The purpose of urodynamic investigation is to obtain the information on the function of the urinary system. The aim of this study is to acquire the useful information of lower urinary tract symptom (LUTS) diagnosis through void force signal as noninvasive method. The system which could evaluate the function of compensatory hypertrophy with noninvasive and comfortable method was implemented to measure uroflow and void force during urination. The implemented system composes of the sensor parts, signal conditioning parts and PC monitoring program. For the evaluation of the implemented system, the simulation of control part of the system was performed and the model system for the lower urinary system was designed. The superiority of a measuring characteristic of the implemented system was verified using the model system. From the evaluation of the model system, we have found out that the void force was dependent on the occlusion degree and compensatory hypertrophy significantly.

Rubus coreantim (Rosaceae), which has been used in oriental traditional medicine as the remedies for impotence, pollution and premature ejaculation, bet-wetting and frequ ency of urination. is a fruit drug cultivating throughout southern Korea. The leaves of Rubus coreanum were extracted with 80% acetone. The extracts were separated by Ambellite XAD-2, Sephadex LH-20. MCI-gel CHP 20P and Cosmosil 75 C$_{18}$ OPN. And three flavonoids were isolated. The structures of these compounds were elucidated as quercetin-3-O-${\beta}$-D-glueuronopyranoside(l). quercetin-3-O-${\beta}$-D-glueuronopyranosyl methyl ester(2), quercetin-3-O-${\beta}$-D-xylopyranosyl-(2${\rightarrow}$1)-${\beta}$-glucopyranoside(3) on the basis of physicochemical and spectroscopic evidences.

All of them were treated with medical (prednisolone or carprofen, antibiotics), acupuncture (Ji Zhong, Bai Hui, Zhong Shu, Pang Guang Shu, Zu San Li, Huan Tiao) and physical therapy (hydrotherapy, thermotherapy, massage, manipulation, swimming). Of twelve patients were recovered of neurologic deficits within 21 days after the onset of treatment. However, three dogs were not resolved, which were found to have other spinal cord disease concomitantly. All of patients showed normal urination after treatment.

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is bulging of one or more of the pelvic organs into the vagina and triggered by multiple causes. It is a very common disorder, especially among older women. POP is characterized by protrusion of the presentation part visible by the naked eye, and problems with urination or bowel movements. POP can be diagnosed based on the onset of symptoms and a pelvic exam, and management options include medical and surgical treatment. Although medical treatment cannot correct the abnormal herniation of the pelvic structures, this can help alleviate symptoms. One of the disadvantages of surgical interventions is recurrence, and advances in surgical techniques have decreased recurrence rates of POP. Therefore, author will explain the gynecology and urology approach and treatment.

Objective The purpose of this study is to understand the meaning of Splenic Constipation(脾約) in "Donguisusebowon(東醫壽世保元)". Methods We investigated the provisions associated with splenic constipation written in "Donguisusebowon", "Donguibogam(東醫寶鑑)", "Shanghanlun(傷寒論)" and several papers which related to splenic constipation. Results and Conclusions 1. Splenic constipation in "Donguisusebowon" falls into the category of Soeumin Yang Depletion Symptomatology(少陰人 亡陽病). The symptoms of splenic constipation include sweating and smooth urination. 2. Splenic constipation in "Donguisusebowon", "Shanghanlun", "Donguibogam" is based on fluid deficiency, but splenic constipation in "Donguisusebowon" is focused on sweating unlike "Shanghanlun" and sweating was quoted in "Donguibogam". 3. Splenic constipation in "Shanghanlun" and "Donguibogam" is focused primarily on constipation. The difference is that splenic constipation in "Donguibogam" relates to sweating. 4. Therefore, even if they use the same term, we need to understand that the meaning of splenic constipation in "Donguisusebowon" is different from that of "Shanghanlun" and "Donguibogam".

This article is an analysis of the tale Munhŭi who bought a dream which has been reported, with few variants, both in Samguk sagi and Samguk yusa. As the tale narrates a very particular and old dream, in which a urine flood forecasts kingship and royalty, it has not been investigated here on the basis of a modern psycho-analytical approach, but within eastern and western ancient cultural patterns regarding humans' consideration for excreta and criteria of dreams interpretation. The research led the author to propose for Munhŭi's dream an archaic (and today lost) archetype of interpretation, whose origin is perhaps to be found in the Ancient Middle-East.
