Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical and radiographic features of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) osteoarthritis (OA) between adolescents and middle-old aged patients. Methods: The subjects were chosen among the patients who presented to the Department of Oral Medicine of Pusan National University Hospital and were diagnosed with TMJ OA by clinical exam, X-ray and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) from 2010 to 2011. We investigated 93 adolescent patients (12-19 years) and 53 middle-old aged (>45 years) patients who observed the erosive bony changes in TMJ. CBCT scans were retaken at intervals at an average of 8 months. Results: The adolescent patients showed unilateral degenerative changes more often, and the middle-old aged patients showed degenerative changes more frequently on both sides. The transition of bone changes to the improved group occurred most commonly in both the adolescent and middle-old aged patients. The adolescent patients were more likely to improve than middle-old aged patients. In the adolescent patients, loss of erosion and subjective symptoms occurred in shorter periods than in the middle-old aged patients. In the adolescent patients, the transition of erosion was distributed into proliferative, normal, and shortening in order. In the middle-old aged patients, the transition of erosion was distributed into shortening, proliferative, and normal in order. Conclusions: The clinical and radiographic features of TMJ OA are a significantly different between the adolescent and middle-old aged patients. Moreover, the difference by age of the adaptive and regenerative capacity of TMJ affects the prognosis of TMJ OA and adolescent patients have a better prognosis after treatment.

In order to investigate the ramyeon intake patterns, food value recognition, and their effects on blood pressure and blood lipid levels, a total of 385 male students aged 13- 15 years living in rural area were sampled randomly, and they were surveyed using questionnaire. Blood pressure and fasting serum lipids levels of 123 subjects selected among the total were determined. Of the total subjects 80.3％ either liked or liked very much ramyeon and 42.2％ of them were eating ramyeon from 1 to 2 times a week,21.1％ 5-6 times a week, while 11.7％ more than once a day, and 13.1％ less than once a month. They took ramyeon from one (56.8％) to two (25.4％) packs each time. Two-third of subjects consumed entire ramyeon soup or more than half of it. Mostly they added egg or onion to ramyeon and took along with kimchi, cooked rice, danmuji, or dried laver. The food value recognition score about ramyeon was 41.33 out of 100 full grade. Comparing to underweight or normal weight subjects, overweight students tended to take ramyeon more frequently when playing with friends and tended to consume less soup of ramyeon. There was a significant negative correlation between ramyeon intake frequencies and HDL-cholesterol levels (r = -.223 p < .05). Moreover, among the normal body weight students (n = 72) adjusted with relative weight, ramyeon intake frequencies showed not only a significant negative correlation with HDL-cholesterol level (r = -.244 p < .05), but also significant positive correlations with atherogenic index (r : .249 p < .05) and systolic blood pressure (r : .259 p < .05) . These results suggested that frequent intake of ramyeon with limited sidedishes as a whole meal might have negative influences on blood pressure and serum lipid levels. Nutrition education is needed to have correct food value recognition and proper consumption of ramyeon along with the balanced diet. (Korean J Community Nutrition 8(4) : 485-494, 2003)

Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of neurofeedback training for reducing stress and enhancing self-regulation in late adolescence to identify the possibility of use for nursing intervention. Methods: A nonequivalent control group pre-post quasi-experimental design was used. Participants were 78 late adolescents assigned to the experimental group (n=39) that received the neurofeedback training and the control group (n=39). Data were collected on heart rate variability (HRV) and skin conductance level (SCL) to assess stress-biomarker response. The questionnaire contained 164 items from: Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS), Symptom Checklist-90-Revised (SCL-90-R) and Self-regulatory Ability scale. The neurofeedback training was based on the general adaptation syndrome and body-mind medicine. The intervention was conducted in a total of 10 sessions for 30 minutes per session with high-beta, theta and sensory motor rhythm training on scalp at central zero. Results: There were significant difference in standard deviation of normal to normal interval (p=.036) in HRV and SCL (p=.029) of stress-biomarker response between the two groups. Negative affect (p=.036) in PANAS and obsessive compulsive (p=.023) and depression (p<.001) in SCL-90-R were statistically significant. Self-regulation mode (p=.004) in self-regulation ability scale showed a significant difference between the two groups. Conclusion: The results indicated that the neurofeedback training is effective in stress-biomarkers, psychoemotional stress response and self-regulation. Therefore, neurofeedback training using neuroscientific approach based on brain-mind-body model can be used as an effective nursing intervention for late adolescents in clinics and communities for effective stress responses.

