Objectives : The causative pathology of acute muscular pain cannot be defined in many patients. To evaluate the relations between mental state and acute muscular pain patients, the author surveyed symptom check list-90-Revision(SCL-90-R) in patients with acute muscular pain. Materials and Methods : From November 2004 to June 2005, a questionnaire including SCL-90-R was given to patients(52 persons) who visited our department for acute(<7days)muscular pain of neck(22 persons) or low back(30 persons). Fifty two patients(30 male, 22 female) completed SCL-90-R Results : 1. Mean values of T-scores on all 9 basic scales in the patients groups were within normal range. but T-scores SOM in the patients groups were significantly very higher than those in Normal groups(p<0.01). 2. The T-scores of SOM In low back pain patients were significantly higher than those in Normal groups(p<0.05). 3. There was no significant difference in all scales between acute muscular pain and L-spine HIVD patients groups. 4. There was no significant difference in all scales between acute muscular pain and general back pain patients groups. 5. There was no significant difference in all scales between male and female in the patients groups. Conclusion : It is concerned between T-scores on all 9 bas κ scales of SCL-90-R and acute muscular pain. Especially acute muscular pain of back has a relation to somatization of T-scores on all 9 basic scales of SCL-90-R.

Objectives : This report is about a case of a patient who improvement in general condition, Infection and bowel after and urinary dysfunction. Methods : We diagnosed that symptoms as Wejeung(?證), and employed oriental medical treatments, herb medication, acupuncture, electro-acupuncture, moxibustion and physical therapy. Results : In the first case, neurologic impairment was aggravated despite of 15 days of treatments. In the second case, motor and defecation was improved. Conclusions : There is no specific treatment for acute transverse myelitis in the Western medicine. Several case reports revealed clinical improvement of subacute or chronic transverse myelitis in the oriental medicine. We anticipated that the researches regarding treatment for acute transverse myelitis in the oriental medicine will be encouraged in the near future.

Objectives : This report is about a case of a patient who improvement in general condition, Infection and dysphagia after poststroke seizure. Methods : We observed a patiet who received treatment in hospital because of stroke sequelae. Her symptoms were left hemiplegia, right hemiparesis, dysphagia, dyspnea, sputum and general weakness, and acupunture and herb medicine were applied. Results : Stroke is the most common cause of seizures in the elderly. The impact of late onset GTC(generalized tonic-clonic) seizures is associated with worse outcomes. Conclusion : The patient of this case was attacked by intracerebal hemorrhage, cerebaral infarction and GTC seizures. Since then her neurologic disorder was progressed. As the treatments of the patient, herb medication and acupuncture therapy were applied and she got a wide improvement of dysphagia, dyspnea, URI sign and general condition.

Objectives : This study was performed to evaluate the effect of Cervus elaphus herbal-acupuncture on patient with polyneuritis, who shows sensory disorder on both hands, severe pain on left foot and ambulation difficulty due to weakness on left leg. Methods : We treated the patient by Cervus elaphus Herbal-acupuncture. Other treatments were acupunture, herbal medication, several rehabilitative therapies without western medication. We used evaluation scale including VAS(Visual Analogue Scale), MRC(Medicak Research Council) and Thermological Difference of between hand and foot. Results and Conclusions : In the results, the symptoms were improved gradually, and VAS and MRC were also numerically improved. Thermological Difference of between feet was decreased from$4.40^{\circ}C\;to\;0.26^{\circ}C$. In this case, a patient was treated by oriental medical treatments without western medication, and relatively the relatively the result was more effective.

Objectives : A rare case of dural tear ensuing after a cervical Chuna Manipulation Treatment leading to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage in the lower cervical and upper thoracic spine was found, so we report it. Methods : A 32-year-old woman presented with back and neck pain in 1 days earlier. The patient undertook a cervical Chuna Manipulation Treatment. After this maneuver, the patient complained of an orthostatic headache with nausea. The patient's headache worsened, and lying down gave the only measure of limited relief. In Brain CT and MRI study, nonspecific finding was detected. In Cistemography study, CSF leakage at lower cervical or upper thoracic area was detected. Results and Conclusions : It is supposed that this patient suffered a dural tear and CSF leakage secondarily due to a cervical Chuna Manipulation Treatment. From this case, we can understand the etiology of dural tear to some extent and consider the complication of Chuna Manipulation Treatment. In the future, more study, research and prospective trial for complications of a cervical Chuna Manipulation Treatment is needed.

Objectives : The purpose of study was to compare and analyze the effects of the distance Acupuncture and the Chuna on Temporomandibular Disorder. Methods : Clinical studies were done on 31 patients who were treated with Temporomandibular Disorder at Dept. of Acupuncture & Moxibusition of Hospital of Ha-na Oriental Medicine from May 23 2005 to Apr 30 2006. Subjects were divided Into two group, Distance acupuncture group and Chuna group. In Distance acupuncture group, we treated patients with Wijungyug(胃正格) or Damjungyug(膽正格). In Chuna group, we treated patients with Distraction & Translation technique. For evaluating Function of Temporomandibular joint of Patients, we use the Modified Craniomandibular Index(mCMI) before treatment and after 6th treatment. Results : In Mandibular Movement(MM) of patients, the patients of Acupuncture Group were more effective than Chuna group. In TMJ noise(TN) of patients, the patients of Chuna Group were more effective than Acupuncture group. Conclusions : The Distance acupuncture may be better effect on Mandibular Movement and The chuna maybe better effect on TMJ noise.

Objectives : To introduce Total Body Modification(TBM) technique system developed by Dr. Victor Frank DC, DO, ND through combining chiropractic manipulation with osteopathy, acupuncture meridian system, and naturopathy based on his long-time clinical experiences and insights. Methods : After investigating the art, philosophy and science of TBM thechnique, and applying TBM practice under private clinical situation, we compared It with Chuna Korean manual medicine and oriental medicine system. Results : This system deals with correcting human body's functional physiology to potentiate in a favorable manner. TBM uses a neuromuscular reflex test and body access meridian points to tap into the body's biocomputer and read functional programs. Corrections are usually made by means of special respiratory spinal adjustment, cranial, soft tissue, or specific joint manipulation. Conclusions : We found similarities between TBM and Chuna system in the view of Korean Traditional meridian concept. The special combinations and sequences of various alarm points and associated points have clinical effects on the treatment of chronic spinal subluxation pattern. This suggests TBM has significance In the point of the future evolution of Chuna manual medicine in Korea.

Objective : The aim of this study was to evaluate association between lumbar spinal stenosis, one of degenerative diseases, and bone mineral density. Methods : We monitored 9 lumbar spinal stenosis patients in women above 50 years, visiting outpatient clinic of the Jaseng Oriental Medicine Hospital between January 5 2006 and March 31, 2006. They were diagnosed by radiologist ist after taking Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI). The cases were Investigated the bone mineral density using Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiomerty(DEXA). and then Picture Archiving Communication System(PACS) were used to assess correlation between lumbar spinal stenosis and bone mineral density. Results : 1. In comparison of the spinal canal area and lumbar spine 2 level bone mineral density, the data showed a significant result 2. The data, between spinal canal area and lumbar spine 1-2 level bone mineral density, indicated a significant result. 3. Also, the result of comparison between spinal canal area and the lowest value of bone mineral density showed significance. Conclusions : It showed that there is a statistically significant correlation between lumbar spinal stenosis and bone mineral density.
