Purpose : The objective of this study was to determine the major factors influencing the onset of diabetes and prediabetes and for collection of the basic data required to reduce the prevalence of diabetes and plan for administration of an effective health care system. By classifying the level of blood sugar management according to three categories: normal, prediabetes, and diabetes diagnosis, and determining the causes of diabetes in consideration of various variables, we will conduct an analysis of the main factors to be addressed for effective management of blood sugar and for preparation of basic data for use in early management. Methods : In this study, an analysis of raw data from the 8th National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey collected over a period of three years from 2019 to 2021, including 8,110 subjects in 2019, 7,359 subjects in 2020, and 7,090 subjects in 2021 was performed. A total of 22,559 subjects were aged 19 years or older, and 15,821 subjects were classified as subjects for inclusion in the final analysis. In the analysis, categorical variables were tested for difference, analysis of continuous variables using regression was performed, and analysis of influencing factors was performed using multinomial logistic analysis. Result : Significant factors related to the onset of diabetes and prediabetes included age (p<.001), marital status (p<.001), occupation (p<.001), hypertension (p<.001), dyslipidemia (p<.001), cardiovascular disease (p=.008), alcohol (p=.030) smoking (p=.005), systolic blood pressure (p<.001), diastolic blood pressure (p<.001), body mass index (p<.001) and waist circumference (p=.037), blood triglycerides (p<.001), and blood cholesterol (p<.001). Conclusion : Diabetes, a complex disease affected by a variety of diseases, requires active management from the prediabetes stage, and providing an appropriate level of medical information and services to elderly individuals without family support is considered a long-term health care system requirement in Korean society where the demographic structure is changing. In particular, determining the causes of prediabetes and development of a preventive approach to administering the health care system will be important for efficient management of diabetic patients.

People with higher genetic predisposition to obesity are more susceptible to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and healthy plant-based foods may be associated with reduced risks of obesity and other metabolic markers. We investigated whether healthy plant-foods-rich dietary patterns might have inverse associations with cardiometabolic risk factors in participants at genetically elevated risk of obesity. For this cross-sectional study, 377 obese and overweight women were chosen from health centers in Tehran, Iran. We calculated a healthy plant-based diet index (h-PDI) in which healthy plant foods received positive scores, and unhealthy plant and animal foods received reversed scores. A genetic risk score (GRS) was developed based on 3 polymorphisms. The interaction between GRS and h-PDI on cardiometabolic traits was analyzed using a generalized linear model (GLM). We found significant interactions between GRS and h-PDI on body mass index (BMI) (p = 0.02), body fat mass (p = 0.04), and waist circumference (p = 0.056). There were significant gene-diet interactions for healthful plant-derived diets and BMI-GRS on high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (p = 0.03), aspartate aminotransferase (p = 0.04), alanine transaminase (p = 0.05), insulin (p = 0.04), and plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (p = 0.002). Adherence to h-PDI was more strongly related to decreased levels of the aforementioned markers among participants in the second or top tertile of GRS than those with low GRS. These results highlight that following a plant-based dietary pattern considering genetics appears to be a protective factor against the risks of cardiometabolic abnormalities.

본 연구는 국민건강영양조사 2015년부터 2018년도 자료를 활용하여 우리나라 만 19세 이상 성인의 KHEI와 복부비만의 관련성 및 hs-CRP의 매개 효과를 분석한 연구이다. 한국 성인 남성의 경우 허리둘레 90 cm 이상, 여성은 허리둘레 85 cm 이상인 경우에 복부비만군으로 정의하였다. 남성에서 복부비만군은 2,587명, 정상군은 5,007명이였고 여성의 복부비만군은 2,869명, 정상군은 7,307명이였다. KHEI, hs-CRP, 복부비만의 연관성 분석에서는 모든 공변량을 보정하였을 때 남성의 KHEI는 복부비만과 유의한 연관이 없었지만, hs-CRP와 음의 연관성이 있었다. 여성의 경우, 복부비만과 hs-CRP 모두 음의 연관성이 관찰되었다. 또한, 남성과 여성에서 hs-CRP 위험군 (> 1.0 mg/L) 이 hs-CRP 정상군 (≤ 1.0 mg/L)보다 복부비만 유병률이 유의하게 높았다. Bootstrapping을 이용한 매개효과 분석에서는 KHEI와 복부비만 관계에서 hs-CRP가 매개 효과를 가지는 것으로 나타났으며 공변량을 단계적으로 보정하였을때 증가하는 양상이 나타났다. 결론적으로, 본 연구 결과는 균형잡힌 식생활를 통한 높은 식사의 질이 hs-CRP에 영향을 미쳐 복부비만 예방에 중요한 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 시사한다.

