Medicinal uses of edible and other plants for prevention and cure of obesity and overweight associated metabolic and mental health problems have since long been known to scholars and practitioners of Ayurvedic and other traditionally known system of medicine. Modernized versions of numerous edible plant derived formulations mentioned in ancient Ayurvedic texts are at present some of the most popular, or best selling, herbal remedies in India and numerous other countries suffering from double burden of diseases caused by malnutrition and obesity. Preclinical and clinical information now available on edible plants and their bioactive constituents justify traditionally known medicinal uses of products derived from them for prevention and cure of obesity associated type-2 diabetes, psychopathologies and other health problems. Such information now available on a few edible Ayurvedic plants and their formulations and suggesting that their stress response regulating effects are involved in their broad spectrums of bioactivity profiles are summarized in this communication. Implications of recent physiological and pharmacological observations made with numerous phytochemicals isolated from edible plants for better understanding of traditionally known medicinal uses of herbal remedies are also pointed out.

Objective : to investigate the modalities and treatments with atopic dermatitis. Methods : We made up a questionnaire consisting of symptoms, birth, family history, previous treatments of atopic dermatitis. We interviewed mild to severe 60 atopic dermatitis patients with questionnaire, from August to October, 2008 who were participating in clinical trials of Kyunghee University East-west neo medical center. Results : The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1. 49(81.7%) out of 60 patients reported previous or current use of medical treatment, and most common type of medical treatment was topical corticosteroid (95.9%). Oral antihistamine (61.2%), oral corticosteroid (61.2%) were also commonly used. 2. 31(51.7%) out of 60 patients reported previous or current use of oriental medical treatment, and most common type of oriental medical treatment was herbal medicine(100%). Acupuncture (41.9%), Herbal external supplements (22.6%) were also used. 3. 36(60.11% ) out of 60 patients reported previous or current use of folk remedies, and the most common type of folk remedy was extract of tree(Mokcho-ak)(75.0%). Aloe(61.1%), Charcoal(22.2%) were also commonly used. Conclusion : It seems the frequency of folk remedies used were related to severity of AD. However, there were no significant difference between medical treatment and oriental medical treatment.

Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with storage, voiding, and post-micturition reduce quality of life and cause mental health problems. In traditional medicine, Baliao points have been empirically used to treat urinary system diseases. In this review, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) using sacral acupuncture on Baliao points with sham treatment, other remedies, or other acupoints were retrieved from 8 electronic databases up to June 2021. Sixteen RCTs met the inclusion criteria. The quality of the included studies was assessed using a risk-of-bias (ROB) tool. Most of the evaluation indicators used in the included RCTs showed that sacral acupuncture had a significant therapeutic effect compared with the sham control intervention groups, and other remedies. However, all studies using acupoints (other than the Baliao points) as a control intervention had a "high" ROB and only reported secondary processed information, making it difficult to evaluate the efficacy of sacral acupuncture treatment for LUTS. No serious adverse effects were reported for sacral acupuncture, and only a low number of minor side effects were observed. These results suggest that sacral acupuncture could be considered as an alternative to existing treatments, with the added benefit of low cost. Large-scale, long-term RCTs are required in the future.

Peripheral facial palsy generally results from damage to the facial nerve. As facial asymmetry is observed, it accompanies not only functional problems but also psychological and social difficulties. Medical institutions treat most patients, however, there are still patients who rely on invasive methods by unqualified practitioners for fear of sequelae. This case describes a 61-year-old woman who experienced facial palsy twice. She visited our hospital with skin damage after folk patch therapy for her facial palsy. Combined Korean medicine treatment was administered during treatment period. After treatments, the symptoms of facial palsy and skin lesions improved. This case showed that Korean Medicine was efficacious in improving symptoms of facial palsy with damaged skin caused by folk patch therapy. Education and awareness of uncontrolled invasive treatments for facial palsy are needed.

