This study was accomplished to investigate the prevalence of obesity in 371 Kumi-city middle school students. The means of this study were anthropometric measurement and questionnaires about nutrient intake and energy expenditure. Anthropometric measurements were height, weight, arm circumference and skinfold thickness(biceps, triceps, subscapular, supraliac, calf). The results obtained are as follows: Energy, calcium, iron intake for boys were lower than RDA. Iron intake was low in girls. Energy intake is lower than energy expenditure and RDA for boys. Energy intake, energy expenditure and RDA for girls were balanced. The average height, weight and arm circumference of boys were respectively 160.0cm, 49.4kg, 23.1cm and those of girls were respectively 155.9cm, 48.9kg, 22.6cm. Prevalence of obesity was respectively 5%, 4%, 7%, 4%, 59%, 15%, 14%, 24% for boys and 6%, 10%, 13%, 9%, 30%, 7%, 1%, 3496 for girls by RBW, BMI, RI, OI, %Fat I, %FatII, %FatIII, triceps. Correlation between subscapular skinfold thickness and BMI, RI, OI and %FatII showed high.

타액선 병변의 일반적인 영상진단법으로는 타액선조영술, 전산화단층촬영술, 자기공명 영상, 타액선 스캔, 초음파 촬영술이 있다. 이중 초음파촬영술은 타액선내 종양의 유무를 평가하는데 있어서 매우 우수하여, 전산화단층촬영이나 자기공명영상과 더불어 이용되고 있으나, 염증을 진단하는데 있어서는 타액선조영술보다 민감도가 떨어지는 단점이 있다. 일반적으로 타액선의 염증반응시 초음파상은 반향이 정상보다 낮아지며, 내부의 균질성이 떨어지는 양상을 보여 이를 진단의 기준으로 이용해왔으나 정상타액선에서도 반향이 편차가 심할 뿐만 아니라 연령에 따른 정상 타액선의 반향성에 대한 연구가 부족하여 진단에 어려움이 있었다. 이에 저자는 우선적으로 타액선에 병적인 증상이 없는 남녀 90명을 연령별(20-35세 : 청년군, 36~55세 : 중년군, 55-70세 노년군),성별에 따라 분류하여 정상 타액선의 초음파상을 얻었다. 이의 반향을 측정하고, 비만한 정도를 나타내는 체격지수를 구하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 이하선과 악하선 모두에서 연령군극_ 따라 반향성이 증가하는 양상을 보였으며, 청년군과 노년군 사이에는 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 2. 이하선과 악하선 모두에서 성에 따른 반향성의 유의한 차이는 없었다. 3. 성에 관계없이 악하선의 반향성이 이하선의 반향성보다 높았으며, 남자에 있어서는 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 4. 동일한 타액선에서 좌우측 타액선의 반향성의 평균 차이값은 유의한 차이가 없었다. 5. 이하선과 악하선의 반향성은 중등도의 양의 상관관계를 보였다(남자 : r=0.56, 여자 : r=0.54). 6. 체격지수와 타액선의 반향성은 약한 양의 상관관계를 보였다.

This study was conducted to investigate the prevalence of childhood obesity and to figure out the correlation between percentage of body fat and various criteria used for evaluating childhood obesity, and to suggest a new convenient criterion applicable to obesity assessment for large population. subject of 309(male: 153, female: 156) from Uisung elementary school in Kyungbuk, in the age range from 10 to 12 were recruited. The prevalence of obese was evaluated by the methods of Slaughter skinfold equations for children, BMI, and RI. fourteen(4.5%) by Slaughter eq, 39(12.6%) by BMI, 31 (10%) by RI were found to be obese. The results indicate that the evaluation of child obesity is influenced by the methods applied; that is, BMI and RI tend to overpredict the obese while percentage of body fat tend to underestimate. Percentage of body fat by Slaughter equations using triceps and calf skinfold is highly correlated with triceps plus subscapular skinfold thickness(male: r=0.91, female: r=0.88) and with Kim equations for Korean children(male: r=0.93, femlae: r=0.88). The results suggest that, if necessary, practitioners can adequately predict body composition without exposing the upper torso of females.

