Background: Although sunscreen is used as a primary strategy to prevent sunburn, photoaging and skin cancer, only a few people regularly use sunscreen. Objectives: To investigate the awareness of effects of sunlight, the extent of sun exposure, and the behaviors about sunscreen uses in Korean. Methods: A questionnaire was administered 255 adult patients visited Dermatology Department at Seoul National University Boramae Hospital. It included questions about the awareness of benefit or harm of sunlight, perceived and actual extent of sun exposure, the use of sun-protective methods including sunscreen. Results: Sun exposure was chosen as the major cause of dyschromia (61.2%), skin cancer (62.8%) and wrinkle (28.6%). Respondents were likely to underestimate the extent of sun exposure. On average, quite a few respondents stated that they were exposed to sunlight more than one hour per day (23.1% on weekdays, 53.4% on weekends). But, only 8.7% thought that their sun exposures were problematic and 62.2% of respondents considered moderate sunlight exposure good for health. People`s sun protective behaviors were inadequate: only 30.8% used sunscreen regularly; 18.4% have never used sunscreen. SPF was the most important factor choosing sunscreen and 86.0% used sunscreen labeled SPF over 30. In contrast, only 40.3% used PA+++ sunscreen. Conclusion: Despite a fairly good knowledge about harmful effects of sunlight, people underestimated the risks of their sun exposure and behaviors were suboptimal.

Background: Genetic alterations have been identified in melanomas according to different levels of sun exposure. Whereas the conventional morphology-based classification provides a clue for tumor growth and prognosis, the new classification by genetic alterations offers a basis for targeted therapy. Objective: The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the biological behavior of melanoma subtypes and compare the two classifications in the Korean population. Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed on patients found to have malignant melanoma in Severance Hospital from 2005 to 2012. Age, sex, location of the tumor, histologic subtype, tumor depth, ulceration, lymph node invasion, visceral organ metastasis, and overall survival were evaluated. Results: Of the 206 cases, the most common type was acral melanoma (n=94, 45.6%), followed by nonchronic sun damage-induced melanoma (n=43, 20.9%), and mucosal melanoma (n=40, 19.4%). Twenty-one patients (10.2%) had the chronic sun-damaged type, whereas eight patients (3.9%) had tumors of unknown primary origin. Lentigo maligna melanoma was newly classified as the chronic sun-damaged type, and acral lentiginous melanoma as the acral type. More than half of the superficial spreading melanomas were newly grouped as nonchronic sun-damaged melanomas, whereas nodular melanoma was rather evenly distributed. Conclusion: The distribution of melanomas was largely similar in both the morphology-based and sun exposure-based classifications, and in both classifications, mucosal melanoma had the worst 5-year survival owing to its tumor thickness and advanced stage at the time of diagnosis.

분석심리학적 관점에서 본 동의보감의 정신치료

박선영 ( Park Sun Young ),정인모 ( Jung In Mo ),여한구 ( Yeo Han Koo ) 한국정신분석심리상담학회 2022 정신분석심리상담(구 정신역동치료) Vol.8 No.-

