Objectives : The purpose of this study is to investigate the mechanism of Cosmetic Acupuncture through reinterpretation of anatomy and physiology. Methods : The causes of wrinkle increases and rapid aging of facial skin were studied and the theoretical system of Cosmetic Acupuncture treatment was analyzed through anatomy and physiology reinterpretation. Results and Conclusions : An increase in wrinkles and rapid aging of facial skin is caused by xerosis. Skin condition represents the condition of subcutaneous muscle. The reason why skin becomes easily dry is the heat produced by craniofacial part. Craniofacial part always generates lot of physiological fever because of the muscles. This physiological fever is produced from the muscles that are responsible for maintaining skull suture, controlling the movement of temporomandibular joint, maintaining head and neck posture. Controlling this fever is the crux of Cosmetic Acupuncture mechanism. These muscles correspond to Foot Taeyang meridian-muscle, Foot Soyang meridian-muscle and Foot Yangmyung meridian-muscle. Cosmetic Acupuncture is effective for preventing facial skin from aging and wrinkle increase by mechanical stimulus on facial muscles, and for controlling craniofacial part meridian-muscle system producing the heat.

Objectives : This study is to applied effectively to the acupuncture treatment for disorders following whiplash injuries. Methods : This study suggests five various ways and principtes of treating disorders following whiplash injuries by means of acupuncture. First principle is that acupuncture treatment is carried out on acupoint far from cervical spine at acute stage, on the other hand, Extraordinary Vessel and other acupuncture treatment such as five element acupuncture treatment is applied at chronic stage in order to control balance disoders due to cervical pathology. Second is acupuncture treatment will be performed in group of three part of Meridian System-Yangmyung, Taeyang, Soyang-according to cervical kinetic, its characteristic and location of pain. Third is acupuncture treatment could be performed on basis of theory of Eohyel-disorders and disturbance of blood circulation. Fourth is to decrease tension of SCM muscle, because disorders following whiplash injuries has much association to injury of CM muscle and is simillar to tension syndroms of SCM muscle. fifth is taping therapy could control and decrease disorders following whiplash injuries based on spiral balance taping theory. Conclusions : These results suggest that acupuncture treatment for disorders following whiplash injuries will significally decrease pain and control syndrom caused by cervical disorder.

And 85% of those appears from chapter of Pediatrics to chapter of coughs. Prescriptions with Radix Puerariae as the main ingredient are used for skin diseases, cold, epidemics, abscess, diabetes, stroke, feverish diseases, intestinal diseases, weakness and cough.

And those with small dosage of 0.875 to 1.125g were for use on infants or pregnant women. The grounding pathology used for prescriptions with Radix Puerariae as an ingredient appeared to be mostly the pathology related to the Six External Qi. Among this, wind with cold(風寒), wind, cold with heat and humidity(風寒署濕), catching cold(傷寒), successively catching cold(兩感傷寒), cold of the Yangmyung and heat clogging(陽明傷寒火鬱), abnormal weather(時令不正) are the majority. Through the prescriptions with Radix Puerariae as an ingredient, it could be concluded Radix Puerariae that has various functions such as sweating and removing rash(發表透疹), exhalation and curing muscular ache(發散解肌), producing body fluid and ceasing thirst(生津止渴), opening abscess and healing the scar(托瘡生肌), removal of fever(解熱), resolving hangover(醒酒).

Background: This was a study to analyze Sanghanron through network theory, as the first attempt to construct network models for systems biomedicine in traditional Korean medicine. For this purpose, we investigated the network structure with priority given to two-node connections between symptoms and herbs of Taeyangbyung compilation in Sanghanron. Purpose: We had three goals in carrying out this study. First, to establish the minimum clinical grouping data sets for symptoms and herbs of Taeyangbyung compilation in Sanghanron. Second, to make index files for the obtained data sets. Third, to generate a network structure for systems biomedicine in this part, and analyze its relationship. Methods: Using MS office Excel and Netminer software, we constructed the minimum clinical grouping data sets and the network for systems biomedicine about symptoms and herbs of Taeyangbyung compilation in Sanghanron, and analyzed its relationship. Results: We established the minimum clinical grouping data sets for symptoms and herbs of Taeyangbyung compilation in Sanghanron, using MS Excel. We constructed a network to structurize our database through two-node connections of Netminer program, and analyzed its relationships. Conclusions: Further research on network model for systems biomedicine between symptoms and herbs for three Yang and three Um(Taeyang, Soyang, Yangmyung, Taeum, Soum, Gualum) disease compilation is necessary.

After researching on infantile diseases in Hyungsang medicine, the writer got the conclusions as follows. The infants who are excess of the Yang energy need to nourish the Eum- blood. The main causes of the infantile disorders are congenital defect and malfunction of internal organs by nature, as results of these they suffer from mental disorders or being undergrown. And after birth they get ill from internal injury or external affections, mainly epilepsy by retention of undigested food, fever, cough, asthma, nasal obstruction, dermatopathia, and affection by cold, etc. In Hyungsang medicine Dam-body is apt to get ill from deficiency of Eum-blood and bangkwang-body from deficiency of Yang-energy. And infants are hare to be moderate in food, so they become to diseases of the Spleen and stomach, especially infants with Yangmyung type get to epilepsy, cough, skin disorders, and obese for the reasonof overeating. Among main infantile symptoms congenital defects, infantile mental disorders, and convulsive diseases come from congenital defect and malfunciton of internal organs, so it must be treated the symptoms following the reasons. Above all infantile mental disorders are treated not to separate the spirit from the body. And fever, cough and asthma, affection by cold, skin diseases, poor appetite, and obese come from deficiency of Kidney or the deficiency and excess of the Spleen and stomach. In order to prevent from infantile diseases right antenatal training, taking medicine rightly, exercise and eating good habits are needed to give guidance. Seeing through the clinical cases in Hyungsang medicine, we come to know that the infantile mental disorders come out primarily for the reasons of the congenital defect, and the infantile epilepsy come from malfunction of internal organs, and the nasal obstruction and skin diseases come from deficiency of Kidney or the deficiency and excess of the Spleen and stomach.

Background: This is a study for building up the database foundation and about graphic structures of Ontology Network systems of Taeyangbyung compilation in Sanghannon in Traditonal Korean Medicine. Therefore, we began to this study about the systematic clinical ontology network systems with priority given to symptoms of Taeyangbyung compilation in Sanghannon. Purpose: We have two goals to carry out this study. The first, we will establish the minimum clinical grouping data sets about symptoms of Taeyangbyung compilation in Sanghannon. The second, we will find out graphic structures of ontology network system in this part, and analysis that. Methods: Through MS office Excel, Access and Netminer software, we will construct the minimum clinical grouping data sets and the graphic structures of ontology network system about symptoms of Taeyangbyung compilation in Sanghannon, and analysis that. Results: We established the minimum clinical grouping data sets about symptoms of Taeyangbyung compilation in Sanghannon through MS Excel and Access software, and constructed the ontology images to structurize our database through Netminer program, and analysis that. Conclusions: Further research about ontology network between symptoms and prescription and three Yang and three Um(Taeyang, Soyang, Yangmyung, Taeum, Soum, Gualum) Disease compilation is necessary.