Se and Fe are trace minerals acting as antioxidant scavenging free radicals. Iron deficiency is the most frequently reported nutritional deficiency in females. Body iron status are known to be dependent not only upon dietary iron intake, but also upon micro-mineral nutrition and obesity. Antioxidants such as selenium are reported to play an important role on the regulation of erythropoiesis by protecting RBC membrane from antioxidative damage. In this study, iron status in young females and its relationships with selenium status and physique were examined. Serum selenium and iron concentrations were measured by HANARO research reactor using neutron activation analysis method (NAA-method). The proportion with iron deficiency and anemia were 27.1% and 8.6%, respectively in young females, but the proportion with iron deficient anemia was 1.4%. The mean serum selenium level was $12.0\;{\mu}g/dL$ and in normal range in the young women. The study participants were tertiled according to BMI and serum selenium levels. Serum ferritin and iron levels inclined with increasing BMI tertiles. Serum iron and RBC count were higher in middle selenium group than low selenium group. Individuals had significantly lower hematocrit level in the lowest tertile for their serum selenium levels compared with the highest tertile. The serum ferritin level was predicted 25% by BMI and RBC count 26.2% by the serum selenium level and body fat%. In conclusion, this study shows that body iron status in young adult females are influenced by obesity and body selenium status.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the body mass index and food habits of female university students (nutrition majors) in Seoul. The means of height, weight and BMI were 161.22${\pm}$4.63cm, 52.76${\pm}$6.59kg, and 22.20${\pm}$3.98, respectively. Subjects were divided into 3 groups based on BMI. The ratio of underweight, normal, and overweight students was 25.2%, 56.3%, and 18.5%. respectively. There were significant differences in the recognition rate of body shape and the way to maintain health by BMI. And self satisfaction rate of body shape was significantly higher in underweight subjects compared with others. There was no significant difference in the rate of activity and exercise, food behavior, intake frequency of various foods, intake of convenience food and carbonated drink according to BMI. Weight and body fat of subjects had a significant correlation with BMI. and height, frequency of taking food, frequency of meals, food behavior, intake food, health and exercise consciousness rate showed no correlation with BMI.

We investigated the prevalence of eating disorder risk group and its relationship with Physique status and eating behavior among high school students in Daejeon. In May - June 2002, 350 students were sampled from 6 high schools in Daejeon by multi-stage cluster sampling and assessed with self-completing questionnaires. We used the Korean version of Eating Attitude test(EAT-26) to screen eating disorder risk group. and other instruments to screen physique status and eating behavior. The response rate was 91%(total 320) and numbers of female students were 167(52.2%) and male students were 153(47.8%). Average age was 16.0${\pm}$0.35 years, and average body-mass index(BMI) and PIBW(Percent Ideal Body Weight) were 20.9${\pm}$3.3 Kg/m2 and 102${\pm}$4.2% in male students, 20.2${\pm}$3.7 Kg/m2 and 98${\pm}$7.2% in female students(p<0.0001). Over 50% of the subjects were dissatisfied with their body shape; the degree of dissatisfaction with body shape was higher in those who believed themselves to be fat. Mean score of EAT-26 was higher in female students (10.78${\pm}$7.36) than male students(6.07${\pm}$4.39)(p<0.0001). The prevalence of high risk eating disorder group was 2.6% in male students, 11.4% in female students(p<0.0001). Eating behavior was better in female students than male(p<0.0001). Eating behavior was significantly higher in eating disorder risk group in both sex. Therefore eating disorder symptomatology was highly prevalent among high school students in Daejeon. And this symptomatology has a more close relationship with physique status and eating behavior in female students.
