This study was investigated on anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity on Gu-Mi-Gang-Hwal-Tang which has been used for the treatment of common cold and headache, arthralgia, fever in oriental medicine. The anti-inflammatory activities of Gu-Mi-Gang-Hwal-Tang water extract (GMGHT) on the carrageenin induced edema, acetic acid induced edema, and corton oil induced granuloma pouch in rats were examined. The analgesic effect of the GMGHT was investigated utilizing acetic acid induced writhing syndrome in mice. The antipyretic activity of the GMGHT was also investigated. The oral administration of GMGHT has been shown the anti-inflammatory activities in 1% carrageenin and acetic acid induced edema in rats. The GMGHT has been shown significant inhibitory effects on glanuloma and exudate formation in rats, especially the GMGHT (450 mg/kg) has the efficacy more than the GMGHT (150 mg/kg). The writhing syndromes induced by acetic acid in mice were inhibited, especially analgesic activity of the GMGHT (450 mg/kg) is similar to that of piroxicam and antipyretic activities were recognized in rats. In the present study, the GMGHT is indicated to have the anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic activities.

Water and chloroform/methanol extracts of the three local Malaysian snakehead fish, Channa striatus (striped snakehead), Channa micropeltes (giant snakehead) and Channa lucius (blotched snakehead) were evaluated for inhibitory activity in chronic inflammation, using cotton pellet granuloma test. Both water extracts of C. striatus and C. micropeltes showed marked inhibition of the transudative and proliferative components of chronic inflammation (42.9 and 31.2% respectively for C. striatus, 35.6 and 26.2% for C. micropeltes) when compared to those of mefenamic acid (25.1 and 21.3% respectively) and piroxicam (36.1 and 26.2% respectively). The chloroform/methanol extracts did not exhibit any anti-inflammatory effects. These results indicated that C. striatus has more anti-transudative and anti-proliferative activities than the extract of C. micropletes. C. lucius extract in contrast, did not inhibit these two components. This present study indicated the beneficial effects of the water extracts of C. striatus and C. micropeltes, but not C. lucius on chronic inflammation.

In oriental medicine, Geijibokryunghwan(GBH) was used to improvement various symptoms created by the thrombosis. We investigated the effects of an oriental medicinal prescriptions, Geijibokryunghwan (GBH) consisting of herbs of Cinnamomi Ramufus (Geiji; 桂枝), Poria cocos (Bokrung; 茯?), Moutan Cortex Radicis(Modanpi; 牧丹皮), Paeoniae Radix (Jakyak; 芍藥) and Persicae Semen (Doin; 桃仁) on tumor growth-inhibitory activity and cancer chempreventive activity in assays representing three maior stages of carcinogenesis. Cancer chempreventive agents include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) such as indomethacin, aspirin, piroxicam, and sulindac, all of which inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX). Effects of the GBH extracts on carrageenan-induced edema Inflammation using female (C57BL/6XC3H) Fl (B6C3Fl ) mice and tumorigenesis were examined. Finally, cyclooxygenase metabolites were determined after extracts treatment. These data suggest that GBH extracts merits investigation as a potential cancer chempreventive agent in humans.

To investigate the feasibility of developing a new tenoxicam plaster, the effects of vehicles and penetration enhancers on the in vitro permeation of tenoxicam from a pressure-sensititre adhesive (PSA) matrices across the dorsal hairless mouse skin were studied. Vehicles employed in this study were propylene glycol (PC)-oleyl alcohol (OAI), PG-oleic acid (OA), and diethylene glycol monoethyl ether (DCMI)-propylene glycol monolaurate (PCML) cosolvents with/without fatty acids. In this studys amines such as triethanolamine (TEA) and tromethamine (TM) were additionally used as a solubilized. Among PSAs used, $Duro-Tak^{\circledR}$87-2510 showed much higher release rate than either $Duro-Tak^{\circledR}$ 87-2100 or $Duro-Tak^{\circledR}$87-2196. The relatively high flux rate was obtained with the formulation of DCMI-PCML (40:60, v/v) with 3% OA and 5% TM, and the flux increased as a function of the dose;the initial flux up to 12 h was $4.98{\pm}1.38{\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/{\textrm{cm}^2}/h$ at the tenoxicam dose of $50{\;} mg/70{\;}{\textrm{cm}^2}$. This flux was much higher than that of a commercial piroxicam patch ($Trast^{\circledR}$) ($1.24{\pm}0.73{\;}{\mu\textrm{g}}/$\textrm{cm}^2/hr$) with almost only one-third that of the commercial patch. Therefore, these observations indicated that these composition of tenoxicam plaster may be practically applicable.

