This research aims to analyze the ethical requirements and to find the problems for the publication guidelines of oriental medicine journals. A total of 13 domestic journals, related to oriental medicine and registered in 'National Research Foundation of Korea' list, were selected for the analysis of ethical requirements. We inquired the revised year of the publication guideline and the status of ethics committee of selected journals. The ethical requirements of publication guidelines were evaluated by categorizing them into Institutional Review Board(IRB), Helsinki Declaration, Informed Consent, confidentiality and anonymity of subjects, and conflict of interest. In the case of revised year of the publication guidelines, the year of the most recently revised journal was 2011. However, the revised year of publication guidelines were not announced for three journals and a few journals haven't revised the publication guidelines since 2002. In the case of ethics committee status, four journals out of 13 journals maintained the ethics committee. In the result of ethical requirement analysis, nine journals included the information for confidentiality and anonymity of subjects, and four journals included the information for Helsinki Declaration and Informed Consent. However, only one journal included the information for IRB and conflict of interest. Recently, the importance of clinical researches has been increased to prove the effect of oriental medicine scientifically and objectively. The clinical researches should be considered in scientific side and ethical side as well, because they have potential risks to human subjects. In this sense, announcing the ethical requirements in the publication guidelines can be one way to secure the morality of researches. Thus, it is required to prepare correct publication guidelines and ethical requirements in oriental medicine journals.

The uncovered edition of the book ${\ulcorner}$Chandobangronmackkyulgipsung(纂圖方論脈訣集成)${\lrcorner}$ was found. The first edition of the book ${\ulcorner}$Chandobangronmackkyulgipsung${\lrcorner}$ may publish right after the year 1581. We decided to study the found book thoroughly, because any difference with the existing edition wasn't found when we glanced over it. Therefore, let's study differences of the books which are the same contents but revised at different period, the found one was revised before the war (Japanese Invasion of Korea in 1592) and the existing one revised after the war. Two parts was considered for this studying. The first part is for studying differences of the books by bibliography, the second part is for studying differences of them by contents. The changes of the books between before and after the war (Japanese Invasion of Korea in 1592) will be found by this studying and also we can guess how the book ${\ulcorner}$Chandobangronmackkyulgipsung${\lrcorner}$ was written. Hence, the published age and characteristics of the book will be verified. This studying is for proving that it was revised before the war ImJinWaeRan which was before the year 1612.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) results in high morbidity and mortality among patients both domestically and globally. The Korean clinical practice guideline for COPD was revised in 2014. It was drafted by the members of the Korean Academy of Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases, as well as participating members of the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service, Korean Physicians' Association, and Korea Respiration Trouble Association. This revised guideline covers a wide range of topics, including the epidemiology, diagnosis, assessment, monitoring, management, exacerbation, and comorbidities of COPD in Korea. We drafted a guideline on COPD management by performing systematic reviews on the topic of management with the help of a meta-analysis expert. We expect this guideline will be helpful medical doctors treating patients with respiratory conditions, other health care professionals, and government personnel in South Korea.

Purpose: Assessment of the trauma severity associated with the prognosis of trauma patients. But we are having a lot of difficulties in assess the severity because of scarcity of current first-aid records resources. Methods: We presumed that Applying the Revised trauma score which consist of vital signs and GCS score will be helpful to assess the sevirity.This study covers the 10069 patient of Ewah womans hospital (2011.1.1.-2014.12.31) who are able to verify the GCS score from fist-aid records. Results: There is no distinctions between prehospital RTS and hospital RTS. And shows high level of correlation between prehospital RTS and ISS. Conclusion: Therefore we conclude that checking the GCS and RTS at prehospital state will be help to assess the severity of trauma patients.

Hyperhidrosis is a condition characterized by excessive sweating. It can be generalized or focal. Generalized hyperhidrosis involves the entire body and is usually part of an underlying condition, most often an infectious, endocrine or neurologic disorder. Focal hyperhidrosis is idiopathic, occurring in otherwise healthy people. The condition carries a substantial psychological and social burden, since it interferes with daily activities. We treated two male patients who had hyperhidrosis on the head. In the point of Differentiation of Syndrom(辨證), these subjects were diagnosed as Bi-Wi-Gi-Her (Pi-Wei-Qi-Xu 脾胃氣虛) and was administered revised Bojungikgi-tang (reserved Buzhongyiqi-tang, 補中益氣湯加味方). All of two cases had anorexia, dyspepsia, fatigue. After treatment hyperhidosis and other symptoms improved.

Revised Piper Fatigue Scale (Piper et al., 1998)은 미국에서 개발된 암환자의 피로를 측정하는 자가보고서 형식의 도구이다. 이 도구는 총 22문항으로 네 개의 구성요소로 이루어져 있으며, 미국인 유방암 환자를 대상으로 신뢰도와 타당도가 검증되었다. 본 연구의 목적은 한국 유방암 환자를 대상으로 Revised Piper Fatigue Scale의 구성타당도를 재평가하기 위함이다. 총 122명의 유방암 환자가 번역-역번역 과정을 거쳐 한국어로 번역된 Revised Piper Fatigue Scale에 응답을 하였고 그 자료는 요인분석 (principal axis analysis with oblique rotation)에 의해 분석되었다. 요인분석 결과, 총 19문항으로 이루어진 네 개의 구성요소가 도출되었다. 총문항의 Cronbach's alpha는 .93이었고, 도출된 네 요인들의 alpha는 .84에서 .91이었다. 한국어로 번역된 총 19문항의 Revised Piper Fatigue Scale(revised PFS-K)은 한국인 유방암 환자에게도 적용될 수 있는 신뢰도와 타당도가 검증된 도구라 할 수 있다. 앞으로 다양한 한국인 암환자를 대상으로 계속해서 도구 검증이 이루어지기를 제언한다.