Objectives: This study aims to compare changes in physical factors, health behaviors, eating habits, and nutritional intake among Korean male and female adults over a period of three years (2019-2021) before and after the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Methods: This study utilized raw data from the 8th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2019-2021). The participants in this study included 6,235 individuals in 2019, 5,865 individuals in 2020, and 5,635 individuals in 2021. Individuals whose daily energy intake was less than 500 kcal or exceeded 5,000 kcal were excluded from the study. Results: In comparison to 2019, overweight/obesity rates, weight, waist circumference, weekend sleep hours, and resistance exercise days/week increased in both male and female during the COVID-19 pandemic. Regarding eating habits, the proportions of people skipping breakfast, not eating out, consuming health supplements, and recognizing nutritional labels increased in 2020 and 2021, whereas the rate of skipping dinner decreased. Total energy intake has continued to decrease for the two years since 2019. A comparison of nutrient intake per 1,000 kcal before and after the outbreak of COVID-19 revealed that intake of nutrients, including protein, phosphorus, iron, vitamin A, riboflavin, and niacin increased, while folic acid intake decreased. In male, calcium, phosphorus, riboflavin, and niacin intakes increased, whereas iron, vitamin C, and folic acid intakes decreased. In female, phosphorus, iron, vitamin A, and riboflavin intake increased significantly, while protein and niacin intake decreased significantly. Conclusions: After COVID-19, the obesity rate, breakfast skipping rate, health supplement intake, and nutritional label use increased, while the frequency of eating out, dinner skipping rate, and total energy intake decreased. These environmental changes and social factors highlight the need for nutritional education and management to ensure proper nutritional intake and reduce obesity rates in the post-COVID-19 era.

Background and Purpose: Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) refers to the self-perception of cognitive decline with normal performance on objective neuropsychological tests. SCD, which is the first help-seeking stage and the last stage before the clinical disease stage, can be considered to be the most appropriate time for prevention and treatment. This study aimed to compare characteristics between the amyloid positive and amyloid negative groups of SCD patients. Methods: A cohort study to identify predictors for the clinical progression to mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or dementia from subjective cognitive decline (CoSCo) study is a multicenter, prospective observational study conducted in the Republic of Korea. In total, 120 people aged 60 years or above who presented with a complaint of persistent cognitive decline were selected, and various risk factors were measured among these participants. Continuous variables were analyzed using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test, and categorical variables were analyzed using the χ² test or Fisher's exact test. Logistic regression models were used to assess the predictors of amyloid positivity. Results: The multivariate logistic regression model indicated that amyloid positivity on PET was related to a lack of hypertension, atrophy of the left temporal lateral and entorhinal cortex, low body mass index, low waist circumference, less body and visceral fat, fast gait speed, and the presence of the apolipoprotein E ε4 allele in amnestic SCD patients. Conclusions: The CoSCo study is still in progress, and the authors aim to identify the risk factors that are related to the progression of MCI or dementia in amnestic SCD patients through a two-year follow-up longitudinal study.

