Abstract

This study was conducted to provide basic data for the prevention and management of precocious puberty by investigating the relevance of physical parents characteristics and behavioral characteristics of girls with precocious puberty. The research period was June 1, 2016 to February 25, 2017. The subjects were 312 girls matched depending on gender and age which were composed of 104 female patients of precocious puberty visiting H oriental medicine clinic and S one in Seoul, 104 girls of A control group and 104 girls of B control group attending elementary school in gun. A total of 312 of each group were compared though t-test, $X^2$-test, and ANOVA to examine the physical parent characteristics and behavioral characteristics between girls with precocious puberty and normal girls, after which influence factors for precocious puberty were analyzed through multinomial logistic regression. The main influencing factor was found to be the height of their own and mothers' menarcheal age in terms of body and parent characteristics. Other factors influencing behavioral characteristics included the frequency of meat intake and eating-out in terms of eating habits. Additionally, watching TV, hours of using smart phone and number of private institute girls attending were also found to be influencing factors. Thus, interest in school and society in increasing precocious puberty in girls is important and extensive investigation of the causes and frequency of precocious puberty is necessary.

본 연구 목적은 우리나라 성조숙증 여아들의 신체상 부모특성 및 행동특성이 성조숙증에 미치는 관련성을 파악하여 성조숙증 예방 및 관리를 위한 기초 자료를 제공하는 것이다. 연구대상 조사기간은 2016년 6월 1일부터 2017년 2월 25일까지였으며, 연구의 대상자는 서울시 소재 어린이전문 H한의원과 S한의원에 성조숙증으로 내원한 환자군 여아 104명과 대조군 A그룹 104명, 지방 군단위 소재 초등학교 여아의 대조군 B그룹 104명으로, 성별과 연령을 짝지은 총 312명과의 비교를 통해 성조숙증 여아와 정상 발달 여아의 신체상 부모특성 및 행동특성을 파악하고자 집단 간 특성을 t-test, $X^2test$, ANOVA 분석을 통해 비교하고, 성조숙증의 영향요인은 이항로지스틱(Multinomial logistic)회귀분석으로 분석하였다. 연구결과 성조숙증에 미치는 주요 영향요인은 첫째, 신체 및 부모특성에서 본인 신장과 어머니 초경연령이 도출되었다. 둘째, 행동특성의 식습관에서 고기류 섭취횟수와 외식빈도가 도출되었다. 셋째, 행동특성의 일상생활에서 TV시청과 스마트폰 사용시간, 수강학원 수가 도출되었다. 따라서 증가하는 여아의 성조숙증에 대해 부모와 학교 나아가 사회적 관심이 중요하며 성조숙증에 대한 발생원인과 발생빈도를 밝히는 광범위한 연구수행이 필요하다.
