BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to analyze specific foods influencing absolute nutrient intake and between-person variations of nutrient intake among Korean preschoolers. SUBJECTS/METHODS: This study included 2,766 participants aged 1-5 years in the 2009-2013 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys. Dietary data were obtained from a 24-h dietary recall method. Major food sources of absolute nutrient intake were evaluated based on percent contribution of each food. To assess the contribution of specific foods to between-person variations in nutrient intake, stepwise multiple regressions were performed and cumulative $R^2$ was used. RESULTS: White rice and milk were main food sources of energy, protein, carbohydrate, phosphorus, iron, potassium, thiamin, riboflavin, and niacin. The percentage of fat contributed by milk was 21.3% which was the highest, followed by pork, soybean oil, and egg. White rice accounted for 25% and 40% of total variability in total energy and carbohydrate intakes, respectively. About 39% of variation in calcium intake was explained by milk while 40% of variation in phosphorous intake was explained by cheese. The top 10 foods contributing to between-person variations in nutrient intakes were similar with food items that mainly contributed to absolute nutrient intakes. The number of foods explaining 90% of absolute amounts of nutrient intakes varied from 28 for vitamin A to 80 for iron. CONCLUSIONS: This study identified specific foods that contributed to absolute nutrient intakes and between-person variations in nutrient intakes among Korean preschoolers. Our findings can be used to develop dietary assessment tools and establish food-based dietary guidelines for young children.

본 연구는 서해 중부 연안에 출현하는 쥐노래미 (Hexagrammos otakii)의 위내용물 분석을 통하여, 위내용물 조성과 성장 및 계절별 식성변화를 분석하였다. 쥐노래미의 전장 (total length, TL)은 5.6 cm에서 32.4 cm의 범위였다. 쥐노래미는 단각류 (amphipods), 새우류 (carid shrimps), 어류 (teleosts)를 주로 섭식하였고, 그 외 다양한 저서 갑각류와 무척추동물을 소량 섭식하였다. 새우류와 어류는 미성어 (immature)와 성어 (mature)의 위내용물에서 공통적으로 우점하였다. 단각류와 갯지렁이류 (polychaetes)는 그 다음으로 우점하였는데, 단각류는 작은 크기의 어류에서, 갯지렁이류는 큰 크기의 어류에서 그 비율이 더 높았다. DISTLM (distance-based linear modelling) 결과, 쥐노래미의 위내용물은 전장, 계절, 수온에 따라 유의하게 변하였지만, 성숙도와는 관련이 없었다.

Seasonal variations of nutrient intake ware evaluated through a 3-day dietary records in 196 Korean adolescents(86 males, 108 females) aged 13 - 15 years and living in urban and rural areas of Chungnam. The seasonal differences of nutrient intake were tested by repealed measure ANOVA. Comparing nutrient intakes among flour seasons using repealed measure ANOVA, mean values of daily intakes were higher in winter and autumn for most nutrients, and were the lowest in summer in the urban areas and in spring in rural areas. Girls recieved the largest amount of nutrients, except Ca and vitamin $B_12$, in winter and the lowest amount in summer, while in boys significant differences were not observed among the four seasons for meet nutrients, except fats, Mg, and vitamin E. Interestingly, the seasonal differences for many nutrients were more evident in rural areas than in urban areas. Vitamin A intake in urban areas was higher in winter and spring, while in rural oreas, in summer. Mean values of daily intakes as a percent of the RDA throughout the year in boys and girls ware 82.2% and 84.2% for energy and 88.9% and 82.7% for protein, respectively. Ca and vitamin A intakes were as low as 32.4% and 24.2% of the RDA in boys and 39.7% and 30.6% in girls. Intakes of Fe, Zn, folic acid and vitamin B$_{12}$ ranged from 40 - 60% of the RDA. The nutrients which showed the largest seasonal difference in the percent of RDA were vitamin E in boys and vitamin C, vitamin E, and Fe in girls. The index of nutritional quality(INQ) for Fe was significantly lower in autumn in both genders. The INQ for vitamin C in girls of both areas was much higher in winter. Annual mean adequacy ratio(MAR), an index of overall nutritional quality, ranged from 0.57 - 0.69, which was higher in winter than in other seasons. Conclusively, nutrient intakes of Korean adolescents showed seasonal variations, particularly in girls and in rural area. Thus, seasonal variations should be considered in the assessing nutritional status, particularly ill the rural areas of Korea.a.

The purpose of this study is to develop a sophisticated web-based artificial intelligence chatbot system designed to provide personalized dietary service for diabetic patients. According to a 2022 study, the prevalence of diabetes among individuals over 30 years old was 15.6% in 2020, identifying it as a significant societal issue with an increasing patient population. This study uses generative AI algorithms to tailor dietary recommendations for the elderly and various social classes, contributing to the maintenance of healthy eating habits and disease prevention. Through meticulous fine-tuning, the learning loss of the AI model was significantly reduced, nearing zero, demonstrating the chatbot's potential to offer precise dietary suggestions based on calorie intake and seasonal variations. As this technology adapts to diverse health conditions, ongoing research is crucial to enhance the accessibility of dietary information for the elderly, thereby promoting healthy eating practices and supporting disease prevention.

