Abstract

Purpose: Atopic dermatitis (AD), a typical chronic disease in children, is an allergy disease that is highly associated with food. Thus, attention to food intake is needed to prevent and manage it. Therefore, we analyzed differences in food and nutrient intakes depending on AD status in under 12-year-old children. Methods: A total of 2,690 participants were enrolled in this study from the combined 2013-2015 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Subjects were divided into an AD group and normal group (non-AD group). General characteristic, food and nutrients intakes, and prevalence of insufficient and excessive nutrient intake were analyzed using χ2 test and regression analyses. The AD odds ratio (OR) for insufficient and excessive nutrient intakes was analyzed using multiple logistic regression analyses. Results: Food and nutrient intakes were not significantly different between the AD and non-AD groups. However, the ratio of calcium intake to recommended nutrient intake was about 70% in both groups, which can be attributed to the overall lack of calcium intake among Korean children. There were no differences in energy or nutrient intakes between the groups, but compared with Korean Dietary Reference Intakes for Koreans, the appropriate intake ratios of fat and vitamin C in the AD group were higher than those in the non-AD group. The AD OR decreased when fat was consumed at above appropriate levels and vitamin C was consumed at lower or excess levels. Conclusion: In children, AD may be related to the nutrient intake ratio of fats and vitamin C, and we speculate that these results were affected by dietary restrictions for AD management.

본 연구에서는 국민건강영양조사 제 6기 1-3차년도 (2013년-2015년) 참여자 중 1-12세 미만인 어린이의 AD 여부와 에너지 및 영양소 적정섭취비율과의 관계를 분석하였다. AD군은 전체 연구대상자의 약 15.2%로, 남아 비율이 높았으며, non-AD군보다 평균나이가 약 0.7세 더 많았고, 나이를 세분화하여 비교했을 때, 나이가 들수록 AD 환아 수가 증가하였다. 신체 계측 결과, AD군이 non-AD군보다 신장과 체중 값이 더 컸지만, BMI는 군 간의 차이를 보이지 않았다. AD 여부와 식품군 및 영양소섭취 현황을 나이와 성별을 보정하여 비교한 결과, 두 군 간의 유의미한 차이가 있는 영양소는 없었다. 다만, 칼슘의 RNI 대비 섭취비율이 두 군 모두에게서 약 70% 수준으로 나타났는데, 이는 우리나라 어린이의 전반적인 칼슘 섭취량 부족에서 온 것으로 볼 수 있다. AD 여부에 따른 에너지와 영양소 섭취량의 차이는 나타나지 않았으나, KDRIs에 따른 적정섭취비율을 비교한 결과, AD군에서 지방과 비타민 C를 적정한 수준으로 섭취하는 비율이 더 높았고, 부족하거나 과잉으로 섭취하는 비율은 더 낮았다. AD 위험도와 에너지 및 영양소 적정섭취비율과의 관계를 분석하였을 때에는 지방은 과잉으로 섭취했을 경우, 비타민 C는 부족하거나 과잉으로 섭취했을 경우 AD 위험도가 감소하였다. 결론적으로, 어린이에게서 AD는 지방과 비타민 C의 영양소섭취비율과 관련이 있는 것으로 보이며, 이러한 결과는 AD 관리를 위한 식이 제한의 영향도 있을 것으로 예상한다. 이에 대해 좀 더 명확하게 인과관계를 규명하기 위한 추가 연구가 요구된다.
