Objectives: Many acupuncture points have been suggested for the treatment of Bell's palsy, but information on which acupuncture points are more important in treatment is not provided. This study was conducted to investigate the importance of acupuncture points currently used clinically in Bell's palsy. Methods: By reviewing the full text of 11 books that recorded acupuncture prescriptions from the Qin Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, the frequency of use of acupuncture points, their meridians, and their location were investigated. Results: The average number of acupuncture points used for local, adjacent and distal points selection was 10.5, 2, 4 respectively. The number of acupuncture points increased from the Qin Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty 《Bojaebang》 and then decreased, but the proportion of local points has been still high. From the Ming Dynasty, ST4, ST6, GV26, and GV24 were mainly have been used as the local points. Except for the GB12, the use of the rest of the acupuncture points gradually decreased in the adjacent points. In the distal acupuncture points, it was summarized to point of lung and large intestine channel until the Ming Dynasty, and LI4 was mainly used in the Qing Dynasty. Yangming meridian has been most often used at the local and distal area except for the adjacent area. Conclusions: In the treatment of facial paralysis, the lower part of the face had the highest proportion among local acupuncture points, and the Yangming had the highest proportion by meridian.

The aim of this study was to investigate the dietary attitude, popularization and merchandising intention of native local foods in the Yeongcheon area using a questionnaire. The questionnaire was answered by 322 citizens living in Yeongcheon. The findings are summarized as follows: 25.8% of the respondents stated that 'familiarity in taste' was the reason that they like local foods. 32.0% of the subjects said 'mass media' was the reason they knew about local foods. The most important aspect of local foods for tourism was 'taste' (44.7%). One of the main conditions for the popularization of local foods was 'holding various kinds of cultural events' (25.2%). The most recognized native local food in the Yeongcheon area was 'Ukhoe' (3.60 points), followed by 'Samsong-gun-mandu' (3.58 points), 'Dotorimuk-muchim', 'Hanu-sutbul-gui' and 'Chueotang'. On the other hand, the recognition score for 'Gompi-namul' (2.63 points), 'Piramijorim' (2.77 points), 'Sangeo-pipyeon', 'Muneochae-sukhoe' was very low. The most effective local food in developing tourism in Yeongcheon was 'Ukhoe' (3.70 points), followed by 'Hanu-sutbul-gui' (3.69 points), 'Dombaegi-gui-jjim', 'Samsong-gun-mandu', 'Someri-suyuk'. The results of this study indicate that the tourism commercialization intention of Yeongcheon local foods was significantly dependent on demographic factors (gender, age, education, dwelling period). Males had a high tourism product intention for 'Ukhoe', while female was high intention for 'Sogogi-jeongol' and 'Kongnip-kimchi'. The tourism commercialization intention for most Yeongcheon local foods increased as the dwelling period increased.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of local food value perception on purchasing and experience in consumers. ${\chi}^2$-test, ANOVA, and linear regression analysis were conducted. The findings are summarized as follows: The most common place for buying agricultural products was 'hypermarkets' (41.7%), and the most important factor for purchasing local food was 'local government's certification products' (23.7%). The most important value recognition item for local food was 'I think that local food is a high-quality agricultural products'. (3.74 points), followed by 'I think that local food have a value of respect for customers' (3.61 points) and 'I have a faith for the local food'. (3.61 points) in that order. The main tourism experience activity was 'food experience' (49.0%), and information source of local food experience tourism was 'mass media (TV, newspapers, etc.)' (37.3%). As age increased, experience of local food also increased. The most effectual value recognition item for purchasing local food was 'I think that local food have a value of respect for customers'. The most effectual value recognition item for increasing intake experience of local food was 'I think that the local food is high-quality agricultural products'.

In this paper, an adaptive numerical integration scheme, which does not need non-overlapping and contiguous integration meshes, is proposed for the MLPG (Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin) method. In the proposed algorithm, the integration points are located between the neighboring nodes to properly consider the irregular nodal distribution, and the nodal points are also included as integration points. For numerical integration without well-defined meshes, the Shepard shape function is adopted to approximate the integrand in the local symmetric weak form, by the values of the integrand at the integration points. This procedure makes it possible to integrate the local symmetric weak form without any integration meshes (non-overlapping and contiguous integration domains). The convergence tests are performed, to investigate the present scheme and several numerical examples are analyzed by using the proposed scheme.

In this paper insertion of numerous control points to be performed by using the Chebyshev polynomial root at the selection of knot vector. This method introduces a simple method of knot refinement and it is applied in a developed program. The Chebyshev roots exist densely in broth ends of the range and are proposed more effective knot refinement to modify a surface. Therefore, generated control points are relatively uniform in specified knot interval. In the surface generation, a local insertion of numerous control points are easily inserted by using the characteristic of Chebyshev polynomial roots at knot refinement. It is possible to create a complex surface with a single surface. The number of control point can be reduced by using the local insertion of control points in a required shape

The patient with muscle contraction headache usually have one or more specific trigger points. These trigger points have been treated with various treatment modalities including "stretch and spray" and regional infiltration with local anesthetics with or without corticosteroids. I treated 36 patients with muscle contraction headache with regional infiltration of local anesthetics and steroid into trigger points and the results were as follows 1) The diagnosis of muscle contraction headache was possible by confirming specific trigger points by palpation. 2) Patients relieved rapidly from headache by regional infiltration of local anesthetics and steroid into the tender point. 3) Single injection was effective in relieving headache. But the curability of the single injection could not be assessed because of difficulty in follow-up study. 4) Active trigger points could be occasionally inactive, which also made difficult in assessing the effectiveness of the treatment.

In nonlinear finite element stability analysis of structures, the foremost necessary procedure is the computation to precisely locate a singular equilibrium point, at which the instability occurs. The present study describes global and local procedures for the computation of stability points including bifurcation points and limit points. The starting point, at which the procedure will be initiated, may be close to or arbitrarily far away from the target point. It may also be an equilibrium point or non-equilibrium point. Apart from the usual equilibrium path, bypass and homotopy path are proposed as the global path to the stability point. A local iterative method is necessary, when it is inspected that the computed path point is sufficiently close to the stability point.
