Also this study performed to evaluate the relationship between dysmenorrhea and acne scars, and the effects of each treatment on treatment duration and Korean Acne Grading System(KAGS) and QGASC grade.Methods : 95 patients with acne scars were understood by medical records and case photos, and we evaluated pre and post acne scar grade based on KAGS and QGASC. We analyzed data by SPSS 22 for windows program, and figured out the relation between duration of acne and QGASC grade and treatment duration by Spearman correlation analysis, and performed Mann-Whitney U-test to figure out the relation between dysmenorrhea and QGASC grade. We performed Wilcoxon test to evaluate that treatment of acne scars effects on KAGS grade and QGASC grade, and performed Kruskal-Wallis test to figure out the difference of each treatment which effects on KAGS grade and QGASC grade, and performed Post-hoc analysis to figure out the group comparison.Results & Conclusions : QGASC grade depending on duration of acne was statistically significance. Subcision and Microneedle Therapy System(MTS) and pharmacopuncture were significantly improved acne scars. Other treatments were significantly more effective than subcision and pharmacopuncture combined treatment. Treatment duration of Subcision and MTS combined treatment was significantly most shortest than other treatment.

본 연구는 여드름을 가지고 있는 중국인 20-30대를 대상으로 여드름에 대한 인식과 관리 방법을 비교 연구하고자 하였다. 설문지는 총 600부 배포하여 회수된 설문지 560부 중 27부를 제외한 533부를 최종분석에 사용하였다. 연구결과 연령에 따른 중국인의 여드름 발생원인 인식, 관리인식, 악화요인 인식 차이 분석 결과 '관리인식' t=3.380, '악화요인 인식' t=2.314로 나타나 연령에 따라 여드름에 대한 인식 차이가 있다는 것을 알 수 있었으며 30대보다 20대가 여드름에 대한 인식 정도가 더 높음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 중국인의 연령에 따른 여드름에 대한 인식과 관리 방법을 비교 분석함으로써 시대의 변화에 따른 여드름 관리 인식과 행태의 변화를 파악하고 한국인과 중국인의 여드름 인식에 대한 차이 비교, 추후 여드름 피부의 효과적인 관리 방법을 모색하기 위한 기초자료로 제공될 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to review clinical studies about the efficacy of fire needling for the treatment of acne vulgaris. Methods and Results : In this review, Oasis, NDSL, CNKI, PubMed, Cochrane, J STAGE and CINII were used as the main databases for searching for medical journals, using the keywords "acne and fire needling"," acne and fire needle"," acne and fire acupuncture", and" acne and red hot needle". The initial search range included only randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and papers not matching inclusion criteria were excluded. Initially a total of 108 studies were found, with ten being excluded during title and abstract screening. After scanning 98 papers, a total of 31 RCTs were selected and analyzed. In the 31 RCTs, patients with acne were randomized into groups for treatment and control. Specifically, the treatment group received fire needling, while the control group were concurrently given other treatments. The results of the completed studies have shown that the treatment group receiving fire needling demonstrated significant improvement compared to the control group. Conclusion : During our study, it was verified that the efficacy of fire needling for the treatment of acne vulgaris was both significant and meaningful. Therefore, fire needling can be a safe and effective alternative treatment for acne. However, to confirm this result, further investigation in a traditional clinic is required, accompanied by high quality studies including randomized, placebo-controlled double-blind trials.