The writers have conducted the investigation to assess the nutritional status of young rural Korean children aged from 0 to 4 years old in August 1971. The survey areas were Kaejong-myon. Daeya-myon, Okku-gun, Jeonra-bukdo, Korea. These survey areas were typical agricultural plain areas. The total numbers of children examined were 2,706 comprising 1,394 male and 1,312 female. The weight, height, and chest circumference of children were measured and means and standard deviations. were calculated for each measurement. In addition, the nutritional status of each child was classified by the four levels of malnutrition and the Gomez classification, The examination of red blood cell count, haematocrit value, and intestinal parasite infection were carried out at the same time. In general, recent work tend to suggest that environmental influences, especially nutrition, are of great importance than genetic background or other biological factors for physical growth and development. Certainly the physical dimensions of the body are much influenced by nutrition, particularly in the rapidly growing period of early childhood. Selected body measurements can therefore give valuable information concerning protein-calory malnutrition. Growth can also be affected by bacterial, viral, and parasitic infection. For the field workers in a developing country, therefore, nutritional anthropometry appears to be of greatest value in the assessment of growth failure and undernutrition, principally from lack of protein and calories. In order to compare and evaluate the data obtained, the optimal data of growth from the off-spring of the true well-fed, medically and socially protected are needed. So-called 'Standards' that have been compiled for preschool children in Korea, however, are based on measurement of children from middle or lower socio-economic groups, who are, in fact, usually undernourished from six months of age onwards and continuously exposed to a succession of infective and parasitic diseases. So that, the Harvard Standards which is one of the international reference standards was used as the reference standards in this study. Findings of the survey were as follows: A. Anthropometric data: 1) Comparing the mean values for body weight obtained with the Korean standard weight of the same age, the rural Korean children were slightly haevier than the Korean standard values in both sexes. Comparing with the Japanese children values, the rural Korean children were slightly haevier in male and in the infant period of female but lighter in female of the period of 1 to 4 years old than Japanese children. 2) Comparing the mean values for height obtained with the Korean standard height of the same age, the rural Korean children were taller than the Korean standard values except the second half of infatn period in both sexes. Comparing with the Japanese children, the rural Korean children were slightly smaller than Japanese children except the first half of infant peroid in both sexes. 3) Mear values of chest circumference of rural Korean children obtained were less than the Korean standard values of the same ages in both sexes. B. Prevalence of Protein-Calory Malnutrition: Children examined were devided into two groups, i. e., infant(up to the first birthday) and toddler (1 to 4 fears old). 1) Percentages of four levels of malnutrition: a) When the nutrtional status of each child was classified (1) by body weight value, the percentages for male and female of children attained standard growth were 52.8%(infant 83.3%, toddler 44.4%) and 39.7% (infant 74.5%. toddler 30.5%), the first level of malnutrition were 31.9%(infant 13.7%, toddler 36.9%) and 31.7%(infant 15.3%, toddler 36,0%), the second level of malnutrition were 12.3%(infant 1.7%, toddler 15.3%) and 23.3% (infant 7.7%, fodder 27.5%), the third level of malnutrition were 2.7%(infant 0.7%, toddler 3.2%) and 4.6%(infant 1.8%, toddler 5.3%) the fourth level of malnutrition were 0.3% (infant 0.7%, toddler 0.2%) and 0.7% (0.7% for infant and toddler) respectively.

(3) by body weight in relation to height, the percentages for male and female of children attained standard growth were 87.9% (infant 77.6%, toddler 87.9%) and 78.2% (infant 77.4%, toddler 78.2%), the first level of malnutrition were 12.2% (infant 18.4%, toddler 10.6%) and 18.2% (infant 17.9%, toddler 18.3%), the second level of malnutrition were 1.9%(infant 3.3%, toddler 1.5%) and 3.0%(infant 3.3%, toddler 2.9%), the third level of malnutrition were 0.1%(infant 0%. toddler 0.1%) and 0.5% (infant 0%, toddler 0.6%), the fourth level of malnutrition were 0.1%(infant 0.7%, toddler 0%) and 0.3% (infant 1.5%, toddler 0%) respectively. b) When the nutritional status of each child according to the mother's age at perturition, i. e., young aged mother (up to 30 years old), middle aged mother (31 to 40 years old) and old aged mother (41 years or above) was classified (1) by body weight, among infants and toddlers, at each year of age, with increasing the mother's age, there was an increase in percentage of subjects underweight. This tendency of increasing percentage of underweight was more significant in the infant period than the toddler period. (2) by height value, no significant differences between each mother's age group were found. c) When the nutritional status of each child according to the birth rank, i. e., lower birth rank (first to third) and higher birth rank (fourth or above) was classified (1) by weight value, children of higher birth rank were slightly more often underweight than those of lower birth rank, but not significant. (2) by height value, no differences were found between children of lower and higher birth rank. 2) Gomez Classification: When the nutritional status of each child was classified a) by body weight value, the percentages for male and female of children. attained standard growth were 53.1% (infant 82.6%, toddler 44.9%) and 39.2% (infant 73.4%, toddler 30.1%), the first degree of malnutrition were 39.4% (infant 14.7%, toddler 46.2%) and 47.1% (infant 21.9%, toddler 53.8%), the second degree of malnutrition were 7.3%(infant 2.3%, toddler 8.6%) and 12.9% (infant 4.0%, toddler 15.2%). and the third degree of malnutrition were 0.2%.

