Symplocarpus renifolius, a folk medicinal herb has been used for treatment of hypertension, rheumatis, tetanus, ringworm, cough and epilepsy in north and middle part of Korea. The extracts from the root of S. renifolius were evaluated for antibacterial, antihypertensive and analgesic activities. The crude extract of the root of S. renifolius showed antibacterial activity against Gram(+) bacteria and dose dependantly decrease the blood pressure of SHR. The chloroform extract of the roots of S. renifolius was also exibits analgesic action in mice.

Asthma is considered a chronic inflammatory airway disease. Mounting evidence reports that patients with asthma are at significantly higher risk of developing communicable diseases such as invasive pneumococcal disease, Haemophilus influenza, varicella, measles, pertussis and tetanus. While impaired innate immunity may play a role in increased risk of developing these infections, suboptimal adaptive immune responses have also been reported to play a role in asthmatic subjects with regard to increased risk of infections. This review discusses the currently underrecognized immunological effect of asthma on antibody to vaccines and recommends that clinicians be aware of less optimal antibody production in response to vaccines in subjects with asthma.

목 적 : 3가 항원 DTaP 백신을 3회 기초 접종 받은 건강한 국내 영아에서 면역원성 및 안전성을 평가하고자 하였다. 방 법 : 2004년 4월부터 2005년 4월까지 5개 연구 참여 대학병원에서 제태기간 32주 이상에서 태어난 건강한 영아에게 생후 2, 4, 6개월에 3가 항원 DTaP 백신($Infanrix^{(R)}$)을 대퇴부 전외측에 접종하여 접종 전 혈청과 3차 접종 1개월 후 혈청에서 디프테리아, 파상풍, PT, FHA, PRN 항원에 대한 항체를 측정하여 면역원성을 평가하였고, 접종 후 3일 내에 발생이 예상되는 국소 및 전신 이상반응을 적극 관찰하였고 3주내에 발생한 모든 이상반응을 관찰하여 안전성 평가를 실시하였다. 한편, 2가 항원 DTaP 백신을 접종 받은 14명을 대조군으로 설정하여 연구군과 동일한 방법으로 면역원성을 평가하여 비교하였다. 결 과 : 60명에서 실시된 연구군의 면역원성 평가에서 디프테리아, 파상풍, FHA, PRN 항원에 대한 항체 양전율은 100%이었고, PT 항원에 대한 항체 양전율은 98.3%이었다. 한편 대조군에서 디프테리아, 파상풍, PT, FHA 항원에 대한 항체 양전율은 100%이었으나 PRN 항원에 대한 항체 양전율은 50%이었다. 147명에서 확인된 이상반응 평가에서 연구 기간동안 연구 백신과 인과관계가 있는 중증 이상반응은 없었고, 3일 내에 특이한 치료 및 처치가 없이 자연 소멸되는 국소 및 전신 이상반응만 관찰되었으며 접종 차수별 이상반응의 증가도 없었다. 결 론 : 이상의 결과를 볼 때에 3가 항원 DTaP 백신($Infanrix^{(R)}$)은 국내 영아 기초 접종에 유효한 백신임을 확인할 수 있었고, 국내에서 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 2가 DTaP 백신에 비해 PRN항원에 대한 항체의 면역원성이 높은 이점이 있음을 확인하였다. 그러나 향후 더욱 많은 대상을 통한 연구가 이루어져 이런 결과를 재입증하여야 할 것이고, 추가 접종에 대한 동일한 연구도 요구된다.

우리나라 질병관리본부는 전염병 예방을 목적으로 국가 필수 예방접종을 정하여 특정 시기에 접종하도록 권장하는데, 대부분의 예방접종이 만 2세 전에 집중되어 있어 필수 예방접종만 투여 받더라도 영아는 14~20회 정도 접종을 받게 된다. DPT (diphtheria, pertussis, and tetanus) 는 제2군 법정전염병인 디프테리아, 백일해, 파상풍 예방을 목적으로 생후 2, 4, 6, 18개월 영아에게 근육주사하게 된다. 근육주사 시 주사 바늘 천자 및 약물 주입에 따른 통증이 유발되는데, 본 연구는DPT 예방접종을 받는 2, 4, 6개월 영아 49명을 대상으로 예방접종 시 유발되는 통증경감을 위해 국소마취용 크림인 EMLA (eutectic mixture of local anaesthetics)와 냉각 스프레이의 통증경감 효과를 조사하였다. 연구 결과 EMLA 적용군이 대조군과 냉각 스프레이 적용군에 비하여 주사 전후 맥박수와 산소포화도에 변화가 거의 없어 생리적 반응에서 통증경감 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 EMLA 적용 군이 통증반응에 대한 생리적 변수, 즉 맥박수와 산소포화도를 정상범주로 유지하는데 있어서 냉각스프레이보다 더 효과적인 중재로 검증되었으므로 향후 DPT 예방접종 시 EMLA 크림의 적용 가능성을 시사하는 바이다.

