Objectives : As depression falls into the category of Wuljeung, Gamiguibi-Tang(Jiaweiguipitang) is the standard prescription to cure Wuljeung. This study develops a questionnaire for building the guidelines to administer Gamiguibi-Tang to depression and evaluates reliability and validity of questionnaire. Methods : With extracting the text related to depression and Gamiguibi-Tang through total 9 Korean medicine books and consulting the experts, the study selected 80 items and converted them into a questionnaire. It surveyed the neuropsychiatry professors and the medical specialists three times by Delphi method, and lastly selected 21 final items of a questionnaire. On the basis of the questionnaire, it collected total 216 samples and tested their reliability and validity. Results : 21 items all didn't reduce total Cronbach alpha coefficient and satisfied test-retest reliability. As a result of factor analysis, totally 5 factors were extracted such as mental state, sleep, accompaniment, fatigue and weakness. Finally, in comparing a depression group with a normal control group, two groups all showed meaningful difference in each 21 items' point, the sum of factor 1 to 5 items' points, and the sum of 21 items' points.

Hiccups are defined as abrupt involuntary contractions of diaphragm and intercostal muscles with sudden closure of the glottis. Hiccups are one of the common transient symptoms but when hiccups last more than 48 hours, or have no response to treatment, they are defined as intractable hiccups. Intractable hiccups can induce multiple problems such as weight loss, dehydration and sleep disturbance. We report a 76-year-old male patient who suffered from intractable hiccups for 6 days after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Hiccupping was so severe as to continue all day long and limit sleeping and eating. We succeeded in cure intractable hiccups with acupuncture and herbal formula; Gyulyeohwadam-tang.

This clinical study describes the effect of Korean medicine as a treatment for early dumping syndrome. The patient was treated with herbal medicine (Sogeonjung-tang and Jeongjeon-gami-ijin-tang), acupuncture, and moxibustion for 34 days. The degree of treatment was measured by the amount of oral intake and the number of vomiting incidents. During the treatment, the patient's symptoms were relieved and the amount of oral intake increased. At first, the patient vomited once or twice per day, and the amount of oral intake was about 600-700 cc. After the treatment, the patient did not vomit and oral intake increased about two fold. This clinical case study shows the positive effect of herbal medicine, acupuncture, and moxibustion on relief of symptoms of early dumping syndrome.

Myocardial bridging, a congenital coronary anomaly, is present when a segment of a major epicardial coronary artery, runs intramurally through the myocardium. So with each systole, the coronary artery is compressed. It has been associated with angina, arrhythmia, myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death. This is a case of a 39-year-old woman who was diagnosed myocardial bridge. She complained of recurrent chest pain, palpitation. We diagnosed her as Gyesimtong(JiXiTong, 悸心痛), and prescribed Jeongkicheonhyang-tang(正氣天香湯). After treatment, all of the symptoms had improved and have not recurred for 18 months. This case suggests that oriental medicine therapy can be applicable to improve in symptoms of myocardial bridge.

Alzheimer's disease(AD) is a geriatric dementia that is widespread in old ages. In the future AD will be the largest problem in public health service. From old times, much medicines have been used for treatment of dementia, but there is no medicine having obvious effects. AD is one of brain retrogression disease. So we studied on herbal medicine that have a relation for brain retrogression. From old times, in oriental medicine, senile disease such as dementia and AD is treated by exclusion of Tan(痰). But Vascular Dementia(VsD) is due to YuXue(瘀血). So in recent studies, Hua Xue Hua Yu(活血化瘀) medicine is used for precautionary and medical treatment. We studied on the effects for anti-Alzheimer in pCT105-induced neuroblastoma cell lines by Hyeolbuchukeo-tang(HCT). As the results of this study, in HCT group, the apoptosis in the nervous system is inhibited, the repair against the degeneration of Neuroblastoma cells by CT105 expression is promoted. These results indicate that HCT possess strong inhibitory effect of apoptosis in the nervous system and repair effect against the degeneration of neuroblastoma cells by CT105 expression.

A patients with quadriplegia and a history of pancreatectomy was administered Socheongryong-tang to reduce sputum. The patient's sputum decreased, but a sudden increase in blood sugar was observed. Ephedra is known to stimulate the sympathetic nerves to increase the blood pressure and blood sugar, but in healthy people, changes in blood sugar are not significant due to corrections by hormone regulation. However, this case suggests that ephedra can cause significant blood sugar increases in patients who undergo pancreatectomy or who have diabetes mellitus. Even though ephedra is highlighted for its usefulness in sputum reduction and in weight control, it should be carefully prescribed to patients with diabetes.

This study was carried out to investigate the protective effects of GaMiHyangSaYukGunJaTang on gastric mucosal lesions caused by indomethacin in rats.The test group was injected with indomethacin after the oral administration of GaMiHyangSaYukGunJaTang, while the control group was injected only with indomethacin. The lipid peroxidation level increased considerably in the control group, but superoxide disnurtase(SOD), catalase and glutathione(GSH) levels remarkably decreased. The following effects induced by indomethacin were observed in the stomach of the control group; mucosa hemoIThagic infarct, mucosa cell necrosis, leukocyte appearance, mucosa hemorrhagic erosion and gastric pit disawearance. In the test group, lipid peroxides level was significantly reduced compared with the control group While SOD, catalase and GSH levels considerably increased. The following effects were also observed in the stomach of the test group; mucosa hemorrhagic infarct, mucosa cell necrosis, leukocyte appearance and mucosa hemorrhagic erosion occured far less and gastric pit disappearance was not observed at all. This results suggest that GaMiHyangSaYukGunJaTang is effective in the remedy of gastric mucosal lesions as GaMiHyangSaYukGunJaTang suppresses the production of the lipid peroxides and free radicals induced by indomethacin and activates SOD, catalase and GSH.
