The following result are obtained through that comparative study on the psychotherapy of oriental and occidental medicine. 1. The shamanism(祝由) and active emotion therapy(移精變氣療法) are a primitive form of psychotherapy. It is an opinion that between active emotion therapy(移精變氣療法) and psychoanalytic therapy or supportive psychotherapy are similar. Also, the basic cognition pattern of shamanism(祝由) is projection. 2. Taoism is inseparably related to the psychotherapy of korean oriental medicine, the major thought has become the ideal base of oriental psychotherapy. 3. According to study of clinical document in relation to oriental psychotherapy, psychotherapy had been widely used by medical cure. 4. The five emotion restraint therapy is a high level psychotherapy of oriental medicine. Oriental psychotherapy that disease caused by surprising must be cure by surprising is like to systematic desensitization in western, and that pseudopsychosis must be cure by patient rely on doctor is like to suggestive therapy in western. 5.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of short-wave therapy (SWT) for treatment of knee osteoarthritis (OA) as compared to placebo and control, and to assess the question of whether the effects are related to the mode, dosage, and application method. Methods: We searched randomized, placebo-controlled trials using electronic databases. We also manually reviewed sources in order to identify additional relevant studies. Results: Eight studies (597 participants) with OA were included in the meta-analysis. Pulse SWT had a significant effect on pain relief compared with control treatment, while did not favour compared with the placebo group. Pulse SWT had a significant effect on functional improvement compared with control and placebo treatment. Continuous SWT had no effect on pain relief and functional improvement. Capacitive SWT a significant effect on pain relief, functional improvement, and muscle strength. Continuous and capacitive SWT had increased muscle strength significantly. We found no clinical significance of all outcomes except pain and functional improvement in pulsed SWT with low dose. There was no difference in adverse events. None of the participants experienced any serious adverse events. Conclusion: Low dose pulsed SWT provided a short-term clinical benefit for pain relief and functional improvement. Pulsed SWD with low and high dose had effects on pain and function. There seems to be a placebo effect. We found significant effects on pain and function in capacitive SWT. Despite some positive findings, this analysis lacked data on how effectiveness is affected by mode, dosage, and application method of SWT. Further well-designed clinical studies are required in order to confirm the effectiveness of SWT.

Background: Headaches arising from cervical musculoskeletal disorders are common. Conservative therapies are recommended as the choice of first treatment. Evidence to the effects of manual therapy is inconclusive and available only during the short term. There is no evidence to exercise, and no study has investigated the effect of combined therapies for cervicogenic headache. Methods: In this study, 30 participants who met the diagnostic criteria for cervicogenic headache were randomized into two groups: experimental group and control group. The experimental group was performed myofascial release (MFR), Mulligan technique and self stretching exercises. The control group was performed electrical therapy and self stretching exercises. Assessments were performed to 30 participants before and after 4 weeks therapy. The components of assessments were headache intensity(HI), headcahe duration (HD), neck pain (NP) and neck disability index (NDI). Results: After 4 weeks therapy, HI, HD, neck pain and NDI were significantly reduced in both groups (p<.01). The HI, HD, neck pain and NDI were significantly reduced in experimental group more than in the control group (p<.01). Conclusions: Manual therapy could reduce the symptoms of cervicogenic headache.

