Description

lontherapy apparatus for the causal treatment of hepatitis, diabetes and obesity
Field of the Invention This invention relates to a physical therapy apparatus to treat hepatitis, diabetes and obesity causally.
Background and Purpose of the Invention
Chronic hepatitis and diabetes are the malignancies defined by WHO and it is very important and urgent to establish the effectual therapeusis for the malignancies in the medical field.
In the treatment of hepatitis, chronic hepatitis B in particular, entecavir or tenofovir are now in wide use. But the treatment by using entecavir or tenofovir these medicaments can not recover the main functions of hepar such as elimination of toxicants and synthesis of albumin in the hepatic cells and have a drawback that the patient has to take medicine continuously during his lifetime.
In the treatment of diabetes, nowadays the treatment by using stem cell is recognized as an advanced and causal one, but it is expensive and unused widely because it is a surgical treatment. As a pharmacotherapy, insulin therapy is a treatment to supply lacking insulin to human body. This therapy also has a defect that it is not a causal treatment and insulin should be injected without interruption during life. Furthermore, the utilization ratio of insulin is low on the patients of insulin resistance and insulin cannot be used on the patients producing side-effect on it.
Further, there is no physical therapy apparatus that treats hepatitis, diabetes and obesity causally and has remarkable therapeutic value except surgical treatment and
1 pharmacotherapy in this field.
The purpose of this invention is to overcome the defects of the previous therapies for hepatitis and diabetes and provide a physical therapy apparatus that has remarkable therapeutic value, doesn’t cause harmful side effects and can treat hepatitis, diabetes and obesity causally in the monotherapy.
Brief description of the Invention
This invention relates to a physical therapy apparatus to treat chronic active hepatitis B and cirrhosis, diabetes and obesity causally. The physical therapy apparatus of the invention is an iontherapy apparatus in which an ion resin rod made of cation exchange resin is installed.
All living beings, both animal and plant, consist mostly of body fluids, electrolyte, and existance and transfer of charges in the electrolyte form electric and magnetic fields. Biological oxidation and reduction reactions and transmission of neural impulse are all related to the transfer of charges in the living beings.
When the ion resin rod made of cation exchange resin moves around the surface of the skin on which the diseased tissue of the human body is projected while contacted with it, frictional heat generated up to 60-80 °C by the friction between the ion resin rod and the skin, the while movements of cations occur in the ion resin rod. The movements lower the morbid potential of the projected part and return pH value to normal one in the diseased tissues.
That is to say, the movements restore the morbid charged status to normal one in the projected part of the diseased viscus, so that the progressive processes of inflammation, namely, blood circulatory disturbance (congestion and hemostasis) and
2 the anaerobic metabolic processes in the diseased tissues are arrested and pH value is restored to normal one in the local region. As the result, the inflammation which find expression in effusion, degeneration and growth step is inhibited.
And furthermore, the therapy by using the iontherapy apparatus is also effective for the treatment of obesity because subcutaneous and visceral fat are decomposed by thermal, contact and electric stimulus occurred when rubbing the skin with the ion resin rod.
Brief Description of the Drawings
An exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a schematic front view and side view of an iontherapy apparatus according to the exemplary embodiment;
Figure 2 is a schematic front view of a treatment unit of the iontherapy apparatus of Figure 1 ;
Figure 3 is a partial cross sectional view in the direction A-A of the treatment unit of Figure 2.
Detailed Description of Exemplary Embodiment
The iontherapy apparatus (10) of the invention comprises a treatment unit (100), a mounting frame (200), a supporting structure (300), a buffer unit (400) and a height control unit (500).
The mounting frame (200) acts with the buffer unit (400) so that the treatment unit (100) is placed safely. The mounting frame (200) is combined with the supporting
3 structure (300) so that the mounting frame (200) can move up and down by guide shaft (210), guide groove (310) and height control unit (500).
The buffer unit (400) comprises one or more buffer bands (410) fixed on the mounting frame (200). The buffer unit (400) may comprise one or more buffer springs combined with the mounting frame (200) and the treatment unit (100).
The buffer unit (400) enables an ion resin rod (135) to be placed vertically on the skin and plays a role to keep the suitable compression strength of the ion resin rod (135).
The height control unit (500) comprises one or more height control bolts (510) and one or more height control nuts (520) combined with the mounting frame (200) and the supporting structure (300).
The height control unit (500) enables the treatment unit (100) to move up and down by controlling the distance between the mounting frame (200) and the supporting structure (300) by rotating the height control nuts (520), and to keep the suitable height.
