Objective : The purpose of this study was to compare and analyze the effect of ILIT and ELIT according to sex, age, disease on Hypercholesterolemia.
Methods : The 73 patients who were irradiated to the Intravascular Laser and the 57 patients who were irradiated to the Extravascular Laser from 1999 to 2005 in Sam-se oriental medicine hospital were the study group. They were irradiated two or three times a week and checked total cholesterol before and after ten times of irradiation. The checked total cholesterol point, 150-199 were normal, 200-239 were borderline, over 240 were abnormal. They were classified into male and female(43 persons, 87 persons), adult and 01d(62 persons, 68 persons), cardiovascular disease and the other diseases(70 persons, 60 persons).
Results : 1. Male, adult, and the other diseases groups were more effective in cholesterol reduction and in convertible change of each group than female, old, and cardiovascular disease groups, but only the convertible change of each group had statistic significance. 2. In male, old, and cardiovascular disease, ELIT was more effective than ILIT in cholesterol reduction and convertible change of each group, but this result didn’’t have statistic significance. 3. In female, ELIT was more effective than ILIT in cholesterol change but this result didn’’t have statistic significance. ILIT was more effective than ELIT in convertible change of each group and this result had statistic significance. 4. In adult and the other diseases, ILIT was more effective in cholesterol reduction, but this result didn’’t have statistic significance. ILIT was more effective than ELIT in convertible change of each group too and this result had statistic significance.
Conclusion: It was thought to be undesirable to decide which is more effective treatment, but to be more desirable to choose one of ILIT or ELIT according to sex, age, disease than to decide it indiscriminately.
