The purpose of this study is to provide basic data reflecting body characteristics for production of briefs by classifying lower body types of women in their 40s, 50s and 60s. The results are as follows: First, measurements for height-related items decreased while the measurements for width and depth items increased with age. However, 'hip width' and 'hip depth' items showed no significant differences among the age groups. In addition, no visible differences appeared in the length items among the age groups but 'waist to hip' and 'outside leg' lengths showed decreasing values according to age. Second, four factors were established from the factor analysis: 'obesity level around waist and abdomen', 'vertical length of the lower body', 'thickness and obesity level of lower limbs', and, 'size and shape of buttocks'. Lastly, cluster analysis resulted in the classification of the four factors mentioned above. Type 2 appeared the most, representing women in their 40s~60s. Type 1(n=257) was referred as 'slender with a short lower body', Type 2(n=443) as 'plump with short lower body', Type 3(n=224) as 'slender with long lower body', and Type 4(n=199) as 'obese around abdomen and lower limbs'.

The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between dietary variables and the prevalence of insulin resistance (IR) in middle-aged Korean adults using data from the 2007-2009 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Because IR is closely linked with metabolic syndrome, subjects were divided into three groups according to symptoms of metabolic syndrome: the 'Normal group' without any symptoms, the 'Risk group' with one or two symptoms, and the Metabolic syndrome (MetS) group' with three or more symptoms. Subjects between the ages of 30 and 65 years with no prior diagnosis or treatment for diabetes, hypertension, or dyslipidemia were selected. The number of subjects per group was as follows: 2,085 adults in the Normal group, 3,699 adults in the Risk group, and 1,160 adults in the MetS group. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to Adult Treatment Panel III criteria with modified waist circumference cutoff values (men ${\geq}$ 90 cm, women ${\geq}$ 85 cm). Subjects with HOMA-IR > 2.0 were classified as IR. Homeostasis Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) was calculated using the following formula: (fasting plasma glucose ${\times}$ fasting plasma insulin)/22.5. Nutrients and food groups intake were obtained from a single 24-hour recall. Subjects with IR in the Normal group were more obese and less physically active than non-IR subjects. In the MetS group, subjects with IR were more obese and had a lower prevalence of smoking and drinking, compared with non-IR subjects. Men with IR in the Normal group had a tendency to consume more oils and sugars than non-IR men, while women with IR in the same group had higher intake of carbohydrate, dietary glycemic index, and dietary glycemic load than non-IR women. Women with IR in the Risk group had lower energy intake but higher intake of oils and sugars than non-IR women. In the MetS group, consumption of fruits was higher in subjects with IR than in non-IR subjects. In conclusion, findings of this study suggest that dietary carbohydrate intake, including glycemic index, may be associated with IR in healthy women. Further research in prospective cohort studies in order to examine the effects of dietary carbohydrate on IR incidence will be necessary.

Body positivity has emerged among young social media users with the purpose of enhancing a positive body image. In the social media environment, body positivity is frequently presented in the forms of female models' images and/or words that represent individual attitudes toward the female body. The media effects on female viewers' body image differs based on the viewers' perceptions of their own body size. This experimental study examined how body positivity and types of expression on social media influence women's mood and appearance satisfaction by subjective body size. We randomly assigned to 415 young and middle-aged females to one of six experimental conditions which contained three images and three vignettes, each reflecting non-body positivity, body positivity, and control. We used a 3 (body positivity: non-body positivity vs body positivity vs. control) × 2 (types of body positivity expression on media: images vs vignettes) × 2 (subjective body size: under/normal weight vs overweight/obese) between-subject design. The results of MANCOVA revealed the significant main effects of subjective body size on women's mood and appearance satisfaction. There was a significant interaction effect of body positivity and subjective body size on appearance satisfaction. The stimuli representing body positivity caused positive psychological effects for women who perceive themselves being in the under/normal weight range.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to identify the relationship between obesity and bone mineral density in middle aged women. Methods: A cross-sectional survey design was utilized with a check list and physiological measurements. A total of 827 convenient samples were recruited from women who lived in the community. Bone mineral density was measured by T-score using the pixi method of Lumar on the left heel. Descriptive statistics and pearson correlation coefficient were utilized for data analysis. Results: Most were assessed as having normal weight(37.9%) or obese (57.4%) by BMI. Only 32% was assessed as having normal bone mineral density, while 40.3% had osteopenia, and 27.7% as osteoporosis. The BMI scores were significantly related to age, and episodes of fractures. Those with lower bone mineral density reported significantly more episodes of fractures and chronic disease. The T scores of Bone mineral density were significantly correlated with the scores of BMI (r= .126, p< .001). Conclusion: There is a strong need to develop intervention programs for this age group to manage bone mineral density loss to prevent occurrences of osteoporosis, and episodes of fracture.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to verify the effects of H Gambitang (GB-001) on body composition and basal metabolic rate in pre- and post-menopausal obese woman retrospectively. Methods: The study was conducted on 57 middle-aged obese women. They were divided into two groups; pre-menopausal obesity group (Pr-MOG; n=34) and post-menopausal obesity group (Po-MOG; amenorrhea was continued to 14~48 month, n=23) with no significant difference of age, height, body weight and body mass index. All subjects took herbal medicine 3 times a day, for 6 weeks during treatment period. The weight, height, body fat mass, skeletal muscle mass, and basal metabolic rate of all subjects were measured on first visit. The following measurements were repeated after 2 weeks (2nd), 4 weeks (3rd) and 6 weeks (4th) with Inbody 370 (Biospace) equipment to identify changes of body fat mass, skeletal muscle mass, and basal metabolic rate. Results are represented as mean and standard deviation. Results: Po-MOG showed significantly lower decrease rate in weight reduction on 2~6 weeks while significantly higher decrease rate in skeletal muscle reduction on 4~6 weeks. There were no significant differences between two groups in body fat reduction rate and basal metabolic increasing rate. Conclusions: H Gambitang (GB-001) can be used not only in Pr-MOG but in Po-MOG in weight loss although the effect can be lower in Po-MOG. To prevent skeletal muscle mass loss in Po-MOG, following study on adjusting dose and components of H Gambitang (GB-001) thought to be necessary.