Objectives : To investigate the utilization patterns of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) among the elderly with osteoarthritis (OA) undergoing primary ambulatory care in Busan metropolitan city, Korea. Methods : OA patients, aged 65 years and over, were identified from the Korean National Health Insurance Review Agency drug prescription database. The subjects had at least one episode of claim for OA (ICD-10-CM: M15-M19) between August 1, 2000 and February 28, 2002. Trends in the determinations of NSAIDs utilization were identified using chi-squared tests for trend. Results : There were 47,711 osteoarthritic patients. The total number of visits by these patients was 177,443, with a total frequency for NSAID prescriptions of 214,952. Seventy-nine percent of the OA patients were female. NSAIDs were prescribed on 133,284 visits (75.1%) and the proportion of prescriptions was significantly increased with age. Only the proportion of visit when NSAIDs were prescribed decreased, from 65.1 to 43.5%, during the study period (p<0.001). However, the proportion of combined treatments with anti-ulcer drugs was increased. The use of NSAIDs injections was decreased. Of the individual NSAIDs, diclofenac (28.7% of total frequency of NSAID prescriptions), piroxicam (15.0%) and talniflumate (8.7%), were the most frequently prescribed. Among the NSAIDs prescribed OA visits, 45.7% used two or more NSAIDs. Conclusion : The total proportion of NSAIDs prescribed to the osteoarthritic patients was higher than in other studies. The decline in the use of NSAIDs during the study period, and the frequent selection of safer medications, such as combination therapy with anti-ulcer drug, may reflect the risk awareness of the use of NSAIDs.

Rat skin permeation of various nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) was investigated in vitro using Franz diffusion cell at $37^{\circ}C$. The effect of various skin permeation enhancers was also observed as a preliminary study of developing transdermal delivery systems of NSAIDs. Lipophilicity of NSAIDs was determined from thε partition coefficient (log P) in 1-octanol/water and 1-octanol/IPB mutual-saturated solutions. The solubility was determined in water, isotonic phosphate buffer (IPB), and propylene glycol (PG) at $37^{\circ}C$. The rat skin permeation rate of acetaminophen, piroxicam, and aceclofenac was almost negligible, although they were saturated in PG. Addition of 1 % permeation enhancer increased the permeation rate of ketoprofen, ketorolac, and diclofenac. However, the skin permeation rate of ibuprofen did not increase with the addition of various enhancers. Among the permeation enhancers testεd, oleic acid was the most effective for various NSAIDs. Based on the daily dose, lipophilicity, and the skin permeation ratε achieved in this study, ketoprofen and ketorolac seem to be the most promising drug candidates for transdermal delivery systems, especially when formulated with unsaturated fatty acids, such as oleic acid.

Objectives: The object of this study was to observe the in vitro anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory effects of six single aqueous herbal extracts-Quisqualis Fructus (QuF), Meliae Cortex (MeC), Arecae Semen (ArS), Crassirhizomae Rhizoma (CrR), Ulmi Pasta Semen(UlS), Torreyae Semen(ToS)- against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-activated Raw 264.7 cells. Methods: Anti-bacterial activities against S. aureus of aqueous extracts of QuF, MeC, ArS, CrR, UlS and ToS were detected using standard agar microdilution methods. In addition, the effects on the cell viability, prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$), nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ (TNF-${\alpha}$), interleukin (IL)-$1{\beta}$ and IL-6 productions of LPS activated Raw 264.7 cells were detected. The anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory effects were respectively compared with lincomycin and piroxicam. Results: Minimal Inhibition Concentration (MIC) of aqueous extracts of QuF, MeC, ArS, CrR, UlS and ToS against S. aureus was respectively detected $5.625{\pm}4.075$ (3.125~12.500), $0.332{\pm}0.273$ (0.098~0.782), $1.094{\pm}0.428$ (0.782~1.563), $2.969{\pm}2.096$ (0.782~6.250), $9.375{\pm}4.419$ (3.125~12.500)>25 mg/ml. MIC of lincomycin was detected as $0.469{\pm}0.297$ (0.195~0.782) ${\mu}g/ml$ at same conditions. In addition, $ED_{50}$ against LPS-induced cell viabilities and cytokine releases of QuF, MeC, ArS, CrR, UlS and ToS was as follows - Cell viability: 66.370, 2.908, 1.747, 259.553, 18.150 and 34.160 mg/ml; NO production: 389.486, 0.294, 0.138, 523.060, 45.363 and 49.327 mg/ml; $PGE_2$ production: 114.271, 0.223, 0.046, 243.078, 8.829 and 28.947 mg/ml; TNF-${\alpha}$ production: 406.288, 0.343, 0.123, 9404.227, 125.406 and 140.775 mg/ml; IL-$1{\beta}$ production: 117.178, 0.135, 0.019, 237.451, 7.923 and 19.418 mg/ml; IL-6 production: 31.261, 0.105, 0.055, 128.434, 2.290 and 3.745 mg/ml. ED50 of piroxicam against LPS-induced cell viabilities, NO, $PGE_2$, TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-$1{\beta}$ and IL-6 were detected as 35.179, 6.552, 1.162, 7.273, 7.101 and $5.044{\mu}g/ml$, respectively at same conditions. Conclusions: All six single aqueous herbal extracts showed anti-bacterial effects against S. aureus, in the order of MeC, ArS, CrR, QuF and UlS aqueous extracts except for ToS; they did not showed any anti-bacterial effects (MIC>25 mg/ml). They also showed anti-inflammatory effects against LPS-activated Raw 264.7 cells in the order of ArS, MeC, UlS, ToS, QuF and CrR aqueous extracts. It means that the ArS and MeC will be showed favorable potent anti-bacterial and related anti-inflammatory effects.

