Objectives : In cases of osteoarthritis, the hypofunction of the cartilage and joint leads to a limited range of joint motion, swelling, and pain, which is generally treated using pharmaceutical drugs (e.g., anti-inflammatory agents, cartilage protectants, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) or replacement arthroplasty. However, long-term drug treatment is associated with adverse effects on the gastrointestinal systems. The present study aimed to evaluate the ability of Giheolsotong-hwan to treat of osteoarthritis symptoms in the MIA-induced rat model based on histological analysis, and factors that are associated with inflammation and bone mineral metabolism. Methods : Giheolsotong-hwan was administered orally at doses of 200 mg/kg/day or 400 mg/kg/day for 2 weeks before direct injection of monosodium iodoacetate ($3mg/50{\mu}{\ell}$ of 0.9% saline) into the intra-articular space of the rats' right knee. The rats subsequently received the same doses of oral Giheolsotong-hwan for another 4 weeks. We evaluated the treatment effects based on serum biomarkers and histopathological analysis of the knee joints. Results : Compared to those in control rats, the Giheolsotong-hwan treatments significantly decreased the serum concentration of inflammation factors (i.e., $IL-1{\beta}$, IL-6, $TNF-{\alpha}$, $PGE_2$, and $LTB_4$), and bone degrade factors (i.e., MMP-9, CTX-II, and COMP). In addition, the Giheolsotong-hwan treatments significantly increased the concentration of glycosaminoglycans of bone defence factors, but no chage the TIMP-1. Furthermore, the Giheolsotong-hwan treatments effectively preserved the knee cartilage and proteoglycan. Conclusion : The results indicate that Giheolsotong-hwan treated osteoarthritis symptoms. Thus, Giheolsotong-hwan may be a novel oriental therapeutic option for the management of osteoarthritis.

우리나라는 최근 도시화 및 산업화 등과 같은 유역개발이 가속화되면서 유역환경의 급격한 변화를 가져왔다. 도시화는 지표면의 불투수 면적을 증가시키고, 농업지역의 확대는 비료 및 농약의 사용을 증가시키고, 강우시 토양침식에 따른 흙탕물과 비점오염원의 수계 유출로 인해 수질악화 등의 문제를 야기시킨다. 이와 같은 유역환경의 변화는 수질에 직접적인 영향을 끼치므로, 미래 토지이용의 변화에 따른 하천유역의 유출특성과 영향 인자를 규명해야 효율적인 하천유역관리를 할 수 있다. 하지만 우리나라는 기후적 특성상 계절에 따른 수질 및 기후변수의 편차가 크기 때문에 하천유역관리에 있어 어려움이 많다. 특히 남한강 유역은 산림 및 고랭지밭 비중이 높은 지역이며, 여름철에는 강우로인한 토양침식이 심각하여 수질 및 수생태계 건강성을 악화시킨다. 남한강 상류 유역에는 송천과 도암호, 골지천과 같은 비점오염관리지역이 위치하고 있으며 현재까지도 하천유역관리가 어려운 지역에 해당한다. 본 연구는 남한강 유역에 위치한 17개 수질측정망을 대상으로 GIS시스템을 이용해 17개의 소권역으로 나누어 분석하였다. 토지이용자료는 환경공간정보 서비스의 2010년대 말 자료를 이용하였으며, 수질 자료는 유역환경 변화에 영향을 미칠 것이라 판단되는 수질 변수를 선별하여 10년동안의 장기간 수질 데이터를 이용하여 분석하였다. 16개의 수질변수는 정규성을 검증한 후 pairwisse t-test를 이용한 시기별 수질의 차이를 비교하였으며, 수질변수들과 토지이용매개변수 간에 상관관계를 찾아 유의관계가 있는지 확인함으로써 서로 다른 변수간에 상관성을 파악하고자 하였다. 유역의 특성별 상관도를 평가하고 해석하기 위하여 주성분 분석(Principal component analysis, PCA)을 실시하였다. 통계적 방법을 통해 시기에 따른 수질과 토지이용간의 관계를 밝힘으로써 미래하천유역관리에 기초자료로 활용될 것이다.

This study was performed to analyze the patient's experience during the progress of disease in the patients with osteoarthritis, who are taken the replacement surgery of knee Joint. The examine was consisted of five patients with osteoarthritis, who are taken the replacement surgery of knee joint from Dec. 4. 1995 to May, 20, 1996 at C university hospital. After hospitalization, the physical and psycho-logical status of the patients during preoperation, postoperation and discharge was examined. The data were examined according to the ethnographic method. The results are as follows. The patients experienced the periods of embarrasment, conflict, before surgery suffering, acceptance period after surgery. In the embarrasment period, the patients take a multiple medication therapy including hospital treatment, oriental medication and folk medication to ameliorate joint pain after first diagnosis on arthritis. The embarrasment period includes compulsive drug medication, oriental medication, folk medication, trouble some, sadness and survey of hospitals. In the conflict period, the patients consider the operation of knee because of working difficulty and severe Joint Pain, while they feel anxiety about the surgery. They condemn their physical situations. They have the conflict and anxiety on surgical operation. they consider the quality of life. They hope the surgery makes patients to improve walking ability. This period includes self-condemned, sorry, tiresomeness, expectation, worrisomeness, anxiety and hesitance. In the suffering period, the patients experience post operation physical discomfort after the total knee replacement. They do physical exercise, including extension and straight leg raising to maintain walking ability, while they endure to wait approximately 6 months for normal walking movements and they are also unstable to environmental people's sight. This period includes postoperative pain, continuous discomfort, inability and communication difficulty to other's people. In the acceptance period, the patients consider longerity of artificial Joint and also endure mild remaining joint pain. Some of them have religions for their wellbeing of life. This period include a self-protesting policy, abandonment, self-consolation, dependence on religions. According to the result from this study I suggested these shown below. 1) After replacement surgery of knee joint, continuous investigation on outcome patient is necessary. 2) It is also necessary to analyze on patient's experiences, who are taken the replacement surgery of hip Joint. 3) Study on disease experiences of patients with rhematoid arthritis, who take drug medication and physical therapy alone without surgery, is necessary. 4) Investigation on patient's favorable folk medication may be helpful to analyze disease experience of patients with osteoarthritis.
