We researched two patients with ear fullness after traffic accident. We diagnosed the patients' symptom as referred pain caused by clavicle branch of sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscle. So, acupunture therapy and SCENAR therapy were used to treat the patients. We measured their discomfort by visual anlog scale (VAS) before and after treatment. As a result, the patients improved remarkably and VAS score was declined sharply when we applied acupuncture therapy and SCENAR therapy on clavicle branch of SCM. Therefore, we are certain that ear fullness can be caused by clavicle branch of SCM after traffic accident. It shows dramatical and satisfactory progress by acupuncture therapy and SCENAR therapy to relax shortening of clavicle branch of SCM.

We examined the effects of 5 g red pepper powder in soup preload given at breakfast on food intake, blood pressure, body core temperature, hunger, fullness and thirst scores in 29 female collage students. All subjects received two kind of soup preloads in random order. After ingesting a soup, subjects ate other food items as a breakfast ad libitum. Two soups were of the same composition and volume but differed only in 5 g red pepper. So one soup designated as "beef-vegetable" and the other soup designated as "red pepper". Red pepper soup consumption significantly enhanced energy and macronutrient intake by 17%. The hunger scores after test meals were inversely correlated with energy and nutrient intake in beef-vegetable meal. However, the postprandial hunger scores were not correlated with energy and nutrient intakes in red pepper meal. The fullness scores at 90 min after the red pepper meal were inversely correlated with energy and nutrient intake whereas the fullness scores after beef-vegetable meal were not correlated with energy and nutrient intake. These results suggest that hot red pepper ingestion may desensitize some gastrointestinal vagal afferents and disturb feeling of hunger and fullness. The postprandial changes of body temperatures in red pepper meal were higher for a longer time in comparison with those in beef-vegetable meal. For the red pepper meal there frequently were higher correlations between blood pressures and anthropometric measurements, compared to those in beef-vegetable meal. These results might be explained partly by the enhancing effects of capsaicin on thermogenesis and sympathetic nervous system activity. It is concluded that the ingestion of spicy soup with red pepper can increase appetite, energy and nutrient intakes in Korean females, and this effect might be related to disturbed feeling of hunger and fullness.hunger and fullness.

본 조사는 노래미(Agrammus agrmmus)의 위만복도의 일주변화에 관한 수리적 접근을 시도한 것이다. 표본은 삼천포 신수도 연안에서 1984년 9월부터 1985년 8월사이에 낚시와 삼중자강으로 채집된 것이다. 하루 중 위만복도는 이른 아침과 늦은 오후에 각각 한차례씩 증가하였고, 늦은 오전과 정오무렵 및 야간에는 감소하였다. 즉, 노래미의 섭식활동은 해뜰무렵과 해질무렵에 강하였다. 본 종의 하루 중 일주섭식활동은 위배출만 일어나는 시간대와 섭식과 위배출이 동시에 일어나는 시간대로 구분할 수 있었다. 위배출 시간대에서 시간의 경과에 따른 위만복도는 지수 함수적으로 감소하였고, 섭식과 위배출이 동시에 일어나는 시간대에서 시간의 경과에 따른 위만복도는 단위시간당 위배출률과 섭식률, 위의 최대만복도 등에 영향을 받았다. 위배출률은 위배출 시간대에서 시간 t와 t시점에서의 위만복도 $F_t$, 간, 또는 $F_t$와 $t+\Delta t$시점에서의 위만복도 $F+_{\Delta t}$, 간의 회귀관계식으로분터 회귀계수를 추정하는 방법으로써 구할 수 있었다. 섭식률과 위의 최대만복도는 섭식과 위배출이 동시에 일어나는 시간대에서 $F_t$와 $t+\Delta t$간의 회귀관계식으로부터 추정할 수 있었다. 섭식률과 위배출률은 봄에 높았고 겨울에 낮았다. 본 종의 일주섭식활동에 관한 가설들로부터 추논된 위배출 시간대와 섭식과 위배출이 동시에 일어나는 시간대에서 시간 t와 t시점에서의 위만복도 $F_t$, 간의 관계식은 각각 아래와 같다. $$F_t=F_{to}e^{-r(t-to)}$$, $$F_t=F\infty-(F\infty-F_{to})e^{-(p+r)(t-{to})}$$

'On the Morbid Pulse of Abdominal Fullness, Cold Mounting, and Abiding Food' in the Chapter 10 of Synopsis of Golden Chamber that enunciates Abdominal Fullness, Cold Mounting, and Abiding Food is related to the stomach and intestines respectively, and is similar to the region and symptom of disease in the light of both abdominal fullness and symptoms of pain. This chapter was united into one because the formula mentioned in this chapter can be applied to three disease patterns. Abdominal fullness shows the symptoms of distention and unease, but judging from the text as well as a specific formula and symptoms, it follows pain. Accordingly Abdominal fullness dealt with in this chapter is the first consideration and it is a kind of a disease pattern attendant on abdominal pain. Cold Mounting does not mean mounting gi disease but means the abdominal pain. The cause of cold mounting is mainly due to insufficiency of yang gi and oversufficiency of cold evil. And the main symptoms of cold mounting follow the severe pain around the naval and sweating, cold of the extremities, pulse deep and tight. Abiding food is of the same meaning such as damage of food today. Abiding food is now referred to as damage of food. Principles which have set forth in this chapter are put to use of the method of ejection in case that abiding food places in the upper part, precipitation in the lower part. The symptoms of abiding food show that the pulse is slight and slippery and the wrist pulse is both superficial and large and rough in applying the pressure, and the cubit pulse is also slight and superficial as well, and that have diarrhea and have little appetite.

Background & Object : Postprandial epigastric fullness is one of common symptoms in functional dyspepsia, but its pathophysiological mechanism has still been unknown. In this study, its association between postprandial epigastric fullness and pyloric valve disturbance was studied through analysis of bowel sounds and electrogastrography. Methods : Bowel sounds and electrogastrography were recorded together for fasting 15 min and postprandial 40 min. Parameters of bowel soundincluding motility index, sound to sound interval, standard deviation of sound to sound interval, sounds per minute, % of bowel sound, sound length, intensity, dominant frequency of sounds, and postprandial / fasting ratio of dominant frequency of sounds were analyzed with a specialized program. By electrogastrography, regularity of slow waves and power ratio were obtained. Results : Significances of bowel sounds appeared in motility index (p=0.046), dominant frequency of fasting (p=0.048), postprandial (p=0.003), and the ratio of postprandial/fasting (p=0.000); those of EGG parameters were shown in postprandial regularity of slow waves (p=0.006) and power ratio (p=0.011). Conclusion : Pyloric valve disturbance was a cause of postprandial epigastric fullness in patients with functional dyspepsia. Analysis of bowel sound might be useful in diagnosing its existence.
