Objective : The purpose of this report was to provide the information activity and safety of Palmul-tang by analyzing domestic/international papers and theses about Palmul-tang, Methods: Domestic/international papers and theses related to Palmul-tang were reviewed and analyzed, These papers were then classified by year, experimental method and subject, Results: The following results were obtained in this study. 1. The study of Palmul-tang started from 1985 and was continuously increased. The study was mainly forcused on experimental model rather than clinical study. 2. As these studies were classified by subject, papers related to immune intensification were most abundant by 20 papers, Besides there were several papers related to cardiovascular activity, reproductive activity, anti-apoptotic activity and cerebral hemodynamics. 3. Among the papers related to immune intensification. the studies on recovery of fatigue were mostabundant by 10 papers and the studies of on immune cell and cytokine express were six. In addition to. several studies were associated with anti-cancer activity and anti-allergic activity. Recovery of fatigue was determined by measurement of fatigue markers in a living body such as lactate. CPK, pyruvate and triglyceride and assessment of exercise capability of animals such as swimming test. slopped plate test. Rota-rod test, and activity cage test after Palmul-tang treatment. 4. According to experimental data. it is supported that Palmul-tang has been used as Qi and Blood intensifier with immune intensification and recovery of fatigue. 5. The paper related to safety of Palmul-tang was only one paper which is studied on acute toxicity of Palmul-tang with experiment with ICR mouse. There was no study on evaluating safety by observing liver and kidney functions after Palmul-tang treatment Conclusion: Palmul-tang is being used in various ways associating with immune intensification. cardiovascular activity and reproductive activity. However. studies on efficacy and mechanism of Palmul-tang should be conducted at the molecular biology level and studies on safety of Palmul-tang need to be completed at the clinical level.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of ILIB(Intravascular Laser Irradiation of blood) on Hyperfibrinogenemia. 20 patients with fibrinogen level of over $400mg／d{\ell}$ were treated with IUB. After !0 times' treatment, changes of fibrinogen level and clinical symptom were observed. The results were as follows: 1. Fibrinogen level was decreased in all of cases. 2. Most cases were suffered from neural symptoms(headache, palpitation, etc), circulatory symptoms (dizziness, numbness, deficiency of sensation, etc), musculo-skeletal symptoms(L.B.P, neck stiffness, arthralgia, etc.), fatigue, pollakiuria, constipation. After treatment, neural and circulatory symptoms were improved considerably.

We studied the effects of red ginseng on blood pressure (BP) and the quality of life (QOL) in 19 hypertensive patients treated with antihypertensive agents. Red ginseng was administered at a dosage of three grams a day for three months. Systolic blood pressure was significantly lowered during the administration period of red ginseng. while diastolic blood pressure and hear1 rate remained unchanged. QOL was significantly improved in $89\%$ of the patients. Among the QOL variables. sleep disorder. thirst. fatigue. mood. sexual life and general well-being were improved. Furthermore. an improved coefficient of variation of R-R intervals $(CV_{R-R})$ was observed during the period. A month after the cessation of red ginseng systolic blood pressure returned to the level before the administration and QOL variables detariorated to previous pre-treatment states. These results suggest that red ginsing may lower systolic blood pressure and may improve QOL in patients treated with antihypertensive agents.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the muscle anti-fatigue effects of Morindae officinalis Radix liquid extract. Methods: 4-6 weeks old ICR rats are used in the study, and we administered the extracts powder of Morinda officinalis concentration of 1, 10, 100mg/0.3 ml to each to rats(MO group) once a day for each 30 and 60 days. After 30 and 60 days, we examined the plasma concentraion of lactate dehydrogenase, glucose. And we measured the persistent time of swimming exercise test and conducted grip strength test Results: We found that there are no significantly differences between the control and the treatment group in the plasma concentration of activity level of lactate dehydrogenase. And we found that in 30days group, level of glucose concentration is significant. In swimming exercise test, as administration time and concetration growed up, swimming time is increased. And in grip strength test, as concentraion is growed up, grip strength is increased. Conclusion: This study show that Morinda officinalis is effective against muscle fatigue.

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of HBOT (hyperbaric oxygen therapy) on the pain, ROM (range of motion) and muscle fatigue recovery of DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness). Design: Randomized Controlled Trial. Methods: Twenty-six subjects who are student in their 20s at a university participated in this study, these subjects were assigned into two groups, a control group (n=12) and an experiment group (n=14). The subjects in experimental group were intervened by HBOT (40 minutes, 1.3 ATA), while ones on control group weren't by any intervention after induced DOMS. Results: First, in the comparison of VAS (visual analog scale), there were significant variations with the period (p<0.001), interaction of period (p<0.05) and group (p<0.05). In the comparison of PPT (pressure pain threshold), there were significant variations with the period (p<0.001) and interaction of period (p<0.05). Second, in the comparison of ROM, there were significant variations with the period (p<0.001), interaction of period (p<0.001) and group (p<0.01). Third, in the comparison of CK (creatine kinase) and LDH (lactate dehydrogenase), there no signigicant variations with all measure variables. Conclusion: The above results indicated that HBOT were effective to decrease the pain and improve the ROM in DOMS. Also the statistical significant variations of blood factors of muscle fatigue were not found in this.

Renal Failure is called a disorder of kidney excretion induced by glomerulus filtration rate(GFR) decrease. GFR is measured by Blood Urea Nitrogen(BUN) and Cretinine in blood. This study is about Oriental diagnosis and treatment of Chronic renal failure(CRF) patients. We treated five cases which were diagnosed as CRF by using methods used in oriental medicine, the application of Youkmijihwang-tang(六味地黃湯加減). In most such cases, we concluded that the results turns better as the symptoms like fatigue and digestive disorder decreases and the decrease of BUN and Creatinine in blood as well.

To find the cause, pathology, oriental presciptions for SLE(systemic lupus erythematous) in the field of oriental medicine, we studied the clinical reports. The results were obtained as follows: 1. SLE can' be thought to be a category of chronic fatigue, numbness, yang poison' & erythema. 2. The chief cause of SLE could be a febrile poison and the lack of physiological fluid and the mechanism was that febrile poison attacted area of circulation and blood and injuried the physiological fluid to arise edema and clotted blood. 3. The therapy of SLE was chiefly clarifying heat and toxiciding in acute stage while reinforcing kidney and liver and supplementing Yin & clarifying in chronic stage, sometimes supplementing Qi, eliminating clotted blood, excuding wind and draining water could be applied. 4. The therapy for SLE nephritis was shown to be increasing yin and clarifying heat with toxiciding, reinforcing spleen and kidney, draining water, supplementing yin & Qi etc. The chief prescriptions were Seogakjihwangtang(犀角地黃湯), Wookakjihwangtang(牛角地黃湯), yeechihwan(二至丸), Daepowonjeon(大補元煎), Daepoeumhwan(大補陰煎), Kikukjihwangtang(杞菊地黃湯), Yookmijihwangtang(六味地黃湯) which indicates Rhemanniae radix added prescrition could be used chiefly for the treatment of SLE.
