The prevalence of childhood and adolescent obesity has increased and exacerbated during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, both in Korea and globally. Childhood and adolescent obesity poses significant risks for premature morbidity and mortality. The development of serious comorbidities depends not only on the duration of obesity but also on the age of onset. Obesity in children and adolescents affects almost all organ systems, including the endocrine, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, reproductive, nervous, and immune systems. Obesity in children and adolescents affects growth, cognitive function, and psychosocial interactions during development, in addition to aggravating known adult comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, obstructive sleep apnea, and cancer. Childhood and adolescent obesity are highly associated with increased cardiometabolic risk factors and prevalence of metabolic syndrome. The risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases in later life can be considerably decreased by even a small weight loss before the onset of puberty. Childhood and adolescent obesity is a disease that requires treatment and is associated with many comorbidities and disease burdens. Therefore, early detection and therapeutic intervention are crucial.

An absorber is a major component in the absorption refrigeration systems and its performance greatly affects the overall system performance. In this study, experimental analyses on heat transfer characteristics for removal of absorption heat in ammonia-water bubble mode absorber were performed. Heat transfer coefficients were estimated as the variations of input gas flow rate, solution flow rate, temperature, concentration, absorber diameter and height, and input flow direction. The increase of gas and solution flow rate affects positively in heat transfer. However, the increase of solution temperature and concentration affects negatively. Moreover, under the same Reynolds Numbers, countercurrent flow is superior to cocurrent flow in heat transfer performance. In addition, from these experimental data, empirical correlations which can explain easily the characteristics of heat transfer are derived.

The purpose of this study is to explore the factors affecting purchase intention of smartphone in Chinese university students. We have identified five independent variables that affecting purchase intention of smartphone, which include price, compatibility, security, social influence and consumer innovations. We test the degree of influence of these five variables on customer satisfaction eventually and on purchase intention. To prove the hypothesis, we performed questionnaire investigation in Qingdao University. and final date of 187 samples were analyzed by using SPSS18.0 program. The result of hypothesis verification is the followings: As the independent variables of compatibility and consumer innovations are affects satisfaction; the price, security and social influence are not affects satisfaction and the satisfaction as the parameter affects the purchase intention which is the dependent variable in this study in Chinese university students. At the end of this study, the marketing implications for advancing to China market based on the results of empirical analysis were presented.