The purpose of this study was to investigate dietary behavior and nutritional knowledge related to sodium intake in high school students. A questionnaire survey was conducted in 400 high school students (200 boys) in Incheon, Korea. Survey data were analyzed according to gender and degree of obesity. The distribution of the degree of obesity was the highest in 231 normal weight individuals (57.8%), followed by 89 underweight (22.3%), 41 overweight (10.3%), and 39 obese (9.8%). The sodium-related undesirable dietary behavior score was 2.9 points out of 5 points. The detailed dietary behavior scores of 'I eat kimchi when I eat instant noodles or noodles' and 'I like dried fish with salt' were significantly higher in boys than in girls (p<0.05). It was found that boys consumed more frequently high sodium foods, such as pizza, hamburger, and hotdog than girls. According to the degree of obesity, the underweight group consumed more kimchi fried rice and potato chips frequently than the other groups (p<0.05). Preference for salty taste was not significantly different among the groups by gender and degree of obesity. Sodium-related nutritional knowledge score was 5.3 points out of 10 and which was significantly higher in girls or normal weight group than in boys or obesity group. These results suggest that nutritional education on sodium intake is needed because the nutritional knowledge of adolescents is relatively low. Moreover, intensive nutritional guidance is required, especially in boys or adolescents with undesirable degree of obesity.

본 연구는 우리나라 청소년의 BMI와 주관적 체형인지에 따른 체중조절행동을 알아보고자 '2010년 청소년건강행태온라인 조사' 자료를 이용하여 중1~고3 학생 73,238명을 대상으로 하였다. SPSS WIN 18.0을 사용하여 빈도와 백분율, 교차분석과 이분형 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시하였으며, 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 청소년들이 주관적으로 인지한 체형은 '보통이다'와 '약간 살찐 편이다'가 높게 나타났지만, 실제 BMI 측정결과 '저체중'이 가장 높고, 그 다음 '정상체중'으로 나타났다. 둘째, 남학생보다 여학생이 비만하지 않아도 비만하다고 평가하는 비율이 높았다. 셋째, 체중을 줄이기 위한 노력은 여학생이, 늘이기 위한 노력은 남학생의 비율이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이를 통해 볼 때 대부분의 학생들이 실제적인 체형에 비하여 자신의 주관적 체형 인지를 왜곡하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 주관적인 체형인지 정도와는 다르게 저체중군에서는 체중을 늘리기 위한 노력보다 줄이기 위한 노력을 더 하였으며, 비만군보다 과체중군이 근소한 차이로 체중을 줄이기 위한 노력을 더 하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 BMI 지수에 대한 체중조절 여부가 높아질수록 체중조절을 수행할 확률이 높게 나타났다. 이를 종합해보면, 주관적 체형 인지가 체중조절행동으로 직접 연결되었고, 불필요한 체중감량시도나 부적절한 체중조절방법 사용을 줄이기 위하여 체형에 대한 올바른 인지가 강조되어야 하며, 이를 위한 교육적 개입이 요구된다.

The maximum breathing capacity (MBC) and the maximum mid-expiratory flow rate (MMF) are widely used in evaluation of the ventilatory function, among various parameters of pulmonary function. The MBC volume is the amount of gas which can be exchanged per unit time during maximal voluntary hyperventilation. Performance of this test, unlike that of single breath maneuvers, is affected by the integrity of the respiratory bellows as a whole including such factors are respiratory muscle blood supply, fatigue, and progressive trapping of air. Because of this, the MBC and its relation to ventilatory requirement correlates more closely with subjective dyspnea than does any other test. The MMF is the average flow rate during expiration of the middle 50% of the vital capacity. The MMF is a measurement of a fast vital capacity related to the time required for the maneuver and the MMF relates much better to other dynamic tests of ventilatory function and to dyspnea than total vital capacity, because the MMF reflects the effective volume, or gas per unit of time. Therefore, it is important to have a prediction formula with one can compute the normal value for the subject and the compare with the measured value. However, the formulas for prediction of both MBC and MMF of the Korean children and adolescents are not yet available in the present. Hence, present investigation was attempt to derive the formulas for prediction of both MBC and MMF of the Korean children and adolescents. MBC and MMF were measured in 1,037 healthy Korean children and adolescents (1,035 male and 1,002 female) whose ages ranged from 8 to 18 years. A spirometer (9L, Collins) was used for the measurement of MBC and MMF. Both MBC and MMF were measured 3times in a standing position and the highest values were used. For measurement, the $CO_2$ absorber and sadd valve were removed from the spirometer in order to reduce the resistance in the breathing circuit and the subject was asked to breathe as fast and deeply as possible for 12 seconds in MBC and to exhale completely as fast as possible after maximum inspiration for MMF. During the measurement, investigator stood by the subject to give a constant encouragement. All the measured values were subsequently converted to values at BTPS. The formulas for MBC and MMF were derived by a manner similar to those for Baldwin et al (1949) and Im (1965) as function of age and BSA or age and height. The prediction formulas for MBC (L/min, BTPS) and MMF (L/min, BTPS) of the Korean children and adolescents as derived in this investigation are as follows: For male, MBC=[41.70+{$2.69{\times}Age(years)$}]${\times}BSA$ $(m^{2})$ MBC=[0.083+{$0.045{\times}Age(years)$}]${\times}Ht$ (cm) For female, MBC=[45.53+{$1.55{\times}Age(years)$}]${\times}BSA$ $(m^2)$ MBC=[0.189+{$0.029{\times}Age(years)$}]${\times}Ht$ (cm) For male, MMF= [0.544+{$0.066{\times}Age(years)$}]${\times}Ht$ (cm) For female, MMF=[0.416+{$0.064{\times}Age(years)$}]${\times}Ht$ (cm)