본 연구는 Jung의 분석심리학적 관점에서 동의보감의 병리와 치료원리를 탐구한 연구이다. 연구 결과, 분석심리학의 핵심 개념인 대극의 원리가 동의보감을 관통하는 기본적인 철학임을 알 수 있고, 동의보감에 나타난 정신치료 원리는 3가지로 구분할 수 있다. 첫째, 정신의 작용은 에너지 균형과 순환을 나타내는 소장평형(消長平衡)의 원리로 모든 우주 만물이 형태나 성격이 바뀔 뿐 에너지는 사라지지 않고 균형을 이루는, 대극의 초월과 합일을 통해 계속 순환하는 만물의 생성과 소멸의 원리이다. 둘째, 정신병리는 대극의 불균형을 극복하려는 물극필반(物極必反)의 원리로 에너지가 한쪽으로 치우쳐 불균형이 심화되면 다시 반대쪽으로 에너지가 기울게 된다는 상호작용의 원리이다. 정신병리는 불균형을 만드는 에너지의 일방성과 에너지의 상호작용의 부재 및 부조화, 들고나는 에너지의 속도 차이에 의해 초래된다. 셋째, 정신치료는 불균형에서 조화와 균형을 회복하는 것이며 치우침 없이 균형을 유지하는 중화(中和)의 원리로 설명한다. 중화는 신체뿐만 아니라 정신의 에너지 불균형을 다루는 정신치료 원리이며, 이는 마음을 다스려 양생(養生)을 돕는 음평양비(陰平陽秘)와 대극의 균형과 합일을 통해 치료적 작용을 돕는 치이권형(治以權衡)으로 구분할 수 있다. 요컨대 동의보감은 정기신(精氣神) 대극(對極)의 상호관계 속에서 신체와 정신이 조화와 균형을 이루고 생리와 병리 및 치료의 원리를 다루고 있으며, 그 치료원리는 분석심리학적 관점의 대극의 합일과 개성화 과정으로 이해할 수 있다. 이를 통해 한의학의 치료에서 분석심리학을 기초로 한 개입 가능성을 살펴볼 수 있었다. The present study reviews the pathology and treatment principles of Donguibogam from the perspective of Jung’s analysis psychology in order to explore psychotherapy principles inherent in Donguibogam. The results indicate that the principle of opposing poles, a core concept of analytical psychology, is in line with Donguibogam. More specifically, three principles of psychotherapy are derived from Donguibogam. First, Sojangpyeonghyeong, a concept of the balance and circulation of energy, describes psychological functioning. Sojangpyeonghyeong, in which all things in the universe change only in forms or characteristics whereas their energy does not disappear but maintains its balance, is a principle of generation and extinction of things that circulate consistently through the unity and transcendence of two opposing poles. Second, Mulgeukpilban, a concept of overcoming the imbalance of opposing poles, accounts for psychopathology. It is a principle of interactions that, if energy is skewed to one side and its imbalance intensifies, the energy is tilted back to the other side. Psychological disorders develop if unilateral tendencies of energy create imbalance and occur from the absence and incongruity of interactions due to the confinement of energy and speed discrepancy in the ebb and flow of energy. Third, psychotherapy restores harmony and balance from imbalance, and is explained through JoongHwa, a concept of maintaining balance without bias. JoongHwa is a principle dealing with psychological as well as physical imbalances. It is categorized into two parts. One is Yinpyeongyangbi that helps protection from psychological disfunction. The other is Chiygwonhyeong, which helps therapeutic action through balance and unity of opposing poles. In summary, Donguibogam deals with the principles of physiology, pathology and treatment where the body and mind are harmonized and balanced in the mutual relationship of the Jung (精), Qi (氣) and Shin (神) polarities. The treatment principle could be interpreted as the unity and individualization of opposing poles from the perspective of analytical psychology. The findings implicate the plausibility of the psychotherapeutic application based on analytical psychology to the interventions of Korean medicine.

Purpose: To compare the protective effects of saponin and non-saponin Sun-ginseng extract fractions in a selenite-induced rat cataract model. Methods: A total of 101 Sprague-Dawley rat pups were divided into four groups by treatment: Sun-ginseng, saponin fraction, non-saponin fraction, and control. For induction of cataracts, sodium selenite 15 nmol/g was injected subcutaneously in 13 day-old rat pups. Sun-ginseng extract 100 μg/g (Group I, Ginseng Science, Seoul, Korea), saponin fraction 100 μg/g (Group II), non-saponin fraction 100 μg/g (Group III), and phosphate buffered saline (Control group) were injected intraperitoneally every two days for a total of seven injections. The rats were sacrified and their lenses were dissected and photographed at day 7 and 14, and the cataracts were graded according to the ratio of the cataract area to the total lens area. The blind method was used for the evaluation of the cataract area. Results: At day 14, cataract formation rates (CFR) were 33.3% in group I, 76.4% in group II, 41.2% in group III, and 77.7% in the control group. The mean cataract area (MCA) was 13.4±20.8% in group I, 14.4±11.7% in group II, 5.7±7.7% in group III, and 15.8±12.1% in the control group. Group III showed statistically significant results compared with those of control group (CFR p=0.001, MCA p=0.001). We observed significantly lower incidence and smaller mean cataract area in Group I and Group III at day 7 compared with the control group (Group I, CFR p=0.018; Group III, CFR p=0.032, MCA p=0.005). Conclusions: The protective effects of Sun-ginseng extract are caused by the components in the non-saponin fraction, not by those in the saponin fraction, in a selenite-induced cataract rat model.