개흉술후 동통으로 발생할 수 있는 술후 합병증을 예방하고 동통을 경감시킬 수 있는 방법중의 하나인 마약성 진통제의 정주요법으로 술후 괄목할만한 진통효과를 보았다. 총 30명의 후측방 개흉술 및 늑골절제를 시행받은 환자를 대상으로 통상적인 진통제의 근주를 시행한 환자 10명을 I 군으로, 경막외 신경차단을 시행한 환자 10명을 II군으로 그리고 환자 자가조절에 의한 지속적 정주 요법을 시행한 환자 10명 III군으로 구분하여 조사하였다. 연구 결과는 혈압, 심박수, 호흡수 및 동맥혈 가스 분석상 세 군간에 유의한 차이는 없었으나 II군과 III 군이 I군보다 기침 및.심호흡을 현저하게 잘하였다. 술후 2시간 후의 일회호흡량(tidal volume)의 회복률은 I군이 58.2$\pm$5.9%, II군이 77.9$\pm$ 11.7%, III군이 84.1 :5.8%로, III군은 II군보다, II군은 I군보다 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 술후 2,8시간 후에 실시한 노력성 폐활량(forced vital capacity)의 회복률은 II군 및 III군 은 비슷하였으나, 각각 I군보다는 통계학적으로 유의하게 호전되었다(p< 0.05). 수술후의 통증은 II, III군 이 I군에 비하여 현저하게 감소하였으며, 수술측 부위의 운동도 원할하였고, 진통제 투여량에서도 I군보 다 감소 소견을 보였으며 수술후 회복도 보다 용이 하였다. 결론적으로 마약성 진통제의 지속적 정주요법 은 술후 폐기능 회복과 동통 완화 효과가 우수하였으며, 경막외 신경차단법과 비슷한 결과를 보였으나 수 술직후 2시간째의 폐기능 회복률에 있어서는 마약성 진통제의 정주요법이 경막외 신경차단법 보다 다소 효과가 좋았다..0%로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 조직형별 5년 생존율은 편평상피세포암이 43.1%, 선암이 23.3%, 거대세포암이 30.3%였다(p>0.05).치료법이며 앞으로 장기적인 추적검사가 필요하리라 생각된다.ricuspid valve pouch 19례), 우심실 유출로폐쇄(4례), 아급성심내막염(1례) 및 동반질환을 부가적인 수술적응으로 삼았다. 6. 수술후 관찰결과 사망률은 없었고, 잔존 심실중격결손증도 없었다. 이상의 결과로 경삼첨판륜 절개방법(TATV)은 삼침판맹낭을 가지고 있는 막성주위형 심실중격결손증 (PMVSD) 수술시 좋은 방법이며, 또한 막성주위형 심실중격결손증(PMVSD)에서 수술시 시야를 좋게하고 수술후 삼첨판폐쇄부전에 악영향을 미치지 않는 결과로 안전하고 효과적인 방법으로 사료된다.량치가 뜻하는 의 미는 서로 달랐으며, 암조직내에서 대조조직내보다 CYFRA 21-1 치가 더 낮게 나온 것은 암세포내 에서는 세 포질 성분의 고갈로 인한 것으로 추정되며 암세포의 활동성과는 무관한 것으로 판단된다. EGF-R은 세포벽내에 존재하는 수용체로서 암세포의 증식에 따라 증가하는 양상을 보이며 대조조직보다는 암세포에서 유의한 증가를 보이는 것은 종양 증식과 암표지자로서 의의가 있는 것으로 판단된다.것이 수술 결과를 좋게 하는 방법이라고 사료된다.료의 축적을 통한 신생대동맥근위부 확쏭 진행여부에 주의를 기울여야하겠다.록 mosaic 형태로 외래유전자가 발현되었지만 대조구에서 87.0% (26/30개) 배반포기가 $\beta$-Gal 활력을 보인 반면, G418 처리구에서는 모든 배반포기가 $\beta$-Gal 활력을 보였다 (P<0.05). 그러나 대조구 및 G418 처리구의
