1. The etiological causes of Pain in Shoulder and Arm based on literatures of Oriental medicine are attack of wind-heat on the lung, wind cold, damp-heat struggle between the vital energy and pathogenic factor and six pathogenic factors And all these causes are the conception of blockage syndrome, $Q_1$ and blood stagnating in meridian system. 2. Symptoms of Pain in Shoulder and Arm based on literatures of Oriental medicine are shoulder pain, restriction of activity and radiating pain. 3. The treatments of Pain in Shoulder and Arm based on literatures of Oriental medicine are mainly composed of both medical therapy for $B_1$ syndrome due to pathogenic wind, deficiency of both $Q_1$ and blood, consumption of the liver and the spleen, and also acupuncture and moxibustion treatment by selection of acupoint. And those treatments are for treating etiology. And also there are treatments using the meridian system and Twelve Muscle Region and Ashihyeol for the purpose of treating the symptoms. 4. Acupoints such as Gyun-u, Gyun-jung, Goi-ji, Ju-ryo and Bi-no are most used in treating shoulder and arm pain based on based on literatures of Oriental medicine.

The gamma-radiation sensitivity of three kinds of pathogenic bacteria to fish was investigated. $D_{10}$ values (irradiation dose required to inactivate 90% of the population) of Edwardsiella tarda, Vibrio anguillarum and Streptococcus faecalis were 0.08, 0.10 and 0.44 kGy, respectively. The inactivation factors were 4.50 - 24.30 and 6.75 - 36.45 at radiation doses of 2 and 3 kGy. Raw moist pellets were inoculated with Edwardsiella tarda, Vibrio anguillarum or Streptococcus faecalis. Inoculated feed samples were packaged in air and irradiated at 5 kGy. This dose was effective in controlling the inoculated and general bacteria in fish feed. We consider gamma-radiation to be an effective method to sterilize pathogenic bacteria in fish feed.

The results of studies on the synthesis of B group vitamins by plant pathogenic bacteria indicate that most bacteria utilize thiamine, nicotinic acid, biotin and P-Aminobenzoic acid as growth factors. Riboflavin (vitamin $B_2$) was produced by most bacterial genera including the Corynebacteria but with the exception of C. rathay and C.fasciant. The results suggest that the ability to produce riboflavin is not a generic characteristic of Corynebacterium, and that the accuracy of the ultra-violet light method (one of the diagnostic tests for potato bacterial ring rot disease caused by Corynebacterium sepedonicum) must he reconsidered.

The gu-chang is oriental medical disease name. This study has been carried out to investigate pathogenic factor, pathogenesis, treatment method and medicine of the gu chang by referring to literatures. The results were obtained as follows; 1. Pathogenic factors are pungent taste, stir frying, rich and fatty diet, alchol, disorder of emotion, exogenous pathogen, excessive fatigue and indulgence in sexual activities. 2. Pathogenesis of the gu chang is that the fire heat go up to the mouse. 3. The symptoms are divided into two syndrome. one is sthenia syndrome(實證) - red color and swelling, unendurable pain, strong pulse(脈實), the other is asthenia syndrome(虛症) - pink color, a slight pain, relapse, loose stool, feeble pulse(脈虛). 4. The treatment method is divided into two parts. one is a sthenic syndrome (實證) - clearing strong heat (淸實熱), the other is a asthenic syndrome(虛症) - nourishing yin(滋陰) and clearing deficient heat (淸虛熱), reinforcing the spleen and strengthening middle - JIAO(健脾 補中). 5. The prescription were liang ge san(凉膈散), Ij jhong tang(理中湯) ,xie xim tang(瀉心湯), bu ja li jhong tang, (附子理中湯),liuwei wan(六味元), ba wei wan(八味元), zhuye shigao tang(竹葉石膏湯), si wu tang(四物湯), bu zhong yi gi tang(補中益氣湯) etc.

In order to investigate the meanings and bases of transforming theories of diseases(病傳論), several relevant theories were collected from medical books since . The outside-to-inside changing process(pyoree jeon) was the fundamental pattern in febrile diseases regardless of slang han and wen bing after Han dynasty. But in case of numb disease the three exogenous pathogenic factors of wind, cold and dampness got into each viscera through five tissues like skin, vessesl, flesh, tendons, bones respectively. It was called corresponding changing process(sanghap jeon) here. The pathogenic changing process(byungsa jeon) had complicated details to explain pathologic processes, but could give useful informations on evaluating relative strength of pathogens and tendency ahead. The changing process of diseases of internal injuries were explained in case of emotional distress which is outbroken abruptly didn't follow regular order of viscera-emotion relations. So it was named random changing process(bulcha jeon) after 's usage. And marasmus and asthenic disease followed top-to-down or down-to-top changing process(sangha jeon) based on . There are many types of changing process of diseases between viscera and viscera or viscera and bowels like generation changing process, restriction changing process, changing process between couple, changing process of mutual transmission based on attributions of each element by the theory of 5 phases(五行論). And changing process to a neighbor doesn't have any special relations within two organs but has anatomical contiguity and physiological continuity between them. The transforming theories of diseases bring forth useful understanding on comings and goings of pathogenic factors and tendency and prognosis of disease, so they are needed to be taught in the course of pathology class.

In this review, we will explore the intricate roles of cytokines and vascular endothelial growth factors in autoimmune diseases (ADs), with a particular focus on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and multiple sclerosis (MS). AD is characterized by self-destructive immune responses due to auto-reactive T lymphocytes and Abs. Among various types of ADs, RA and MS possess inflammation as a central role but in different sites of the patients. Other common aspects among these two ADs are their chronicity and relapsing-remitting symptoms requiring continuous management. First factor inducing these ADs are cytokines, such as IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-17, which play significant roles in the pathogenesis by contributing to inflammation, immune cell activation, and tissue damage. Secondly, vascular endothelial growth factors, including VEGF and angiopoietins, are crucial in promoting angiogenesis and inflammation in these two ADs. Finally, placental growth factor (PlGF), an emerging factor with bi-directional roles in angiogenesis and T cell differentiation, as we introduce as an "angio-lymphokine" is another key factor in ADs. Thus, while angiogenesis recruits more inflammatory cells into the peripheral sites, cytokines secreted by effector cells play critical roles in the pathogenesis of ADs. Various therapeutic interventions targeting these soluble molecules have shown promise in managing autoimmune pathogenic conditions. However, delicate interplay between cytokines, angiogenic factors, and PlGF has more to be studied when considering their complementary role in actual pathogenic conditions. Understanding the complex interactions among these factors provides valuable insights for the development of innovative therapies for RA and MS, offering hope for improved patient outcomes.

Somatic cell counts (SCCs) of goat milk can vary widely depending on the counting methods used and non-pathogenic factors; the goat milk industry can be threatened by establishment of a legal standard based on the findings in cow milk. In Korea, SCCs have been excluded from the items that are analyzed under the "Livestock Products Processing and Composition Standards" in accordance with a recent NVRQS Notice amendment. From April to October, SCCs of 150 goat milk samples from 2 farms were analyzed using a Somascope calibrated with standard goat milk samples. Average SCCs of the samples was 598,000/mL, and significant differences were not found between farms and between breeds. SCCs increased from 3 to 8 months after delivery.
