Determination of weekly and daily energy expenditure was made on 62 Republic of Korea Army cadets who were selected at random in order to estimate the weekly and daily ealorie expenditure. Basal metabolic rate (B.M.R.), and energy cost of various military and daily activities were measured by indirect calorimetry using open circuit method. Time-motion studies were also carried on using a stop-watch. The total weekly energy expenditure was calculated by summation of data using energy cost per minute, and the time spent on each activity. Determination of daily energy expenditure was deduced from each data of weekly energy expenditure. Food survey was also carried on for a week, and daily calorie intake was determined by a weekly average discounting loss in cooking. All measurements were determined from the Standard Table of Food Composition published by the Ministry of National Defense (1961). Following data were observed. 1. Physical status of cadets are as follows. Please note that the height and weight averages are 1-2cm and 4-5kg respectively over that of the Seoul National University students. First year Height 167.92 cm $(S.D.{\pm}4.09)$ Weight 61.72 kg $(S.D.{\pm}4.53)$ Second year Height 167.89 cm $(S.D.{\pm}3.46)$ Weight 63.01 kg $(S.D.{\pm}4.61)$ Third year Height 168.15 cm $(S.D.{\pm}4.24)$ Weight 43.48 kg $(S.D.{\pm}5.03)$ Fourth year Height 168.10 cm $(S.D.{\pm}3.70)$ Weight 64.02kg $(S.D.{\pm}5.10)$ 2. The B.M.R. of cadets averaged $36.57\;Cal./m^2/hr.(S.D.{\pm}3.63\;Cal./m^2/hr.)$ is almost equal with data on the same ages of civilians and the Japanese, but a lower average of $5.1\;Cal./m^2/hr.$ than that of a common soldier. 3. The energy expenditure during various military activities is close agreement with Consolazio. Passmore and Durnin, and Japanese reports.

소아청소년은 성인과는 다른 신체적, 생리적 특성이 있으므로 동일한 신체활동을 할지라도 에너지소비량이 다름이 보고된 바 있다. 그러나 지금까지 국내에서 수행된 소아청소년 대상 연구에서 이들의 에너지소비량을 평가 시, 성인 대상으로 측정한 에너지소비량 또는 성인대상 18단계 신체활동분류표가 이용되어왔다. 최근 소아청소년을 대상으로 한 미국의 자료와 국내의 일부 자료를 토대로 4단계 연령대 (6-9세, 10-12세, 13-15세 및 16-18세)에 따라 서로 다른 에너지당량 (METs)을 제시하는 한국 소아청소년을 위한 신체활동분류표가 보고되었다. 이에 본 연구의 1부에서 에너지소비량 측정방법의 gold standard로 알려져 있는 이중표식수법을 이용하여 소아청소년을 위한 신체활동분류표의 타당도를 평가한 결과, 이의 활용 가능성을 확인하였다. 2부에서는 세계보건기구에서 제안한 방법 (TEE = REE × PAL), 즉 간접열량계로 측정한 REE과 소아청소년 신체활동분류표로 측정한 PAL을 이용하여 166명의 소아청소년 (초·중·고등학생)의 일일 총에너지소비량을 산출하였다. 이를 기준으로 한국인 영양소 섭취기준에서 제시한 공식을 이용한 EER을 비교한 결과, 과대평가 비율이 47.3%로 나타났다. 또한 소아청소년 신체활동분류표를 이용하여 산출된 신체활동 강도별 및 신체활동 유형별 소비시간이 성별 및 연령대별로 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 앞으로 중학생 및 고등학생을 포함하는 다수의 소아청소년을 대상으로 이중표식수법을 이용하여 일일 총에너지소비량을 측정하는 연구가 수행되어, 소아청소년을 위한 신체활동분류표의 타당도가 폭넓게 평가되어야 한다. 또한 이와 같은 이중표식수법 연구를 통하여 우리나라 소아청소년을 위한 에너지필요추정량 산출 공식의 타당도 평가와 함께 한국의 소아청소년을 위한 에너지필요추정량공식이 개발되어야 할 것이다. 또한 학업부담이 많은 고등학생 뿐만 아니라, 중학생 및 초등학생에서도 강도있는 신체활동의 소비시간이 매우 낮은 것으로 나타났으므로 우리나라 소아청소년의 건강 및 비만의 예방 및 관리를 위하여 이들의 에너지소비량을 증진시킬 수 있는 프로그램의 개발 및 적용이 요구된다

Objectives: We tried to confirm physical activity of 1,000 Kcal per week was a meaningful point in controlling coronary artery disease risks in female older adults. Methods: Participants were 66 female older adults recruited from senior welfare center. Participants were provided with accelerometer (e-step, Kenz, Japan) for measuring daily energy expenditure. Graded exercise test was done for measuring aerobic fitness. Blood glucose and lipid were analyzed. Framingham risk score was calculated based on blood glucose, blood lipid, and smoking. These variables were compared between the group expended more than 1,000 Kcal/week and the group with energy expenditure below 1,000 Kcal/week. Results: The group expended over 1,000kcal/week showed to be superior to the counterpart group in following variables; AC(Abdominal Circumference), %BF, $HR_{rest}$(resting heart rate), $VO_{2peak}$, FBG, LDL-C, TG, BDI-II, QOL, AR(Absolute Risk), RR(Relative Risk). Conclusions: The group expended over 1,000 Kcal/week was likely to have less probability in CAD than group expended less than 1,000 Kcal/week. The result of this study suggests the important role of active daily life that can be replaced with that of regular exercise especially for those who are not available to do structured exercise.