본 연구는 소아 비만아들에 대한 임상영양교육 프로그램의 효과를 비만도, 혈액학적 변화, 생활습관의 변화 등을 통해 관찰하였다. 관찰기간이 서로 다른77명의 비만아를 대상으로4년간의 관찰 내용이 분석되었다. 특히 교육효과를 장기와 단기로 나누어 병원 내원 기간중의 단기적 체중, 혈청학적 변화뿐만 아니라 장기적인 식생활 습관의 변화 등으로 나누어 장단기 변화를 구분하여 관찰하였고 이들 장단기 변화에 영 향을 미치는 요인을 규명하고자 하였다. 연구결과 단기적(내원기간동안) 효과면에서 볼 때 BMI, % RBW에 의한 비만도 및 혈액지 질양상 등에서 수치가 낮아짐으로써 통계적으로 유의한 효과가 있었다. 이 중 혈청콜레스테롤의 농도는 평균 180.6 mg/dL에서 165.3 mg/dL으로 감소하여 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였고(P<0.05), 28.6%가 정상군으로 돌아왔다 장기 효과를 볼 때, BMI가 23.8$\pm$2.9로 최초 내원시 25.4$\pm$2.7보다 낮아졌으나 통계적으로 유의하지 않았으며, % RBW에 의한 비만도는 137.7$\pm$14.1에서 125.1$\pm$13.0으로 통계적으로 유의하게 감소하였다(p<0.05). 그러나 생활습관을 통해 관찰한 장기 효과는 1차 조사시 57.9점에서 2차 조사시 67.2점으로 통계적으로 유의하게 증가하여 (p<0.01), 임상영양교육후 생활습관이 장기적으로 개선되었음을 알 수 있었다 이는 교육의 효과라 할 수 있고 또한 고도 비만아의 경우 비만율이 현저히 떨어 져,42.9%가 정상군으로 돌아왔다. 단기 효과에 영향을 주는 요인으로는 단기내에 방문기간이 길수록, 방문횟수가 많을수록 교육 후 비만도가 감소하는 경향을 보인(p<0.001) 반면 월평균 교육참여 빈도는 비만치료효과에 긍정적 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 잦은 참여보다는 지속적이고 장기적인 참여와 관리가 더 효과적이라고 사료된다(p<0.05). 장기 효과와 관련된 관찰로는 방문기간이 길고, 횟수가 많을수록 긍정적 효과를 띠는 경향을 보여주었으나 통계적으로 유의한 수준은 아니었다. 이상의 결과를 요약해보면 임상영양교육프로그램은 적어도 BMI나 %RBW라는 관점에서 장단기 효과가 있었다. 그러나 장기 효과와 단기 효과에 영향을 미치는 요인에는 다소간의 차이가 있었다. 방문기간, 방문횟수 등은 단기 효과에 영향을 주는 요인이나 월평균 참여빈도 등은 별다른 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 장기 효과에 통계적으로 유의한 수준에서 영향을 주는 요인은 규명할 수 없었다. 이는 장기 효과에 영 향을 주는 요인은 단기 효과에서 나타난 총 방문 기간이나 방문횟수 이외의 사회심리적 요인이 복잡하게 작용했을 가능성을 본 연구 결과는 시사하고 있다.

Recombinant growth hormone (GH) is an effective treatment for short children who are born small for gestational age (SGA). Short children born SGA who fail to demonstrate catch-up growth by 2-4 years of age are candidates for GH treatment initiated to achieve catch-up growth to a normal height in early childhood, maintain a normal height gain throughout childhood, and achieve an adult height within the normal target range. GH treatment at a dose of $35-70{\mu}g/kg/day$ should be considered for those with very marked growth retardation, as these patients require rapid catch-up growth. Factors associated with response to GH treatment during the initial 2-3 years of therapy include age and height standard deviation scores at the start of therapy, midparental height, and GH dose. Adverse events due to GH treatment are no more common in the SGA population than in other conditions treated with GH. Early surveillance in growth clinics is strongly recommended for children born SGA who have not caught up. Although high dose of up to 0.067 mg/kg/day are relatively safe for short children with growth failure, clinicians need to remain aware of long-term mortality and morbidity after GH treatment.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the short-term outcomes of the trans anal one-stage pull-through procedure(TOP) in Hirschsprung's disease. Eight patients aged 3 weeks to 8 months with Hirschsprung's disease underwent this procedure. A rectal mucosectomy was performed from just proximal to dentate line to the level of peritoneal reflexion, where muscle layer was incised circumferentially. Rectosigmoid was mobilized out through the anus, and full-thickness frozen biopsy was taken for confirmation of ganglionic cells. After the rectal muscular cuff was divided longitudinally in the posterior aspect, aganglionic bowel was removed and ganglionic colon was anastomozed to the anus. The mean operating time was 161 minutes, and the mean hospital stay after operation was 3.8 days. Five patients had three to four bowel movement per day without other therapy at mean postoperative 39.2 days. Although long-term follow-up will be required, the TOP might be the new alternative surgical procedure for Hirschsprung's disease.

Background: The Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) approach is recognized in the field of health promotion as a way to optimize intervention for promoting health by taking into account specific social, economical, and institutional situations of the community. However, the CBPR approach has not been applied in the field of community-based rehabilitation. Objects: This study was conducted to explore the self-perceived satisfaction of therapists and disabilities on the Short-term Intensive Home-based Rehabilitation (SIHR) program developed using the CBPR approach as well as determine the points that need improvement. Methods: This research was conducted through in-depth interviews. The SIHR program was developed, applied, and evaluated by both the researchers and four therapists on the basis of the CBPR approach. The SIHR program was administered to four disability for 1 hour a day, 2 or 3 times a week, for 8 weeks, and their self-rehabilitation was monitored once a week for 4 weeks. After all intervention periods, in-depth interviews were conducted by using a semi-structured questionnaire for the therapists and disability. Results: The therapists were satisfied with the contents of the SIHR program, such as behavioral change technique and goal-directed training. They were also satisfied with the process of developing the program through a community network. Disabilities were satisfied with the therapists' persuasive and emotionally interactive way of delivering the SIHR program as well as the individually customized rehabilitation training and physical improvement. The short period (8 weeks) of the SIHR program was noted by both therapists and disabilities as the part that needs improvement. Conclusion: The SIHR program developed using the CBPR approach was feasible and satisfying to therapists and disabilities. However, a longer SIHR program should be developed. Community networks could help therapists effectively utilize community resources and thereby provide more rehabilitation program for persons with disability.

