</ol>4. 부작용 및 관리
<ol><li>환자의 불편함<ol><li>통증이 있습니다<ol><li>통증은 흔한 부작용이며11 통증은 5-7일 후에 대부분 사라진다고 환자에게 조언한다.</li>
			<li>시술 중에는 가는 실이 박힌 바늘과 캣거트 본체를 사용하십시오.</li>
			<li>통증에 민감하고 알려진 금기 사항이 없는 환자를 위해 수술 전 경구용 진통제를 고려한다11; 필요한 경우 캣굿을 삽입하기 전에 리도카인으로 국소 마취를 투여합니다12.</li>
		</ol></li>
		<li>바늘 관련 실신 알림: 이것은 경혈 캣굿 삽입 치료 중 현기증, 시야 흐림, 심계항진, 메스꺼움, 심지어 실신이 갑자기 발생하는 것을 말합니다.<ol><li>환자가 기절하면 즉시 캣거트 매립을 중단하고 환자의 활력 징후를 관찰하십시오. 경미한 경우에는 환자에게 잠시 누워 있으면서 따뜻한 물이나 설탕이 든 음료를 마시게 한다. 증상이 완화되지 않는 경우에는 현대적인 응급 처치 방법을 사용하십시오.</li>
		</ol></li>
		<li>출혈 또는 국소 혈종<ol><li>매복 부위에 수술 후 출혈이 발생한 경우에는 국소 부위에 마른 면봉으로 부드러운 압력을 가하여 출혈을 멈춥니다.</li>
			<li>혈종이 형성되면 24시간 이내에 냉찜질을 하고 24시간 후에 온찜질을 하여 혈종 흡수를 촉진합니다. 참고: 출혈이 지속되거나 상당한 경우 혈관 손상을 나타낼 수 있으므로 외과적 개입이 필요합니다.</li>
		</ol></li>
	</ol></li>
	<li>Catgut 신체 거부 반응<ol><li>발열 참고: 모든 열은 일반적으로 1주일 이내에 사라집니다.<ol><li>환자에게 물을 많이 마시도록 지시하십시오. 지속적인 열은 신체 냉각 또는 경구용 해열제로 치료하십시오.</li>
			<li>장기간 고열이 발생하면 외과 전문의가 즉시 냉각하고 내장된 고양이 창자를 제거하도록 하십시오.</li>
		</ol></li>
		<li>알레르기 반응<ol><li>국소 발적, 발진 및 가려움증과 같은 알레르기 증상을 찾으십시오. 알레르기 관리를 위해 항히스타민제(예: 클로르페니라민 말레산염, 세티리진, 로라타딘) 또는 코르티코스테로이드(예: 덱사메타손)를 제공하고 필요한 경우 몸에 박힌 고양이 창자를 제거합니다.</li>
		</ol></li>
		<li>결절 또는 종괴<ol><li>작은 결절은 일반적으로 저절로 해결됩니다. 국소적으로 단단한 덩어리의 경우, 뜸과 경혈 주사와 같은 방법을 사용한다13.</li>
		</ol></li>
		<li>스레드 오버플로<ol><li>돌출된 catgut를 자르거나 추출한 다음 다시 포함하여 스레드 오버플로를 관리합니다.</li>
		</ol></li>
		<li>감염<ol><li>캣굿 삽입 후 처음 5일 동안은 국소 부위에 다양한 정도의 염증이 있을 수 있습니다. 매립 부위에 과도한 분비물이 나오거나 화농성 변화의 징후가 있는 경우에는 감염 관리를 위해 항생제로 치료합니다. 필요한 경우 외과적 개입을 받으십시오.</li>

저자는 이해 상충이 없다고 선언합니다.

고대 한의학서에는 만성 골반통에 대한 기록이 없으며, 증상 특성에 따라 '복통', '여성의 복통', '생리 복통'과 같은 질병과 상호 언급 할 수 있습니다. 한의학 이론에 따르면 혈관이 열려 있을 때 부적절한 관리는 습기와 악열과 같은 병원성 요인의 침입으로 이어질 수 있으며, 이는 자궁과 자궁 통로에 정체될 수 있으며, 이로 인해 병원성 요인과 건강한 에너지 사이의 투쟁으로 이어질 수 있으며 ...

