As related to gender, duraton and diagnosis, Ll the relate factors-multiple diagnosis, emotinal problem, history of treatment, parafunctional habit, life distrubance, and trauma were analyzed. The obtained results were as follows : 1. The patients with multiple diagnosis were 83 percent and more often seen in women, chronic group and muscle-joint disorder group. 2. Duration of retreatment in chronic group and muscle-joint disorder was longer. 3. The patients with oral parafunctional habits were 89 percent and more often seen in women, chronic gorup, muscle-joint disorder group. 4. the Recurred patients showed 46 percent in history treatment, 42 percent in life distrubances, 39 percent in macrotrauma and 12 percent in emotional problem.

In order to establish a relationship between sleep related breathing disorder (SBD) and temporomandibular disorders (TMDs), a literature review was performed. A researching was performed based on PubMed, including english languages. Any clinical study identified relationship between SBD and TMD were selected in this review. 13 studies were analyzed in this review. According to SBD diagnosis, articles were grouped as follows: polysomnographic diagnosis (n=7), clinical diagnosis (n=2) and survey/self-report (n=4). 12 articles established a positive relation between SBD and TMD and 1 did not. SBD would be associated with protrusion/retrusion degree, myofascial pain, muscular and joint pathology, and other orofacial findings. It was analyzed that the retrusion of the mandible had the significant influence on the severity of the SBD.

The surface segregation and surface order near the order-disorder phase transition of FeCo alloy was studied through Monte Carlo simulation of an Ising type model Hamiltonian. The results showed that the proper choice of Hamiltonian parameters could reproduce the recent observation of surface order above the transition temperature and that the field term played dominant role.

Purpose: The study is to discover the relationship between malocclusion, which is known to cause temporomandibular disorder, and temporomandibular disorder and is aimed at college students who have retained their natural teeth. Methods: The study was aimed at 500 college students at two colleges located in Gyeongsangbuk-do and Daegu metropolitan city and survey research was conducted in order to discover any relationship between malocclusion and temporomandibular disorder. After excluding copies with insincere answers or errors out of the 500 copies of the questionnaire, the study used a total of 435 copies (87%) for research and analysis. Results: Females showed a prevalence of temporomandibular joint clicking and temporomandibular joint pain, and students who had crowding showed a high prevalence of temporomandibular joint pain, temporomandibular joint clicking, and trismus. Students whose occlusal condition was not good demonstrated a high prevalence of temporomandibular joint pain, temporomandibular joint clicking, and trismus. Students who had maxillary protrusion showed a prevalence of temporomandibular joint clicking and trimus, whereas students who had mandibular protrusion showed a high prevalence of temporomandibular joint clicking. Conclusion: Students whose dental condition was crowding and students whose occlusal condition was not good exhibited a high prevalence of three types of symptoms of temporomandibular disorder. Meanwhile student who had maxillary protrusion showed a high prevalence of temporomandibular joint clicking and trismus, while students who had mandibular protrusion showed a prevalence of temporomandibular joint clicking.

Objectives: The objective of this case report is to find a therapeutic effect of Gyeji-tang in panic disorder patients, based on Shanghanlun provision. Methods: At patient's first visit, we had conducted a medical interview in order to diagnose the physical and mental symptoms of the patient. A questionnaire called BAI had been also used to measure the degree of anxiety in panic disorder. After all the diagnoses had been done, the patient was allowed to take 120cc of Gyeji-tang, three times a day for 25 weeks. 25 weeks later, we conducted a second medical interview to compare with the initial treatment and to evaluate whether his physical and mental symptoms had been decreased or not. Likewise, the patient was asked to fill out the BAI questionnaire to measure the decline of anxiety degree. Results: Based on Shanghanlun provision, the patient with panic disorder due to overwork was diagnosed as Tai-yang-bing. Considering that the patient was having dyspnea, 15th provision of Gyeji-tang was selected and administered for 25 weeks. After 25 weeks, we could have observed that the main physical symptoms such as palpitation, dyspnea, stifling, headache, and fatigue were moderately improved. Moreover, the BAI score, which was evaluated to measaure the degree of anxiety, was also decreased from 49 points to the level of normal condition, 16 points. Conclusions: A 44 year old male patient who suffered from panic disorder due to overwork was allowed to take 15th provision Gyeji-tang for 25 weeks, based on Shanghanlun Provision. In results, the main physical symtpoms including dyspnea, palpitation, stifling, headache, and fatigue, and mental symptom such as extreme anxiety were all effectively improved.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relations between sensory processing and sleep disturbances and to investigate the effect of sensory processing on sleep disorder in preschool children with developmental disorder. This study was conducted for 110 children with developmental disorder in developmental clinic and rehabilitation hospital in Gwang Ju from June to August, 2017. The final 109 data were analyzed. Sensory processing and Sleep disturbances were measured using the Shortened sensory profile(SSP) and Korean-the Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire(K-CSHQ). Statistical analysis was performed using descriptive analysis, Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis were performed. Children with developmental disorder had problems with sensory processing and sleep habits. Sensory processing was related to sleep habit and most important factors of sensory processing influencing sleep was taste/olfactory sensitivity, auditory filtering. Conclusion: In order to help children with developmental disorder with sleep problem, it is necessary to consider the sensory processing especially taste/olfactory sensitivity, auditory filtering.

Objectives The purpose of this study is to figure out the recent trend of the treatment for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) by comparing Korean and Chinese clinical studies. Methods National Digital Science Library (NDSL), Oriental medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System (OASIS), Research Information Sharing Service (RISS) and Korean Traditional Knowledge Portal (KTKP) were used to search Korean studies which were published from January, 2011 to May, 2017. Also Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Wanfang data were used to search Chinese studies which were published from the same period. Key words of 'Autism' and 'Autism spectrum disorder' were used. Results 3 Korean studies and 21 Chinese studies were selected and analyzed to find out the most commonly used diagnostic criteria, treatments, including herbal medicine and acupuncture, and treatment assessment procedures. Conclusions As a result of comparing Korean and Chinese clinical studies for the treatment of ASD, both Korean and Chinese medicine treatments showed their effectiveness. However, there were some differences between two countries' clinical trends. In order for this study to be helpful, more highly evidenced clinical studies should be followed.

Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate degree of national exam's stress, symptom of temporomanibular disorder(TMD) in allied health students and relationship between of them. Methods: A self-reported questionnaire was completed by 305 students of dental hygiene and physical therapy in Chungbuk and Gyeongnam in December 2015. Except incomplete questionnaire, 260 data were analyzed using SPSS 12.0 program. The study instruments consisted of subjective symptom of temporomandibular disorder, bad habit of mouth and degree of national exam's stress. Results: National exam stress was higher in female and subjective unhealthy students(p<0.05). High group and usual group on national exams's stress showed high subjective symptom(p<0.05). National exam's stress were related to subjective symptom of TMD and bad habit of mouth(p<0.05, p<0.01). Subjective symptom of TMD were related to bad habits of mouth(p<0.01). Conclusion: The degree of stress, TMD and bad habits of mouth on national exam test was high. therefore, it is important to manage the national exam's stress and to develop program in order to reduce the national exam's stress in allied health students.
