1. Objectives This paper was written in order ro understand the conception on YangQi and YinQi in Sasang Constitutional Medicine. Specially that were focused on the discourse of the symptoms and diseases. 2. Methods We analysis YangQi and YinQi in Gabobon(甲午本) and Sinchukbon(辛丑本) of ${\ulcorner}$Dongyi Suse Bowon${\lrcorner}$ 3. Results and Conclusions The symptomatic-pharmacology of Soeunin and Soyangin was base on the master of reserving life(保命之主). YangQi is ascending Qi and YinQi is descending Qi. that conception is Qi of the large and small organ. And that is appeared hot or cold Qi in body. The influential competition of YinYang is focused on primordial Qi(正氣) of small organ in Gabobon. And focused on small organ's the primordial Qi of the exterior disease and large that of the interior disease in Sinchukbon. YangQi is divided to physiological that and patholgical that at the discourse on the Soyangin’s interior disease in the Sinchukbon. Because YinQi is in proportion to physiological YangQi and inverse proportion to pathological YangQi, physiological that is similar to weak and strong of YinQi that is the master of reserving life. So ascending Yang of Soyangin is more correct as ascending physiological that. YinQi is not divided to physiologica that and patholgical that at the discourse on the Soeumin's interior disease in the Sinchukbon like Soyangin's that. But there is more reasonable that divid physiological YinQi and patholgical that. So descending Yin of Soeumin is more correct as descending physiological that.

This study was undertaken to investigate the relationships between film and processing solution at different processing temperatures. Three kinds of periapical film were used for this study. They included EP-2l film, DF-58, and A film Each film was processed by automatic film processor with RD-Ⅲ X-dol 90, and A processing solutions at 68° 74° 80° 86° and 92°F. Film density was measured with the densitometer, and base plus fog density, film relative speed, film contrast, and subject contrast were evaluated. The following results were obtained; 1. As the processing temperature was increased, base plus density was increased. Inadequate base plus fog densities were obtained with three films in combination with three processing solutions at 92°F. 2. Lowest base plus fog densities were obtained with A film, followed in ascending order by EP-21, and DF-58 film in combination with A or RD-Ⅲ processing solutions. The sequence of base plus fog densities was in ascending order by EP-21, A, and DF-58 film in combination with X-dol 90 processing solution. 3. The sequence of film relative speed values was in ascending order of EP-21, A, and DF-58 film in combination with A and RD-Ⅲ processing solutions, respectively. 4. As the processing temperature was increased, film contrast values was increased. The sequence of film contrast values was in descending order solution. The sequence of film contrast values was in descending order of EP-2l, DF-58, and A film in combination with RD-Ⅲ, X-dol 90 processing solution at 80°F. 5. As the processing temperature was increased, subject contrast was increased. The sequence of subject contrast was in descending order of A, X-dol 90, and RD-Ⅲ processing solution in combination with three films at 80°F. The sequence of subject contrast was in descending order of EP-21, A, and DF-58 film in combination with A processing solution at different processing temperatures.

Acute mediastinitis is a fatal infection which occurs related to connective tissue of mediastium, in the thoratic organs. Occurrence of mediastinitis due to craniocervical infection is very rare, and is defined as descending necrotizing mediastinitis. November 8th, 2008, man in his early fifties visited ER due to severe swelling on left neck area and dyspnea. Antibiotic were administered immediately, and vast amount of abscess formation on pneumomediastinum and adjacent tissues were observed via chest computed tomography. With cooperation of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery department, emergency incision and drainage with drain insertion was done to remove abscess, and control the infection. After surgery, everyday saline irrigation through drain was done during hospitalization, with continues antibiotic therapy. Descending necrotising mediastinitis is a most rare and dangerous infection which occurs on oropharyngeal area. In case of descending necrotising mediastinitis, accurate diagnosis, airway maintenance, remove of abscess by incision and drainage, aggressive antibiotic therapy and continuous saline irrigation is necessary to increase patient survivability. Also, computed tomography with contrast media is essential to figure out the size and location of the infection and abscess formation.

Descending necrotizing mediastinitis(DNM) is a rare complication of the oropharyngeal and cervical infection. Descending necrotizing mediastinitis requires an early and aggressive surgical approach to reduce the high morbidity and mortality associated with this disease. A 39-year-old man complained of odynophagia, neck swelling, and disturbance of swallowing with dyspnea. CT scans of the neck suggested a peritonsillar abscess and retropharyngeal and peripharyngeal abscess. He underwent cervical drainage. He remained febrile and complained of severe both pain in both shoulders. On postoperative day 5, a follow-up CT scan confirmed a mediastinal abscess. Reexploration of the neck and right thoracotomy for debridement and drainage of the mediastinal abscess were performed.. A large amount of pus was drained from the anterior and posterior mediastinum and its necrotic tissue was debrided. The patient's condition and radiologic findings gradually improved. Cultures of the drain fluid revealed Klebsiella pneumoniae. He was discharged on the 85th hospital day. In our experience, both transcervical drainage and aggressive mediastinal exploration via thoracotomy can lead to an improvement in the survival of the patient with descending necrotizing mediastinitis. CT scanning is useful for early diagnosis of mediastinitis and for follow up.