Objectives : Psychotic Symptom Rating Scale (PSYRATS) is an assessment tool to measure the seventy of different dimen-sions of auditory hallucinations and delusions. The reliability and validity of the Korean version of PSYRATS (K-PSYRATS)were examined in Korean patients with major psychosis. Methods : The inter-rater reliability of the K-PSYRATS was determined from the videotaped interviews of the five Schizoph-renic patients. To measure validity and internal consistency reliability, the 109 patients with auditory hallucinations or delusions were assessed using the K-PSYRATS, Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and Clinical Global Impression-Se-verity (CGI-S) scale. Results : K-PSYRATS was found to have excellent inter-rater reliability (intra-class correlation coefficient of auditory haliu-cination=0.81, P<.001, intm-class correlation coefficient ofde1usion=0.97, P<.001) and internal consistency reliability (Cron-bach's a of auditory hallucination =0.77, Cronbach's α of delusion =0.76). Significant correlation was found between K-PSY-RATS and positive syndrome subscale of PANSS and CGI. Conclusion : K-PSYRATS is a useful assessment instrument for psychotic symptoms in Korea.

The selective absorption ability of low density heavy metal(Pb(Ⅱ) ion or Cu(Ⅱ) ion) of eggshell(raw or boiled) is better than one of existing absorption materials in treatment ability and experimental condition. The elimination ability of chlorine of eggshell(raw or soiled) is worse than one of active carbon. In elimination of trihalomethane, the effect of treatment of eggshell is almost the same as one of pine cones. And surface of eggshell(raw or boiled) after absorption of heavy metal ion was observed by Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM). Application and availability of eggshell(raw or boiled) as absorption material need lots of experiments. The experiment on baked eggshell is proceeding.

The Efficacy and Safety of 4-n-butylresorcinol 0.1% Cream for the Treatment of Melasma: A Randomized Controlled Split-face Trial

( Sun Young Huh ),( Jung Won Shin ),( Jung Im Na ),( Chang Hun Huh ),( Sang Woong Youn ),( Kyoung Chan Park ) 대한피부과학회 2010 Annals of Dermatology Vol.22 No.1

Background: Melasma is a common acquired symmetrical hypermelanosis that occurs on sun-exposed areas, and it is frequently observed among women. Various treatment modalities have been tried, but none are completely satisfactory. 4-n-butylresorcinol, which is a resorcinol derivative that has an inhibitory effect on both tyrosinase and tyrosinase-related protein-1, was introduced in 1995 and it has received increasing attention as a new hypopigmenting agent. However, the hypopigmenting effect of 4-n-butylresorcinol in human subjects has only been shown in a few studies. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the hypopigmenting efficacy and safety of 4-n-butylresorcinol 0.1% cream for the treatment of melasma. Methods: Twenty patients with melasma were enrolled to this randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled, split-face comparative study. The patients were instructed to apply 4-n-butylresorcinol 0.1% cream or vehicle to each side of the face twice daily for 8 weeks. Mexameter measurements were performed along with photography at baseline, 4 weeks and 8 weeks. Adverse events were observed and recorded throughout the study. Results: All the patients completed the study. Mexameter measurements demonstrated that the melanin index of the treated side showed a significant decrease when compared with that of the vehicle-treated side after 4 weeks (p=0.006) and after 8 weeks (p<0.0005). All the adverse reactions were mild and transient. Conclusion: 4-n-butylresorcinol 0.1% cream showed rapid efficacy and it was well tolerated when used for the treatment of melasma.

This study was aimed to determine influenza vaccination coverage in 2004 in Korean and investigate the factors associated with vaccination. Documentation of vaccination status and baseline data was conducted by a survey using questionnaire sheets. Baseline data and vaccination status were documented on 1465 people out of whom 60.1% received the influenza vaccine. Forth-seven percent of the responders were male; 4% were aged 1-12, 32% were aged 13-39, 32% were aged 40-64 and 32% were aged 65 or older. Twenty-three percent reported a chronic illness, increasing their risk for complications from influenza. Predictors of influenza vaccination were: older age (OR=11.7, 95% CI 5.1-26.8), the presence of chronic illness (OR=2.3, 95% CI 1.1-4.7), previous vaccination(OR=1.8, 95% CI 1.1-2.8), belief that influenza vaccine is effective in preventing influenza (OR=2.5, 95% CI 1.1-5.7) and education level (OR=1.7, 95% CI 1.0-2.7). Immunization rates were much higher in those who will take immunization again (OR=10.4 95% CI 5.5-19.6). Factors affecting the decision on immunization were self-determination (43.6%), public relations (24.1%), recommendation from family members or friends (22.4%) and consulting with health professionals (5.8%). The main reason not to take influenza vaccine was the thought that they are healthy (50.1%). Overall, influenza vaccine coverage was high in those aged 65 or older. Immunization against influenza was influenced more by existing medical problem and belief about th vaccine's effectiveness, rather than sex or residence.