The treatment unit (100) comprises a translation motion part (110), a circular motion part (120) and a rotation motion part (130). The treatment unit (100) enables the ion resin rod (135) to move along a helical trajectory over its rotation motion in cooperation among the three parts. The translation motion part (110) comprises a fixed plate (111), an electric motor (112) fixed on the end of the fixed plate (111), a reduction gear (113) coupled with the electric motor (112), a swivel bolt (117) linked to the shaft of the reduction gear (113), a moving nut (118) in screwed combination with the swivel bolt (117), two guide boxes (116) and two guide shafts (114) and a moving plate (115) fixed in the bottom of the two guide boxes (116), and enables the ion resin rod (135) to shuttle. Once the
4 forward voltage is impressed on the electric motor (112), the swivel bolt (117) linked to the shaft of the reduction gear (113) turns on its axis in forward direction and it removes the moving nut (118) to the right. At the same time, a reduction gear (123) fixed to the moving nut (118), the moving plate (115) fixed to the reduction gear (123) and the two guide boxes (116) fixed to the moving plate (115) also move to the right along the two guide shafts (114). If the guide box (116) moves to the end of the guide shaft (114), the electric motor (112) automatically rotates in backward direction by an automatic switching circuit and the moving plate (115) moves to the left.
The circular motion part (120) comprises an electric motor (122) and a reduction gear (123) fixed to the moving nut (118) of the translation motion part (110), a turning axle (124) linked to the shaft of the reduction gear (123), a turning plate (125) and a rotator (126) fixed to the turning axle (124) and a stator (127) touched with the rotator (126) and fixed in the bottom of the moving plate (115) of the translation unit (110), and enables the ion resin rod (135) to draw a circle. Once the electric motor (122) is energized, the turning axle (124) rotates at about 120 times per minute by the reduction gear (123). At the same time, the rotation motion part (130) circulates along the circular track with the radius of 3 centimeters by the turning plate (125) fixed to the turning axle (124).
The rotation motion part (130) comprises a buffer spring (131) combined with the turning plate (125) of the circular motion part (120), an electric motor (132) combined with the buffer spring (131), a connecting rod (134) connecting the motor shaft with the ion resin rod (135) and the ion resin rod (135) and enables the ion resin rod (135) to turn on its axis. Once an electric current is sent to the electric motor (132) through the rotator (126) fixed to the turning axle (124) and the stator (127) fixed in the bottom of the moving plate (115), the ion resin rod (135) connected with the motor shaft turns
5 on its axis. The buffer spring (131) fixed to the electric motor (132) plays buffer action when the ion resin rod (135) moves on the surface of the skin.
The ion resin rod (135) installed in the rotation motion part (130) is a columnar cation exchange resin 11 millimeters in diameter and 13 millimeters in length, and the end which comes into contact with the skin is shaped like a dome. The iontherapy apparatus (10) rubs the skin of the focal region evenly in cooperation among the three motions of the ion resin rode (135) by the translation motion part (110), the circular motion part (120) and the rotation motion part (130) of the treatment unit (100), and takes thermal stimulus effect, ion emission effect and skin-stimulating effect in the course. The iontherapy apparatus can treat hepatitis, diabetes and obesity effectively through the such effects.
The descrived embodiments should not be construed as limitative. For example, the buffer unit of the iontherapy apparatus may comprise one or more buffer bands fixed on the mounting frame or one or more buffer springs combined with the mounting frame and the treatment unit.
The curative values of the iontherapy apparatus for hepatitis, diabetes and obesity are as follows:

The values in Table 1 were measured after 24 weeks of tenofovir treatment in the control groups and after 12 weeks of treatment with the iontherapy apparatus in the experimental groups.
As shown in Table 1 , 74, 73.9% had undetectable HBV-DNA in the control groups and 92, 91.3% in the experimental groups, 67, 61% had ALT normalization in the control groups and 90, 89% in the experimental groups, and 22% had undetectable
HBeAg negative in the control group and 100% in the experimental group. HBeAg seroconversion was observed in 21% of the patients in the control group and 75% in the experimental group. All the values in the experimental groups were slightly higher than in the control groups.
2) Changes in biochemical parameters measured by autoanalyzer Table 2. Change of main parameters of liver function (n=32)
Figure imgf000009_0002
The effectiveness was assessed by comparing between the main parameters of
7 liver function prior to and after the treatment.
Any drug or therapy to raise synthetic capacity of ALB in hepatic cells was not disclosed in prior arts. But in the treatment with the iontherapy apparatus, elevation of ALB was recognized in 32 patients (93.8%) and there was no significant difference in 2 patients (6.2%).