To clarify the apparent hypoplasia of the descending aorta in infants with atrioventricular septal defect[AVSD] patients, we reviewed the catheterization data and angiograms of 34 consecutive patients with AVSD less than 1 year of age who underwent repair at our institution since 1985. We compared them to 10 patients with Atrial Septal Defect[ASD] and 10 patients with Ventricular Septal Defect[VSD] who were matched for age, size and Qp/Qs. The Descending Aorta Index [DAI] of the AVSD group was not different from the VSD or ASD groups, [147.9$\pm$ 34.8 mm2/m2 versus 158.6$\pm$ 31.5 mm2/m2 and 153.2$\pm$ 43.1 mm2/m2].However, the Pulmonary Artery Index [PAI] of the AVSD group was significantly larger than the other groups [684.3$\pm$ 170.7 mm2/m2 versus 454.1$\pm$ 109.1 mm2/m2 and 534.9$\pm$ 148.4 mm2/m2][p<0.05], as was the ratio of PAI/DAI in the AVSD group [4.99$\pm$ 1.77 versus 2.89$\pm$ 0.81 and 3.6$\pm$ 0.92][p<0.05]. Despite similar Qp/Qs ratios, both the mean PA pressure and the Rp/Rs in the AVSD group was higher than the VSD and ASD groups: 43.1$\pm$ 15.6 mmHg versus 29$\pm$ 11.6 mmHg and 24$\pm$ 18.1 mmHg [p<0.05], and 0.27$\pm$ 0.22 versus 0.14$\pm$ 0.03 and 0.11$\pm$ 0.05 [p<0.05] respectively. The apparent hypoplasia of the descending aorta in infants with AVSD is an illusion created by the abnormally large pulmonary arteries, which are significantly larger than in patients with ASDs or VSDs.

The internal mammary artery has been advocated for use in bypass grafting owing to its superior long-term patency when compared to saphenous vein grafts. Concern exists that the flow through internal mammary artery may be inadequate during periods of peak myocardial demand when the internal mammary artery graft was used for proximal left anterior descending artery stenosis. This flow adequacy was investigated in 13 consecutive patients with a mean proximal left anterior descending artery stenosis of 84.2% who were selected for coronary bypass using internal mammary artery. We checked flow and diameter of left internal mammary artery without intraluminal dilatation just before anastomosis to left anterior descending artery during cardiopulmonary bypass. Clinical results were evaluated postoperatively with clinical symptoms, echocardiographies, stress tests, and coronary angiographies. The mean internal mammary artery flow measured just before anastomosis was 38ml/ min[range of 20 to 80ml /min] and its mean internal diameter 1.4mm. Maximal workload was improved from preoperative value of 6.3$\pm$2.5METS to postoperative value of 9.1$\pm$1.4 METS in 9 patients who Paired-test can be used. Cardiac symptoms recurred in two patients after bypass surgery, but they were not related to left internal mammary artery grafts. All patients were discharged in postoperatively 9.3 days[range of 7 to 20 days] after operation without mortality. Thus, on the basis of these findings, the internal mammary artery is a reasonable graft that we can routinely use for proximal left descending artery stenosis if internal diameter of the internal mammary artery is more than 1.0mm and its flow is more than 20ml /min at mean arterial pressure of 50 to 60mmHg during cardiopulmonary bypass.

The steady state close-contact melting phenomenon occurring between a phase change material and an isothermally heated flat plate with relative motion is investigated analytically, in which the effects of vertical convection in the liquid film and solid-liquid density difference are incorporated simultaneously. Not only the scale analysis is conducted to estimate a priori qualitative dependence of system variables on characteristic parameters, but also an analytical solution to a set of simplified model equations is obtained to specify the effects under consideration. These two results are consistent with each other, in that the vertical convection affects both the solid descending velocity and the film thickness, and that the density difference alters only the solid descending velocity. While the effect of vertical convection can be characterized conveniently by a newly introduced temperature gradient factor which asymptotically approaches the unity/zero with decreasing/increasing the Stefan number, that of density difference is represented by the liquid-to-solid density ratio. It is shown that the solid descending velocity depends linearly on the density ratio, and that the ratios of solid descending velocity, film thickness and friction coefficient to the conduction solution are proportional to 3/4, 1/4 and -1/4 powers of the temperature gradient factor, respectively. Also, established is the fact that the effect of convection can be legitimately neglected in the analysis for the range of the Stefan number less than 0.1.

Fair trade implies honest wages and eco-friendly products in keeping with the demands of ethical consumerism. Although consumers are presently more interested in fair trade products, it is hard to find aggressive marketing strategies for fair trade fashion products. Therefore, the purpose of this study investigates the effect of consumption propensity on fast and slow fashion goods consumption attitudes and purchase intention on fair trade fashion products. For method of this study, 229 questionnaires were distributed to consumers residing in Seoul, South Korea. The data from the 219 returned usable questionnaires was analyzed by Cronbach's alpha, factor analysis, regression analysis using SPSS 22.0. The results of this study were as follows: First, consumption propensities of spontaneity, histrionics, and imitative nature in descending order positively affect consumption attitude for fast fashion products. And green consumerism negatively affects consumption attitude for fast fashion products. Second, consumption propensity such as donation & sharing consumerism, ethical consumerism, green consumerism, histrionics, and imitative nature in descending order positively affect consumption attitude for slow fashion products. Third, slow and fast fashion products consumption attitude in descending order positively affect purchase intention on fair trade fashion products. Fourth, consumption propensities such as ethical consumerism, green consumerism, and donation & sharing consumerism in descending order positively affect purchase intention on fair trade fashion products. Therefore fair trade fashion products with various usages and sustainable high quality are promoted by differentiated marketing strategies.
