The body measurement ratios and indices used in this study are all 3D female measurement data of the two countries were obtained from Size Korea Project and SizeUSA Project. The purpose of the study is to compare and analyze body measurement data between two countries. The results of this research are helpful for the clothing manufacturer and company to trade with America. The samples were 1,988 Korean and 6,306 American females. Thirty-five body measurement ratios and indices were chosen as the principal measurements in making garments. The conclusion of this research was as follow; First, U.S. females have measurements that exceed Korean women, except for crotch length total and shoulder slope. Second, the correlation coefficients of height and weight are relatively higher than other measurements in the two countries' body measurements. Finally, American women's height ratios are significantly bigger than Korean women's in most height ratios. On the other hand, Korean are significantly bigger than American in weight ratios. The drop values of Korean females are also smaller than those of American. It was recognized that American women are much bigger, wider and more obese than Korean according to the results by utilizing the girth ratios. BMI, Rohrer and Vervaeck index.

본 연구는 노년여성을 위한 의복 원형을 설계하기 위하여 60∼80세 의 노년여성을 대상으로 직접 계측을 실시하여 체형을 유형화하고 동작에 따른 체표면 특성을 분석하였다. 인자분석을 실시한 결과 상반신 비만요인, 높이요인, 상반신 앞면길이, 어깨 형태, 상반신 뒷면 길이, 어깨 경사도, 목형태, 진동깊이의 8개 인자가 추출되었다. 군집분석에 의한 체형분류 결과, 유형 1은 상반신의 골격이 가장 작고 왜소하며 가슴의 하수가 작은편의 앞으로 굴신된 체형이며, 유형 2는 키가 작고 보통인 체형으로 상반신의 앞뒤면 길이가 짧으며 가슴의 하수가 크고 어깨가 넓고 약간 앞으로 숙여진 체형이다. 유형 3은 키가 가장 크고 등과 어깨가 두꺼운 골격이 큰 체형이다. 유형 4는 키가 약간 크고 마른 체형에 상반신 앞면길이 인자가 큰 유형으로 약간 뒤로 젖혀진 체형이라 할 수 있다. 동작에 따른 체표면의 변화를 델마토그래프법 (Dermatograph method)에 의해 측정 한 결과, 가로 방향에서 동작에 따라 유의한 차이를 나타낸 기준선은 뒤목점-어깨끝점길이, 어깨 길이 및 앞가슴둘레선, 후액와선이며, 세로 방향에서는 어깨끝점-BP-허리중심점, 어깨중심에서 앞허리선까지의 앞길이 및 옆선길이로 나타났다.

The aim of this study was to analyze and typify the body shape of tall women aged 20-69 using 3D measurement data from the 2020 8^th Human Dimensions Survey data with greater than 165.0 cm in height defined as large stature. Each body type's characteristics were examined to derive points of differentiation compared to women of average body type. The analysis showed that as height increases, body height, length, and generally body circumference, thickness, and width also increase. However, taller women were found to have thinner waists, indicating a wider, flatter waist area. Waist circumference was also smaller, albeit not at a statistically significant level. Body shapes of adult women over 165.0 cm tall were classified into three types. The following body types were analyzed: thick ankles and drooping shoulders, thin and short torso, tall and long, long torso and thick ankles, large body circumference, thickness and width, normal torso length, and short stature and thin ankles. To develop garments for adult women over 165.0 cm tall, a new drafting method was required set the waist, knee height, and shoulder width.

키 1m65cm, 몸은 마리린 먼로형, 어깨는 팔등신, 얼굴은 항상 웃음이 깃들여 있고 두툼한 입술, 오똑한 코, 눈은 샛별처럼 빛나게, 마음씨 착하고 인자하며 한남편만 섬기게, 물론 머리는 수재급으로ㅡ.세상의 모든 여성은 미스인터내셔널급, 남성도 마찬가지. 인간의 계속적인 개조는 신과 같은 슈퍼맨을 탄생케 할는지 모른다. 그러나 이는 유전공학에 거는 먼 인류의 꿈이다. 하지만 21세기에는 유전공학산업이 오늘의 전자산업에 버금갈 큰 산업이 될 것은 틀림없다. 이에 따라 세계는 유전공학연구에 큰 돈을 쏟고 있다. 유전공학이란 무엇인가. 유전공학의 정체에서 핵심기술의 응용, 나아가서 인간복제의 가능성과 이에 따른 역기능 등을 총정리해 본다.

This study analyzes the somatotype of tall stature Korean women's lower body for proper slack patterns. The study subjects consist of 350 statures over 165cm in 18-59 aged women's of Size Korea 2010. Descriptive statistics, factor analysis, cluster analysis, ANOVA, Duncan test were used for analysis using SPSS 19.0. The result are as follows: Factor 1 was the horizontal dimension of waist and hip, factor 2 was the vertical dimension of lower body, factor 3 was the horizontal dimension of the lower limbs, factor 4 was the crotch length, and factor 5 was the horizontal dimension of hip. The lower body was divided into 3 types based on analysis of the above factors. Type 1 (46.6%) represented stout type with a thick and medium length of crotch and leg. Type 2 (22.7%) represented a curve type from waist to hip with long crotch length, while short and thin leg. Type 3 (30.7%) was referred as slender type, with short crotch length, while long and thin leg.

Purpose : GnRH analogues(GnRHa) are used to treat central precocious puberty(CPP). However, in some patients, the GV decrease is so remarkable that it impairs predicted adult height(PAH); and there fore, the addition of growth hormone(GH) is suggested. We analysed the growth changes during two years and final adult height(FAH) in girls with idiopathic CPP treated with combined therapy, compared with those of girls treated with GnRHa alone. Methods : For the analysis, we classified the patients, who was treated for longer than two years, into three groups depending on the initial PAH and combination of GH; PAH_L, treated with GnRHa and PAH less than midparental height(MPH) - 5 cm. PAH_H, treated with GnRHa and PAH greater than MPH - 5 cm. GnRHa＋GH, combined GH treatment, regardless of PAH before treatment. We analysed the GV and PAH change during the first two years and FAH. Results : In PAH_L, the PAH(SDS) at first year of therapy was significantly increased to $153.5{\pm}6.5cm(-1.4{\pm}1.3)$ from $149.7{\pm}6.4cm(-2.1{\pm}1.3)$ before treatment(P=0.004). In PAH_H, there was no significant increase in PAH during the two years of treatment. During the first year of combination of GH and GnRHa, GV and PAH increased significantly. We observed significant increases in FAH, comparing to the initial PAH in the PAH_L and GnRHa＋GH groups. The height gains(FAH - initial PAH) were significantly higher in the PAH_L and GnRHa＋GH groups than that in the PAH_H group. Conclusion : This study suggests the FAH and height gains are improved in patients, whose predicted adult height before treatment was shorter than those with higher predicted adult height, with the treatment of GnRHa alone or in combination with GH. GH could not improve the final adult height, but compensated the growth in patients whose growth velocity was decelerated by GnRHa alone.
