  • 본 연구는 전국의 1,407명의 청소년 중 일반의약품과 또는 건강기능식품 비타민 무기질 보충제를 섭취한다고 응답한 청소년 921명 중 조사지 기입과 상시 면담이 가능한 남녀 각각 30명씩 총 60명 (15~18세)을 선정해, 조사지 작성 및 직접면담을 통해 일반의약품 및 건강기능식품 비타민 무기질 보충제, 3일간의 식사, 간식 섭취 실태를 조사함으로써 비타민과 무기질 최대섭취량을 파악하고 위해도를 평가하였다. 일상식사, 일반의약품과 건강기능식품 비타민 무기질 보충제 및 강화식품 섭취를 통한 비타민과 무기질 섭취량을 산출해 평균, 97.5 백분위수 (최대섭취량) 등을 구하고 권장섭취량 및 상한섭취량과 비교하였다. 일상식사를 통한 비타민과 무기질 섭취량은 권장섭취량의 0.3~4.4배이었다. 각각의 급원에서 상한섭취량 이상을 섭취한 대상자가 있는 영양소는 식사로는 비타민 A (1.7%)와 니아신 (5.0%), 일반의약품 비타민 무기질 보충제로는 비타민 C (9.1%)와 철 (5.6%), 건강기능식품 비타민 무기질 보충제로는 니아신 (8.6%), 비타민 $B_6$ (7.5%), 엽산 (2.9%), 비타민 C (2.3%)이었다. 식사, 일반의약품과 또는 건강기능식품 비타민 무기질 보충제, 강화식품을 통한 총섭취량이 상한섭취량 이상인 대상자가 가장 많은 영양소는 니코틴산 (33.3%)이었으며, 그 다음 비타민 C (26.6%) > 비타민 A (13.3%), 철 (13.3%) > 아연 (11.7%) > 칼슘 (5.0%) > 비타민 E (1.7%), 비타민 $B_6$ (1.7%)이었다. 이런 연구 결과로 볼 때, 한국 청소년 중 일상식사를 통해 충분한 비타민과 무기질을 섭취하는 경우 비타민 무기질 보충제와 강화식품을 섭취하면 비타민과 무기질 과잉섭취로 인한 부작용이 나타날 가능성이 클 것으로 여겨진다. 앞으로 더 큰 표본을 대상으로 정확한 섭취량 평가가 이루어져 비타민과 무기질의 상한섭취량 설정 및 바른 비타민 무기질 보충제와 강화식품 섭취에 대한 근거를 마련해야 할 것이다.

  • Objectives The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical characteristics in children and adolescents with peripheral facial palsy that was treated with Korean medicine. Methods The study was conducted based on 284 cases that consisted of 261 children (less than 19 years old) who visited the hospital of Korean medicine from August 2010 to August 2014. Then, this study was analyzed by reviewing the patients' charts. Results The incidence of facial palsy in pediatric patients was more common in boys than in girls and the mean age was 11.2 years. The prevalence of facial palsy was more common in winter and most were diagnosed with Bell's palsy. Recurrence was identified in 12.6% of the patients. The average age of the first attack was 9.5 years. It took about 3.2 years for recurrence to occur from the first onset. It took about 5 days to visit the hospital of Korean medicine from the onset. 81% of the patients came within 1 week from the onset. 50.7% of the cases did not receive any treatment before and 49.3% were previously treated at other hospitals. More than half of the patients (65.1%) received Korean medicine first. 54.6% of the patients were hospitalized and 45.4% received outpatient treatments in the hospital of Korean medicine. Outpatient treatments were administered about 11.5 times while hospitalized patients were treated for an average of 16.6 days. In general, hospitalized patients were treated more often than the outpatient group. An overall average duration of treatment was 70.6 days from the onset of facial palsy until the last day of treatment, and 53.0 days from the first day of treatment until the last day of treatment. 41.5% of the cases were treated only with Korean medicine and 49.0% were treated with a combination of Korean and Western medicine. The types of Korean medicine treatment used for facial palsy in descending order of frequency were acupuncture, Infra red, herbal medicine, SSP therapy, electro-acupuncture, carbone, hot pack, cupping, and moxibustion. The treatments that were most frequently used from Western medicines were steroid as monotherapy (61.7%) and a combination of steroids and antiviral therapy (37.6%). Conclusions This result showed that the risk of facial palsy recurrence among children is relatively high and that facial palsy requires a long-term treatment. It's helpful to explain about prognosis, treatment duration, and recurrence potential in children. Facial palsy in children is treated in various ways but more studies about the therapeutic effects of Korean medicine, Western medicine, and combination of Korean-Western medicine in children are needed.

