Active movement is able to actively contract his muscles and move a segment either with or without assistance. This movement maintain physiologic elasticity and contractility of the participating muscles, provide sensory feedback from the contracting muscles and stimulus for bone integrity as well as increase circulation and prevent thrombus formation, in addition to develop coordination and moor skills for functional activities. Passive movement is the motion to the external force; gravity, machine, another individuals. Active movement is more activated rather than passived on the central nervous system. Therefore, we think that active movement is more effected facilitating through specific inhibitory mobilization of muscle.

Flow in the blood sac of the Korean artificial heart is numerically simulated by finite element method. Fluid-structure interaction algorithm is employed to compute the 3D blood flow interacting with the sac material. The motion of the actuator is simplified by a time-varying pressure boundary condition imposed on the outer surface of the sac. Numerical solutions show that there are a strong flow into the outlet and a stagnation flow near the inlet during systole. Shear stress distribution is also delineated to assess the possibility of thrombus formation.

Intramuscular hemangioma is a rare type of hemangiomas and sometimes overlooked by orofacial pain specialist who encountered various types of masticatory muscle problems. A 42-year-old male, presented with feeling of unilateral hypertrophy on left mandibular area, is finally diagnosed as hemangioma with thrombus by excisional biopsy. However, he was initially treated by injection of botulinum toxin A due to misdiagnosis as unilateral masseter hypertrophy. In the present report, we remind the importance of careful examination and diagnostic images to orofacial pain clinicians in early detection of intramuscular hemangioma of masticatory muscles.

The acetone precipitates of the hot water extract of Torilis ftuctus showed strong hemostatic activity which was not inhibited by aspirin. This activity was not through platelet activation but possibly through activating some coagulation factors in plasma. The hemostatic action of the precipitates was not active by oral adminitration and no behavioral toxicity was appeared in treated mice. However, mice treated with the acetone precipitates through tail vein showed serious tremor and then were killed probably by the thrombus produced in the body. The hemostatic activity was still remained after treatment with $\beta$-glucosidase, $\beta$-alactosidase, $\alpha$-amylase, subtilisin BPN', or trypsin but completely lost by acid hydrolysis. The active components seemed to be a complex of unidentified macromolecules to which some phenolic compounds were strongly bound.

The Budd-Chiari syndrome is a rare type of portal hypertension caused by complete or incomplete obstruction of the hepatic vein or the corresponding portion of the inferior vena cava or both. In this case, the obstruction was located just beneath the diaphragm, above the right hepatic vein opening, which was confirmed by vena cavography preoperatively. Budd-Chiari syndrome with stenosis or thrombosis of the inferior vena cava may be cured by prosthetic bypass to the right atrium. This case is caused by thrombus of unknowed primary origin. Combined mesoatrial and cavoatrial shunt should be encouraged in this specific situation. Postoperatively, there were marked fall of venous pressure and symptoms and signs improved remarkably.

Endomyocardial fibrosis(EMF) is an unusual type of cardiomyopathy characterized by a restriction to the ventricular filling and an obliteration of the inflow portion in the ventricular cavity by a fibrosis and often by a thrombus formation. The atrioventricular valve may be involved, resulting in an atrioventricular valvular regurgitation. The only known effective treatments are endomyocardiectomy and replacement of regurgitant AV valves. We report the experience of a case of EMF which required surgical management.

Essential thrombocytosis (ET) is a myeloproliferative disorder characterized by an anomalous increase in platelet production. Many patients with ET are asymptomatic. Few studies have reported ET-associated thromboembolism in large vessels such as the aorta. We report a patient with ET who presented with peripheral embolism from an abdominal aortic thrombus and developed acute limb ischemia. The patient underwent aortic replacement successfully. The patient's platelet count was controlled with hydroxyurea, and no recurrence was noted over 2 years of follow-up.

A 5-year-old boy was admitted to the hospital with a high fever and abnormal gait. Magnetic resonance imaging showed extensive swelling of the quadriceps and adductor muscles around the right hip and anterior thigh. A duplex scan demonstrated a thrombus from the external iliac vein to below the popliteal vein. The blood culture revealed Streptococcus pyogenes. The patient was immediately treated with antibiotics and anticoagulants. Follow-up sonography demonstrated complete disappearance of the venous thrombosis. We report a case of streptococcal myositis complicated by deep vein thrombosis.

A thrombus is a mass formed from the constituents of the blood within the vessels or the heart during life. The process of formation is known as thrombosis. A vegetable warms producing fibrinolytic enzyme was isolated from chines traditional medicinal mushrooms. Cordyceps militairs and Paecilomyces tenuipes. The fibrinolytic enzyme of Cordyceps militaris and Paecilomyces tenuipes was purified from fruiting body by -70 prechilled ethanol precipitation. ion-exchange chromatography. gel filtration.

Kawasaki disease is an acute systemic vasculitis of unknown origin. Giant coronary aneurysm is one of the most serious complications, although peripheral artery vasculitis can produce life-threatening events. Myocardial ischemia and infarction can be caused by coronary artery stenosis, aneurysm, and stagnation of blood flow in coronary arteries which triggers thromboembolism. Atypical presentation in young infants often interferes with prompt diagnosis and timely treatment, resulting in poor outcomes. We describe a 3-month-old infant with multiple giant coronary aneurysms with flow stagnation, stenosis and large mural thrombus due to Kawasaki disease. He presented with a prolonged course of severe coronary involvement in spite of all measures to reduce coronary complications. Finally, surgical intervention was tried because of the worsening coronary artery abnormalities. The patient died of acute cardiorespiratory failure shortly after weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass.
