본 증례에서는 한방치료를 받은 두 명의 골수이형성증후군 환자를 통하여 골수이형성증후군에 대한 한방치료의 효과를 보여주고자 하였다. 골수이형성증후군은 골수의 증식과 구성 세포들의 이형성, 비효율적인 조혈을 특징으로 하는 골수의 악성 종양이다. 현재까지 골수이형성증후군에 대한 완벽한 치료법은 없으며 골수이형성증후군의 증상을 경감시키거나 급성 골수성 백혈병으로의 진행을 막는 목적으로 치료가 이뤄지고 있다. 첫 번째 환자는 1차성 골수이형성증후군 환자로 2011년 1월부터 2016년 현재까지 꾸준히 침 치료 및 한약치료를 받고 있다. 두 번째 환자는 난소암 치료를 위한 항암화학요법의 부작용으로 생긴 2차성 골수이형성증후군 환자로 2010년 10월부터 4년간 꾸준한 한약 복용 및 3번의 입원치료를 받은 환자이다. 침 치료, 한약 치료와 함께 환자들의 상태를 평가하기 위해 정기적인 혈액검사가 이루어졌다. 골수이형성증후군 진단 후 두 달에 한 번씩 수혈을 받으며 수혈 의존 경향을 보이던 첫 번째 환자는 한방치료 후 단 두 번의 수혈밖에 받지 않았고 급성골수성백혈병으로 진행하지도 않았으며 건강한 몸 상태를 유지하고 있다. 두 번째 환자 역시 꾸준한 한방치료를 통해 비교적 좋은 삶의 질을 유지하며 기본 체력 또한 많이 상승되면서 골수 이식을 받을 정도까지 몸 상태가 개선되었다. 본 증례보고는 마땅한 치료법이 없는 골수이형성증후군 환자들에게 한방 치료가 특별한 부작용 없이 환자들이 호소하는 증상을 개선하고 기본적인 체력 증진에 도움이 되며 급성 골수성 백혈병으로의 진행을 예방하는 동시에 기존의 보존적 치료법의 효과를 극대화 시키는 효과가 있음을 보여주는 증례라고 하겠다.

Below are the indications that cultural events in traditional Korean medicine nationwide give to the prospective 2013 DongUiBoGam World traditional Alternative Medicine Expo, especially to the se lection of the Expo's site. If the DongUiBoGam Expo is held as outdoor event, it can secure merits of current local council events' advantages: linking lived experiences to natural and historical resources. As in case of the EXOM and Hanghang EXPO that are held as indoor activivies in metropolitan area, if held the DongUiBoGam Expo can secure easily large-scale academic activities and health lectures. Thus, the key point for the DongUiBoGam Expo's success will he how to combine the good points of currently-held cultural outdoor and indoor activities in the field of traditional Korean medicine nationwide.

This paper treats with transitional development of medico-hygienical situation in district Yanbian along with the evolution in specific field of medicine. This work is particularly important in shaping TKM identity as TCM embraces Chao medicine asserting it as one included in TCM. This research deals with themes of migration of Chao minorities to this territory and their medico-hygienical situation. Lifted bans on immigration in late Qing dynasty with uncertainty of Korea(Chosun) triggered the immigration to this district. The flow was heavily strengthened under the influence of Westerners and Japanese imperialism into china which consequently provoked the ruin of Qing dynasty, the civil war between republicans and communist and the socio-political changes in Korea. As population growths, the establishment of hospitals and immigration of healthcare professionals were also increased. Though this district is located in Chinese mainland the influence of Japanese was also relevant which lead to medical practice reflection both sides. Mutual combination and influence of western(contemporary) medicine, TCM and TKM practices made the particularity of chao medicine.

