Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the supportive care needs of parents of preterm children in South Korea using text data from a portal site. Methods: In total, 628 online newspaper articles and 1,966 social network service posts published between January 1 and December 31, 2019 were analyzed. The procedures in this study were conducted in the following order: keyword selection, data collection, morpheme analysis, keyword analysis, and topic modeling. Results: The term "yirundung-yi", which is a native Korean word referring to premature infants, was confirmed to be a useful term for parents. The following four topics were identified as the supportive care needs of parents of preterm children: 1) a vague fear of caring for a baby upon imminent neonatal intensive care unit discharge, 2) real-world difficulties encountered while caring for preterm children, 3) concerns about growth and development problems, and 4) anxiety about possible complications. Conclusion: Supportive care interventions for parents of preterm children should include general parenting methods for babies. A team composed of multidisciplinary experts must support the individual growth and development of preterm children and manage the complications of prematurity using highly accessible media.

목 적 : 부당경량아는 소아기 저신장의 주요한 이유 중의 하나이다. 유전적 요소는 부당경량아의 성장에 중요한 영향을 끼친다고 알려져 있다. 일반 소아와 유전적 요소사이의 관계에 대한 몇몇 보고가 있다. 하지만 부당경량아와 유전적 요소사이의 관계에 대한 보고는 많지 않다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 부당경량아의 성장과 부모중간키의 측정에 의한 유전적 요소 사이의 관계에 대해 연구하였다. 그리고 IGF-I, IGFBP-3 그리고 유전적 요소가 반영된 출생 후 성장과의 관계에 대해 연구하였다. 방 법 : 1989년부터 2002년까지 한림의대 강동성심병원에서 태어난 신생아로 출생체중이 10백분위수 미만인 부당 경량아 300명 중 추적 관찰이 가능했던 49명을 대상으로 하였다. 대상아의 부모중간키를 최종 평균값으로 하는 새로운 개인별 교정성장곡선을 구해 해당 연령의 표준편차를 적용하여 cHtSDS를 계산하였다. cHtSDS${\geq}0$ (n=35)인 1군, cHtSDS<0 (n=14)인 2군으로 나누고 두 군 간에 IGF-I과 IGFBP-3를 비교하였다. 결 과 : 1군과 2군의 HtSDS와 cHtSDS는 $0.28{\pm}1.05$, $-0.95{\pm}0.85$ (P=0.000), $0.78{\pm}0.93$, $-0.46{\pm}0.67$ (P=0.000)이었다. 또한 IGF-I SDS는 각각 $2.82{\pm}3.69$, $0.23{\pm}2.42$로 1군이 2군에 비하여 유의하게 더 높았다(P=0.012). 전체 cHtSDS ($0.42{\pm}1.03$)는 HtSDS ($-0.22{\pm}1.10$)보다 더 높았고(P=0.000), cHtSDS는 IGF-I SDS와 유의한 양의 상관관계를 가졌다(P=0.016). 결 론 : 본 연구 결과로 볼 때 cHtSDS는 HtSDS와 유의하게 차이가 났다. 현재의 일률적인 표준성장곡선에 의한 성장평가는 유전적 요소를 제대로 반영하지 못할 수 있다. 진정한 성장상태의 평가는 부모중간키 같은 유전적 요소를 반영한 개인별 교정성장곡선의 사용에 의해 가능할 것이다. 비록 cHtSDS를 계산하는 방법론상의 문제가 아직 있지만, cHtSDS는 부당경량아의 성장평가에 유용한 방법이 될 수 있다.

A serial cephalometric study was undertaken to define the growth of the soft tissue facial profile in Korean children. The sample was composed of 25 males and 15 females for whom yearly cephalometric records were taken from the ages of 6 to 13 years. From the tracings, points on skeletal and soft tissue profiles were located and recorded on magnetic tape utilizing a Calcomp Talos RP660 X-Y digitizer. Linear and angular measurements of soft tissues were made directly from tape in a Cyber 174-16 computer after cephalometric enlargement had been corrected. A statistical evaluation was made of the data and the average profile diagrams in male and female were described by a Calcomp 960 pen plotter. On the basis of the findings of this study, the following trends were established. 1. The most prominent growth in soft tissue facial profile thickness was the nose and the least was the forehead. 2. The general growth direction of the soft facial tissue to the cranium described the downward and forward. 3. The degree of soft tissue facial convexity was decidely more than that exhibited earlier in life even though the soft tissue chin had protruded to the cranium. 4. The measurements indicated a general tendency for males to have larger nose and more convex and long soft tissue facial profile than did females. 5. Males showed significantly more growth than females in base of the upper lip and height of the upper anterior facial profile. 6. There was a difference between males and females in the rates of soft tissue facial profile growth. 7. Korean children showed less convex in the soft tissue profile convexity than did American children.

Objectives The purpose of this study is to analyze factors that enhance growth effect after the administration of Boyangsungjang-Tang (補陽成長湯) to children and adolescents. Methods This clinical study has been carried out with 112 children and adolescents, who visited one University Oriental Medicine Hospital Pediatric department, from January 2009 to December 2010. They were treated on height-growth with Boyangsungjang-Tang (補陽成長湯). We used modified-intend to treat analysis to examine children who had their height and weight records six months after the treatment. We use PASW Statistics 18.0 to analyze what factors (Height percentile, Weight percentile, Age, Birth weight, Frequency of taking Medicine, Period of Treatment) enhanced the growth by using t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation analysis. Results The mean value of the height percentile were significantly increased, $2.83{\pm}10.04$ ($36.61{\pm}27.02$ to $39.44{\pm}26.89$, P=0.004). The height percentile difference has significantly correlated with weight percentile (P<0.001) and height percentile (P<0.05). Weight less than 50 percentile (P<0.05), and treatment period more than 15 months (P<0.05) had significant impact on the height percentile differences. Conclusions If we have treated more than 15 months of Boyangsungjang-Tang (補陽成長湯) to children and adolescents whose weight are less than 50 percentile, we would have expected their height percentile to increase as $5.72{\pm}10.64$.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to examine relationships between bone age and body composition to make efficient clinical reviews on children's growth. Methods : 157 of children in age of 3 years to 16 years old were participated in this study(88 of boys and 69 of girls). They visited the department of pediatrics, OO university oriental hospital and were measured their body composition and bone age. Results : 1. An age and bone age, height, weight, and body mass index were positively correlated, and also a bone age and height, weight, and body mass index were positively correlated. 2. The level of soft lean mass, body fat mass, and MPH were increased in boys in higher height percentile. Children's predicted adult height was higher in children in higher height percentile. 3. The level of body fat mass was increased as weight percentile increased. Bone age, MPH was increased as weight percentile increased, especially in case of boys. In girl's case, the level of soft lean mass, their predicted adult height, the difference between children's bone age and their actual age was increased as weight percentile increased. Conclusions : Measuring bone age and body composition is the effective way to estimate children's growth and development in future.
