미세혈관 수술의 발달로 수지동맥의 재접합술이 성행함에 따라 혈관벽의 구조에 관한 연구들이 활발하지만 수지의 미세동맥과 모세혈관에 관한 연구는 드물다. 이에 저자는 흰쥐 수지의 충양근 안에 있는 미세동맥과 모세혈관의 구조를 전자현미경으로 관찰하여 보고하고자 한다. 1. 흰쥐 충양근 내의 미세동맥 (small arterioles)은 그 직경이 $12\sim20{\mu}m$로 중막이 한 층의 평활근세포로 구성된 종말소동맥 (terminal arteriole) 형태였는데 인체의 종말소동맥$(30\sim35{\mu}m)$에 비해 직경이 작았으며, 모세혈관은 직경이 $5\sim8{\mu}m$로 비슷하였다. 2. 모든 미세동맥 및 모세혈관의 내막을 구성하는 내피세포는 연속형 (continuous type)이었고, 따라서 전체 세포질내에 포음소포(pinocytic vesicles)가 많이 관찰되었다. 3. 모세혈관 주위에서 자주 혈관주위세포(pericytes)가 관찰되었는데 철관주위세포의 긴 들기가 내피세포의 일부를 싸는 경우도 많았으며 이들은 기저판에 의해 둘러싸여 있었다. 4. 내피세포들 사이에는 여러 가지 형태의 접촉이 있었으나 특히 폐쇄띠 (tight junction)를 가장 많이 관찰할 수 있었다. 미세동맥의 내피하층은 기저판 아래에서 매우 불규칙한 양상으로 나타났는데 곳곳에 내피세포와 중막을 구성하는 평활근세포의 막이 꽉 붙어 관찰되었다. 5. 미세동맥의 중막을 구성하는 한 층의 평활근세포의 세포질은 많은 filaments가 있어 균질성으로 보이는 균질성 영역 (homogeneous area)과 mitochondria, 조면내형질망, 골지복합체, polyribosome 등이 관찰되는 핵 주위의 비균질성 영역 (non-homogeneous area)으로 구분되었다. 6. 미세동맥의 외막은 섬유모세포의 아주 가느다란 돌기들로 형성되어 있었으며 군데군데 교원섬유들이 관찰되었다.

본 논문은 인체 수관절 운동과 표면 근전도의 상관관계를 실험적으로 다룬다. 수관절의 해부학적 구조를 분석하여, 수관절 운동 형상을 파악하고 운동을 발생시키는 주요 근육을 선정하였다. 수관절 재활 훈련 장치를 이용하여 수관절 운동에 저항하는 토크를 가하고, 이 때 주요 근육에서 토크에 따른 표면 근전도 신호를 측정하였다. 측정된 표면 근전도 신호의 크기를 계산하여 수관절 운동과의 연관성 분석에 사용하였다. 실험 결과로부터 수관절 토크와 표면 근전도 신호의 크기가 토크 $0.1\;N{\cdot}m$ 이하의 수관절 운동에서는 선형적으로 비례함을 밝혔고, 수관절 근육의 단면적에 따라 표면 근전도 신호의 크기도 선형적으로 비례함을 확인하였다. 또한 수관절 운동에 관여하는 각 근육의 기여도를 분석한 결과, 각 운동을 발생시키는 가장 주도적인 2개의 근육 중에서 한 근육의 기여도가 약 60 %로서 일관성 있게 나타났다. 이러한 세 가지 실험 결과로 좀 더 정교한 수관절 재활 훈련 장치나 로봇 등을 제작하는데 응용할 수 있다.