이 연구에서는 비만중년여성을 대상으로 저강도 저항운동의 속도 차이가 신체조성, 근활성도 및 근력에 미치는 영향을 검토하는데 그 목적이 있다. 연구대상은 비만중년여성 24명을 일반속도의 저항운동집단(normal resistance training speed group; NSG, n=12) 및 느린속도의 저항운동집단(slow speed resistance training group; SSG, n=12)으로 무작위 분류하였다. NSG는 신장성 수축 1초, 등척성 수축 1초 및 단축성 수축 1초의 총 3초간으로 구성하여 35회 3세트를 실시하였으며, SSG는 신장성 수축 3초, 등척성 수축 1초 및 단축성 수축 3초의 총 7초간으로 구성하여 15회 3세트를 실시하였다. 1RM 30%의 저강도 저항운동은 두 집단 모두 동일하게 세트 당 105초, 세트 간 1분 및 운동 간 3분의 휴식시간, 그리고 주 2~3회의 4주간에 걸쳐서 실시하였다. 신체조성, 근활성도 및 근력은 운동전과 운동 4주후에 각각 동일한 방법으로 측정하였다. 신체조성에서 NSG는 WHR에서, SSG는 체지방률에서 운동 전과 비교하여 운동 후에 각각 유의하게 감소하였다(p<.05). 근활성도에서 NSG 및 SSG는 위팔두갈래근, 안쪽넓은근 및 가쪽넓은근에서 운동 전과 비교하여 운동 후에 각각 유의하게 감소하였다(p<.01, p<.05). 근력에서 NSG 및 SSG는 biceps curl 및 leg extension에서 운동 전과 비교하여 운동 후에 각각 유의하게 증가하였다(p<.01). 하지만 신체조성, 근활성도 및 근력은 집단 간의 비교에서 통계학적으로 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 따라서 이 연구에서 신체조성, 근활성도 및 근력은 저항운동의 속도차이(반복횟수)보다는 저항운동의 수행시간(근수축 발생시간)과 밀접한 관련성이 있을 가능성이 시사되었다.

이 연구의 목적은 8주간 동일한 운동량(일일 400kcal)으로 강도별 유산소성운동과 복합운동이 인슐린저항성과 심혈관질환 위험요인, 시간적 효율성에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 지를 구명하고자 한다. 2014년6월부터 2014년8월까지 40세 이상의 체지방률 30%이상인 여성 32명을 대상으로 하였으며, 유산소운동집단은 VO2max 50%(MAE, n=8)과 VO2max 80%(VAE, n=8)으로, 복합운동집단은 VO2max 50%+저항성운동(MARE, n=8)과 VO2max 80%+저항성운동(VARE, n=8)으로 각각 무선배정 하였다. 이 연구의 결과에서, 체지방률은 운동 후 모든 집단에서 유의한 감소를 보였으며, 인슐린저항성은 복합운동 두 집단에서 운동 후 유의하게 감소하였다(p<.05 & p<.01). CRP는 운동 후 낮아지는 경향을 보였지만 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 나타나지 않았으며 IL-6 또한 모든 집단에서 낮아지는 경향을 보였으나 VAE집단에서만 유의하게 낮아진 것으로 나타났다(p<.05). TNF-${\alpha}$의 농도의 변화에서는 MAE집단에서는 8주 후, 유의하게 감소되었지만(p<.05), VARE집단에서는 오히려 유의하게 증가되었다(p<.05). 운동시간의 변화에서는 모든 시기에서 낮은 강도의 운동집단보다는 높은 강도의 운동집단에서 유의하게 운동시간이 짧은 것으로 나타났다(p<.001). 이러한 결과는 체지방률은 운동의 강도와 형태에 관계없이 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으며 CRP는 운동의 강도와 형태에 별다른 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 인슐린저항성과 TNF-${\alpha}$의 농도는 운동의 형태에 따라 어느 정도 영향을 받는 것으로 생각되며 IL-6와 TNF-${\alpha}$, 운동시간은 운동 강도에 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났고 특히 운동시간의 변화에서는 보다 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 사료된다.
