this study. In patients with Crohn disease (CD), moderate or severe abdominal pain; prior use of methotrexate (MTX), iron, thiopurines, or biologics; history of IBD-related surgery; and stool frequency were independently associated with the prescription of probiotics. In patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), moderate or severe abdominal pain, hematochezia, stool frequency, and moderate or severe physician global assessment score were independently associated with the prescription of probiotics. Conclusion: Increased disease activity may be associated with fewer prescriptions of probiotics in patients with IBD. However, physicians prescribed probiotics to control symptoms, such as abdominal pain and increased stool frequency in patients with UC and CD, and hematochezia in patients with UC. Additionally, the use of MTX and iron, and a history of IBD-related surgeries were associated with more frequent probiotic prescriptions in patients with CD.

Accumulation of pathogens in chest refers to a syndrome of fullness, stuffiness and pain in the chest, diaphragm, epigastrium and abdomen, which is ascribable to accumulation of pathogenic heat with stagnancy of fluid or phlegm in the chest. Retching refers to vomiting with sound but without any vomitus. It is usually ascribable to adverse flow of ki due to deficiency of stomach, or by pathogenic heat or cold, and failure in descending of the stomach-ki. It may also be found in Soyang disease. Bloody purulent stool refers to passing stool with blood and pus. It is formed mainly due to invasion of the stomach and the intestines by epidemic pathogenic summer-heat, steaming of stagnateed damp-heat fighting against ki and blood, or improper diet, obstruction of bu-ki stagnation of blood and ki.

Objectives : The publication of a specialized medical text on a specific disease at a specific time means that the disease which had broken out previously has become a problem throughout society. In this paper, changes in perception of the pediatric infectious diseases Douchuang(痘瘡, smallpox) and Mazhen(麻疹) were examined in the medical texts, the Donguibogam, Jejungsinpyeon, Yaksandang Sinjip Uibang Geumnangjibo, and the Uijongboik. Methods : Entries on Mazhen are brief within the Donguibogam which was published before its pandemic, while in the Jejungsinpyeon, which was published after Joseon had experienced the pandemic, understanding of the disease is rather insufficient. In the text Yaksandang Sinjip Uibang Geumnangjibo, which was published in the early 19th century, there is an abundance of personal accounts on the treatment of Douchuang and Mazhen. In the Uijongboik, various treatment methods of Douchuang and Mazhen could be found. Results & Conclusions : These findings could be interpreted as reflecting a development in medical knowledge of Hongzhen(紅疹) after years of experience dealing with the disease, which had been insufficient in the past as could be found in private medical texts written after the great Hongyi(紅疫, measles) pandemic had already passed. In that time Hongzhen(紅疹) had become one of the most important pediatric diseases, and peoples' perspectives had also changed accordingly.

Lee Dong-won based on the machanism of internal disease founded on Umhwa and Wonki in discriminating internal injury from external. His general idea of discrimination of internal injury from external could be thought as an reinterpretation of the concept from "Neijing", to Triple heater Wonki and ascending and descending of stomach qi. He distinguished between Yin disease and Yang disease and classified into internal and external injury. "Insufficiency of yang brings about cold syndrome." and "An excess of yang brings about heat syndrome." are considered as external infection, and "Insufficiency of yin brings about heat syndrome." and "An excess of yin brings about cold syndrome." as internal injury.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease in children. The global prevalence of pediatric NAFLD from general populations is 7.6%. In obese children, the prevalence is higher in Asia. NAFLD has a strong heritable component based on ethnic difference in the prevalence and clustering within families. Genetic polymorphisms of patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein 3 (PNPLA3), transmembrane 6 superfamily member 2, and glucokinase regulatory protein (GCKR) are associated with the risk of NAFLD in children. Variants of PNPLA3 and GCKR are more common in Asians. Alterations of the gut microbiome might contribute to the pathogenesis of NAFLD. High fructose intake increases the risk of NAFLD. Liver fibrosis is a poor prognostic factor for disease progression to cirrhosis. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy and magnetic resonance proton density fat fraction are more accurate for steatosis quantification than ultrasound. Noninvasive imaging methods to assess liver fibrosis, such as transient elastography, shear-wave elastography, and magnetic resonance elastography are useful in predicting advanced fibrosis, but they need further validation. Longitudinal follow-up studies into adulthood are needed to better understand the natural history of pediatric NAFLD.
