Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify the needs of bio-signal devices for the diagnosis, assessment, and analysis of neurocognitive disorder in Korean medicine (KM) hospitals and clinics. Methods: A questionnaire was developed to survey the current status of medical device use, and diagnosis and interventions for patients with cognitive disorders in KM hospitals and clinics. November 11~December 2, 2019, 114 responses (71.9% completed) were collected by internet-based questionnaires from the members of the Korean society of Oriental Neuropsychiatry. Results: The clinical requests were in the descending order of hematology analyzer, ultrasound imaging system, and electroencephalography among the 15 most commonly used devices of which research would support for their clinical usability. The biosignal-based devices showed the highest research demands for patients with mild cognitive impairment rather than more severe stages of cognitive impairment. Prevention rather than diagnosis, or several treatment regimens was the strongest clinical area of the KM for patients with neurodegenerative cognitive impairment. Many responded that five to 10 minutes of test duration and 20,000 won to 30,000 won of cost would be appropriated for a new device to be developed. Conclusions: There were strong demands for the development of bio-signal devices for neurocognitive disorders among the KM doctors. Specifically, it showed high needs for the technology that can be used in the prevention area of cognitive disorders. Additionally, new medical devices to assess cognitive functions and to obtain KM pattern-related information were the high needs.

목 적 : 소아과 외래에서 흔히 접할 수 있는 질환 중 하나인 야뇨증의 진단을 위해서는 병력의 정보를 얻는 것이 중요하다. 그러나 한정된 외래진료 시간에 병력 청취가 쉽지는 않기 때문에 설문지를 이용하여 야뇨증 환아를 단일 증상 야뇨증군과 비단일증상 야뇨증군으로 분류하고 임상양상등을 비교하여 야뇨증의 병형별 진단 및 치료에 도움을 주고자 하였다. 방 법 : 2004년 1월부터 2005년 7월까지 영남대학교 의과대학 부속병원 소아과를 방문하여 야뇨증의 진단이후 첫 내원시 보호자의 동의하에 약물치료 전 약 2-3주의 야뇨일지를 관찰하는 동안 보호자가 환아의 배뇨 습관, 과거력, 치료에 대한 부모와 어린이의 자세 등을 포함한 설문지에 응답을 하여 설문지를 통한 병력청취가 이루어졌고, 이후 지속적인 치료 및 추적 관찰이 가능하였던 34명의 야뇨증 환아를 대상으로 하였다. 결 과 : 단일 증상성 야뇨증 환아는 21명, 비단일 증상성 환아는 13명이었으며, 발달 지연이 있었던 환아는 없었다. 환아 출생 시 분만법, 제대일수, 출생 시 체중, 형제 순서, 잠버릇, 변비, 치료성적에 따른 두 군의 차이는 없었다. 요로 감염의 빈도는 비단일 증상군에서 많았으며, 낮 동안 배뇨빈도와 알러지 병력은 비단일 증상군에서 높은 경향을 나타내었다. 전체 야뇨증 환아의 부모는 병원방문 전 전문 치료 방법으로 한방치료를 52.9%으로 가장 많이 이용하였으나 67.6%에서 효과가 없거나 빈도는 줄었지만 여전히 야뇨가 있다고 하였다. 결 론 : 병력 청취 설문지를 이용한 단일 증상군과 비단일증상군의 비교는 야뇨증 환아의 세부적 진단에 도움이 되며, 치료 방침을 결정하고 치료성적을 향상시키는데 유용한 자료로 기여할 것으로 기대된다. 또한 병원 방문 전 전문 치료로 한방 치료가 많이 선택되고 있어 부모들을 대상으로 야뇨증의 교육이 필요함을 알 수 있었다.

Objectives: This study was designed to analyze the results of body composition test by Oriental medical examination. The subjects were workers in the automobile manufacturing industry. Methods: The subjects consisted of 24,077 industrial workers who had received Oriental medical examination and completed questionnaires about drinking history and smoking history, during 9 months from March to November. They were categorized by sex, age, job class, drinking history and smoking history. The percentage of body fat(%BF) and abdominal obesity(AO) were measured by using bioelectrical impedance analysis (Jawon Medical, Seoul, Korea). We analyzed the relationship between sex, age, job class, drinking history, smoking history and %BF and AO using x$^2$-test of the SPSS Ver. 14.0. Results: Regarding the relationship between sex and %BF, AO, there was statistically significant difference as men had a significant higher level of %BF and AO than women. There was a positive correlation between age and both %BF and AO. Workers in their 40s especially showed a high level of AO. In job class, office workers and sales personnel were apt to have a higher level of %BF and AO than factory workers. %BF and AO of the drinker group showed a higher level than the non-drinker group. On the other hand, %BF and AO of the non-smoker group were higher than those of the smoker group. Conclusions: Companies should manage obesity closely and educate the workers to quit smoking for their health promotion. Furthermore, continuous health checkups need to be done systematically.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to examine sleeping patterns and diet patterns of the children in day-care centers in Seongdong-district and to find out the relationships between those two patterns and children growth. Methods : 686 day-care center kids participated in the examination. We measured their heights and weights. We also conducted a questionnaire survey (of them) on their sleeping patterns and diet patterns. Based on the findings, we have analyzed correlations of the factors. Results : 1. We have interviewed 686 children in day-care centers in Seongdong-district. Substantial survey was conducted to 672(14 kids didn't go through regular medical checkups). Their age ranged from 4 months to 120 months and weights covered from 6.20 kg to 50.80 kg with the average of 16.97kg. Their height ranges were from 70.4cm to 140.6cm and the average was 100.76cm. 2. The survey results showed that birth-height affects children's current height. The results from the group of age over 25months and the group covering 2 to 6 years indicated that birth-height affected the current height as well. However, the result from the age group over 37 months showed that birth-height didn't relate to the current height. 3. Results from questionnaires on sleeping patterns indicate that children sleeping longer are taller than the other. Results of other questionnaires showed no substantial relations to height. 4. Results from questionnaires on diet patterns, cold food eating habit affects growth. Conclusions : According to the results above, sleeping patterns substantially affects the growth. In order to find out, however, the specific relations between them, further research would be necessary.

We researched 992 outpatients who were treated at Department of Acupuncture & Moxibustion, National Medical Center from June 2001 to May 2002. The outpatients were classified into several groups according to visual acuity and age. Common predisposing factors of visual acuity decrease were assessed through questionnaires based on the Classics of the traditional oriental medical bibliography. The results are as follows; age distribution is 52.9$\%$ for female, 47.1$\%$ for male. The predisposing factors were ranked as poor posture(66.9$\%$), unbalanced diet(57.2$\%$), heredity(53.8$\%$), irregular diet habit(51.3$\%$) and so on.

Chronic headache is one of the most common symptoms of outpatients. There are many approaches to treat chronic headache, but it is difficult to be resolved completely. So analgesics-addicted patients are increased in numbers. Acupuncture and ear-acupuncture have been used for relief headache. But it is not sufficient to compare the effect of acupuncture on several chronic headache groups. Thus we investigate the effect of acupuncture and ear-acupuncture on several chronic headache groups and analgesics-abused groups. We researched 36 patients who were treated at Department of Acupuncture & Moxibustion, Kyung Hee Medical Center from August 1998 to July 1999. The chronic headache patients were classified into tension-type headache group, migraine group and unclassified headache group by Guide of IHS. Each group was treated with acupuncture and ear-acupuncture. The effect was assessed through questionnaires and self-rating headache index.