C. Results of clinical laboratory examination: 1) Red blood cells: The ranges of mean red blood cell counts for male and female were $3,538,000/mm^3\;to\;4,403,000/mm^3\;and\;3,576,000/mm^3\;to\;4,483,000/mm^3$ respectively. The lowest red cell counts were seen at the age of 0-3 months for male and 1-2 months for female. 2) Haematocrit value : The ranges of haematocrit value of male and female were 35.1% to 38.8% and 34.7% to 38.8% respectively.

목 적 : 성인의 심혈관질환은 태아발달 동안이나 이른 어린이 시기부터 시작된다는 태아프로그래밍 개념과 출생시 작게 태어난 경우에 성인기에 혈압이 상승된다는 연구들을 고려하여 볼 때, 출생시기부터의 혈압 변화에 대한 연구가 필요함을 느꼈다. 본 연구에서는 신생아의 여러 자궁내 발육 지표와 신생아의 혈압 관련성에 대해 살펴보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 이화여자대학교 목동병원에 내원한 임산부 중 연구참여에 동의한 산모를 대상으로 코호트를 구축하고 이들의 127명의 출생아에 대한 의무기록에 근거하여 자료를 추적, 수집하였고, 생후 24시간 이내에 신생아의 혈압을 측정하였다. 결 과 : 신생아 수축기 혈압과 태내 성장지표는 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였다; 출생체중(r=0.4), 머리둘레(r=0.4), 출생신장(r=0.3). 그러나 체중대비 머리둘레 비는 신생아 혈압과 유의한 음의 상관관계를 보였다(r=-0.4). 아기의 성과 엄마의 혈압수준, 재태연령을 보정한 상태에서도 신생아 수축기 혈압은 태내 성장지표와 연관성을 보였다. 수축기 혈압은 출생체중이 가장 높은 군에서(90 백분위수 이상) 낮은 군과 비교하여(10 백분위수 미만) 7 mmHg 높았다, 한편 출생체중 대비 머리둘레의 비가 가장 높은 군(90 백분위수 이상)에서 낮은 군(10 백분위수 미만)에 비해 17 mmHg 낮게 나타났다. 결 론 : 우리 연구 결과 자궁내 성장 지연이 신생아의 혈압을 높이는데 영향을 미치는 것을 관찰할 수 없었다. 혈압 프로그래밍은 출생 이후에 성장기간에 시작되는 것으로 생각된다. 자궁내 성장지연으로 인해 혈압이 상승하는 주요 시작 지점이 언제인지 알아보기 위해서 출생 이후부터 따라잡기 성장과 함께 아동기시기 혈압 변화에 대한 지속적인 연구가 필요하다.

본 연구는 식이섬유인 돼지감자의 이눌린, 연잎분말과 허브로 제조한 다이어트 제제가 체중, 체지방 등에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위하여 실시하였다. 실험에 참가하기 위한 대상자의 선정은 체질량지수(BMI) $25kg/m^2$ 이상, 체지방률 25% 이상, 복부비만률 0.85로 하였다. 본 연구는 20세 이상의 남녀 대학생 24명으로 각 12명씩 대조군과 다이어트군으로 나눈 후 30 일간 실시하였다. 식사섭취량은 식사기록법(diet record method)으로 조사하여 CAN program에 입력한 후 영양소 섭취량을 분석하였다. 실험 전 후의 영양소 섭취량을 비교한 결과 1주의 영양소 섭취량과 4주째의 영양소 섭취량이 거의 유사하게 나타났으며, 대조군과 다이어트군 모두에서 4주째 열량 섭취량이 다소 감소하였지만 유의적으로 큰 차이는 아니었다. 또한 실험 결과 다이어트군은 대조군에 비해 체중이 약 2.5 kg 감량되었으며 통계적으로 유의적인 차이를 보였다. 그 외의 체지방량, 근육량, 복부 비만율, 비만도, 허리둘레, 엉덩이둘레 모두 실험 기간 중 유의적인 감소를 보였으나, 체지방량과 근육량은 함께 감소하였으므로 체지방률에는 큰 변화가 없었다. 혈압은 대조군과 다이어트군에서 모두 정상의 범위를 나타내었다. 위의 결과를 종합해 볼 때 본 연구의 돼지감자의 이눌린, 연잎분말, 허브의 쐐기풀 분말 및 유칼립투스 잎의 분말의 다이어트 제제가 체중과 체지방 및 비만관련 신체지표를 유의하게 감소시켰음을 알 수 있었으며, 운동요법을 병행할 경우 비정상적인 지방 축적으로 인한 비만을 보다 효과적으로 예방하고 개선할 수 있을 것으로 생각되었다.
