Generally, the osteoporosis of a middle-aged women have been reported that was a high risk in underweight, but the obese women have feasible osteoporosis. Therefor, the subjects were 120 middle-aged women that were diagnosed with osteoporosis in the bone mineral densitometer (BMD), this study was done for the purpose of analyzing the relationship between osteoporosis and body mass index (BMI) of the middle-aged women. We were determined BMI which was less than 18.5 underweight, 18.5 to 22.9 normal, 23.0 to 24.9 overweight, 25.0 to 29.9 obesity and extremely obesity were more than 30. When we examined the BMI distribution of the subjects, it was 2 women (1.7%) for underweight, 18 women (15.0%) for normal, 19 women (15.8%) for overweight, 75 women (62.5%) for obesity and 6 women (5.0%) for extremely obesity. Also, the relationship between osteoporosis and BMI of the subjects, it was the osteoporosis in 13 cases out of 18 (72.2%) with normal, in 14 case out of 19 (73.7%) with overweight, in 63 case out of 75 (84%) with obesity, in 5 case out of 6 (83.3%) with extremely obesity, besides, the osteoporosis usually marks the highest in a BMI with obesity. In conclusion, the result of analyzing the relationship between osteoporosis and BMI, we found out that the osteoporosis of the middle-aged women was high risk with obesity, and that was mostly higher the osteopenia rather than osteoporosis.

This study randomly assigned 24 middle-aged women to determine the effect of a 12-week combined exercise program on cardiovascular function and electrocardiogram-based ST segment and QRS in obese middle-aged women. Analysis of the results was conducted to verify differences within groups and between periods and groups. In terms of cardiovascular function, myocardial oxygen consumption showed a significant decrease in the experimental group during the resting phase and the highest intensity phase during exercise, and an interaction between group and period at rest was also observed. The heart rate recovery rate showed a significant decrease in the experimental group at 2 minutes of recovery, while in the control group, on the contrary, a significant increase was observed. The experimental group showed a significant decrease in systolic blood pressure, and an interaction between group and period was also observed. There was no change in diastolic blood pressure in both the experimental and control groups, and there was a statistically significant decrease in pulse pressure only in the experimental group at the 3-minute recovery stage. In the case of the electrocardiogram, the QRS height in the experimental group showed a significant increase in most cases at rest and at 3, 6, and 9 minutes during the recovery period, while there was no significant difference in the QRS period in both the experimental and control groups, and the ST segment height was significantly increased at rest in the experimental group. appeared to have increased. Therefore, summarizing the results of this study, it is believed that the 12-week combined exercise program has a positive effect in improving cardiovascular function, ventricular contractility in electrocardiograms, and myocardial ischemia in obese middle-aged women.

This study was conducted to examine the effect of a CPR education program on middle-aged women's knowledge of and attitude toward CPR. It is a quasi-experimental study using a non-equivalent control group. 58 middle aged women who participated in a vocational education program in S city were divided into the experimental group (n=29) and control group (n=29). The experimental group participated in the CPR education program once a week for 4 weeks. The data collected were analyzed using the SPSS program, frequency, proportion, chi-square test, and paired t-test. After the application of the CPR education program, the experimental group showed a significantly significant increase in their knowledge (t=10.39, p<.001) and attitude (t=8.94, p<.001). The CPR education program improved the middle-aged women's knowledge of and attitude toward CPR.

The purpose of this study was to identify the relationships between sleep time and depression and suicidal ideation in middle aged women. The subjects of this study were 1,617 women aged 40-64 years who participated in the Seventh Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES VII-2), 2017. Data were downloaded from the KNHANES website and were analysed through complex sampling design data analysis using IBM SPSS 21.0 program. Suicidal ideation is 3.65 times higher in women who sleeps for five hours or less in weekend than in women who sleeps more than seven hours and less than nine hours in weekend. These result indicate that suicide prevention program for middle aged women should include strategies for maintaining proper sleep times and women who sleeps for five hours or less should be considered as a priority intervention case. In additions, further studies on the relationship between sleep times and depression of middle aged women should be conducted.

This study examined the effects of ego-resilience and emotional labor on work-family conflicts among middle-aged female workers. Data were collected through self-reported structured questionnaires of 148 middle-aged female workers from October 2, 2013 to April 10, 2014. The results suggest that the mean score of work-family conflict was 25.59 (SD=11.99) and there were significant differences in living arrangements (F=4.32, p=.015), monthly living expenses (r=.18, p=.028), and job satisfaction (F=6.33, p<.001) by work-family conflict. Work-family conflict was negatively related to ego-resilience (r=-.28 p=.001). Living arrangement (living with parents, children) (${\beta}=.29$, p=.045), monthly living expenses (${\beta}=.22$, p=.006), job satisfaction (${\beta}=-.20$, p=.015), and ego-resilience (${\beta}=-.28$, p<.001) were identified as significant predictors of work-family conflict. This model explained about 19.0% of work-family conflict in middle-aged female workers (F=6.61 p<.001). Therefore, as a strategy to reduce the level of work-family conflict in middle-aged female workers, it is necessary to consider socioeconomic factors such as living arrangements and living expenses that affect work-family conflicts. Moreover, applying psychological intervention to improve job satisfaction and ego-resilience of middle-aged women in the working environment will help reduce work-family conflicts.

12주간의 유산소 운동 및 복합성 운동이 중년여성의 신체 구성 및 혈중 지질에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위해 2009년 3월부터 9월까지 일개 D광역시 소재 일개 S구 보건소 12주 운동프로그램에 참가한 40~50대 중년 여성 78명을 대상으로 비만그룹과 정상그룹으로 나누어 주3회, 회당 80분의 유산소 운동과 유산소운동/근력 운동을 병행한 복합성 운동을 목표 심박수 40~60%에서 실시하였다. 1. WHO 기준 적용 시, 정상군의 경우 운동의 유형에 상관없이 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 2. WHO 기준 적용 시, 비만군의 경우 유산소 운동의 근육량, 체지방량, 체지방률을 제외하고 운동의 유형에 상관없이 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 3. 아시아-태평양 기준 적용 시, 정상군의 경우 일부 항목에서만 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 4. 아시아-태평양 기준 적용 시, 비만군의 경우 유산소 운동의 근육량을 제외하고 운동의 유형에 상관 없이 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 상기 결론에서 볼 수 있듯이, 12주간의 운동 프로그램은 WHO 기준 적용 시 일부 항목을 제외하고 운동 유형에 상관없이 40~50대 중년여성의 신체조성 및 혈중지질에 긍정적 효과를 미치는 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 비만에 대해 더 엄격한 아시아 - 태평양 기준 적용 시 특히 정상 군에서 유의한 차이를 보이지 않는 항목이 많이 나타났는데 이것은 우리나라 비만기준을 아시아태평양기준에서 세계 기준으로 바꿀 필요가 있다는 주장을 뒷받침하고 있다. 세계보건기구 WHO는 2004년에 이미 우리나라에 세계비만기준을 따를 것을 권고했는데, 실제 위험성이 정확하게 평가돼야지 정확한 대책이나 관리가 나올 수 있기 때문이다. WHO 기준에 의거 시 질병의 발생 위험도가 낮은 경도비만이 엄격한 아시아-태평양 지역 기준 적용 시 비만으로 분류되어 불필요하게 체형에 대한 부정적인 이미지나 스트레스를 받을 가능성도 있다.
