Objectives: This study was to propose a standardized method of retention enema by extracting elements associated with published experimental methods of retention enema. Methods: 1) Literature search (1) Data sources: Retrieval was made, using 'Enema' or 'Retention Enema' as search words in Medline, Cochrane library, KISS, RISS, and KDSL DB. (2) Study selection: Two authors excluded irrelevant papers and chose qualified abstracts from the rest of the papers. The chosen studies were reviewed fully by the authors so that they could screen the significant papers based on the exclusion criteria. (3) Data extraction: Data on the total number of subjects, the target disease, the animal species, the type, quality, length, and diameter of catheter, the insertion length of catheter, the sample, the sample volume, the process of retention enema and the number of retention enemas performed were extracted from the selected studies. 2) Performing preliminary experiments about the elements associated with experimental methods of retention enema. Results & Conclusions: The standardized experimental method is as follows: animal: 280-320g SD rat 1) inserting a rectal tube of 8 Fr that measures 8 cm into the animal's anus, 2) injecting herbal medicines at the volume of 6ml and 3) holding them for 10 minutes.

Purpose : To observe the effect of retention enema therapy Gamihongdeung-tang on experimentally induced endometriosis. Methods : Rats with surgically induced endometriosis were administered in Gamihongdeung-tang rectally. After treatment for 40 days, the serum concentrations of progesterone, estradiol, tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$(TNF-${\alpha}$),　interleukin(IL)-2,　IL-4, IL-6 and IL-10 were measured. Results : The size of the ectopic uterine implants in the treated group was much smaller than that in the control group. The concentration of estradiol was significantly lower in the experimental group than in the control group. The IL-4, IL-6 levels were significantly lower in the experimental groups than the control groups. TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-2 levels were lower and IL-10 level was higher in the experimental groups than in the control groups but the difference was not significent. The progesterone level was similar in the experimental and control group. Conclusion : These results indicate that Retention enema therapy with Gamihongdeung-tang reduces the size of ectopic uterine implants at the serosal wall and inhibits the growth of ectopic uterine implants. This suggests that retention enema therapy with Gamihongdeung-tang is an effective treatment for endometriosis.

Objectives The purpose of this study is to analyze recent Chinese randomized controlled trials on efficacy and safety of the retention enema with herbal medicine in pediatric diarrhea. Methods We searched the recent Chinese randomized controlled trials from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) by using key words; '保留灌腸', '小兒', '腹瀉' and '泄瀉' with data range from January $1^{st}$, 2010 to March $2^{nd}$, 2019. Year of the publication, demographic information, disease, intervention, outcome measure, results, adverse events and composition of herbal medicine were analyzed for this study. Results 19 out of 32 studies were selected and analyzed. The most commonly used herbal medicine was Galgeungeumlyeon-tang modification (葛根芩連湯加減), and the most widely used retention enema method was to retain for 15 minutes and administer twice a day for 3 days. In most of the studies, retention enema with herbal medicine in pediatric diarrhea showed significant efficacies. No adverse effects were reported from the studies. Conclusions The results of these studies from China showed that the retention enema with herbal medicine in pediatric diarrhea may be effective and safe.

Dansam, the root of Salvia miltiorrhiza BGE. (Labiatae), has a bitter and a slightly 'cold' property. and is nontoxic. It has been used for the treatment of diseases such as tumors, bruises, gynecologic diseases, menoxenia, anemia and so forth. As an oriental medicine pathway, anal therapy has many kinds of treatments, Retention enema is one the most useful, advantageous methods of anal therapy. This experiment was performed in order to study the effect of an aqueous extract of Salviae radix root(SRRAE) on Immediate type allergic reaction by Retention enema. The results were obtained as follows, 1. SRRAE inhibited compound 48/80-induced Immediate type allergic reaction 100% with the dose of 0.1g/kg by anal treatment. However, SRRAE showed no significant inhibitory effect on the same reaction by oral treatment. When mice were pretreated with SRRAE at a concentration ranging from 0.001 to 1.0g/kg, by intra-anal treatment, the serum histamine levels were reduced in a dose-dependent manner. 2. SRRAE also inhibited by 79.8% local cutaneous allergic reaction activated by anti-dinitrophenyl (DNP) IgE. 3. SRRAE close-dependently inhibited the histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells(RPMC) by anti-DNP IgE., but SRRAE not inhibited compound 48/80-induced histamine release. 4. SRRAE dose-dependently inhibited tumor necrosis $factor-\;{\alpha}$ $(TNF-\;{\alpha}$) production from RPMC by anti-DNP IgE. Moreover, the level of cAMP in RPMC, when SRRAE was added, significantly increased compared with that of a normal control. According to the above results, anal therapy(Retention enema) of SRRAE may be beneficial in the treatment of systemic and local Immediate type allergic reactions.
