An introduction to the recently excavated Chunggang Medical Records and research on their medical value

Kim, Nam-Il,Yun, Seng-Yick,Hong, Sae-Young,Ahn, Sang-Woo,Cha, Wung-Seok Kyung Hee Oriental Medicine Research Center 2007 Oriental pharmacy and experimental medicine Vol.7 No.2

This study is a report on recently discovered medical records based on traditional medicine in the 1900s. First, the contents of the records and their significance are described in detail. Next, a simple example of the research follows, in order to explain the medical and historical significance the records contain and to answer the question of how this historical document can contribute to future medical and historical studies. The documents dealt with in this study, the Chunggang Medical Records, are medical records compiled by a Korean doctor of oriental medicine by the name of Younghun Kim who practiced in the center of Seoul for a period of over 60 years. The records, which eventually amounted to over 1,500 books, were made known to the academic world when the descendents recently donated them to Kyunghee University. The reason these medical records attract so much attention from academic circles, even though they are the work of one individual, is that they contain abundant information on general public medical health at the time, in addition to the fact that Kim Younghun was a well known figure among Oriental Medicine doctors in Korea. The medical records start in 1915 and continue until Kim Younhun's death in 1974, though they have some damaged or missing parts. Kim's medical records are a gold mine not only for scholars studying the medical history of the early 1900s, but also for doctors trying to emulate the techniques embedded in a great predecessor's medical practice.

19세기 초반 노상추(盧尙樞)의 백운동 별업(別業) 조성과 경영

김성우(Kim Sung-woo) 한국역사연구회 2010 역사와 현실 Vol.- No.78

The subject of this article is a historical figure, Roh Sang-chu (1746-1829). After ending his 28-year-long bureaucratic career as the associate commander at Gadeuk Naval Fort in 1813, he started a typical life of a rural yangban in his home town, Seonsan, Gyeongsang-do province for 17 years until his death in 1829. The most notable feature that involved the latter years of his life at hometown was the creation of the Baeg'un-dong manor ("byeol'eop"). He started creating the manor in 1814 and dedicated himself to developing it as a mean for economic development and social stability of the village, until his death there after a long illness. It is the locale of Baeg'un-dong that this research pays the greatest attention to. It was a border village under the jurisdiction of Dogae-myeon, Seonsan prefecture in the Joseon dynasty. As a border village, it was much closer to Bian prefecture than to Seonsan. For this reason, Baeg'un-dong now belongs to Uiseong County. The fact that it was alienated from the Seonsan prefecture, in spite of its belonging to the prefecture, is the most crucial factor which determined the historical-geographical character of the village. It was for this reason that Roh Sang-chu made efforts to build a shelter for illegitimate descendants there. He had an illegitimate son, Roh Seung-yeop(1796-1842). Roh Seung-yeop and his descendants led a socio-economically stable life under the guardianship of Roh Sang-chu, who acted as a patriarch of the manor. But their stable life began to derail after the death of Roh Sang-chu, due to their disadvantageous social status as 'illegitimates.' In the course of the downfall, the second and third generation of descendants of Roh Seung-yeop had to earn their lives as hired hands or loggers, leading a hard life in a small, secluded area inside Hwa'rim, village for the legitimate descendants of Roh's lineage. It testifies to the fact that the illegitimates were given little opportunities for their social activities during Joseon dynasty. Given this social background of Joseon dynasty, Roh Sang-chu s experimentation to create a manor for the illegitimate descendants had to end with incomplete success.

이성우(Sung一Woo Lee),정광섭(Kwang-Seop Chung),김영일(Young-Il Kim) 한국지열·수열에너지학회 2011 한국지열에너지학회논문집 Vol.7 No.2

Since 1970s, energy-saving design criteria of buildings has been improved through numerous revisions. The purpose of this research is to show how energy saving design criteria affects heating energy consumption of apartments using district heating. Heating energy consumption has been measured in 4 apartments located in Gyeonggi province, Korea from Nov. 1, 2007 through Oct. 31, 2008. Collected data was regressed to linear correlations. Heating energy consumptions were calculated for past, present and future energy-saving design criteria, which are outdoor temperature, ventilation and insulation. The results show that present design criteria has reduced heating energy consumption by 15%, and the future criteria will reduce the energy consumption by 42% compared to the criteria before 2001.

