Objectives This study aimed to provide a basis for treatment of soyang person by investigate published case series of soyangin Methods We have reviewed case series of soyangin in the Journal of Sasang Medicine from 2007 to 2016. Results A total of 16 case series related to soyangin were reported. Among them, herbal medicine was used in 16 papers (100.0%), of which 'Hyeongbangjihwang-tang' was the most frequently used, reported in five papers (31.3%). For acupuncture of 12 papers (75.0%), acupoint 'ST36' was the most frequently used, reported in four papers (33.3%). Conclusions Most of the included case series were effective in treating patients of soyangin. However, the number of papers was insufficient to suggest standardized treatment for "diseases-Sasang medicine pattern-treatment" systems.

Craniopharyngiomas exhibiting histologic malignancy are extremely rare. Herein, we report the case of a 26-year-old male patient who underwent suprasellar mass excision via an interhemispheric transcallosal approach. Histopathological examination indicated that the craniopharyngioma was of the adamantinomatous subtype. The patient received postoperative medical treatment for endocrine dysfunction and diabetes mellitus without radiation treatment. Two years after the operation, he presented with progressive visual disturbance and altered mentality. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a huge mass in the suprasellar cistern and third ventricle. He underwent a second operation via the same approach. The histopathological examination showed an adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma with sheets of solid proliferation in a spindled pattern, indicating malignant transformation. Malignant transformation of craniopharyngioma in the absence of radiation therapy has been reported in only five cases, including this one. We present a case of malignant transformation of craniopharyngioma with a brief review of relevant literature.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to examine the significance of Korean Medical literature on representative symptoms of postpartum deep venous thrombosis (DVT), such as lower extremity edema and pulmonary embolism. Methods : Pattern differentiation, cause, symptoms and treatment related to DVT and pulmonary embolism as written in Korean Medical texts were studied comparatively. Results : In Korean Medical understanding, DVT could be linked to lower extremity edema due to blood stagnation, while pulmonary embolism could be linked to coughing, asthma and nose bleed due to stagnated blood. Conclusions : To prevent relapse and manage its after-effects, Korean Medical treatment for DVT and pulmonary embolism is much in need.

This review paper discusses the relevance and potential importance of food-feed systems in Asian agricultural systems, and in particular the role and contribution of legumes to these systems. A food-feed system is one that maintains, if not increases, the yield of food crops, sustains soil fertility, and provides dietary nutrients for animals. It involves a cropping pattern within which the feed crop has many beneficial effects without competing for land, soil nutrients and water with the food crops. The agricultural environment is described with reference to the priority agro-ecological zones and prevailing mixed farming systems in Asia. Within these systems, animal production is severely hampered by critical feed shortages which can however, be alleviated by the integration of suitable leguminous forages into the cropping systems. The review also focuses on the role and potential importance of leguminous forages in terms of biodiversity, their uses in farming systems, beneficial effects on animal performance, and draws attention to six case studies in different countries that clearly demonstrate many benefits of developing such food-feed systems. Considerable opportunities exist for widening the use of forage legumes in the development of systems with several complementary advantages (e.g. fenceline, cover crops, fodder banks, forage source and erosion control) to improve the development of sustainable crop-animal systems in Asia.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the nature and the pattern of oral book reviewing in order to prepare the methodological basis of systematic education and training for the oral book reviewer Students should have opportunities to exercise themselves in oral book reviewing. We need experienced teachers, space, facilities, and supplies to train them to be a member of reviewer group at modern intellectual society. And there are so many prerequisites like good copy, delivery technique, understanding the specialty of broadcasting language and the distinctions of the oral review from the written review for successful performance as reviewer.

Objective : To research the trends of study related to myofascial pain syndrome(MPS) and acupuncture in PubMed, and to establish the hereafter direction of myofascial pain syndrome(MPS) with acupuncture. Methods : We searched in PubMed, with myofascial pain syndrome and acupuncture, trigger point and acupuncture limitted by abstract. Results : 1. The pattern of the study was as follows : Review article(11), Clinical(11) rondomized controlled trials(21). We further estimated 24 articles. 2. Many of these studies provide equivocal results because of designs, sample size and the other, affirmative view is 10 articles, contradictive view is 6 articles, and somewhat reservative regards are 8 articles for therapeutic effect of myofascial pain syndrome with acupuncture. 3. Suggestions on further endolphin related research, neurophysiology, biophysics and phamacology are made. 4. More clinical data would be needed to prove effects of myofascial pain syndrome with acupuncture.

Evaluation Project on Appropriate Prescribing (EPAP) which is analysing prescribing pattern and providing physicians feedback has begun in 2001. EPAP indicators are related to antibiotics for acute respiratory tract infections, overuse of injection, polypharmacy (no. of drugs prescribed together, no. of prescriptions with 6 or more drugs), prescribing of specific medication group (drugs for acid related disorders, NSAIDs, corticosteroids) and medication expenditure per prescription day. The aim of this study was to suggest a development plan for EPAP indicators suitable for domestic situation. A consensus group consisting of seventeen health care professionals evaluated significance of each therapeutic class for EPAP indicators expansion considering information such as magnitude of issue, prescribing indicators of foreign countries, reimbursement criteria by each therapeutic class. Based on the data and group survey, 5 classes were selected as candidates for prescribing indicators and we presented 24 indicators regarding 5 classes. The results suggested that we need to augment evaluation indicators of additional area.

사이버 침해공격은 단순히 사이버 공간에만 피해를 주는 것이 아니라, IoT/CPS와 연결되면서 실생활에 큰 피해를 줄 수 있는 중요한 문제로 대두되었다. 이러한 사이버 침해공격의 대부분은 악성코드를 사용하고 있으며, 점차 지능화된 형태로 발전하고 있다. 이에 대응하고자 다양한 악성코드 분석기술이 출현해왔으며, 최근의 연구들은 대부분 머신러닝을 이용하여 기존에 진행했던 Pattern, Heuristic 기반의 한계들을 보완하려 노력하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 머신러닝을 이용한 악성코드 분석기술의 동향을 기술하였다. 특히, 머신러닝을 이용한 악성코드 분석 목적을 7개로 분류하였고, 악성코드 분석에 핵심이 되는 Key Feature들에 대해 소개하였다. 본 논문을 통해, 다양한 악성코드 분석 방법에 있어 새로운 Approach로 연결되는 계기가 되기를 기대한다.

We experienced a very rare case of pulmonary blastoma in a 29 year old female. She complained of left chest pain and dyspnea for 1 month. The characteristic feature of this tumor is it`s biphasic pattern consisting of a spindle cell stroma containing glandular structures. A serial check of simple chest X-ray and computed tomography revealed a growing huge lung mass occupying whole left thorax. We successfully removed the upper lobe of left lung with a huge tumor mass. Pathologic study revealed this tumor as pulmonary blastoma. We report a case with review of literature.

Hydrocephalus is usually defined as the condition of ventricular dilatation due to the overproduction of cerebrospinal fluid[CSF] or dysfunction of absorption. The pattern of the CSF circulation may change after a cranioplasty secondary to previous decompressive craniectomy for refractory intracranial hypertension after head injury. The effect of the cranioplasty on CSF hydrodynamics has not been explored exactly. We report two cases of acute hydrocephalus developed after cranioplasty and discuss about the clinical importance with review of literatures.