The two-fluid model is widely used to describe two-phase flows in complex systems such as nuclear reactors. Although the two-phase flow was successfully simulated, the standard two-fluid model suffers from an ill-posed nature. There are several remedies for the ill-posedness of the one-dimensional (1D) two-fluid model; among those, artificial viscosity is the focus of this study. Some previous works added artificial diffusion terms to both mass and momentum equations to render the two-fluid model well-posed and demonstrated that this method provided a numerically converging model. However, they did not consider mass conservation, which is crucial for analyzing a closed reactor system. In fact, the total mass is not conserved in the previous models. This study improves the artificial viscosity model such that the 1D incompressible two-fluid model is well-posed, and the total mass is conserved. The water faucet and Kelvin-Helmholtz instability flows were simulated to test the effect of the proposed artificial viscosity model. The results indicate that the proposed artificial viscosity model effectively remedies the ill-posedness of the two-fluid model while maintaining a negligible total mass error.

This is a comparative and analytical study which comprises of the analysis of the rules of the buyer's remedies where the seller delivers defective goods of four legal systems; Directive, CISG, English law and Korean law. In light of threefold main purposes of this study, it firstly attempts to describe and analyze the remedy provisions of Directive in a comparative way in order to provide legal advice to the sellers who plans to enter into English consumer markets. It shows that the two tier remedial system under Directive is not much different from the other jurisdictions, except where the right of rescission under Directive is absolute in a sense that it does not require a certain degree of seriousness of defect. Secondly, the study compares the rules of one jurisdiction with those of other jurisdictions and evaluates the rules in light of the discipline of comparative law the basic question of which is whether a solution from one jurisdiction may facilitate the systematic development and reform of another jurisdiction. It proves the followings; (1) the reluctance and uncertainty in English law of ordering specific performance based on the discretionary power does not reflect the parties' preference because the order is either uncertain or rather negative where the purchase of substitute goods elsewhere is not a satisfactory solution in many cases; (2) the position in Korean law which has no limitation on the right to require substitute goods is likely unfair in commercial sales, but justified in consumer sales; (3) the right of termination or reduction under Directive which is subject to the applicability of the right to require repair or substitute goods seems to be contrary to the consumer's preference where the defective delivery destroys the basis of trust in the quality of the seller's performance; (4) the absolute right of termination under Directive and English law seems crucial in consumer sales because they are often inferior to commercial sellers in terms of information and bargaining power; (5) the right of reduction as a self-help remedy which is absent in English law emphasizes its usefulness. Thirdly, it finds that, where CISG is deemed to fail to unify different rules on the right to require specific performance between Civil and Common law, it is attempted once again in Directive and notwithstanding their hostility to awarding the right to require specific performance in English law, Regulations 2002 expressively stipulates such right.

This study aims to research on the actual state of the ways that the aged people live in Seoul use intentionally or unintentionally to maintain in their health. The aged people selected randomly for the study are 541 men and 902 women who are all more than 65 years old. This survey carried out from April to May in 1980. The results of this study are summed up as follows: 1. The main means of making a living engage was agriculture with the per cent of 57. 3 and next was commerce (11.9%). 2. As for their staple foods, the majority of them eat mixed food of rice and barley, and the rest eat rice or minor-grain mixed rice. As subsidiary foods, vegetables are the most common side dishes (68.9%) and see-weeds (6.7%) are taken by the minority of them. 3. Most of them (74.6%) frequently or occasionally take special health foods to maintaing their health. The most common health food turned out to be tonic liquor to men, while honey to women. 4. The majority of them(23.2% of men and 45.5% women) refrain from drinking and smoking. 5. 39.5 per cent of men and 25.5 per cent of wome) take light exercise such as going up hill and walking. 6. The majority of them undergo routine health check with the per cent of 10.8 or occasioanal health check with the 42.9. As medical treatment, many of them(45.9%) take Chinese remedies, western remedies(39.1%) and folk remedies (15.0%). 7. Many of them (66.0%) feel subjective symptoms about some geriatric diseases such as neuralgia, hypertension and cough. 8. Many of them (63.2%) free from mental trouble, while 17.7 per cent of them appeal to no job to do, 10.0 per cent of alienation and 9.1 per cent of domestic troubles. 9. Their subjective judgements of their secrets of health and longevity attach more importance to leading a regular life. 10. Most of them want to be served appropriate medical care, rest place, health consultations, etc. All these results reveal that health and longevity of the aged people are maintained by necessary cares and efforts, not by accident nor by apathy. It is thus highly desired tha tmany studies, enlightments and nationwide support about this problem be carried out in future.