Seong Hoon Kim,Ji Hoon Kim,Jae Hoon Lee,Dong‑Woo Suh,Jae Sang Lee 대한금속·재료학회 2022 METALS AND MATERIALS International Vol.28 No.9

Prediction of retained austenite fraction is quite important in designing advanced high strength steels since retained austeniteis the source of transformation-induced plasticity. The present study investigates the phase constitution of a medium-carbonQ&P steel by comparing various approaches to the transformation stasis of bainitic ferrite and applying them to the partitioningprocess. Among them, the modified GEB approach gave the best agreement with the experimental observation, includingthe effects of heat-treatment condition and chemical composition on phase constitution. This indicates phase transformationduring partitioning can be effectively described by the physics of Gibbs energy balance approach.

목적: 최근 극소 저출생 체중아의 생존율의 개선으로 기관지폐 이형성증(bronchopulmonary dysplasia, BPD)이 늘고 있다. 다기관 연구에 의해 전국적인 BPD의 역학, 임상 양상과 각 병원 간의 차이를 조사하여 향후 우리나라의 BPD 감소와 중증도를 줄이는 것을 목적으로 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방법: 2005년 6월부터 2007년 5월까지 건국대학교병원, 영등포 성애병원, 강북삼성병원, 중앙대학교병원, 건양대학교병원, 강릉아산병원의 신생아 집중 치료실에 입원하였던 신생아 4,476명을 대상으로 하였다. BPD의 진단 기준은 비전형적인 BPD를 포함하여 병인적인 분류를 하고 있는 Ogawa 등의 분류법을 이용하여 신생아 호흡 곤란 증후군(respiratory distress syndrome, RDS)과 전형적 또는 미만성 혼탁의 방사선 소견, 산전 감염의 유무에 따라 6가지 type으로 분류하였다. 또한 전체 신생아의 출생체중 분포와 생존율, 각 출생체중 군별 BPD의 발생률, 병태 비율, 사망률 등을 조사하고, 이 후 재택 산소요법 시행 여부와 미숙아 망막증, 괴사성 장염 등의 합병증 여부를 조사하였다. 결과: 생후 28일째 산소 치료가 필요한 신생아는 89명이었고, 이 중 Ogawa 분류법에 의한 BPD 환아는 70명(1.6%)이었으며, 특히 1,500 g 미만의 환아 237명 중 60명(25.3%)이었다. 생후 28일 이상 생존율은 98.7%이고, 사망 예는 없었으며 평균 재원 기간은 97.8±51.2일(43~405일)이었다. BPD는 900~999 g, 1,000~1,249 g의 체중 군에서 발생률이 각각 15명(21.4%)으로 가장 높았으며, 교정 36주 이후에도 산소투여가 필요한 중증 BPD의 경우 900~999 g의 체중 군에서 7명(23.3%)로 가장 높았다. Ogawa 분류법으로 BPD의 각 병태 비율로는 RDS 이후에 나타나는 I, II형이 각각 전체의 17예(24.3%), 44예(62.9%)로 대다수를 차지하였다. 이외에도 III`형은 2예(2.9%), IV형은 2예(2.9%), V형은 5예(7.1%)이었고, III형, VI형은 없었다. 재택 산소요법은 8예에서 시행되어 전체의 11.4%였으며, 이 중 BPD I형이 7예로 87.5%를 차지하였다. 미숙아 망막증은 35명(50.0%)에서 발생하였으며, 700 g 이하 신생아에서 9예(26.5%)로 가장 많았다. 또한 괴사성 장염은 3명(4.3%)이었다. 결론: 본 연구는 국내에서 처음으로 진행된 BPD의 전국적인 다기관 역학 조사로, 대상 신생아의 Ogawa 분류에 의한 BPD 유병률은 1.6% 이었고 1,500 g 미만 신생아의 25.3%이었으며, 전체 신생아의 BPD 70명 중 Ogawa 분류의 I, II형이 각각 24.3%, 62.9%로 대다수를 차지하였다. Purpose: As the neonatal intensive care advanced, the incidence of neonatal bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) has increased. We conducted a multi-center investigation of the prevalence of BPD in six hospitals to investigate the epidemiology of BPD in Korea. Methods: Retrospective reviews ware performed for survival rate, prevalence of BPD of total 4,476 newborn infants who were admitted to neonatal intensive care unit in Konkuk university hospital, Sung-Ae General hospital, Kangbuk Samsung hospital, Chung-Ang university hospital, Konyang university hospital, and Gangneung Asan hospital between June, 2005 and May, 2007. By Ogawa, BPD was defined as oxygen dependency at 28 days after birth, with respiratory distress symptoms and the change of chest x-ray finding, and classified as 6 subtypes. Classic BPD was defined as oxygen dependency at 36 weeks of postmenstrual age. Results: Survival rate at 28 day after birth was 98.7%. BPD infants by Ogawa classification were 70 (1.6% of overall newborn infants), classic BPD infants were 30 (0.7%). Especially, among 237 preterm infants with birth weight less than 1,500 gram who survived to 28 days of life, 60 (25.3%) had BPD by Ogawa classification and 23 (9.7%) had classic BPD. In Ogawa classification, infants with RDS as type I and II, were 17 infants (24.3%) and 44 infants (62.9%). Home oxygen therapy was performed 8 infants (11.4%). Prevalence of retinopathy of prematurity was 35 infants (50.0%), necrotizing enterocolitis was 3 infants (4.3%), and intraventricular hemorrhage was 6 infants (8.6%). Conclusion: Prevalence of BPD infants was 1.6% of overall newborn, 25.3% of preterm infants with birth weight less than 1,500 gram. Among 70 BPD infants, BPD by Ogawa classification with history of RDS as type I and II were 24.3%, 62.9% as the majority of BPD. This study would be the first report of epidemiology of Korean BPD infants by multi-center study.

