Objectives: The purpose of this study is to identify the effectiveness of fumigation treatment, provide a clinical basis for fumigation therapy, and develop treatment protocols through consideration of treatment methods and herbal medicines. Methods: We searched for randomized controlled clinical trials using fumigation treatment on mycotic vaginitis in 8 electronic databases such as EMBASE, Pubmed, and CNKI. The results of the studies were analyzed and the risk of bias was assessed by using Cochrane risk of bias tool. A meta-analysis was performed to reveal the effectiveness of fumigation compared to control treatments. Results: We finally selected 5 studies among 54 articles according to inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria. In all selected studies, herbal fumigation was more effective than any control treatment and all the studies were statistically significant. Conclusions: The study provides a basis for applying fumigation treatment to patients with mycotic vaginitis and helps developing a treatment protocol of caring patients of mycotic vaginitis. But the limitation of this study is that the number of studies included is small and quantitative synthesis of all results has not been achieved.

Objectives This research aimed to investigate recent clinical treatment of herbal medicine fumigation for plantar fasciitis. Methods We searched recent clinical studies regarding herbal medicine fumigation in traditional Chinese medical journals on plantar fasciitis through the China Academic Journal (CAJ). Clinical articles published from 2012 to July 2022 were analyzed. This study examined the types of study, periods, herbal medicine, assessment, and risk of bias and conducted a comparative evaluation of herbal medicine fumigation added to other treatments. Results Ten studies were selected from 52 studies. Eight studies were classified as randomized controlled trial. Various assessment scales were used. Most treatments were administered for approximately 20 to 30 min once daily. Most studies revealed that herbal medicine fumigation is effective for plantar fasciitis. Conclusions Most studies showed that herbal medicine fumigation is effective for plantar fasciitis. More studies are needed for Korean medicine development.

Background: Dazomet are widely used as soil fumigant to solve soilborne problems, and the degradation intermediates are toxic to nematodes, fungi, bacteria, insects and weeds. Methods and Results: The effects of cultivation of green manure crop, maize before and after soil fumigation on the control of ginseng root rot disease were compared using soil where 6-years-old ginseng was harvested. Fumigant (dazomet) were used for soil fumigation in May and September, respectively. Maize was grown for soil management before and after soil fumigation. After May fumigation, the sowing date of maize was delayed by 15 days and thus its dry weight was decreased significantly. Maize cultivation after May fumigation increased pH but decreased EC, $NO_3$, $P_2O_5$, and K significantly. Maize cultivation after May fumigation decreased fungi population and the ratio of fungi and bacteria. Growth of 2-years-old ginseng was improved and the incidence of ginseng root rot was significantly decreased by maize cultivation after May fumigation. After harvesting 2-years-old ginseng, the population of Cylindrocarpon destructans was not different between treatment of May and September, but Fusarium solani showed a significant increase in September fumigation after maize cultivation. Conclusions: Maize cultivation after soil fumigation was effective in inhibiting ginseng root rot by the amendment of mineral composition and microorganism in fumigated soil.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to review the recent clinical study trends on Korean Medicine treatment for vaginitis during pregnancy. Methods: We searched articles published from electric databases including Oasis, KISS, Pubmed, and CNKI. The period was set from 2012 to 2021. Searched keywords were "임신 중 질염", "한약", "Vaginitis during pregnancy", "Herbal medicine", "妊娠合并阴道炎", "中药". Results: 34 articles were finally selected. Except 1 case series study, there were 33 RCTs, 1 article of which used both herbal decoction and herbal fumigation for treatment group (TG) ; 18 employed herbal fumigation only, and 14 took both herbal fumigation and western medicine. The total effective rate or cure rate in TGs, regardless of treatment methods, was higher than that of control group in all RCT studies. Conclusions: Our review found that Korean medicine alone or combined with western medicine is more effective for alleviating symptoms of vaginitis during pregnancy than the control group.

Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) has occurred on fields annually disease occurrence rates were 73.3% in 2005, 53.3% in 2006 and 41.6% in 2007 at Anyang area in Gyeonggi Province. Seasonal occurrence pattern of TSWV showed a dramatic increase from 8.7% in late May to 30.1 % in early June in 2007 at Anyang area, coincided with the high population of a thrip, Frank-liniella occidentalis at that time. The rate of viruliferous thrips with TSWV on lettuce and red pepper was 20.2% and 52.1%, respectively, in greenhouses. Dazomat, soil fumigation pesticide, reduced TSWV disease incidence drastically on table tomato as treatment the chemical into the soil with humidity in early spring in 2006 and 2007. Spraying insecticide periodically after treatment with Dazomat was more effective to control TSWV than spraying if on plants or applying into the soil of the insecticide during growing season. Control efficiency through treatments both of the soil fumigation and of spraying insecticide was significantly high with 85.3% in 2006 and 87.8% in 2007. Removing the potential vector from the soil of TSWV infested area can be an effective strategy for reducing TSWV disease.
