Childhood obesity causes a higher risk of obesity, premature death and disability in adulthood. In addition, obese children experience an increased risk of respiratory problems, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance and psychological effects. This study aimed to investigate how an exercise intervention affects health-related physical fitness and inflammatory-related blood factors in obese children after. We hypothesized that there would be positive effects on serum levels of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), connecting peptide(C-peptide) and resistin, as well as in muscle and cardiovascular-related physical capacities, after an exercise intervention in obese children. Thirty-seven obese children haveperformed health-related fitness tests and provided blood samples for the analysis of changes in circulating biomarkers, both before and after an 8-week exercise intervention, which includes stretching, aerobic exercise, resistance exercise and sports games. The results indicate that exercise training beneficially affects body compositions, especially percentage body fat and muscle mass, without influencing to body weight and height. The results of the physical fitness tests show that muscle and cardiovascular capacity were increased in obese children in response to exercise training. Simultaneously, the exercise training decreased circulating levels of C-peptide, which equated to a "large" effect size. Although there were no significant effects on the levels of IGF-1 and resistin, they show a "small" effect size. Therefore, our findings suggest that the exercise intervention have beneficial effects on body composition and physical fitness levels in obese children, whichmight be associated with the decline in circulating C-peptide.

Purpose : This study was conducted to determine the effects of a brain spinning program on cognitive function, body composition, health related fitness and physical self-efficacy of children and adolescents. Methods : This study, 34 children and adolescents were selected and divided into two groups : the exercise group (n=16), which received a brain spinning program and the control group (n=16), which did not receive any exercise program. The program was conducted for 30 minutes three times a week for 4 weeks, and the cognitive function, body composition, health related fitness and physical self-efficacy were measured both before and after the program. Results : The exercise group, which received a brain spinning program showed a significant increase in short-term memory (p<.05) and working memory (p<.01), and muscle mass increased significantly only in the exercise group (p<.05). In addition, left grip strength increased in the exercise group (p<.01), and the maximum oxygen intake decreased significantly only in the control group (p<.05), and Sit-forward bend increased significantly only in the exercise group (p<.01). Physical self-efficacy significantly increased only in the exercise group (p<.05). Conclusion : In summary, short-term memory, cognitive efficiency, working memory, muscle mass, left grip strength, maximum oxygen intake, and left forward bending in children and adolescents significantly increased after the 4-week brain spinning program. However, the control group that was not provided with the 4-week brain spinning program showed a significant increase in body weight and a significant decrease in maximum oxygen intake. In conclusion, the 4-week brain spinning program has positive effects on short-term memory, cognitive function, muscle mass, muscle strength, cardiorespiratory endurance, flexibility, and physical self-efficacy.

Proper nutrient intakes and physical fitness focus one's attention on health promotion. This study was conducted to investigate nutrient intakes and physical fitness by BMI in middle school students. Health-related questionnaire, dietary intakes, food frequency questionnaire and physical fitness were studied. There were no significant differences in health-related questionnaire, food frequency questionnaire and physical fitness by BMI, but several nutrition intakes, preference of salty tastes and the proportion of iron deficiency of female students were significantly different by BMI. Although the female obese group (BMI 85 - 100 percentile) had decreased the proportion of iron deficiency and increased fish intake frequency than other groups, obese females did not show better physical fitmess than other groups. And the average Ca intake was below $75\%$ of Korean RDA in both male and female students. Significantly positive correlation was found between calorie intake and push-up of normal (BMI 15 - 84 percentile) male students (r = 0.29), also significantly negative correlation was found between protein intake and 50m dash of normal female students (r = 0.22). And significantly positive correlation was found between beans and bent knee sit-up of normal male students (r = 0.25), and significantly positive correlations were found between beans, meat, eggs, green & yellow vegetable and sit and reach (r = 0.20, r = 0.28, r = 0.21, r = 0.19) and significantly negative correlation was found between beans and long distance race of normal female students. Therefore, this study suggests that proper nutrition and non-obese states should be achieved for health promotion in middle school students.