Protective effect of Korean Red Ginseng against FK506-induced damage in LLC-PK1 cells

Lee, Dahae,Kang, Ki Sung,Yu, Jae Sik,Woo, Jung-Yoon,Hwang, Gwi Seo,Eom, Dae-Woon,Baek, Seung-Hoon,Lee, Hye Lim,Kim, Ki Hyun,Yamabe, Noriko The Korean Society of Ginseng 2017 Journal of Ginseng Research Vol.41 No.3

Background: Compound FK506 is an immunosuppressant agent that is frequently used to prevent rejection of solid organs upon transplant. However, nephrotoxicity due to apoptosis and inflammatory response mediated by FK506 limit its usefulness. In this study, the protective effect of Korean Red Ginseng (KRG) against FK506-induced damage in LLC-PK1 pig kidney epithelial cells was investigated. Methods: LLC-PK1 cells were exposed to FK506 with KRG and cell viability was measured. Western blotting and RT-PCR analyses evaluated protein expression of MAPKs, caspase-3, and KIM-1. TLR-4 gene expression was assessed. Caspase-3 activities were also determined. The number of apoptotic cells was measured using an image-based cytometric assay. Results: The reduction in LLC-PK1 cell viability by $60{\mu}M$ FK506 was recovered by KRG cotreatment in a dose-dependent manner. The phosphorylation of p38, p44/42 MAPKs (ERK), KIM-1, cleaved caspase-3, and TLR-4 mRNA expression was increased markedly in LLC-PK1 cells treated with $60{\mu}M$ FK506. However, with the exception of p-ERK, elevated levels of p-p38, KIM-1, cleaved caspase-3, and TLR-4 mRNA expression were significantly decreased after cotreatment with KRG. Activity level of caspase-3 was also attenuated by KRG cotreatment. Moreover, image-based cytometric assay showed that apoptotic cell death was increased by $60{\mu}M$ FK506 treatment, whereas it was decreased after cotreatment with KRG. Conclusion: Taken together, these results suggest that the molecular mechanism of KRG in the FK506-induced nephrotoxicity may lead to the development of an adjuvant for the inhibition of adverse effect FK506 in the kidney.
