본 연구에서는 2003년 6월~2003년 12월 사이에 탈북적응훈련 교육원에 입소한 854명의 북한 이탈주민들의 신체 계측치를 이용하여 북한 이탈주민들의 체질량지수(BMI)를 파악함으로써 북한 주민들의 건강상태를 간접적으로 유추하였다. 연구결과 신장은 전 연령에서 남한이 북한보다 컸으며, 남한주민의 체중이 북한보다 많았다. 또한, 20세 이상 남북한 주민의 BMI 분포를 연령별로 보면 북한 이탈 남성의 경우 55세 이상 연령집단에서과체중 현상을 보였으나, 남한의 남성은거의 모든 연령집단에서 과체중인 것으로 나타났다. 북한 이탈 여성의 경우 45-54세와 70-74세에서 과체중 및 1단계 비만을 보였지만, 남한 여성의 경우 40-44세, 50-74세는 과체중, 45-49세는 1단계비만으로 나타났다. 최근의 북한 이탈주민들일수록 신장, 체중 모두 작았다. 본 연구결과에 따르면 북한 이탈주민들은 식량부족사태가 있기 이전부터 이미 남한과 신체 계측치에서 차이를 보였으며,1980년 말부터 시작된 식량난과 1990년대 중반에 지속적으로 일어난 자연재해 등으로 인해 북한 주민들은 더 왜소화되고 만성적 영양결핍상태가 더욱 만연해지고 있음을 알 수 있다.

Purpose : This study was conducted to assess the usefulness of fat-free mass index (FFMI) and fat mass index (FMI) as novel expression methods of body composition in children. Methods : A total of 466 Second grade students-248 boys and 218 girls- from all elementary schools the Gwacheon City underwent anthropometric measures including bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and biochemical tests. The correlation coefficients between obesity indices, including FMI and FFMI, and metabolic risk factors, were assessed. Metabolic risk factors of children with increased FMI were compared with those of children with normal FMI. We compared FMI and FFMI percentile distribution between this study's subjects and the subjects of the Fukuoka body composition study. Results : FMI was lower and FFMI was higher in this study's subjects compared to the subjects of the Fukuoka body composition study. FMI was correlated with other obesity indices and several metabolic risk factors. Metabolic risk was higher in children with increased FMI than in children with normal FMI. Conclusion : FMI and FFMI were useful indicators in comparing difference of body composition among children that had different body size and growth. High FMI was related to increase of metabolic risk in children.

Purpose : The objectives of this study was to evaluate the correlations between the indices of insulin sensitivity using fasting glucose and insulin level, and the body fat mass measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis(BIA) and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry(DEXA), and to determine the clinical usefulness of insulin sensitivity indices when obese children were followed up. Methods : In this study, 28 simple obese children and adolescents were included. Anthropometric data including body weight, height, obesity degree(OD), body mass index(BMI), and waist-to-hip ratio were collected and then body fat mass was measured by using BIA and DEXA. For metabolic data, 12 hour fasting serum glucose, insulin and lipid profiles were measured and indices for insulin sensitivity(G/I ratio, $log_{insulin}$, HOMA-IR, $log_{HOMA-IR}$, QUICKI) were calculated. Results : BMI had a higher correlation with insulin sensitivity indices than OD(G/I ratio, -0.463 vs -0.209; $log_{insulin}$, 0.417 vs 0.196; HOMA-IR, 0.301 vs 0.238; $log_{HOMA-IR}$, 0.403 vs 0.198; QUICKI, -0.451 vs -0.224). But OD had a higher correlation with body fat mass measured by BIA and DEXA than BMI(BIA, 0.612 vs 0.316; DEXA, 0.667 vs 0.512). The G/I ratio was correlated with body fat mass in BIA(r=-0.420, P<0.05) and DEXA(r=-0.512, P<0.01), percentage of body fat(percentage of fat) in BIA(r=-0.366, P<0.05) and DEXA(r=-0.449, P<0.01). HOMA-IR was only correlated with body fat mass in DEXA(r=0.341, P<0.05). Conclusion : This study revealed that G/I ratios had a statistically significant correlation with anthropometric obesity indices(OD and BMI) and also had a correlation with both body fat mass and percentage of fat. These results suggest that G/I ratios could be used as useful index when obese children and adolescence are followed up.