만성 골반통(CPP)은 6개월 이상 지속되고 비주기적이며 비마약성 진통제에 반응하지 않는 골반통을 말합니다. 최신 연구에 따르면 CPP의 전 세계 발병률은 ~5%-26%1입니다. 순차성 골반 염증성 질환(SPID)은 CPP를 유발하는 주요 질환 중 하나로, 여성의 모든 만성 골반 통증 사례의 23%-30%를 차지합니다2. 이러한 통증을 완화하는 데 기존 진통제의 효능이 제한적으로 작용하기 때문에 CPP 환자의 50% 이상이 비약물적 치료를 받을 수 있다3. 현재 주요 비약물적 치료법으로는 골반저근물리치료, 심리치료, 신경조절치료, 당뇨병치료가 있습니다. 그러나 차선의 통증 완화 및 장기적인 통제의 어려움과 같은 한계도 있습니다. CPP를 앓고 있는 대부분의 SPID 여성은 불안, 우울증 및 반복적인 통증으로 인한 삶의 질 저하를 경험한다4. 따라서 환자의 통증 증상을 완화할 수 있는 효과적인 치료 방법을 찾는 것이 임상적으로 시급한 관심사가 되었습니다.
침술과 뜸은 중국 전통 의학의 주요 외부 치료 방법 중 두 가지로, 통증 관련 질환을 치료하는 데 우수한 효능을 보였으며 임상 실습, 특히 만성 통증 완화에 널리 사용되어 CPP에 대한 다른 비약물적 치료를 능가하는 효과를 보였습니다 5,6. 한의학을 이용한 양압기 치료에 대한 단면 연구에서 만성 통증 환자의 7.63%가 침 및 뜸 치료를 받도록 선택되었으며, 그 결과 우수한 치료 결과가 나타났다7. 이 글에서 소개하는 경혈 캣굿 임베딩은 침술과 뜸의 확장이자 발전이다. 그것은 특별히 고안된 일회용 의료 기기를 사용하여 흡수성 고양이 창자를 해당 경혈에 이식하고 장기적이고 지속적인 경혈 자극을 제공하여 진통 효과를 얻는 중국 전통 의학 외부 치료 기술을 말합니다. 저자의 팀은 이 기술을 사용하여 SPID로 인한 여성의 재발성 및 불치성 골반 통증을 치료하여 긍정적인 결과를 얻었습니다. 이는 단독 치료법으로 활용될 수도 있고, 종합적인 한의학 치료 계획의 중요한 구성 요소로 활용될 수도 있으며, 중국 전통 의학과 서양 의학의 조합으로 활용될 수도 있습니다. 이 기사에서는 SPID가 있는 가장 흔한 한의학 증후군(습윤, 열 정체 유형) 환자를 예로 들어 경혈 캣거트 삽입 절차에 대한 자세한 시연을 제공합니다.

The Measurement and Treatment of Suppression in Amblyopia

Amblyopia, a developmental disorder of the visual cortex, is one of the leading causes of visual dysfunction in the working age population. Current estimates put the prevalence of amblyopia at approximately 1-3%1-3, the majority of cases being monocular2. Amblyopia is most frequently caused by ocular misalignment (strabismus), blur induced by unequal refractive error (anisometropia), and in some cases by form deprivation.
Although amblyopia is initially caused by abnormal visual input in infancy, once established, the visual deficit often remains when normal visual input has been restored using surgery and/or refractive correction. This is because amblyopia is the result of abnormal visual cortex development rather than a problem with the amblyopic eye itself4,5 . Amblyopia is characterized by both monocular and binocular deficits6,7 which include impaired visual acuity and poor or absent stereopsis respectively. The visual dysfunction in amblyopia is often associated with a strong suppression of the inputs from the amblyopic eye under binocular viewing conditions8. Recent work has indicated that suppression may play a central role in both the monocular and binocular deficits associated with amblyopia9,10 .
Current clinical tests for suppression tend to verify the presence or absence of suppression rather than giving a quantitative measurement of the degree of suppression. Here we describe a technique for measuring amblyopic suppression with a compact, portable device11,12 . The device consists of a laptop computer connected to a pair of virtual reality goggles. The novelty of the technique lies in the way we present visual stimuli to measure suppression. Stimuli are shown to the amblyopic eye at high contrast while the contrast of the stimuli shown to the non-amblyopic eye are varied. Patients perform a simple signal/noise task that allows for a precise measurement of the strength of excitatory binocular interactions. The contrast offset at which neither eye has a performance advantage is a measure of the "balance point" and is a direct measure of suppression. This technique has been validated psychophysically both in control13,14 and patient6,9,11 populations.
In addition to measuring suppression this technique also forms the basis of a novel form of treatment to decrease suppression over time and improve binocular and often monocular function in adult patients with amblyopia12,15,16 . This new treatment approach can be deployed either on the goggle system described above or on a specially modified iPod touch device15.

Amblyopia is a developmental disorder of the visual cortex that is often accompanied by strong suppression of one eye. We present a new technique for measuring and treating interocular suppression in patients with amblyopia that can be deployed using virtual reality goggles or a portable iPod Touch device.