본 연구는 40세 이상 중년의 남자 근로자 253명을 대상으로 신체 적합도 및 여가중 신체 활동과 혈중 지질 중 심혈관질환 발생에 특히 중요한 혈중 총콜레스테롤 값, HDL 콜레스테롤 값 및 총콜레스테롤/HDL 콜레스테롤 비와의 관련성을 알아 보기 위하여 시도된 단면조사연구이다. 단순분석에서 혈중 총콜레스테롤 값과 유의한 상관 관계가 있는 변수는 신체 적합도(r=-0.27), 비만지수(r=0.27)였다. 여가중 신체 활동은 총콜레스테롤 값이 170mg/dl 이상군에서만 총콜레스테롤 값과 유의한 상관관계(r= -0.20)가 있었다. HDL 콜레스테롤 값과 유의한 상관관계가 있는 변수들은 신체 적합도(r=0.15), 비만지수(r=-0.22)및 1주간 음주량(r=0.14)이였다. 총콜레스테롤/HDL 콜레스테롤 비와 유의한 상관관계가 있는 변수들은 신체 적합도(r=0.23), 비만지수(r=0.32), 총흡연지수(r=0.13), 1주간 음주량(r=-0.13) 및 야채 선호도(r=0.13)이었다. 신체 적합도는 안정시 맥박수와 중등도의 상관관계(r=-0.66)가 있었고, 여가중 신체 활동(r=0.19)및 비만지수(r=-0.18)와도 유의한 상관관계가 있었다. 다중회귀분석(Multiple linear regression) 결과 혈중 총콜레스테롤 값과 유의한 관련성을 보이는 변수는 신체 적합도(beta=-0.23)와 비만지수(beta=0.18)이었다. HDL 콜레스테롤 값과 유의한 관련성을 보이는 변수는 비만지수(beta=-0.25)뿐이었다. 총콜레스테롤/HDL 콜레스테롤 비와 유의한 관련성을 보이는 변수는 비만지수(beta=0.30)와 신체 적합도(beta=-0.16) 및 야채선호도(beta=0.14)이었다. 결론적으로 중년 남성 근로자들에서 신체 적합도는 비만지수와 함께 혈중 총콜레스테롤 값, HDL 콜레스테롤 값, 총콜레스테롤/HDL 콜레스테롤 비의 중요한 관련 요인이었다. 여가중 신체 활동은 혈중 총콜레스테롤 값이 170mg/dl 이상인 군에서만 혈중 총콜레스테롤 값과 관계가 있었고, 신체 적합도와는 관련성이 유의하지만 크지 않았다. 따라서 신체 적합도가 여가중 신체 활동보다 혈중 지질 농도의 더 중요한 관련요인이며, 앞으로 신체 활동에 관련된 역학적 연구에서 신체 적합도가 독립적이고 중요한 요인으로 추가되어야 할 것이다.

지적장애인은 인지기능과 조정기술의 손상, 낮은 운동능력 등으로 인해 신체활동수준이 부족하고 음식섭취 욕구가 강하여 생활습관질환의 이환율이 높아 삶의 전 영역에 영향을 미친다. 안타깝게도 현대의학으로는 지적장애인의 삶의 질을 개선시키기에는 많은 어려움이 있다. 하지만 규칙적인 신체활동은 이러한 문제점을 개선시키는 중요한 중재로 인정되고 있다. 본 연구는 유희성과 중독성이 있는 가상현실 게임프로그램을 통한 운동프로그램과 일반적인 빠르게 걷기 프로그램을 통해 건강관련체력과 정신건강수준 등을 비교하였다. 중도탈락자를 제외하고 가상현실 게임운동프로그램군 5명, 빠르게 걷기 운동프로그램군 4명을 대상으로 비모수검증을 통해 비교분석하였다. 가상현실 게임바이크운동프로그램군의 체중, 근지구력 요소에서 유의한 개선이 있었으며, 모든 집단의 중성지방, 유연성, 최대산소섭취량, 운동지속시간에서는 통계적으로 유의하지는 않았지만 개선되는 경향을 보였다. 운동프로그램 전·후 우울, 사회적 부적응, 정신건강에서는 빠르게 걷기 운동프로그램군에 비해 가상현실 게임바이크운동프로그램군에서 유의하지는 않지만 개선되는 경향을 보였으며, 운동 흥미도가 높고, 자각인지도는 낮게 나타났다. 이는 게임기를 이용한 가상현실 운동프로그램의 적용이 게임으로 인한 부정적인 측면보다 운동으로 인한 긍정적인 면이 크다는 것을 의미하므로 지적장애인의 운동프로그램을 계획하는 데 적극적으로 활용할 필요가 있다고 판단된다.