Body weight is maintained at a relatively constant level over days and months despite variability in food intake and physical activity. To achieve energy homeostasis, the hypothalamus receives information related to energy surplus or shortage from the periphery and controls food intake and energy expenditure. Leptin, an adipocyte derived hormone, is a principal mediator that signals the brain about the stored energy status. Increased leptin signaling in the brain prevents excess energy stores by suppressing food intake and increasing energy expenditure. In addition, insulin and nutrients themselves, such as glucose and free fatty acids, also regulate food intake.

The purposes of this study were to assess energy expenditure of eight walking activities in normal weight and overweight or obese high school students and to evaluate the accuracy of two accelerometers worn on the ankle and waist. Thirty-five (male 17, female 18) healthy high school students participated in this study. They were classified into normal weight (n=21) and overweight or obese (n=14) groups. The subjects completed five treadmill walking activities (TW2.4, TW3.2, TW4.0, TW4.8, TW5.6), followed by three self-selected hallway walking activities (walk as if walking and talking with a friend: HWL, walk as if hurrying across the street at a cross-walk: HWB, walk as fast as you can but do not run: HWF). Energy expenditure and metabolic equivalents (METs) were measured using a portable indirect calorimeter, and predicted energy expenditures and METs were derived from two accelerometers placed on the ankle and waist. Measured energy expenditures per body weight (kg) of eight walking activities were significantly higher in the normal weight group than in the obese group and significantly higher in female than male. The ankle accelerometer overestimated energy expenditures and METs (bias 49.4~105.5%), whereas the waist accelerometer underestimated energy expenditures and METs (bias -30.3~-85.8). Except for HWF (fast) activity, METs of seven activities were moderate intensity based on Compendium METs intensity categories. HWF (fast) activity was vigorous intensity. METs from the ankle accelerometer were vigorous intensity except TW2.4 activity (moderate intensity). METs from the waist accelerometer were low intensity (TW2.4, TW3.2, TW4.0, TW4.8, HWL) and moderate intensity (TW5.6, HWB, HWF). Physical activity guidelines were developed based on measured physical activity level of high school students. Further studies should investigate the effects of body composition in larger subjects.

일반적으로 에너지 필요량은 에너지 평형 상태에서의 에너지소비량으로 정의된다. 이중표식수법 (doubly labeled water, DLW)은 총에너지소비량 (total energy expenditure, TEE)을 측정하는 가장 정확한 방법으로 알려져 있다. 2002년, 미국 Institute of Medicine (IOM)은 미국인과 캐나다인을 위한 영양소 섭취기준 (dietary reference intakes, DRIs)을 제안하고, 이중표식수법 (DLW)을 이용한 연구결과들을 모아서 에너지필요추정량 (estimated energy requirement, EER) 산출식을 개발하였다. 2005년부터 한국인 영양소 섭취기준에서도 이 산출식을 이용하여 에너지필요추정량을 설정해왔다. 연령대를 기준으로 한 이 산출식에서는 체중과 신장뿐만 아니라 신체활동수준 (physical activity level, PAL)에 따른 (sedentary, low active, active, and very active) 신체활동계수 (physical activity, PA)가 적용되었다. 이중표식수법과 신체활동일기를 이용하여 산출한 한국인의 신체활동수준은 '저활동적' (1.40-1.59)에 해당되었으므로, '저활동적'에 해당하는 신체활동단계별 계수 (PA)가 에너지필요추정량 (EER) 산출식에 적용되었다. 최근 한국에서도 규칙적으로 다양한 신체활동을 하는 사람들이 증가하고 있어 '활동적 (active)'인 사람들과 '매우 활동적 (very active)'인 사람들을 위한 에너지필요추정량을 별도로 제시하였다. 앞으로 미국과 일본처럼, 한국에서도 이중표식수법 (DLW) 연구를 확대하여 한국인을 위한 에너지필요추정량 산출식이 개발되어야 한다. 또한 신체활동 일기와 새로운(한국인을 위한) 신체활동 분류표를 이용하여 신체활동수준 (PAL)을 정확하게 평가할 수 있는 표준화된 가이드라인을 마련해야한다.

