Objectives : The Purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical application of conservative treatment for femoral neck stress fracture developed in avascular necrosis of the femoral head. Methods : Patient is hospitalized at Dept. of Oriental Rehabilitation Medicine, Bu-Chun Jaseng Oriental Medicine Hospital, diagnosed as femoral neck stress fracture developed in avascular necrosis of the femoral head and treated by herbal medicine, acupuncture and moxibustion. This study was measured by Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) score, range of motion and walking time. Results : After conservative treatment, the patient's pain was controlled and VAS score was decreased. Range of motion and walking time were improved. Conclusions : As seen in this one case, Oriental conservative treatment has a positive effect to control pain with femoral neck stress fracture developed in avascular necrosis of the femoral head.

To report the effect of an Korean medical treatment, including Space spinal conduction exercise and manipulation treatment for a patient suffering with spondylolisthesis. Three patients were treated by oriental medical treatment including acupuncture, oriental medicine, Space spinal conduction exercise and manipulation treatment and the results were assessed with a numerical rating scale (NRS), walking condition, and back pain, sciatica. After treatment, the NRS changed from 8~9 to 1~2 and walking condition get better. The patient's back pain and sciatica have improved. In this study, oriental medical treatment, including Space spinal conduction exercise and manipulation treatment was an effective treatment for patients with spondylolisthesis. However, additional studies are needed, as are more and observations of these patients.

This study was clinically performed with the 73 outpatients of urticaria who had visited the Dept. of Dermartology, Oriental Medical Hospital, Dong-eui University from January 1st 2000 to June 30th 2003. They have all taken the oriental herb medicine as Sungmagalguntanggamibang(SGT, 升麻葛根湯加味方) more than 1 time. Urticaria is a common disease and a well known reaction pattern of the skin charaterized by erythema, wheals and edema, that is the results of various causes. Urticaria is classified into acute or chronic type. The etilogy of acute uricaria has been determined in many cases, but the cause of chronic urticaria has been determined in 10$\%$ to 20$\%$ of cases. Character of chronic type urticaria is recurrent pruritus and erythematous skin disease by stimulating factor. Through checking up the present patient state, we verified the effect of SGT in various ways. The results were summarized as follows; 1. An increase of taking a medicine(SGT) and attending a hospital in number let down repeated urticaria occurence. 2. SGT is more effective when the symptoms with the severe pruritic wheals are spread on the whole body in daily occurrence. 3. In urticaria treatment method, gradually reducing a western medicine and going side by side SGT, that is good at symptoms improvement. 4. Etiology of urticaria is classified into intestine-stomach accumulated heat by indigestion(食滯腸胃積熱), wind-moisture(風濕), wind-heat(風熱) etc. The SGT is available in the order of frequency of use.

Objectives: The modified fasting therapy(MFT) of traditional korean medicine uses very low calorie diet on a patient with chronic disease and obesity. During the fasting period of MFT, calorie intake is restricted under 600kcal. Adverse events such as hunger, heartburn, headache, and hair loss can occur because of fasting. In case of Gilbert's syndrome, Jaundice can arise without disorder of liver function and hemolysis because of increase of unconjugated bilirubin. We experienced a case of Gilbert's syndrome patient who appeared jaundice during the fasting period, so we report about that with literature review.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of muscle energy techniques with acupuncture therapy on spasmodic torticollis Methods : The patients were diagnosed as spasmodic torticollis and treated with muscle energy techniques and acupuncture therapy and so on. We have measured cervical range of motion and visual analogue scale score before and after treatment. Results : After treatments, spasmodic torticollis was improved. Cervical range of motion and visual analogue scale score were recovered by muscle energy techniques and acupuncture therapy. Conclusions : We concluded that muscle energy techniques and acupuncture therapy was effective treatment on spasmodic torticollis.

Erysipelas is a inflammatory disease that characterized by erythrism, heat sensation, swelling, pain and tenderness. In initial invasion chilling sense and hyperthermia occur suddenly and local skin turn into red like coating with paints. it spreads promptly and the boundary is manifest. the position of invasion is not settled and it recur over again. Compared with western medicine it is similar to the inflammation caused by group A p-hemolytic streptococcus. If a proper care for erysipelas is not done in the time of expiration. Inflammation diffuse on circumferential skin and Iymphnode due to the diffusion of pathogene. In serious case. it can lead to death by ichoremia. We have four healing cases using 'younkyopaedok-san' that obtain good results and report it.

Anthocyanin derivatives are an important of natural compounds responsible for the red, purple and blue colors in a large number of plants. This molecules are polymethoxy-derivatives of 2-phenylbenzopyrylium salts. Despite the beneficial properties of anthocyanins, the effectiveness of preventing or treating various diseases depends on bioavailability. Therefore, In this study, in order to investigate the electrical characteristics of anthocyanin derivatives, we investigated the electrochemical properties of derivatives by calculating the total energy, bandgap, net charge of anthocyanin derivatives using HyperChem8.0's PM3 method.

Objectives The purpose of this review is to analyze trends of domestic research in Korean medicine treatment for frozen shoulder. Methods Among the clinical papers published from January 1, 2000 to August 2023, papers that treated frozen shoulders with Korean medicine treatment were searched through five domestic databases (Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System, KMbase, Research Information Sharing Service, Science ON, Korean studies Information Service System). Results Finally, 12 studies were included. Three studies were clinical trials and 9 were observational studies. The most commonly used treatment was acupuncture. Range of movement (range of motion) and visual analogue scale were frequently used as measurement methods. Studies with significant effects were 66.6% in controlled trials and 100% in studies without control group. Conclusions In this study, literature on Korean medicine treatment for frozen shoulder was reviewed. As a result of the review, Korean medicine treatment for frozen shoulder showed significant results. However, there have been several limitations and suggest that more research and higher levels of research on Korean medicine treatment of frozen shoulder need to be conducted.