Intraoperative Detection of Subtle Endometriosis: A Novel Paradigm for Detection and Treatment of Pelvic Pain Associated with the Loss of Peritoneal Integrity

Endometriosis is a common disease affecting 40 to 70% of reproductive-aged women with chronic pelvic pain (CPP) and/or infertility. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the use of a blue dye (methylene blue) to stain peritoneal surfaces during laparoscopy (L/S) to detect the loss of peritoneal integrity in patients with pelvic pain and suspected endometriosis. Forty women with CPP and 5 women without pain were evaluated in this pilot study. During L/S, concentrated dye was sprayed onto peritoneal surfaces, then aspirated and rinsed with Lactated Ringers solution. Areas of localized dye uptake were evaluated for the presence of visible endometriotic lesions. Areas of intense peritoneal staining were resected and some fixed in 2.5% buffered gluteraldehyde and examined by scanning (SEM) electron microscopy. Blue dye uptake was more common in women with endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain than controls (85% vs. 40%). Resection of the blue stained areas revealed endometriosis by SEM and loss of peritoneal cell-cell contact compared to normal, non-staining peritoneum. Affected peritoneum was associated with visible endometriotic implants in most but not all patients. Subjective pain relief was reported in 80% of subjects. Based on scanning electron microscopy, we conclude that endometrial cells extend well beyond visible implants of endometriosis and appear to disrupt the underlying mesothelium. Subtle lesions of endometriosis could therefore cause pelvic pain by disruption of peritoneal integrity, allowing menstrual or ovulatory blood and associated pain factors access to underlying sensory nerves. Complete resection of affected peritoneum may provide a better long-term treatment for endometriosis and CPP. This simple technique appears to improve detection of subtle or near invisible endometriosis in women with CPP and minimal visual findings at L/S and may serve to elevate diagnostic accuracy for endometriosis at laparoscopy.

Loss of peritoneal integrity provides a new paradigm to understand and treat chronic pelvic pain in women with mild forms of endometriosis and can be easily detected using intraoperative instillation of dye at the time of laparoscopy.

Demonstration of Cutaneous Allodynia in Association with Chronic Pelvic Pain

Pelvic pain is a common condition that is associated with dysmenorrhea and endometriosis. In some women the severe episodes of cyclic pain change and the resultant pain becomes continuous and this condition becomes known as Chronic Pelvic Pain. This state can be present even after the appropriate medical or surgical therapy has been instituted. It can be associated with pain and tenderness in the muscles of the abdomen wall and intra-pelvic muscles leading to severe dyspareunia. Additional symptoms of irritable bowel and interstitial cystitis are common. A common sign of the development of this state is the emergence of cutaneous allodynia which emerges from the so-called viscero-somatic reflex. A simple bedside test for the presence of cutaneous allodynia is presented that does not require excessive time or special equipment. This test builds on previous work associated with changes in sensation related to gall bladder function and the viscera-somatic reflex(1;2).
The test is undertaken with the subject s permission after an explanation of how the test will be performed. Allodynia refers to a condition in which a stimulus that is not normally painful is interpreted by the subject as painful. In this instance the light touch associated with a cotton-tipped applicator would not be expected to be painful. A positive test is however noted by the woman as suddenly painful or suddenly sharp. The patterns of this sensation are usually in a discrete pattern of a dermatome of the nerves that innervate the pelvis.
The underlying pathology is now interpreted as evidence of neuroplasticity as a consequence of severe and repeating pain with changes in the functions of the dorsal horns of the spinal cord that results in altered function of visceral tissues and resultant somatic symptoms(3). 
The importance of recognizing the condition lies in an awareness that this process may present coincidentally with the initiating condition or after it has been treated. It also permits the clinician to evaluate the situation from the perspective that alternative explanations for the pain may be present that may not require additional surgery.

Urinary Bladder Distention Evoked Visceromotor Responses as a Model for Bladder Pain in Mice

Approximately 3-8 million people in the United States suffer from interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), a debilitating condition characterized by increased urgency and frequency of urination, as well as nocturia and general pelvic pain, especially upon bladder filling or voiding. Despite years of research, the cause of IC/BPS remains elusive and treatment strategies are unable to provide complete relief to patients. In order to study nervous system contributions to the condition, many animal models have been developed to mimic the pain and symptoms associated with IC/BPS. One such murine model is urinary bladder distension (UBD). In this model, compressed air of a specific pressure is delivered to the bladder of a lightly anesthetized animal over a set period of time. Throughout the procedure, wires in the superior oblique abdominal muscles record electrical activity from the muscle. This activity is known as the visceromotor response (VMR) and is a reliable and reproducible measure of nociception. Here, we describe the steps necessary to perform this technique in mice including surgical manipulations, physiological recording, and data analysis. With the use of this model, the coordination between primary sensory neurons, spinal cord secondary afferents, and higher central nervous system areas involved in bladder pain can be unraveled. This basic science knowledge can then be clinically translated to treat patients suffering from IC/BPS.

