Objectives The purpose of this study is to present evidence by analyzing the research trends in acupuncture treatment in the last 10 years for thromboangiitis obliterans. Methods Randomized controlled trials about acupuncture on thromboangiitis obliterans were searched China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System (OASIS), ScienceON, Koreanstudies Information Service System (KISS) and Research Information Sharing Service (RISS) from January 1, 2011 to November 13, 2021. Only randomized controlled trials were selected and we assessed the risk of bias (RoB) according to the revised Cochrane RoB2 criteria. Results A total of 5 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were selected in this review and all were conducted in China. A total of 326 participants were in 5 RCTs. SP10, ST36, GB34 was the most commonly used treatment point. There were four types of acupuncture used: manual acupuncture, embedding acupuncture, pharmacopuncture, electroacupuncture. The most commonly used indicator for evaluation was the total efficacy rate, and all five studies were significantly higher. Conclusions All selected studies showed the group treated with acupuncture treatments on thromboangiitis obliterans were statistically more effective than the control group. However, the number of studies is too small and the interpretation of the results is limited due to the inclusion of subjective evaluation. So more objective and systematic studies should be conducted continuously.

Objectives: This study presents evidence by analyzing the research trends in acupuncture treatment for cluster headache in the last 10 years. Methods: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about acupuncture for cluster headache were searched from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System, ScienceON, Korean Studies Information Service System, and Research Information Sharing Service. The search terms were the combinations of "cluster headache", "acupuncture", and "needle therapy", and the articles were restricted to those published between 2013 and 2023. Only RCTs were selected. The risk of bias (RoB) was assessed according to the revised Cochrane RoB2 criteria. Results: Six RCTs were selected and analyzed in this review. All selected studies were conducted in China. All RCTs comprised 628 participants. Manual acupuncture was used in all studies. Acupuncture targeting the sphenopalatine ganglion was performed in two papers published after 2020. ST8, Ex-HIN3, and GB14 were the most frequently used acupoints in acupuncture treatment. The most commonly used indicators for evaluation were headache attack frequency, clinical efficacy, and the visual analog scale. In each study, adding acupuncture treatment to conventional therapy had significant effects in relieving the symptoms of cluster headaches. Conclusion: The results suggest that acupuncture is an effective treatment for cluster headache. To ensure objective evidence for the effectiveness of acupuncture treatment in cluster headache, it is important to continue large-scale case reports and RCTs.

Objectives This review was conducted to evaluate the therapeutic effects of manual acupuncture (MA) for shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS). Methods We searched 12 electronic databases (DBpia, Korean studies Information Service System [KISS], Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System [OASIS], Research Information Sharing Service [RISS], China National Knowledge Infrastructure [CNKI], CINAHL, Clinical Key, Cochrane Library, Embase, JAMA, PubMed, Web of Science) to find randomized-controlled clinical trials (RCTs) investigating therapeutic effects of MA for treating SIS. Shoulder Pain and Disability Index scores and numeric pain rating scale or visual analogue scale were analyzed as the main evaluation criteria. Results Among 181 studies, 169 were screened and only 12 RCTs were eligible in our review. Finally, 11 RCTs could be statistically analyzed. MA was more effective than sham treatment and physical therapy in terms of reducing pain (p=0.003, p=0.0007 each). Electroacupuncture (EA) showed more significant effect than physical therapy (PT) for improving shoulder pain (p<0.00001) and shoulder functionality (p<0.00001). Conclusions These results suggest that MA and EA could be superior option for treating SIS than sham treatment or PT. However this review has its limitations due to the small sample size and lack of well-designed RCTs that were included in the study. Further well-designed RCTs are necessary to provide high-level evidence.

오늘날 자원의 보고라 할 수 있는 웹에는 자연어로 표현된 텍스트와 테이블들로 구성된 무수히 많은 문서들이 존재하고 있다. 이러한 웹 문서들로부터 규칙을 습득하고 습득된 규칙과 웹 문서간의 일관성을 유지하기 위해, 본 논문에서는 확장형 규칙 표식 언어 (extensible Rule Markup Language, XRML) 체계를 개발하였다. XRML은 웹 페이지에 내재되어 있는 규칙을 식별하여 자동으로 정형화된 규칙을 생성할 수 있도록 지원하는 규칙 식별 표식 언어 (Rule Identification Markup Language, XRML)와 구조화된 규칙 표현을 위한 규칙 구조 표식 언어 (Rule Structure Markup Language)로 구성된다. 특히, RIML은 HTML안에 내재되어 있는 규칙을 HTML 문서에 직접 명시할 수 있도록 설계되었기 때문에, RIML을 통해 웹페이지에 있는 규칙들을 식별하고 이 식별된 규칙은 RSML으로 표현된 정형화된 규칙으로 자동 변환될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 RIML의 설계 시 웹페이지로부터 규칙을 식별하는 과정에서 발생하는 공유되는 변수 (variables) 및 값 (values),생략된 어구 ,동의어와 같은 몇 가지 중요한 현상들을 발견하고 이를 해결하고자 하였다. 제안된 XRML 접근 방법의 성능을 측정하고자, 3개의 대표적인 온라인 서점인 Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, Powells.com의 실제 웹페이지들로부터 배송 및 환불과 관련된 규칙을 습득하여 XRML의 효과를 측정하는 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과에 따르면, 웹페이지로부터 규칙은 $97.7\%$의 매우 높은 정확성을 가지고 습득되었으며, 생성된 규칙의 완전성은 $88.5\%$로 측정되어, XRML이 특정 주제에 관한 전문가 시스템을 구축하기 위해 웹페이지로부터 규칙을 추출할 때 효율적인 도구가 될 수 있음이 예시되었다.