Purpose: Pertussis bacteria have many pathogenic and virulent antigens and severe adverse reactions have occurred when using inactivated whole-cell pertussis vaccines. Therefore, inactivated acellular pertussis (aP) vaccines and genetically detoxified recombinant pertussis (rP) vaccines are being developed. The aim of this study was to assess the safety profile of a novel rP vaccine under development in comparison to commercial diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis (DTaP) vaccines. Materials and Methods: The two positive control DTaP vaccines (two- and tri-components aP vaccines) and two experimental recombinant DTaP (rDTaP) vaccine (two- and tri-components aP vaccines adsorbed to either aluminum hydroxide or purified oat beta-glucan) were used. Temperature histamine sensitization test (HIST), indirect Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell cluster assay, mouse-weight-gain (MWG) test, leukocytosis promoting (LP) test, and intramuscular inflammatory cytokine assay of the injection site performed for safety assessments. Results: HIST results showed absence of residual pertussis toxin (PTx) in both control and experimental DTaP vaccine groups, whereas in groups immunized with tri-components vaccines, the experimental tri-components rDTaP absorbed to alum showed an ultra-small amount of 0.0066 IU/mL. CHO cell clustering was observed from 4 IU/mL in all groups. LP tests showed that neutrophils and lymphocytes were in the normal range in all groups immunized with the two components vaccine. However, in the tri-components control DTaP vaccine group, as well as two- and tri-components rDTaP with beta-glucan group, a higher monocyte count was observed 3 days after vaccination, although less than 2 times the normal range. In the MWG test, both groups showed changes less than 20% in body temperature and body weight before the after the final immunizations. Inflammatory cytokines within the muscle at the injection site on day 3 after intramuscular injection revealed no significant response in all groups. Conclusion: There were no findings associated with residual PTx, and no significant differences in both local and systemic adverse reactions in the novel rDTaP vaccine compared to existing available DTaP vaccines. The results suggest that the novel rDTaP vaccine is safe.

Angioedema is a localized transient swelling of sudden onset in the face, lips, tongue, hand, feet, respiratory system and gasteointestinal system. Angioedema is classified as allergy, hereditary, idiopathic or induced by medication as like aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent, opiates, antibioics and angiotensin-coverting enzyme. Arisaematis Rhizoma Ingestion grows up every place in Korea, dries humidity and eliminates engorgement. so Arisaematis Rhizoma Ingestion was used to paralytic, hemiplegia, bell's palsy, tetanus. but Arisaematis Rhizoma Ingestion is toxic, can not be used pregnant women. We experienced a case of angioedema induced by Arisaematis Rhizoma Ingestion in a 52-years-old male patient who bited a Arisaematis Rhizoma Ingestion. We treated the patient based on traditional oriental medicine case report. As a result, the symtoms disappeard rapidly.

To study the effects of ethanol extract of the Rhodiola Sachalinensis on the anti-oxidation and blood pressure and skeletal muscles contractility in rats. The ethanol extracts and fractions of Rhodiola Sachalinensis were determinated the anti-oxidation effects by DPPH(1,1-dipenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) method and comparing with the BHA (Butylated hydroxyanisole) and AA(Ascorbic acid). The gastrocnemius and soleus muscle contractility were observed by stimulating the sciatic nerve with electricity after affusing stomach with ethanol extract of the 200 mg/kg dosage of Rhodiola Sachalinensis for 4 weeks. The ethanol extract of the Rhodiola Sachalinensis could shorten latent period, increase maximal contractive extent and time and relaxative time at the twitch and complete tetanus of gastrocnemius and soleus muscles. The ethanol extract of the Rhodiola Sachalinensis shows high anti-oxidation effect and can enhance skeletal muscles contractility in rats.

Objectives: This study was carried out to investigate whether a prescription's composition varies according to the disease being caused by wind, which is one of the migratory pathogenic factors. Methods: An initial database and binary matrix of Pungmun in Dongui-Bogam, including its herbs and prescription, was constructed. With this data, a network map about wind stroke, arthralgia, acute arthritis, and tetanus in Dongui-Bogam was constructed. Results: Analysis of the network map about Pungmun in Dongui-Bogam revealed that the complete prescription network has more isolated nodes than does each disease's network map. Conclusions: The composition of prescriptions in Dongui-Bogam Pungmun differ according to the disease being caused by wind.
