The present study was carried out to determine if Scutellaria balicalensis Georgi. extract (SBGE) exerts beneficial effect against the renal failure in rabbits. Rabbits were pretreated with SBGE orally for 7 days, followed by cisplatin injection (5 mg/kg, i.p.), cisplatin injection caused an increase in serum creatinine level, which was accompanied by a reduction in GFR. The fractional excretion of Na+, K+, glucose, and phosphate increased in cisplatin-treated animals, which was prevented by SBGE pretreatment. The uptake of p-aminohippurate, an organic anion, in renal cortical slices was inhibited by the administration of cisplatin, and the effect was prevented by SBGE. cisplatin injection increased lipid peroxidation, which was prevented by SBGE pretreatment. These results indicate that lipid peroxidation plays a critical role in cisplatin-induced acute renal failure. SBGE exerts the protective effect against acute renal failure induced by cisplatin, and its effect may be attributed to an antioxidant action.

This study was carried out to investigate the acute toxicity of G. bimaculatus in Sprague-Dawley rats. G. bimaculatus was administered orally at doses of 8, 40, 200, 1000 and 5000 mg/kg. in this study, number of deaths, clinical sign, body weights, and pathological examination were investigated for 14 days after administration of G. bimaculatus. The results indicate that G. bimaculatus did not show any toxic effect in rats and oral $LD_{50}$ value was over 5000 mg/kg in Sprague-Dawley rats.

Acute oral toxicity studies of KDRD-002 (Coriolus versicolor polysaccharide :DDB= 19.2:1) were carried out in Sprague-Dawley rats of both sexes. In this study, we daily examined number of deaths, clinical signs, body weights and pathological examinations for 7 days after single oral administration of KDRD-002 with different dose levels. KDRD-002 did not show any toxic effect in rats and oral LD$_{50}$ value was over 3.25 g/kg in rats.s.

Gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) is an antibody-targeted chemotherapeutic agent consisting of calicheamicin, a potent cytotoxic antibiotic linked to a recombinant humanized anti CD33 monoclonal antibody directed against the CD33 antigen present on leukemic myeloblasts in most patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). GO is indicated for the treatment of patients with CD33 positive AML in first relapse who are 60 years of age or older and who are not considered candidates for cytotoxic chemotherapy. GO has shown moderate activity as a single agent in patients with CD33-positive refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukaemia, with more promising results in acute promyelocytic leukaemia. The side effect profile may be an improvement on conventional chemotherapy, except for a higher frequency of veno-occlusive disease or sinusoidal obstructive syndrome, especially after a subsequent haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Because of the different mechanisms of action and non-overlapping toxicities, the integration of this immunoconjugate with standard chemotherapy is a rational approach.

Clinical symptoms of acute stroke include loss of consciousness, aphasia, dysphagia, hemiplegia, without urination or defecation, headache, dizziness, chest discomfort, etc. As methods of oriental medical treatment at acute stroke state, acupuncture, fumigating, emetic, sternutatory therapy etc. were known. We treated a 69-year-old female patient who was unconscious after acute stroke with acupuncture and herbal medicine. Also, we chose Croton seed (Crotonis Fructus) Tansy (Artemisiae Argi Folium)-hwan for treatment and fumed it on the patient's nose once a day. After 7 days of treatment with fumigating therapy, we observed improvement in consciousness on the Glasgow coma scale, and other symptoms (aphasia, dysphagia, hemiplegia, without urination or defecation)

Objectives : This study was performed to review the research trends in treatment for acute alcohol intoxication in traditional Chinese medicine. Methods : 19 studies were selected by searching CNKI(China National Knowledge Infrastructure) from 2006 to 2011, and we performed a systemic review of them. Results : All studies are controlled clinical trials using pharmacopuncture therapy. Each experimental group was given various kinds of pharmacopuncture therapy, whereas each control group was given another western medicine or treatment. Emergent treatment was used in both groups. The results of 15 studies showed that pharmacopuncture therapy has an effect on the treatment of acute alcohol intoxication. However the quality of these clinical trials wasn't high. Conclusions : It seems that the researches for acute alcohol intoxication have been performed actively in traditional Chinese medicine. We hope that our study can activate clinical research for this disorder in Korean traditional medicine.

Morphology of contemporary city streets is composed of overlapping infrastructures corresponding to the new street within the established organization, contemporary system, future circumstance, and population. As well, two overlaid organizations and morphological, historical, social and physical development lead to sharp acute algle(triangular) site, and the architecture in this site has a restriction on the availability of the internal space and the external design due to outside shape sharpness. We want to have a positive effect on the internal and external design of the architecture in the future by categorization of the shape and processing characteristics of the acute angle corner of the trilateral site. The characteristics and design categorization shown in this case study are as follows. Constitution a unique and independent form, lead streets and shape a exclusive image of the landscape, alleviate sharpness by configuring a acute angle point as a plane, use void to give reserve character, replace roundness for companionability to induce ambience in the road, embrace the characteristics of the site and create internal spaces and functions, emphasize the characteristics of each stairs, retain of uniqueness and highlight the characteristics of a vertical elements.

Purpose: Numerous studies have investigated the pattern of traumatic death with a focus on the injury mechanism, the severity of the injury and the presence of hemorrhage. Acute coagulopathy has been treated as only one of many complications. The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of acute coagulopathy on acute and early death due to trauma. Methods: A retrospective analysis of trauma patients with injury severity score (ISS)${\geq}25$ who had been treated between January 2011 and December 2012 was conducted. Based on the time of injury, traumatic death was categorized into acute (within 48 hours) and early (from 3 to 7 days). The correlations between various parameters within 24 hours after injury and time of death were analyzed. Results: A total of 124 patients were enrolled. Of them, 8.1% (n=10) of the patients experienced acute mortality. For those patients, significant differences in initial systolic blood pressure, coagulopathy score, amount of transfusion, abbreviated injury scale of the head and neck, the abdomen and the extremities were noted. Early mortality was experienced by 7.0% (n=8) of the patients, only coagulopathy score was found to be a significant independent risk factor for acute (odds ratio: 3.127; 95% confidence interval: 1.185-8.252; p=0.021) and early mortality (odds ratio: 2.470; 95% confidence interval: 1.029-5.929; p=0.043). Conclusion: Acute traumatic coagulopathy has an important role in the mortality, even after the acute phase. Early management and prevention of acute coagulopathy may improve survival of trauma patients.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to research the effect of bloodletting therapy and Alunitum-spread at palatine tonsil in acute tonsillitis. Methods : We reviewed medical records of 61 young patients of acute tonsillitis who had taken bloodletting therapy and Alunitum-spread from May 2003 to March 2011 in Samsung oriental medicine clinic. Results : There were 39 boys and 22 girls. Between 5 and 6 years-old group was more than the others. Between 3 and 4 days group was the first in duration of disease. Winter was the first and then spring, fall and summer in distribution of season. Between 9 and 10 days group was 22 patients, which was the first in duration of treatment. it was the first to have no history of acute tonsilitis group, and then cold, allergic rhinitis, laryngopharyngitis, acute tonsillitis and tympanitis. There were 41 patients who came to Samsung oriental medicine clinic the first and then western clinic, home remedy and other oriental clinic. Sore throat was the first sympton and then runny nose, high fever, nasal congestion and cough in companied symptom. Conclusions : Bloodletting therapy and Alunitum-spread were useful to improve acute tonsillitis.
