본 연구에서는 유전성 비만 마우스를 이용하여 아프리칸 망고 추출물의 항비만 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 기존의 연구 내용을 아프리칸 망고 추출물의 섭취 농도를 식이의 1%와 2%로 정하고, AIN93G diet에 아프리칸 망고 추출물 분말을 1%와 2% 섞어 diet를 제작하였다. 실험 식이를 8주간 제공한 후 실험 종료 시 실험군들의 체중 변화는 ob/ob군에 비해 유의적으로 감소하였다. 실험동물의 간 및 지방조직의 무게를 측정한 결과 간의 무게와 지방조직의 무게가 ob/ob군에 비해 유의적으로 감소하였다. 실험동물의 혈청 지질 함량은 TG, TC, LDL-콜레스테롤이 ob/ob군에 비해 감소하였으나 유의성은 나타나지 않았고, HDL-콜레스테롤은 고농도 섭취 시 ob/ob군에 비해 유의적으로 증가하였다. Adiponectin 유전자의 발현은 ob/ob군이 가장 낮았고, 실험식이 섭취군들은 ob/ob군에 비해 유의적으로 증가하였다. Adipogenic enzyme과 transcription factor인 FAS, LPL, PPAR-${\gamma}$, C/EBP, SREBP 유전자의 발현은 ob/ob군이 가장 높게 나타났고, 실험식이 섭취군들은 ob/ob군에 비해 유의적으로 낮았다. 전반적으로 본 실험에서는 아프리칸 망고 추출물이 leptin 유전자가 결핍된 비만 동물 모델에서 체중 감소 및 혈청 지질 함량을 개선시켜 주는 효과가 있고, adipogenic enzyme과 transcription factor 조절에 유익한 효과가 나타났다. 이러한 결과로부터 아프리칸 망고 추출물이 항비만 효과를 가진 천연 기능성 식품의 개발에 있어 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대할 수 있다.

This study aims to provide basic information on the changes in lower body measurements and shapes of women in their 20s for developing better fitting slacks patterns and a more applicable sizing system that can be widely utilized for women of all ages. Factor and cluster analysis were performed on 1,360 women's direct measurement data within the age group from the 5^th (2004) and 7^th (2015) Korean Human Body Measurement Investigation. The factor analysis identified four factors and explained 82.54% of the total variance; Factor 1, horizontal measurements of lower body; Factor 2, vertical lengths of lower body; Factor 3, measurements of leg and hip areas; Factor 4, lengths of hip and crotch areas. The cluster analysis categorized the lower body shapes of each age group into four shapes; Shape 1, a petite lower body with short legs; Shape 2, a long lower body with medium built; Shape 3, an obese abdomen and legs; Shape 4, a short and slim lower body. Shape 4 (36.5%), Shape 2 (31.2%), Shape 1 (27.8%), and Shape 3 (4.5%) were placed in the order of frequency from the highest to lowest among all the age groups. The findings of this study showed gradual changes in the lower body measurements and shapes of women in their 20s and relevant physical features of each age group. They can be utilized for developing women's slacks patterns with better fitting and more comfort.

이 연구는 지방조직에서 분비되어 비만의 진행 조절에 관여하는 adiponectin과 leptin의 복부지방두께와의 관련성을 보고자 하였다. 연구대상자는 남성 근로자 138명으로 초음파를 이용하여 피하 및 내장지방두께를 측정하고 ELISA kit을 이용하여 adiponectin, BDNF 및 leptin의 농도를 측정하였다. 그 결과, 대상자의 평균피하지방과 내장지방두께는 $1.58{\pm}0.51$과 $4.52{\pm}1.44cm$이었다. Adiponectin, BDNF 및 leptine의 평균농도는 각각 $3.14{\pm}3.52$ ng/ml, $24.11{\pm}8.52$ pg/ml와 $4.27{\pm}2.38$ ng/ml이었다. 내장지방두께는 총 콜레스테롤, LDL-콜레스테롤, 중성지방 및 인슐린 농도와 양의 상관관계를 보였으나, HDL-콜레스테롤과는 음의 상관관계를 보였다. Adiponectin 농도는 HDL-콜레스테롤의 농도와 양의 상관관계를 보였고 총 콜레스테롤, LDL-콜레스테롤, 중성지방, 피하 및 내장지방두께와는 음의 상관관계를 보였다. 그러나 leptin의 농도는 adiponectin과 상반되는 결과를 보였다. Adiponectin의 농도는 비만하지 않은 대상자(BMI<25 $kg/m^2$)에서 유의하게 높았으나 leptin의 농도는 비만한 대상자((BMI>25 $kg/m^2$)에서 높았다. 비만과 adiponectin, BDNF 및 leptin의 관련성을 보기 위하여, 연령, 흡연 및 음주습관 등을 보정한 다음, 다중 로지스틱 회귀분석을 실시한 결과, 비만은 adiponectin(교차비=0.784, p=0.006)과 leptin(교차비=1.493, p=0.001)이 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과는 adiponectin과 leptin의 농도가 복부지방에 영향을 주고, 이들 신경영양 물질들의 생성과 분비 기능저하는 궁극적으로 비만과 심혈관계 질환의 유발에 관여함을 보여준 결과라 판단된다.