Approximately 3-8 million people in the United States suffer from interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), a debilitating condition characterized in part by pelvic pain. In order to study nervous system contributions to the condition, a physiological model of urinary bladder pain is used in mice and rats.

Transvaginal Mesh Insertion in the Ovine Model

This protocol describes mesh insertion into the rectovaginal septum in sheep using a single vaginal incision technique, with and without the trocar-guided insertion of anchoring arms. Parous sheep underwent the dissection of the rectovaginal septum, followed by the insertion of an implant with or without four anchoring arms, both designed to fit the ovine anatomy. The anchoring arms were put in place using a trocar and an "outside-in" technique. The cranial arms were passed through the obturator, gracilis, and adductor magnus muscles. The caudal arms were fixed near the sacrotuberous ligament, through the coccygeus muscles. This technique allows for the mimicking of surgical procedures performed in women suffering from pelvic organ prolapse. The anatomical spaces and elements are easily identified. The most critical part of the procedure is the insertion of the cranial trocar, which can easily penetrate the peritoneal cavity or the surrounding pelvic organs. This can be avoided by a more extensive retroperitoneal dissection and by guiding the trocar more laterally. This approach is designed only for experimental testing of novel implants in large animal models, as trocar-guided insertion is currently not used clinically.

Development of Recombinant Proteins to Treat Chronic Pain

Chronic pain is difficult to treat and new approaches to resolve persistent pain are urgently needed. Anti-inflammatory cytokines are promising candidates for treating debilitating pain conditions due to their capacity to regulate aberrant neuro-immune interactions. However, physiologically they work in a network of various cytokines, and therefore their therapeutic effect may not be optimal when used as stand-alone drugs. To overcome this limitation, we developed a fusion protein of the anti-inflammatory cytokines IL4 and IL10. Here, we describe the methods for production and quality control of IL4-10 recombinant fusion protein and we test the effectiveness of the IL4-10 fusion protein to resolve pain in a mouse model of persistent inflammatory pain.

In this paper we provide details for the methods of production and quality control of an IL4-10 recombinant fusion protein. We also show how to test the effectiveness of this protein to resolve pain in a mouse model of inflammatory pain.

Acupoint Needle-Embedding Combined with Ironing Therapy for Postoperative Pain After Anal Surgery

Acupoint needle-embedding combined with ironing therapy is a non-drug treatment method to release postoperative pain after anal surgery. The practice is guided by traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome differentiation theory and employs acupoint stimulation and heat to alleviate pain. Although prior research has shown that these are dependable methods for pain relief, the combined effect of the two techniques has not been described. In our research, we found that compared to using diclofenac sodium enteric-coated capsules alone, adding acupoint needle-embedding combined with ironing therapy was more effective for reducing pain levels at different stages after hemorrhoid surgery. Although this technique is efficient and commonly used in clinics, due to its invasive practice, acupoint needle embedding still carries risks relating to hospital-acquired infections and broken needles. Ironing therapy, on the other hand, can result in burns and connective tissue injuries. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized protocol for medical staff. Our protocol refines the traditional techniques and provides detailed instructions on patient preparation, operation techniques, and postoperative care to ensure the therapy is carried out safely and efficiently. By standardizing this therapy, this technique is expected to become an important complementary therapy for postoperative pain relief&#160;in hemorrhoids, which will significantly improve patients &#39;life quality after anal surgery.

The high incidence of pain after anal surgery is due to the physiological structure and pathological status of the anus. At present, the use of painkillers cannot provide satisfactory pain relief, which makes complementary therapy important. This paper proposes acupoint needle-embedding combined with ironing therapy to relieve postoperative pain.

Acupoint Catgut Embedding Therapy for Abdominal Obesity Treatment

As the global economy grows and living standards improve, the rise in overweight and obese individuals poses a significant public health challenge. This trend is predominantly linked to lifestyle changes and poor dietary habits, resulting in increased abdominal obesity characterized by fat accumulation in the abdominal region and associated symptoms such as indigestion, constipation, and fatigue. Acupoint embedding therapy uses absorbable sutures inserted into specific acupoints for continuous stimulation, aiding in the treatment of abdominal obesity, metabolic issues, and digestive disorders. Its main goals are to regulate metabolism, improve digestion, and reduce fat. This paper offers a thorough exploration of the comprehensive management of thread-embedding acupuncture for obesity treatment. It meticulously outlines critical aspects of patient management and material preparation and provides precise guidance on acupoint selection, surgical procedures, and postoperative care. This structured treatment protocol aims to ensure procedural safety and efficacy, thereby optimizing clinical outcomes for patients with abdominal obesity and ultimately improving their overall quality of life.