Full-mouth disinfection (Fdis) completes the entire scaling and root planing (SRP) in one stage within 24 hours for the prevention of microbial recolonization from untreated sites and ecological niches. The aim of this study is to compare the clinical short-term effects of modified Fdis with those of the conventional SRP in the therapy of moderate and severe chronic periodontitis. Modified Fdis group (5 patients) received the entire SRP within 24 hours using chlorhexidine solution (0.1%) and conventional SRP group (5 patients) received SRP per quadrant at one-week intervals. Clinical parameters were measured at baseline, one month and three months after both therapies. The results of this case report were as follows: 1. There were considerable decreases in sulcus bleeding index and plaque index one month after Fdis. 2. The mean probing depth of single-rooted teeth decreased more in Fdis group than conventional SRP group after therapy and, that of multi-rooted teeth decreased similarly in both groups. 3. The mean probing depth decreased 1.77mm in case of initial probing depth of 4-6mm and it decreased 4.13mm in case of initial probing depth of ${\geq}$ 7mm three months after Felis. 4. There were the smaller increases in gingival recession together with the larger gains in attachment in Fdis group than conventional SRP group after three months. Within the limitations of this study, one could conclude that Fdis has beneficial clinical effects in the treatment of moderate and severe chronic periodontitis and further research would be helpful including more subjects during a longer period to confirm the beneficial long-term effects of Fdis.

Objectives : This study is to evaluate the current situation of Japanese tourists for medical tour of Daejeon University hospital and to draw up a plan for better policies. Methods : 59 Japanese tourists visiting oriental medicines hospital of Daejeon University from January 2012 to September 2012, were analysed in the statistics. And 8 of them answer a questionnaire about reasons for selection of Daejeon University hospital, satisfaction for thread embedding therapy and side effects of thread embedding therapy. Results : A total of 59 foreigners visited oriental medicines hospital of Daejeon University for medical service, consisting of 54 females(92 %), the thirties to fifties 71 % by age. The 87.5 % of patients answered that the reason for choosing this hospital was the subsidization of the medical expenses, and 50 % for appropriate payment, 37.5 % for safety, 12.5 % for recommendation of the people who had good experience at this hospital. The 71% of patients selected thread-embedding therapy for treating wrinkles. The degree of satisfaction was evaluated as quite satisfaction of 87.5 %, full satisfaction of 12.5 % showing that a whole number of the patients treated with thread-embedding therapy showed relative satisfaction. This evaluation is, however, a short term survey which should lead to a further term study. For the evaluation of side effects of thread-embedding therapy, 75 % of patients answered as pain occurred during the therapy, 62.5 % as edema, 50 % as hypodermal bleeding. Conclusion : First of all, there should be more constructive promotion and support for medical tour of oriental medicines, ultimately leading to promoting better clusters of oriental medicines. Secondly, support in terms of a medical law should be established for medical disputes, and the best follow-up service should be considered.

Purpose: This study investigated the effect of the augmented reality (AR)-based knee joint short period exercise program and used a motion analyzer with a 3D camera to determine the range of motion and dynamic balance and further investigate the effects of therapeutic exercise on patients. Methods: This study used AR-based motion analysis and a Y-balance test to measure the range of motion (ROM) of each joint: the hip joint and the knee joint. After the measurements, an exercise program was applied to the subjects, using the knee motion program function, and the muscles of the quadriceps femoris and the hamstring were stretched or strengthened. Results: Our results showed knee joint extension at the dominant hip joint flexion position. While there was no significant difference (p>.05) at this position, there were significant differences in the non-dominant hips, unbalanced knee joint flexion, and superior knee joint flexion (p<.05). The Y-balance test using the non-dominant leg supported by the dominant legs showed that the absolute reach was $69.70{\pm}7.06cm$ before the exercise, and the absolute reach after the exercise was $77.56{\pm}6.09cm$ (p<.05). Conclusions: There was a significant difference when the movement of the lower limbs supported the superior limbs, and a significant difference was found in the ROM when the non-dominant side supported the dominant side. Therefore, the AR-based exercise program improves the balance of the human body and the range of motion of the joints, and research that aims to improve patients abilities should continue.