Pre-B-cell leukemia transcription factor 1 (PBX1), which is located on chromosome 1q23, was recently reported to be associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus. We examined whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the PBX1 gene are associated with overweight/obesity in a Korean population. We genotyped 66 SNPs in the PBX1 gene and investigated their association with clinical phenotypes found in 214 overweight/obese subjects and 160 control subjects using the Affymetrix Targeted Genotyping chip array. Seven SNPs (g.+75l86C>T, g.+78350C>A, g.+80646C>T, g.+138004C>T, g.+185219G>A, g.+191272A>C, and g.+265317T>A) were associated with the risk of obesity in three models (codominant, dominant, and recessive) (P=0.007-0.05). Haplotype 1 (CAC) and 3 (TAC) of block 3 and haplotype 2 (GGAAT) of block 10 were also strongly associated with the risk of obesity. In the control group, subjects that had homozygote for the major allele for both g.+185219G>A and g.+191272A>C showed lower high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) level compared to those possessing the minor allele, suggesting that the association between the homozygote for the major allele for both g.+185219G>A and g.+191272A>C and HDL-C is attributable to the increased risk of obesity. This study suggests that the PBX1 gene is a possible risk factor in overweight/obese patients.

This study was purposed to present the basic data on the elderly women's somatotype to develop new briefs design with high body-adaptability. The subjects were 115 elderly women in the 60s and 70s and the factor analysis for 32 directly measured values of the body parts was carried out to sort out the constituent factors of the elderly women's bodies, and finally 4 factors were decided. The first factor was the thickness of the trunk and the degree of the obesity in the center of the width, thickness and circumference. The second factor is the perpendicular size of the body with high loads on the longitudinal direction of the body. The third factor was the leg shape. The last factor was the degree of the sagging hip. The elderly women's somatotype was classified into 3 types. The first type was the 'mean somatotype' with the biggest height and the longest lower half body of the three types. The second type was the 'obese somatotype' with the mean height and length of the lower body and with the largest circumference and width. The last type was the 'skinny somatotype' with the smallest values of all the items in the perpendicular size and the degree of the obesity.

Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate reliability and validity of a 27-item Korean Version of the Impact of Weight on Quality of Life in adolescents ($IWQOL-Kids^{(C)}$: Korean Version). Methods: This instrument was administered to 872 adolescents (mean z-BMI: 2.61, mean $age{\pm}SD$: $13.9{\pm}1.2$, male: 51.9%). Reliability was tested by internal consistency method and item analysis, validity test was performed by index of content validity, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and concurrent validity. Sensitivity was tested by ANOVA and t-test. Analyses were performed using SPSS and Amos 18.0. Results: By an exploratory factor analysis, 4 factors were extracted; 'Body esteem' consisted of 9 items with 35.9% of variance (social life: 6 items, 10.23%, physical comfort: 6 items, 8.21%, family relations: 6 items, 7.0%). Four factors explained 61.34% of total variance. Internal consistency coefficients ranged from .766 to .929 for scales on 27 items and equal to .920 for total score for both the 26-item and 27-item tools. A confirmatory factor analysis was conducted for the convergent validity and discriminant validity. The standardized factor loadings to test the convergent validity showed more than .5(C.R<1.965) on all paths after deletion of item PC1 (avoid stairs). The average variances extracted were more than .50 and the construct reliabilities were more than .70. The average variances extracted were stronger than the squares of correlation coefficient of inter-latent variables. Conclusions: These results support that the $IWQOL-Kids^{(C)}$: Korean Version with a 26-item is a reliable and valid tool in Korean obese adolescents.

Purpose: In this study, we sought to understand the risk factor for chronic disease of workers by studying the association between occupational standing time and metabolic syndrome(MetS) in full-time 300 male workers. Materials: Data on age, life habit, work related information of the subjects were surveyed using self-reported questionnaire and interview. MetS was identified based on the report of Alberti et al.(2009). As for the data analysis, SPSS 19.0 was used to conduct the descriptive statistic, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple logistic regression analysis. Results: Daily working hour affects on the lifting heavy objects, running and strenuous exercise(r=-0.137, p<0.01), and total physical function decreased with the increase in age(r=-0.145, p<0.01). Also, obese was significantly associated with genuflection and bend over(r=-0.110, p<0.05). On multiple logistic regression analysis for the diagnostic indices of MetS, occupational standing time were significantly associated with waist circumference(odds ratio=0.885, ${\beta}$ value=-0.122, 95% CI=0.797-0.983, p<0.05) and triglyceride (odds ratio=0.873, ${\beta}$ value=-0.136, 95% CI=0.800-0.953, p<0.01). Conclusions: These results suggest that the working posture may be important risk factor in pathogenesis and growing of MetS and cardiovascular disease.

This study utilized data to classify and characterize the body types of plus-size adult men aged in their 30s and 40s. Diversity is an important factor in the era of inclusive design, and discussion about size diversity to include the plus size should be accommodated. Data from 493 adult men classified as obese (with a World Health Organization criterion ≥25 BMI) were used for the analysis. The results of the study are as follows. Six independent factors were extracted using factor analysis for cluster analysis, which were then classified into five types. Type 1 (29.01%) was identified as body type I with the smallest degree of obesity. Type 2 (15.4%) was identified as body type Y with wide shoulders and a thin waist. Type 3 (14.2%) was the largest body volume (body type O), while the fourth (19.27%) identified as body type H has a large height and upper body. Lastly, type 5 (22.11%) has a long lower body and a slim abdomen, referred to as body type X. This study presents a basis for the development of various clothing sizes utilizing the body shape characteristics of plus-size men in their 30s and 40s. Follow-up research is needed to develop patterns for plus size men and to design various products.
