Objective: This study was undertaken to examine the reliability of disease mechanism diagnosis, estimate the disease mechanism items of questionnaires and inquire about the relation of disease mechanisms to the oriental OB & GY diagnosis program. Questionnaires and abridged questionnaires were used for the object diagnosis of oriental medicine in the dept of Oriental OB & GY, Oriental Medical Hospital of Dong-Eui University. Methods: We analyzed the results of questionnaires about 1706 outpatients who had OB & GY disease in the Oriental Medical Hospital of Dong-Eui University from April 2000 to March 2004. Results: 1. The reliability of Oriental OB & GY questionnaires between $90\%$ and $95\%$ were 9 cases, between $85\%$ and $90\%$ were 3 cases, and under $85\%$were 3 cases. Abridged questionnaires were lower than original questionnaires, but 12 cases of a total 15 cases of disease mechanism were above $85\%$. Therefore, both abridged questionnaires and original questionnaires had similar results. 2. Abridged questionnaires were usually lower than existing questionnaires in the comparison of disease mechanism output frequency and that of disease mechanism average score. Therefore, the results of abridged questionnaires seemed to be poorer than those of existing questionnaires, but a great difference wasn't seen. 3. Disease mechanism that was over $50\%$ in the rate of pure question per disease mechanism was 10 cases $(66.7\%)$. Disease mechanism that contributed to producing disease mechanism result and in which pure question was over relevance calculation 0.9 was also 10 cases $(66.7\%)$. In abridged questionnaires, the duplication of questions per disease mechanism Was decreased, the rate of pure questions was increased, and the number of related disease mechanisms was decreased by abridgment of the questionnaires' questions. 4. The calculation of disease mechanism went with the increase of the duplication of questions in many cases, but Tam­Umhe, Kihe-Hyule, Kihe-Umhe, and Shin-Tam went with disease mechanism in many cases despite no duplication of questions. Conclusions: About the reliability of Oriental OB & GY questionnaires, 12 of a total 15 cases of disease mechanism were above $85\%$; therefore both abridged questionnaires and original questionnaires had similar results.

Purpose: We intended to observe the correlations between Primary dysmenorrhea severity and Questionnaires for Blood Stasis Pattern. Methods: After initial approval by Kyung-Hee University Oriental Medical Hospital Institutional Review Board of Clinical Trials, volunteers for the clinical trial were recruited. We selected the 52 primary dysmenorrhea patients by the screening tests (clinical examination and inquiry). The severity of dysmenorrhea was evaluated by VAS (Visual Analog Scale), VRS (Verbal Rating Scale) & MVRS (Multidimensional Verbal Rating Scale). The severity of Blood Stasis was evaluated by Questionnaires for Blood Stasis Pattern. For statistics, we used Spearman's rho correlations, SPSS 13.0 for windows. Results: In case of VAS, though two items (眼瞼下靑紫, 便黑) of Questionnaires for Blood Stasis Pattern were correlated, total score & discriminant function score of Questionnaires for Blood Stasis Pattern were not correlated. In case of VRS, though two items (小腹痛, 夜間痛) of Questionnaires for Blood Stasis Pattern were correlated, total score & discriminant function score of Questionnaires for Blood Stasis Pattern were not correlated. In case of MVRS, though one items (久痺症) of Questionnaires for Blood Stasis Pattern were correlated, total score & discriminant function score of Questionnaires for Blood Stasis Pattern were not correlated. Conclusion: Though the results showed partial correlation of Primary dysmenorrhea severity and Questionnaires for Blood Stasis Pattern, we need further study after improvement and complementation of Questionnaires for Blood Stasis Pattern.

Objectives : This study examined the reliability of disease mechanism diagnosis, to evaluate items of questionnaires and inquire about the relationships between disease mechanisms and 'diagnosis program' questionnaires used for the objective diagnosis of Oriental medicine in the department of Oriental OB&GYN, Oriental Medical Hospital of Dongeui University. Method : We analyzed the results of questionnaires from 3504 outpatients of OB&GYN disease at the Oriental Medical Hospital of Dongeui University from April 2000 to April 2005. Results & Conclusions : 1. The research questionnaire had 188 questions, the summary questionnaire 137, and the diagnosis questionnaire 80. 2. The reliability of all questionnaires shows above 90% in deficiency of qi, deficiency of Yin, insufficiency of Yang coldness heat syndrome liver and spleen kidney in all, 8 case disease mechanisms. These are higher in the diagnosis questionnaires than in the research questionnaires and the summary questionnaires, except for kidney disease mechanism. 3. Cronbach a of the questionnaires decreased, especially blood deficiency, phlegm, heat syndrome, and insufficiency of Yang; these 4 case disease mechanisms were lower than 0.6. 4. For degree of correspondence of meeting points, both. the diagnosis and the summary questionnaires were above 80% with the exception of the 2 case disease mechanisms heart and blood deficiency. The meeting points of both the diagnosis and research questionnaires were above 80% in the to case disease mechanisms deficiency of qi blood stasis deficiency of Yim insufficiency of Yang damp dryness liver spleen kidney phlegm. 5. The change in the result values of questionnaires was a decreased level of deficiency of qi heat syndrome phlegm damp kidney and raised level of coldness heart disorder of qi dryness 6. The computation degree of disease mechanism in DSOM(r) D.1.1 was much lower on phlegm deficiency of qi heat syndrome disorder of blood, somewhat lower on insufficiency of Yang and higher on coldness than in the two different questionnaires.