Objectives : Oriental Medicine Music Therapy is a new way of treating and preventing various diseases and promoting health by means of music specially picked and designed to produce Qi(氣) fitting to an individual person in the areas of the structure of human body, physiological function, pathological change, diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, it can facilitate the efficiency of the treatment much better and faster than only with herb or acupuncture. Equilibrium between body and mind is its originality. Methods : A 38-year old man came to hospital suffering from left side weakness, dysarthria because of cerebral infarction. After one week's medication in the part of neurology, he was sent to the oriental medicine music therapy center, and he took ten times' medical treatments once a day. Before and after the treatments, implementing 'Ink foot print analysis', as for the movement capacity and walking of left side weakness, these results are acquired. Results and Conclusions : 1. Before the oriental medicine music therapy, except the acceleration and deceleration section, within three meters, a right foot's step was measured 30.55 cm and a left foot was measured 15.2 cm, and the step distance was 15.2 cm. After the 10 times treatments, the right foot's step was 112.6 cm, the left foot's step was 113 cm, and the step distance improved to 51.8 cm. 2. The normal person's average step is about 38 cm, and it could be decreased owing to a decreptitude, pain, fatigue, and the weakness of the legs. In spite of all, from the increased 50 cm step measurement with the patient's body condition, it means that his movement capacity is recovered. 3. In the measurement of walking time, before 10 times treatments, it took 46.35 seconds within 6M, but after the treatments, it increased to 7.47 seconds as same as a normal person's walking speed. 4. In insomnia, and the abnormality of a facial muscle, it shows lots of improvement, and even the accuracy of a pronunciation, but despite of the 10 times treatments, the 'ㄹ(r)' sound placed under a vowel is unclear. 5. Before the 10 times' treatments, he can move the left side shoulder with pain and cannot move below the left elbow. After the treatments, the pain was disappeared, and he was able to move over 60 cm without pain. And improving of the movement of fingers, he can beat over 8 times with a drumstick.

The meridian system is the most essential and basic connecting structure that maintains the vital activities of viscera and bowels by connecting them with each part of body's surface. Doctors can understand the healthy condition, and the region and deficiency-excessiveness of disease by observing the condition of Qi flowing. Deficiency and excessiveness could be differentiated by various symptoms expressed in meridian system. Especially there could be several clues like pain, heat-cold, protuberance-depression, change of color and shine in the line of channel leads to the judgment of deficiency-excessiveness The diagnosis of deficiency and excessiveness can be generalized by quantification of elastic status in skin surface along the meridian system. By comparing data from measurement of elastic condition with those from traditional deficiency and excessiveness, it could be utilized for the development of oriental medicine. All biological activities in the human body are based on meridian system according to the oriental medicine. Also the meridian system is viewed as basic and essential structure connecting internal viscera and each part of body. The areas of expressed channel phenomena are muscle to bone, muscle to muscle and bone to bone. These areas are called depression where meridian system is present and any changing state on those points can be measured. It could be difficult in diagnosing the reaction of meridian system because doctor can depend on his own judgment. Therefore, it is necessary to quantify and indexate channel reactions. To quantify the channel reactions, specially manufactured instrument was used to quantify the protuberance and depression to differentiate the deficiency and excessiveness. The results follow as below; 1. The elastic index measurement by the equipment proved a pattern of agreement showing the values that ranged within standard deviation 0.05kgf/cm throughout the experiment except few cases' measurement in CV-17. 2. To evaluate the state of deficiency & excessiveness of elastic index measurements in frontal point, elastic index measurements in the front paint were compared to the elastic index measured surrounding the point within 2.5 cm. Such result of indexing procedure was closely matched to the concept of palpitation. 3. If the elastic index values in the surrounding front point closely located to the elastic index values in the front point, the judgement on the state of deficiency and excessiveness was delayed. Otherwise, it was judged as deficiency or excessiveness. 4. Out of total 12 cases of comparing the elastic index values to the elastic index values in the surrounding front point, Three to nine front points were judged as either in the state of deficiency or excessiveness. 5. Among the nine front points judged as either in the state of deficiency or excessiveness, Four cases were matched to the electric index measured by EAV that evaluating the internal organs by five different phases. If more clinical cases are accumulated, it is expected to systematically theorize and improve the concept of deficiency and excessiveness in the internal organs using the front point.
