  • 목적: 사시 질환은 어느 연령대에서도 발병 가능하며 다양한 기능적 또는 비기능적 안과적 문제를 발생시킬 수 있다. 인구 기반 연구를 통해 다양한 인구역학적 요인에 따른 한국의 사시, 눈떨림 등을 포함한 사시 질환의 유병률을 확인하고자 한다. 대상과 방법: 2008년 7월부터 2011년 12월까지 실시된 국민건강영양조사(National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, n=30,538)의 자료를 사용하여 분석하였다. 사시와 눈떨림의 유병률을 파악하고, 관련된 인구역학적 요인에 대해 평가하였다. 결과: 3세 이상에서 사시 및 눈떨림 환자의 전체 유병률은 $1.4{\pm}0.1%$ (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.3-1.6%, 남자 $1.5{\pm}0.1%$, 여자 $1.3{\pm}0.1%$)였다. 외사시(15프리즘디옵터 이상), 내사시(10프리즘디옵터 이상), 수직 편위, 기타 복잡한 사시 및 눈떨림의 유병률은 각각 1.0%, 0.2%, 0.2%, 0.1% 및 0.1%였다. 유병률은 6-15세 연령층에서 가장 높았으며($1.9{\pm}0.3%$), 40-49세($0.8{\pm}0.1%$)에서 가장 낮았다(p=0.005). 성별, 지역, 주거 지역, 가구 소득, 교육 수준 및 직업과 관련하여 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다. 결론: 국민건강영양조사 자료를 분석한 결과 한국의 인구역학적 요인에 따른 사시 질환의 유병률은 연령 집단을 제외하고는 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 향후 사시 질환의 유병률과 관련된 추가적인 다른 보건 및 사회적 지표들의 검토가 유병률 연구에 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.

  • Background: Allergic rhinitis(AR) is a heterogeneous disorder that despite its high prevalence is often undiagnosed. It is characterized by one or more symptoms including sneezing, itching, nasal congestion, and rhinorrhea. And it is frequently accompanied by symptoms involving the eyes, ears, and throat, including postnasal drainage. There are many different causes of rhinitis in children and adults. Approximately 50$\%$ of all cases of rhinitis are caused by allergy. In the case of rhinitis caused by allergens, symptoms arise as a result of inflammation induced by a gamma globulin E-mediated immune response to specific allergens such as pollens, molds, animal dander, and dust mites. The immune response involves the release of inflammatory mediators and the activation and recruitment of cells to the nasal mucosa. AR is similar to 鼻?, hypersensitive rhinitis in Oriental Medicine. I think hypersensitive rhinitis is including of AR, vasomotor rhinitis and non-allergic rhinitis related with eosinophil increased and so on. Purpose: To perform a clinical analysis of hypersensitive rhinitis including allergic rhinitis and estimate the efficacy of Oriental Medical treatment. Objective: We studied 96 patients who had visited our hospital with complaints of nasal symptoms from March 2000 to February 2002; they had the signs more than 2 - nasal obstruction, watery discharge, sneezing and eye or nasal itching. Parameters Observed & Methods: We treated them with acupuncture & herb-medication. Sometime they used aroma oil or external medicine. 1) the distribution of sex & age groups 2) the clinical type based on duration & the severity of symptom 3) the breakdown of complication & pasl history of Otolaryngologic or allergic disease 4) the clinical assessment and classification of rhinitis(sneezers and runners & blockers) 5) the associated symptoms and signs 6) the classification of Byeonjeung 7) the classification of prescriptions and 8) the efficacy of treatment. Result: 1. In the clinical type of based on duration, the intermittent type was 42.7$\%$ and the persistent was 57.3$\%$. 2. We observed the severity of symptoms based on the quality of life. The mild type was 24.0$\%$ and the moderate-severe was 76.0$\%$. 3. In the clinical assessment and classification of rhinitis, the sneezers and runners type was 69.8$\%$ and the blockers was 30.2$\%$. 4. The most common family history with otolaryngologic or allergic disease were allergic rhinitis(17.7$\%$), urticaria, paranasal sinusitis and T.B.(3.1$\%$). 5. The most common past history with otolaryngologic or allergic disease were paranasal sinusitis(14.6$\%$), atopic dermatitis and asthma(8.3$\%$). It was 31.3$\%$ they had a family history and 44.8$\%$, past history. 6. The most common complication was paranasal sinusitis(15.6$\%$). In decreasing order the others were otitis media with effusion(9.4$\%$), GERD and headache(6.3$\%$), asthma, bronchitis, nasal bleeding and allergic dermatitis(5.2$\%$). 7. Classification through Byeonjeung : ⅰ) 39 cases(34.9$\%$) were classified as showing Deficiency syndrome. The insuffficiency of Qi was 17.7$\%$, deficiency of Kidney-Yang, 12.5$\%$ and Lung-Cold, 10.4$\%$. ⅱ) 57 cases(59.4$\%$) were classified as showing Excess syndrome. The Fever of YangMing-meridian was 35.4$\%$, Lung-Fever, 24.0$\%$. 8. The efficacy of treatments showed: an improvement in 22cases(22.9$\%$); an improvement partly in 24 cases(25.0$\%$); no real improvement or changes in 16 cases(16.7$\%$); and couldn't check the results 18cases(18.6$\%$). Conclusion: We suggest that this study could be utilized as a standard of clinical Oriental Medical treatment when we treat hypersensitive rhinitis including allergic rhinitis.