Objectives: Obesity is associated with a high mortality risk and impairment in health-related quality of life (HRQOL). The aim of this article is to examine the impact of weight loss on HRQOL and which questionnaires sensitively reflect weight loss effects on HRQOL. Methods: PubMed, Scopus, Research Information Sharing Service, and Korean Studies Information Service System were searched for the studies related to weight loss and HRQOL, published from 2009 to 2018. A total of 28 studies were eligible for inclusion. HRQOL results after weight loss from selected studies were classified and reported according to questionnaires. Results: Twenty-two studies reported statistically significant HRQOL improvements after weight loss and especially, all of studies with weight loss of more than 5% reported HRQOL improvements. HRQOL questionnaires were classified as generic, obesity-related and depression questionnaires. The most commonly used questionnaires were Short-Form health survey 36 (SF-36), Impact of Weight on Quality Life-Lite (IWQOL-Lite) and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) respectively. SF-36 had a tendency to reflect physical health. IWQOL-Lite score was tended to be changed sensitively according to weight change. Depression questionnaires including BDI reported improvement of depression while mental aspects of SF-36 not changed in same studies. Conclusions: Improvements of HRQOL were noted in studies with weight loss of more than 5%. The main questionnaires for evaluating HRQOL were SF-36, IWQOL-Lite and BDI. It is suggested to use these questionnaires together for evaluating multiple aspects of impact of weight loss on HRQOL.

Objectives The purpose of this study was to survey the current status of use of questionnaires for evaluating Yin Deficiency Syndrome and analyze the comparison with questionnaires. Methods We searched online medical databases to find domestic/international articles using questionnaires for evaluating intensity of Yin Deficiency Syndrome. Finally 18 articles were collected to be reviewed and they were classified according to their subjects and type of the Questionnaires. Results Out of 18 articles, 11 were based on the Yin-Deficiency Questionnaire (Yin-DQ) and the others used various questionnaires, except the Yin-DQ, for assessing Yin Deficiency Syndrome. In Korea the Yin-DQ was used widely but in foreign countries, for instance, China, Taiwan, a variety of questionnaires were used. Conclusion The Yin-DQ had a wider use in assessing Yin Deficiency Syndrome, but cut-off score for diagnostic criteria was not defined. Therefore, we decided that the YDS (Yin Deficiency Scale) with cut-off score was more suitable for screening patients with Yin Deficiency Syndrome. Moreover, we suggested that additional studies on using the YDS and developing more appropriate diagnostic tool should be conducted to improve diagnostic objectivity.

Several self-administered dietary assessment questionnaires have recently been developed, validated, and used in nutritional epidemiological and clinical studies in Japan. This article describes recent evidence on development and validation of them. After extensive search of published articles both in English and Japanese languages, we identified 25 articles on 13 questionnaires of which validation studies have existed. Number of foods/menus assessed varied from 31 to 169 according to questionnaires. Eleven questionnaires were food frequency type, either with fixed portion size or semiquantitative, and two diet history types. All the 13 questionnaires were validated against intakes assessed with dietary record or 24-hour recall, and only two with biomarkers. Number of subjects used in the studies was between 23 and 350. All the studies used adult subjects. In the studies with dietary record or recall, the correlation coefficient for or orgy intake was between 0.22 and 0.65 (median = 0.44). Median correlation coefficient for nutrients was between 0.21 and 0.61. In the studies with biomarkers, serum marine-origin n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and carotenes, and urinary potassium seemed useful biomarkers. In conclusion, recent progress of this field in Japan is remarkable. But more research is needed for validation studies with biomarkers, and the development and validation of questionnaires for children and elderly subjects. (J Community Nutrition 5(2) : 83∼92,2003)