Objectives: This study aimed to analyse: 1) the clinical effectiveness and safety of traditional Korean Medicine (TKM) and frequency of TKM therapies used and their relationship with conventional treatments. Methods: This prospective observational study enrolled children with cerebral palsy (CP) aged 6-78 months (n=126). The children who used herbal medication for >30 days or acupuncture treatment >12 sessions within 6 months were defined as the integrated rehabilitation (IR) group; the remaining participants were included in the conventional rehabilitation (CR) group. Results: Changes in the Gross Motor Function Measure-66 (GMFM-66) were greater in the IR group (6.4±6.1) than in the CR group (4.6±5.8). The reduction in the number of other health problems was greater in the IR group than in the CR group. The GMFM-66 improvement was greatest in gross motor function classification system level 1. There was no between-group difference in the frequency of rehabilitation therapy (10.9±6.6 and 12.0±9.9 in the IR and CR groups, respectively). Conclusion: TKM may offer additional benefits in terms of the GMFM-66 score and other health problems. However, there is a need for further randomized controlled trials involving a restricted CP type and a controlled treatment type and intensity to confirm these findings.

Objective : Ankylosing Spodylitis(AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease that is notorious for its difficulty to cure. This study aims to interpret the mechanism of AS in the Traditional Korean Medical(TKM) perspective, and to understand the role of the spine. Method : Clinical manifestations of AS, epidemiological data and clinical cases were interpreted by traditional methodology. Result : The young age group of patients suffering from this condition suggests that the cause of this condition is not solely linked to deficiency of the Kidney[腎], which is a general cause for bone disease. Its symptoms are linked to obstruction in the upper body, which results in disturbance of Jeong(精) collection in the lower body. Based on other accompanying symptoms, together with its character as an autoimmune disease, a strong link to the spirit of the heart[心神] can be suggested. Conclusion : AS is closely linked not only to essence of kidney[腎陰], but to the spirit of the heart[心神] as well. From the TKM analysis of the spine, we can understand it as the basic pathway for the fundamental Gi(氣) circulation.

This paper introduces an automatic voice classification system for the diagnosis of individual constitution based on Sasang Constitutional Medicine (SCM) in Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM). For the developing of this algorithm, we used the voices of 473 speakers and extracted a total of 144 speech features from the speech data consisting of five sustained vowels and one sentence. The classification system, based on a rule-based algorithm that is derived from a non parametric statistical method, presents binary negative decisions. In conclusion, 55.7% of the speech data were diagnosed by this system, of which 72.8% were correct negative decisions.

Background : 'Yangsaeng' means health preservation concept in TKM(Traditional Korean Medicine). Health promotion using by traditional medicine was increased recently, but, has little measurement tools in evaluating traditional health care program. This study accomplished to analyze internal consistency reliability by Hong-Cheon survey data Method : Internal consistency reliability analysis within survey items Result : There was little reliability in mind and sexual life yangsaeng factor(Cronbach's alpha value 0.325, 0.273), higher reliability in lifestyle yangsaeng factor(0.718). And reliability was various within items according to age and health insurance type.

Objectives: To introduce to TKM scientific dose conversion methods of human to animal or animal to human for new drug investigations. Methods: We searched guidelines of the FDA and KFDA, and compared them with references for drug-dose conversion from various databases such as PubMed and Google. Then, we analyzed the potential issues and problems related to dose conversion in safety documentation of new herbal drugs based on our experiences during Investigational New Drug (IND) applications of TKM. Results: Dose conversion from human to animal or animal to human must be appropriately translated during new drug development. From time to time, investigators have some difficulty in determining the appropriate dose, because of misunderstandings of dose conversion, especially when they estimate starting dose in clinical or animal studies to investigate efficacy, toxicology and mechanisms. Therefore, education of appropriate dose calculation is crucial for investigators. The animal dose should not be extrapolated to humans by a simple conversion method based only on body weight, because many studies suggest the normalization method is based mainly on body surface area (BSA). In general, the body surface area seems to have good correlation among species with several parameters including oxygen utilization, caloric expenditure, basal metabolism, blood volume and circulating plasma protein. Likewise, a safety factor should be taken into consideration when deciding high dose in animal toxicology study. Conclusion: Herein, we explain the significance of dose conversion based on body surface area and starting dose estimation for clinical trials with safety factor.