동종요법은 1796년 독일인 의사인 S. 하네만에 의해 제창된, 서양의 현대의학과는 다른, 서양의 전통의학이며, 기본 이념은 유기체 내의 자연치유력의 존재를 전제로 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 먼저 동종요법 기본이론을 서술하고 이에 상당하는 한의학의 기본원리를 비교 고찰함으로써 차후 여러 가지 종류의 자연요법연구에 기초자료를 제공하고, 하네만의 동종요법과 거의 비슷한 연대에 제창된 동무 이제마의 체질의학이 심신(心身), 즉 정신적 상태와 육체적 질병과의 상호 관계성을 언급한 질병관, 약제의 운용정신 등등의 여러 측면에서 그 유사점과 차이점을 비교 고찰하고자 하였다. 1. 동종요법은 생기론(生氣論)과 기계론(機械論)이라는 대립되는 학문적 전승구조로 부터 잉태된 전일의학으로서 서구 현대의학의 골간을 이루는 뉴튼물리학의 기계론적 패러다임과 상위(相違)되며, 그 이론적 성립과 성장배경에서 직 간접적으로 동양학문의 상적 배경과 한의학 이론이 변용된 상태로 흡수된 자연의학(自然醫學)의 일종이다. 2. 동종요법 약제체질론은 약제반응에 따라 질병증상과 개인의 체질적 특성을 직접 일대일 대응시킨 소략한 체질론으로 규율성을 갖춘 체계가 부족하나 심신상관론(心身相關論), 선천적인 체질결정론 등의 기본이론이 사상체질론과 동일하며, 단일 약물에 대한 세심한 개인특성의 연구는 중경입법과 사상의학의 정신에 부합된다고 할 수 있다. 3. 동종요법은 병증의 변화를 체질화하여 선택적 친화성에 따른 약제별로 다양한 유형으로 구분하고, 이에 비하여 사상의학은 병증의 변화를 자신의 체질적 조건하에서 발생하는 체질병증으로 설명하고 있어 차이가 있다.

2019년 1월과 8월 영업비밀보호법과 산업기술보호법의 각각의 개정이 있었다. 이들 법률의 개정은 기술 보호에 크게 기여할 것으로 보인다. 그러나 민·형사적 구제와 관련하여 몇 가지 더 보완되어야 할 사항이 있다. 민사구제 분야와 관련하여 영업비밀보호법과 산업기술보호법의 경우 3배 손해배상 도입에도 불구하고, 입증자료제출과 관련된 규정은 정비가 되지 못한 상태이다. 따라서 입증자료의 제출 범위 확대, 손해액 산정을 위한 서류인 경우의 제출 강제, 서류제출 명령을 따르지 않는 경우 상대방의 주장을 진실한 것으로 인정하는 등 개정 특허법의 수준으로 정비될 필요가 있다. 한편 산업기술보호법은 손해배상규정이 도입되었지만, 손해액 추정규정이 없는 상태이므로, 일실이익·이익액·로열티 상당액에 대한 추정규정이 필요하다. 형사구제와 관련하여서는 영업비밀보호법과 산업기술보호법 모두 형벌의 상향화는 이루어졌지만 양형규정이 정비되지 못하고 있으므로 이의 정비가 필요하다. 또한 최근의 기술유출은 개인의 일탈을 넘어 조직적인 유출로 확대되고 있음에도 불구하고 이에 가담한 기업 등 관련 법인의 처벌에 대한 중과(重課)와 관련하여 개정이 필요하다. 일본과 미국의 경우 법인 중과 규정을 두고 있다는 점을 참고하여야 할 것이다. 또한 몰수제도와 관련하여서는 범죄수익은닉규제법에서는 방위산업기술은 국내유출도 몰수의 대상으로 하고 있는 반면에, 영업비밀과 산업기술은 '국외'유출만 몰수의 대상으로 하고 있으므로 이의 개정도 필요하다.
