Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) significantly deteriorates the quality of life in aged men. Uroflowmetry is a convenient non-invasive clinical test to diagnose BPH. However, the test is usually performed in the presence of a technician, which may affect the way of urination for the lack of privacy. The present study developed a wireless uroflowmeter to provide the best privacy with a user program on PC evaluating the diagnostic parameters. Pilot experiment was followed to test clinical applicability.

In this paper, We used the microphone unlike existing urodynamic inspection which diagnoses the LUTS(lower urinary tract symptoms) and proposed sound measurement the method which the urination happens and apply at a blockade diagnosis. To analyze the blockade degree, We made the experiment set to modeling the Lower Urinry System of the human body and made the microphone of the stethoscope form for the measurement of the urinary sound which the urination happens. We used PC for the analysis of the urinary sound to be measured and implemented the analysis program to use the MATLAB. Hereafter, An analysis result usage, The Practical use will be possible as one of new inspection methods's.

Purpose: The aims of this study were to develop and apply the urinary elimination facilitation program for stroke patients with urinary disorders and evaluate the effectiveness of the program. Methods: This study was conducted using the non-equivalent control group pre- posttest design. The participants included 23 patients in the control group and 22 in the experimental group. Data were collected from Nov. 25, 2013 to Nov. 25, 2014 in acute rehabilitation inpatient wards. For the final analysis, 35 patients' data were utilized 17 in the control group and 18 in the experimental group. The developed urinary elimination facilitation program was continued for 7 days and the program consisted of logging urination, monitoring timely voiding, assisting urinary elimination, and stimulating urination using sound. The data were analyized using the SPSS-win (version 21). Results: The number of urinary catheterization and the urinary discomfort were significantly improved in the experimental group compared to the control group. However residual urine and the occurrence of urinary tract infections were not significantly different between the experimental and control groups. Conclusion: The results of this study indicated that the urinary elimination intervention program for stroke patients with urination disorder could be useful in decreasing the number of urinary catheterization and the urinary discomfort.

A study was conducted to investigate the effects of methods of feeding a total mixed ration (TMR) on behavior patterns of growing Hanwoo steers. A total of 15 growing steers (13 months old) were assigned to the control (fed roughage and concentrate mix separately), TMR1 (fed restricted TMR), and TMR2 (fed TMR ad libitum) groups. Individual behaviors of steers were observed for 48 hours. Compared with the control, feeding restricted TMR (TMR1) resulted in short eating time, long ruminating time, short chewing time, high frequencies of defecation, urination, and drinking of water, great numbers of boluses and chews, long ruminating time per bolus, low feed value index, high eating and chewing efficiencies (p<0.05). Compared with feeding restricted TMR (TMR1), feeding TMR ad libitum (TMR2) resulted in 1.2 kg more daily feed DM intake, long eating and chewing times, short resting time, great frequencies of defecation, urination and drinking of water, more numbers of boluses and chews, long ruminating time per bolus, low feed value index, low eating and high ruminating efficiencies (p<0.05) and similar chewing efficiency (p>0.05). Considering all these results, the wet TMR feeding system induced generally more desirable eating and ruminating behaviors of growing Hanwoo steers, but made the barn floor wetter due to more defecation and urination.

1. Objectives: We report the relation between the questionnaire and the health state on the Sasang Constitution. 2. Methods: We carried out a clinical test, in which 2 Oriental medical doctors participated to diagnose health state in each Sasang Constitution with 239 subjects. The subjects were divided into 3 subgroups, which are allocated to healthy group, poor health group and disease group. 3. Results: We extracted 4 questions for Taeeumin, 5 questions for Soyangin and 3 questions for Soeumin from the whole 98 questions respectively. Soyangin and Taeeumin share a same question that shows significant difference by health status. For the statistical analysis, we used a Chi-square test. As a result, we found out that Taeeumin showed different distributions of answers in direct/indirect characteristic, perspiration, frequent urination, regular defecation. According to the health status Soyangin showed the different distribution of the answers in color of urination, frequent urination, mouth dryness, abnormal perspiration, discomfort of head. Soeumin showed the different distribution of the answers in cold and chilly feel of abdomen, digestion status and cause of digestion problems when body condition gets worse. 4. Conclusions: This is the first work which reports the relatedness between Questionnaire and Health State in each Sasang Constitutions by an objective clinical test. We found out that several questions have different distributions by health status in each Sasang Constitution. These extracted questions are categorized not only by Wansilmoobyung(완실무병), but also by other symptoms and body status.