Standard values for fetal bio index measurements should be applied differently depending on the past present and general characteristics of the target population. Therefore, we tried to predict the number of gestational week(GA) and analyze the differences by country based on the measurements of Korean fetal bio index. 480 fetal bio index measurements between 15~38 weeks of pregnancy using ultrasound were compared retrospectively with USA ad Japanese data. One Way ANOVA was used for the analysis of differences by country, and quadratic regression model was designed to predict the GA of fetal bio index in order to predict the standard pregnancy number of Korean fetuses(p<0.005). Mean difference in the 95% confidence interval is BPD was Korea and USA 0.17, Korea and Japan 0.11, AC was Korea and USA -0.35, Korea and Japan 0.42, FL was Korea and USA -0.18, Korea and Japan 0.14. Therefore, fetal bio index for GA predict is considered to be the standard of the fetal growth assessment by applying the country specific standard in consideration of differences between races.

This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between maximum oxygen uptake and its related factors including body measurement and vascular compliance. The subjects of our study were 43 males and 53 females aged 40 to 59 who were visited in military health center. The main results were that 1.the degree of obesity had significantly negative correlation to vascular compliance in male, and waist-hip ratio in female. 2. The degree of obesity, body mass index, waist-hip ratio and body fat percent had significantly negative correlation to maximum oxygen uptake in male, and waist-hip ratio & body fat percent in female. 3. Maximum heart rate had significantly positive correlation to maximum oxygen uptake in male, and vascular compliance & maximum heart rate in female. 4. In multiple regression analysis which maximum oxygen uptake was as dependent variable, body fat percent, vascular compliance and maximum heart rate were significant variables for both male and female. In conclusion, Maximum oxygen uptake of some rural people age 40 to 59 were affected by various factors such as body fat percent, vascular compliance, and maximum heart rate.

Purpose: To investigate the relationship between axial length (AL) and anthropometric parameters in Korean children. Methods: This study included 40 urban school children aged 11-12 years (mean age, $11.95{\pm}0.22$ years; 45.0% girls) residing in Seoul, South Korea. AL (using partial coherence laser interferometry), corneal radius, refractive error, height (m), and weight (kg) were measured. Body mass index (BMI $[kg/m^2]=weight/[height]^2$) and degree of obesity (DO[%]=[actual weight standard weight]/standard weight) were calculated. Furthermore, the number of hours spent reading, watching television, and using a computer every day was determined using a detailed questionnaire. Results: The students had a mean spherical equivalent refraction of $1.06{\pm}0.84$ D. Weight (r=0.427, p=0.006), BMI (r=0.508, p=0.001), and DO (r=0.371, p=0.018) showed a significant positive correlation with AL. Furthermore, longer AL was significantly associated with heavier weight (p=0.041), and higher BMI (p=0.015), and higher DO quartiles (p=0.042). After adjust for age, sex, and near-work activities, multivariate linear regression models showed that weight, BMI, and DO were still significantly associated with AL. Among the near-work activities, daily reading time was significantly associated with AL. Conclusions: AL was positively related to weight as well as daily reading time in Korean urban school children.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among the anthropometric measurements, body composition indices, biochemical indices and serum leptin level of obese school children. The study was conducted on 97 elementary school children from 4-5th grade residing in Daegu and Kyungbuk area. Obesity was defined as fat percentage that exceed 25% of body fat mass. The prevalence of obesity of subject was 58.3% for male and 54.1% for female. The mean value of height, weight, body composition indices and biochemical indices of obese group were significantly higher than those of control group. The leptin level was significantly different in obese group but showed no difference by gender. The differences of leptin level were according to adiposity and BMI in obese subjects. Multiple regression analysis data showed that the BMI and body fat mass may influence on the leptin level of subject. Also, these data revealed the leptin resistance in obese children and relationship between leptin level and various factors including anthropometric measurements, body composition and biochemical indices. Additional research should be necessary to assess the mechanism of leptin resistance in obese children.