연구목적 청소년의 내재화장애는 겉으로 표출되지 않으므로 의료서비스 이용을 결정하는 부모나 교사가 그 증상을 인지하기 어렵고 청소년 자신도 정신의학적 개입을 기피하는 경향이 있어 치료 기회를 놓치기 쉽다. 본 연구는 내재화장애 청소년의 정신병리를 자기보고식 강점난점설문지(SDQ-SR)와 MMPI-A를 사용하여 조사하고, 이 두 검사도구가 내재화장애를 진단평가하는데 상호보완성이 있는지를 규명하고자 시행되었다. 방 법 청소년 외래환자(13~17세) 91명을 임상진단에 따라 두 집단으로 나누었으며, 내재화장애집단 44명과 그 외 임상진단을 가진 비교집단 47명이 완성한 SDQ-SR과 MMPI-A 자료가 내재화장애 진단을 어느 정도로 예측할 수 있는지 분석하였다. 결 과 로지스틱 회귀분석 결과, SDQ-SR의 정서증상 소척도가 1점 상승할 때 내재화장애의 진단예측력은 2.27배 증가하였다. 또한 ROC 곡선분석에서, SDQ-SR 정서장애 소척도의 절단점수를 4점으로 했을 때 내재화장애진단의 민감도와 특이도가 각각 88.94와 78.72로 나타났다. MMPI-A에서는 A-anx 절단점수가 56이었을 때 민감도와 특이도는 각각 77.27과 74.47이었다. 그러나 이 두 검사도구 소척도들의 어떠한 조합도 SDQ-SR 정서증상 소척도가 갖는 진단예측력을 더 높이지는 못했다. 결 론 본 연구에서는 청소년의 내재화장애를 진단하는데 SDQ-SR의 정서증상과 MMPI-A의 A-anx, A-aln, A 및 INTR가 중요한 소척도임을 알 수 있었으나 이를 확정하기 위해서는 정상대조군을 포함한 대규모의 연구가 필요하다.

This study was intended to measure variations in attachment styles and personal relations through the Sociodrama, There were three purposes in this study. The first was to verify the contiuance of attachment between parents and adolescents. The second was to find the difference of personal relations and self-esteem according to the different attachment styles. finally the third was to prove the therapeutic effects of sociodrama. The results were as follows: 1. In terms of attachment style 19% of the subjects were insecurity style 9.5% avoidance style and 74.1% security style. 2. The contents of Sociodrama were the daily happenings between parents and adolescent children and among siblings and friends. Every subject said that the Sociodrama helped him to shape his internal self to understand others and to realize the importance of parental roles. 3. The avoidance group became insecure after the Sociodrama because of their distinctive traits. The secure feelings of security grou also decreased due to their developmental character-individuation. 4. The comparison of the two post-tests revealed that the attachment style of the avoidance group has parents was observed as well. 5. The Sociodrama is assumed to be effective in the changes of adolescents' abnormal and insecure attachment and personal relations into a normal and secure state., In conclusion results of the study verified this assumption of the effectiveness of the sociodrama and it's longterm effects.

Prevalence of obesity in Korean children and adolescents has dramatically increased since the last 10-20 years. It is important to initiate prevention efforts early in childhood because prevalence of obesity in adolescence is the strongest predictor of its prevalence in adulthood. Intrauterine life, infancy, and preschool years may comprise the critical periods that are essential for the long-term regulation of energy balance therefore, obesity-prevention strategies should be initiated in utero and continued throughout childhood and adolescence. Families with high-risk children should be provided early education about maintaining normal weight. Encouraging physical activity and, especially, avoiding inactivity, are key challenges in the prevention of future obesity. Schools should be primarily involved in educating parents to discourage their children from excessively watching TV or playing computer games and eating unhealthy snacks and food. The involvement of medical practitioners is also important, especially, in the case of obese parents, obesity prevention strategies should be promoted from the first visit of pregnant women to the physicians. Health professionals can also be involved in obesity prevention because they are ideally equipped to identify young children at risk of obesity. Community and nation-wide efforts to increase awareness and promote environments that encourage physical activity and healthy nutrition are required.