After the treatment with the iontherapy apparatus, in GGT tests, 26 patients (81 .3%) had GGT normalization and 6 patients (18.7%) had sharp reduction in GGT and this result shows that the treatment with the iontherapy apparatus had high ability to dissolve toxic agents in hepatic cells. In CHO tests, 2 of 32 patients (28.1%) were not exceeding 130mg/dl, 10 patients (31.3%) in 130~150mg/dl, 6 patients (18.8%) in 151 ~200mg/dl and 7 patients (21.8%) were not less than 200mg/dl before the treatment with the iontherapy apparatus. After the treatment, all the patients not exceeding 130mg/dl had the increased CHO levels not less than 140mg/dl with the increase of ALB and all the patients not less than 200mg/dl had the decreased CHO levels not exceeding 180mg/dl.
None of patients had been treated with the iontherapy apparatus in the region of the kidney, but most patients had Cre normalization in Cre tests and all the patients had high values in PLT tests.
3) Changes in blood glucose levels prior to and after the treatment with the iontherapy apparatus in Type 2 diabetic patients for which the treatment was efficacious

As shown in Table 3, of 16 incipient patients who have already diabetic symptoms, but were casually found by blood glucose test, 8 (50.0%) had normal blood glucose levels after 30 days of the treatment with the iontherapy apparatus, 4 (25.0%) after 40 days and the remaining 4 patients (25.0%) after 60 days, and in all 16 patients, relapse didn’t occur after leaving hospital.
In 18 patients who was treated with oral antidiabetic drug, but stopped treating with it after entering hospital and then was treated with the iontherapy apparatus, the blood glucose levels rose from 12th to 20th day after switching to the iontherapy and fell gradually after 21~25 days of the iontherapy. The lengths of treatment were different according to status of the pancreas. In 5 patients (27.8%) who were diagnosed as slight atrophy of the pancreas in ultrasonography, the mean pre-dinner blood glucose values were 162mg/dl after 60 days of the iontherapy, and in 13 patients (72.2%) who had no atrophy of the pancreas, the mean pre-dinner blood glucose values were 122.7mg/dl after 60 days of the iontherapy.
9 In a total of 29 patients, who had kept blood glucose levels with insulin therapy from the initial stage of diabetes, the quantity of insulin was gradually decreased from 14—21 days of the iontherapy. 6 patients (20.7%), who were diagnosed as slight atrophy of the pancreas in ultrasonography, received 10—16 U/day pre-mixed insulin twice a day after 2-3 months of the iontherapy and such a therapy kept the pre-dinner blood glucose levels at 110~130mg/dl 23 patients (79.3%), who had no atrophy of the pancreas, was treated with insulin decreased gradually and iontherapy for 50-60 days and with only iontherapy for 30 days. In result, the pre-dinner blood glucose levels were kept at 110~126mg/dl. After leaving hospital, relapses occurred in 7 (24.1%) of 29 patients, who disregard regimen, and relapse didn’t occur in the remaining 22 patients (75.9%) in 300 days.
15 patients, who had been treated with oral antidiabetic drug and insulin for 10 years or more, were treated with combined modality therapy using insulin and iontherapy apparatus because of insulin resistance caused by insulinizing for a long time.
8 patients (53.3%) were diagnosed as slight atrophy of the pancreas in ultrasonography and 7 patients (46.7%) have severe pathologic change of the pancreas and were diagnosed as fatty liver.
The said patients stopped taking oral antidiabetic drug while injected with increasing insulin and treated with iontherapy. The blood glucose levels rose above initial levels from 7th to 14th day after switching to combined modality therapy and gradually fell after 21-25 days of the iontherapy. The quantity of insulin gradually decreased as the blood glucose level fell.
8 patients, who were diagnosed as atrophy of the pancreas in ultrasonography, were treated with the iontherapy apparatus for 60 days and then were treated with the
10 iontherapy apparatus while injected with 10~16 U/day pre-mixed insulin in the morning and evening for 30 days. As the result, the pre-dinner blood glucose levels were kept at 105-135mg/dl without relapse for 300 days with injecting only insulin twice a day.
7 patients, who had no atrophy of the pancreas, were treated with iontherapy and insulin for 60 days and then were treated with only iontherapy for 30 days. As the result, pre-dinner blood glucose levels were kept at 115-140mg/dl. In the teleobservation for 300 days, the pre-dinner blood glucose levels rose to 150-180mg/dl in 2 patients (28.6%) who disregard regimen, and relapse didn’t occur in the remaining 5 patients (71.4%). 4) Curative effect of the iontherapy apparatus on abdominal obesity

Figure imgf000013_0001
A total of 42 patients of Table 4 were previously treated with the pharmacotherapy, but the treatment was not effective. So, they were treated with the iontherapy apparatus. In 33 (78.6%) of the 42 patients, the blood pressure tended to vary before the treatment with the iontherapy apparatus, but it became stable after the treatment and the systolic blood pressure fell 20-60mmHg. ll