This study examined within-and between-individual variation in nutrient intakes in order to estimate the degrees of precison in dietary assessment among 59 female volunteers aged 21-23 years. Self-recorded 7-day dietary recalls and records were collected by during a 3 month period. Between the recall and record methods, there were little difference of within-and between-individual variations. Within-to-between individual variation ratios were > 2.0 for most of the nutrients examined, and were higher for niacin, vitamin A and C (>2.5) in the recals and for calcium, iron, vitamin A and C(>3.0) in the records. With 7-day dietary data, observed nutrient intakes were estimated to within 26-107% of the subjects' true(usual) intakes, among those vitamin C and energy showed the highest and lowest values, respectively. Correlation coefficients between observed and true nutrient intakes were 0.73-0.81 for the recalls and 0.68-0.77 for the records. In order to estimate with 20% precision, 12-13 days of dietary study were required for energy, 46 for calcium, 71-72 for vitamin A, and 199-200 for vitamin C. Attenuation factor ranged 0.73-0.81 for the recalls and 0.68-0.77 for the records. This study implies that commonly used 1 or 3 day dietary studies may not be appropriate for assessing individuals' nutrient intakes. Further research focusing on the methodological issues in the assessment of Korean diet are needed for between understanding of the relationship between diet and health in Koreans.

This study was designed to study sources of variability(subjects, day by day, season, day of week, sequence, number of repeated days, compliance etc.) in multiple 24-hour dietary recall method. Dietary intakes of college women in Seoul were obtained using 24-hour dietary recalls, consecutive 7 days, 4 times for 1 year. The result of this study shows that 1) the reproducibility of multiple 24-hour recalls is low(intraclass correlation coefficient<0.3), 2) the intraindividual variations of all nutrients are more than 80%, 3) the major components of variation are interindividual vriability and intraindividual variability(within person variability and methodologic error). There were small but statistically significant season and compliance effects. 4) the ratio within-person varation to between-person variation for absolute and transformed nutrient intakes except some nutrients such as vitamin A, vitamin C, energy from protein and fat etc, was less than 1.7 the minimum numbers of days needed in 24-hour dietary recalls to estimate usual intake for this group were 1 to 21 days. And the numbers of days needed to get the usual intake of an individual varied among individuals and within individuals for different nutrients, ranged from 1 days for log carbohydrate(% energy) to 470 days for Na. 6) There were greater than 0.7 correlation coefficients between the average nutrient intakes of 12 days and intakes of 28 days. Therefore, it was desirable to take the 24-hour recall more than 12 times, repeating 3 days every season.

This study examined within- and between-person variation in nutrient intakes in order to estimate the degree of precision in dietary assessment among 37 males and 46females whose mean age was 70.4 years old. To collect dietary data, each subject was interviewed 5 or 6 times using a 24-hour recall method during a 3 month period. Within- person variation ranged from 23.5% to 101.2%. Lower values of within-person variation were observed in energy, carbohydrated, protein and phosphorous while higher value was observed in vitamin A. Between person variations of nutrient intakes ranged 12.6-23.5% in most nutrients. With 1 day dietary data, observed nutrient intakes were estimated to within 6-25% of the group's usual9true) intakes and 52-198% of the individuals' usual intakes. The values of these maximum percentage deviations became smaller when the number of dietary recalls increased. The results of this study suggest that the Korean elderly subjects appear to have a slightly less diverse diet compared to young Korean women. Within persons, intakes of nutrients largely from animal sources were more variable for the Korean elderly than for their counterparts in Western countries. This study also implies that commonly used 1 day dietary study may be appropriate for assessing group means of nutrient intakes, but clearly not appropriate for assessing individual's nutrient intakes.

Asian Americans is a minority population contributing approximately 4% to the total population of the United States, however it is one of the fastest growing populations. Although Asian Americans as a group have socioeconomic profiles that are similar to white Americans, significant variations exists within and across Asian ethnic groups. The top ten leading causes of death for Asian Americans includes cancer, heart diseases, stroke, unintentional injuries, diabetes, influenza and pneumonia, chronic lower respiratory disease, suicide, nephritis, and septicemia. The prevalence of obesity is lower among Asian Americans, however this should be taken with considerations specific to Asians. High salt and low calcium consumption seem to be dietary risk factors for Asian Americans, although dietary patterns are changing with acculturation. Factors affecting dietary patterns are discussed in this paper. A proactive nutrition education approach for Asian Americans should be promoting maintaining 'healthy' aspects of ethnic diets and adopting 'healthy' American diets. Collaboration with nutrition educators in Asian countries would be helpful to overcome limited resources available for researching and developing nutrition education messages and materials for Asian Americans.