Background: Catastrophic health expenditure (CHE) occurs when medical expenditure of a household passes over a certain ratio of household income. This research studied the effect of gender on CHE based on Korea Health Panel data. Methods: This study implemented binary logistic regression model to figure out whether gender affects CHE and how different gender groups show pattern of CHE process. With gender, age, marital status, income level, economic activity, membership of private insurance, existence of chronic disease, and self-rated health were included in the model. Results: Results showed that females faced CHE 1.5 times more than males (odds ratio, 1.241). Also, main determinants of CHE in female groups were marital status, while age and economic activity status were significant in male groups. Subgroup analysis displayed that married female under 35 years old are located in intersectionality of CHE including pregnancy and delivery, multiple health risk behaviors, mental stress, and relatively vulnerable social status due to lower income. Meanwhile, both gender above 50 years old faced remarkably high chance of CHE, which seems to be caused by complex health risk behaviors and chronic diseases. Conclusion: Such results implied not only that gender is an important determinant of CHE, but also other determinants of CHE differ according to gender, which suggests a necessity of gender-based CHE support and rescue policy.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate effects of kochujang and red pepper on energy intake, body fat content and energy expenditure in rats fed on high-fat(30%) diet. Kochujang and red pepper power were added in the high-fat diet, adjusting the level to 95 and 22g/kg diet, respectively, The level of red pepper addition was corresponding was corresponding to the level of the content of red pepper powder in the kichujang-added diet. Kochujang induced a 30% reduction in body fat gain which was associated with a significant increase in energy expenditure. However, red pepper reduced body fat gain by only 15%. Furthermore, energy expenditure was not affected by red pepper. Metabolizable energy intake, apparent digestibility and body protein gain were not affected by either kochujang or red pepper. It has been known that capsaicin, a pungent component of red pepper, enhances activity of brown adipose tissue through increasing protein content. In the present study, in addition of protein content, DNA content of interscapular brown adipose tissue was also increased by kochujang. Therefore, it appeared that the anti-obesity effects of kochujang was greater than those of red pepper, indicating more than red pepper was involved in the expression of the anti-obesity effects of kochujang(Korean J Nutrition 33(8) : 787-793, 2000)

The study was attempted to observe effects of voluntary exercise on energy expenditure and on storage of excessive energy into body fat in adult mice. Mice, body weight 25-30g, were divided into two groups, exercise and sedentary group. Voluntary exercize by running wheel was allowed for former group but not for the mice of the latter group which were restricted by limiting space allowance 13.5$\times$11.5$\times$15.0cm per mouse. During a period of 4 weeks of feeding trial, they were fed ad libitum starch-casein based diet added with $^3\textrm{H}$-glucose (D-[1-$^3\textrm{H}$(N)]-glucose) at a level of 20 nCi per g of diet. Measurements were made to study hematology, lipase activity in epididymal adipose tissue, total contents of body waste and fat, and radiactivity of $^3\textrm{H}$-glucose incoporated into body fat. Dietary intake, body weight gain and amount of voluntary physical activities were also measured. The results obtained ard summarized as follows; 1) Amount of metabolizable energy intake, body weight gain and body fat were not statistically different between the two group. However, mice of the exercise group tended to show lower body weight gain body fat contants, but higher energy expenditure than those of the sedentary group. 2) Radioactivity of $^3\textrm{H}$-glucose incoporated into body fat appeared lower for exercise group expressd on a whole body fat basis. The activity was, however, higher for exercise group when expressed based on per g of fat compared to that of sedentary group. 3) Exercise group showed also higher activity of lipase in epididymal adipose tissue than the other group. 4) Mice whose physical activities were restricted appeared to have lower levels of hemoglobin and hematocrit values than of the exercise group. These results seem to support the theory that turn-over rate of body fat is activated by exercise and to suggest that consumed energy is to be converted primarily into body fat before its use as energy source by oxidation even during a period of continuous energy expenditure by exercise.

This study was conducted to investigate the time spent, activity coefficient and energy expenditure on 7 different types of activity. Total of 386 5th and 6th grade primary school boys and girls in Seoul participated in this study. The participants spent 8 hrs for rest, 4 hrs for out of school study, 3 hrs for leisure, 1 hr 45 mins. for hygiene, 1 hr for commute, and 15 mins. for house choir activity in the day of 6 class hours. The average activity coefficient of 1 day for boys and girls were 1.69 and 1.64, respectively. The TEEs were 2,382 kcal and 2,050 kcal for boys and girls, respectively. The energy cost for study related activity (in school and study activities) was 40% of the TEE, and for rest 20%, for commute 9%, and for hygiene 10% of the TEE. The energy cost for house choir was only about 2% of TEE. The 91.2% participant's EER was higher than the EER shown in the table of 2010 DRI for Koreans. When the participant's EER was compared with the energy allowance calculated by the method in 2000 RDA for Korean, 81.6% was in the range of ${\pm}5%$, and the correlation coefficients between the 2 values were 0.981 for boys and 0.978 for girls, which means high agreements.