  • 본 연구는 중학교 청소년의 신체활동이 정신건강에 미치는 영향을 파악함으로써 중학교 청소년의 정신건강 증진에 도움이 될 수 있는 보다 구체적 방안을 모색하고자 하였다. '2013년 제9차 청소년건강행태온라인조사' 원시자료를 이용하여 중학생 36,530명을 분석하였다. 복합표본자료 분석방법에 의해 분석하였다. 행복감 인지 정도는 학교 체육시간에 주 3회 이상 직접 운동하는 경우에 비해 2회 이하인 경우 행복감은 낮았으며 스트레스 인지 정도와 자살시도 가능성은 높았다. 참여하고 있는 팀 스포츠 수가 1개 팀 이하인 경우 행복감이 낮았으며 스트레스 인지 정도는 높았다. 4개 팀 이상 참여하는 학생에 비해 '1개 팀', '2개 팀' 참여가 자살가능성이 낮았다. 중학교 청소년들의 행복감 향상과 스트레스 완화에 도움이 될 수 있도록 2개팀 정도의 정규적 팀 스포츠 활동 참여와 교내 체육시간에 직접 운동을 주 3회 이상 수행함이 필요하며, 저학년인 경우 극단적 행동을 조절할 수 있도록 정서적 지지를 위한 교육프로그램이 함께 병행됨이 필요하다 여겨진다.

  • Purpose: The leading cause of death among teenagers in Korea is suicide. Also, it is known that mental health of Korean adolescents identified based on the levels of perceived stress or depression is very poor. The purpose of this study was to examine the current status of student mental health programs in Korea and the associated problems and to explore ways to make the programs more effective. Methods: The subjects of the study were a total of 115 school nurses and school counselors in elementary, middle and high schools. The study examined the current status and the associated problems of school mental health programs as well as the needs for teacher training programs related to student mental health. Results: Few mental health programs other than counseling for at-risk students were being carried out. The problems associated with student mental health management were, in terms of management, 'accountability in case of incidents such as student suicide' and 'parents uncooperative in their kid's mental health management (visit to hospital, etc.)' and, in terms of manpower, 'unclear R&R between school nurses and school counselors' and, more fundamentally, 'the lack of human resources.' The needs for teacher training programs related to student mental health were very high and the content required most was 'ways to manage stress of students and teachers themselves,' followed by 'interpersonal conflicts management & conservational skills,' and 'ways to manage student mental illness.' Conclusion: In conclusion, to increase the effectiveness of student mental health programs, we should move on from the current system which focuses only on early discovery and intervention to a more comprehensive system that includes preventive approaches, while having clearer R&R and more workforce dedicated to student mental health programs and attracting more parental cooperation and support.

  • Purpose: The study investigated the effect of adolescent health behavior on the prevalence of current allergic diseases. Methods: The subjects were 57,303 middle and high school youth. Data were analyzed using Rao-Scott χ2 test and complex sample logistic regression analysis. Results: While controlling the affect of the general characteristics of the subjects, health behaviors affecting the current prevalence of allergic diseases were smoking, drinking, physical activity, eating habits, drug abuse, and mental health. Smoking behaviors affecting the current prevalence of allergic diseases were lifetime smoking experience, smoking days, liquid e-cigarette lifetime smoking experience, number of liquid electronic cigarette smoking days, e-cigarette lifetime smoking experience, e-cigarette smoking days, amount of smoking, second-hand smoking and drinking behaviors were lifetime drinking, drinking days, the amount of drinking, and severe drinking. Variables such as physical activity exceeding 60 minutes days, intake of energy and sweet drinks, water intake, habitual drug use and mental health behavior such as stress perception, weekday sleep time, subjective sleep satisfaction, depression, suicidal thoughts/ plan/ attempts affect current allergic diseases (p<.001). Conclusion: The results showed that current allergic disease related health behaviors in Korean adolescents. Therefore, considering these factors, it may be helpful to facilitate a health promotion plan for prevention and management of such diseases and to promote evidence-based health practices at school.

  • Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is the second most common neoplasm of head and neck in Tunisia. The distribution is bimodal with a first period occurrence between 15 and 20 years old and a second peak at around 50 years of age. Undifferentiated carcinoma of nasopharynx type III (UCNT) is the predominant histological type (93.4%). Data of cancer registry of North Tunisia confirmed that it is an intermediate risk area for NPC with overall ASRs of 3.6 and 1.6/100,000 respectively in males and females. This study aimed to present the evolution of incidence rate of nasopharyngeal carcinoma over a period of 12 years (1994-2006). Data of cancer registry of North Tunisia (NTCR), covering half of the Tunisian population, were used to determine evolution of NPC incidence, calculated by 5 year periods. The estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) was used as an estimate of the trend. To best summarize the behavior or the data trend across years, we used a join-point regression program. Between 1994 and 2006, we observed negative annual average change of standardized incidence in men and women (-3.3%and -2.7%) also for the standardized incidences which showed a rather important decline (26.4% in males and 22.3% in females). The truncated age standardized incidence rate of NPC in adults aged of 30 years old and more (N= 1209) decreased by -0.4% per year from 1994 to 2006 over time in north Tunisia dropping from 6.09 to 4.14 person-years. However, the rate was relatively stable during this period among youths aged 0-29 years (N= 233) in both sexes. NPC demonstrated a favorable evolution from 1994-2006 probably due to a improvement in socioeconomic conditions.

  • Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate differences in psychopathology between offspring of parents with bipolar I disorder (BP-I) and those with bipolar II disorder (BP-II). Methods The sample included 201 offspring between 6 and 17 years of age who had at least one parent with BP-I or BP-II. The offspring were diagnostically evaluated using the Korean Kiddie-Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia-Present and Lifetime Version. Psychopathology and Clinical characteristics were evaluated, including lifetime DSM-5 diagnoses, depression, and childhood trauma. Lifetime DSM-5 diagnoses were also compared between schoolchildren aged 6 to 11 years and adolescents aged 12 to 17 years. Results In lifetime DSM-5 diagnoses, offspring of parents with BP-I had significantly increased risk of developing MDD and BP-I than those with BP-II. Regarding clinical characteristics, ADHD rating scale and childhood trauma scale were significantly higher in offspring of parents with BP-I than that in those with BP-II. Conclusion The present study supports that BP-I may be etiologically distinct from BP-II by a possible genetic liability. Our findings indicate that additional research related to bipolar offspring is needed to enhance understanding of differences between BP-I and BP-II.

  • Purpose: We compared the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of children and adolescents with functional abdominal pain disorders (FAPDs) and organic abdominal pain disorders (ORGDs). Methods: This was a single-center, cross-sectional, observational study. The PedsQL 4.0 generic cores scales parent proxy-report was administered to parents/caregivers of 130 and 56 pediatric patients with FAPDs and ORGDs respectively on their first visit. The self-reported pain intensity in the patients was assessed using a visual analog scale (VAS) and facial affective scale (FAS). Results: Irritable bowel syndrome was the most prevalent FAPDs, and the most prevalent ORGDs were reflux esophagitis (41.1%) and gastritis associated with Helicobacter pylori (21.4%). There was no difference in HRQOL among patients diagnosed with ORGDs and FAPDs (p>0.05). Patients with ORGDs and FAPDs had lower HRQOL Scale scores than healthy Brazilian and American children's references, with a high proportion of children at risk for impaired HRQOL (p<0.0001). There was no difference in the VAS and the FAS scores between the ORGDs and the FAPDs. FAPDs had a higher prevalence of girls' and couples' disagreement (p<0.02), although poor school performance (p<0.0007) and bullying (p<0.01) were higher in patients with ORGD. Conclusion: This study revealed that there was a difference in impaired HRQOL between patients with ORGDs and FAPDs. Thus, considering the high prevalence of chronic abdominal pain in children, a well-founded treatment plan is necessary for a multidisciplinary cognitive-behavioral Pain management program.