The aims of this study were to understand and to predict the determinent factors affecting the exercise behaviors and physical fitness by testing the Pender's revised health promotion model, and to help the patients with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis perform the continous exercise program, and to help them maximize the physical effect such as muscle strength, endurance, and functional status and mental effects including self efficacy and quality of life, and improve the physical and mental well being, and to provide a basis for the nursing intervention strategies. Of the selected variables in this study, the endogenous variables included the physical fitness, exercise score, exercise participation, perceived benefits of action, perceived barriers of action to exercise, activity-related affect(depression) and perceived self-efficacy, interpersonal influences(family support), situational factors(duration of arthritis, fatigue) and the exogenous variables included personal sociocultural factor(education level), personal biologic factor(body mass index), personal psychologic factor(perceived health status) and prior related behavior factors(previous participation in exercise, life-style). We analyzed the clinical records of 208 patients with rheumatoid arthritis and degenerative arthritis who visited the outpatient clinics at H university hospital in Seoul. Data were composed of self reported qustionnaire and good of fitness score which were obtained by padalling the ergometer of bicycle for 9 minutes. SPSS Win 8.0 and Window LISREL 8.12a were used for statistical analysis. Of 75 hypothetical paths that influence on physical fitness, exercise participation, exercise score, perceived benefits of action, perceived barriers of action to exercise, activity-related affect(depression) and perceived self-efficacy, interpersonal influences(family support), situational factors(duration of arthritis, fatigue), 40 were supported. The physical fitness was directly influenced by life-style, perceived health status, education level, family support, fatigue, which explained 12% of physical fitness. The exercise participation were directly influenced by life-style, education level, past exercise behavior, perceived benefits of action, perceived barriers of action, depression and duration of arthritis, which explained 47% of exercise participation. Exercise score were directly affected by perceived self efficacy. BMI, life-style, past exercise behavior, perceived benefits of action, family support, perceived health status. perceived barriers of action, and fatigue, which explained 70%. Perceived benefits of action was directly influenced by BMI, life-style, which explained 39%. Perceived barriers of action were directly influeced by past exercise behavior, perceived health status, which explained 7%. Perceived self efficacy were directly influeced by level of education, perceived health status, life-style, which explained 57%. Depression were directly influeced by past exercise behavior, BMI, life-style, which explained 27%. Family support were directly influeced by life-style, perceived health status, which explained 29%. Fatigue were directly influeced by BMI, life-style, perceived health status. which explained 41%. Duration of arthritis were directly influeced by life-style, past exercise behavior, BMI, which explained 6%. In conclusion, important variables for physical fitness were life-style, and variable affecting exercise participation were life-style. Perceived self-efficacy of exercise was a significant predictor of exercise score. BMI, Life-style, perceived benefits of action, family support, past exercise behavior showed direct effects on perceived self-efficacy. Therefore, disease related factor should be minimized for physical performance and well being in nursing intervention for patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and plans to promote and continue exercise should be seeked to reduce disability. In addition, Exercise program should be planned and performed by the exact evaluation of exercise according to the ability of the patients and the contents to improve the importance of exercise and self efficacy in self control program, dedicated educational program should be involved. This study suggest that the methods to reduce the disease related factors, the importance of daily life-style, recognition of benefit of exercise, and educational program to promote self efficacy should be considered in the exercise behavior promotion and nursing intervention for continous performance. The significance of this study is also thought to provide patients with chronic arthritis the specific data for maximal physical and mental well being through exercise, chronic therapeutic procedure, daily adaptation and confrontation in nursing intervention.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of a 24-week combined exercise training program in older women with hypertension. Women with hypertension who were 70 years and older were randomized into two groups: combined exercise group (CE; n = 15) and a control group (n = 15). The CE group performed a combined exercise training program four times per week for 24 weeks and the control group did not. Five factors, including body composition (percent body fat and skeletal muscle mass), health-related physical fitness, adipocytokines (interleukin-6 [IL-6] and tumor necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-α]), kidney risk factors (glomerular filtration rate [GFR] and cystatin C), and systolic and diastolic blood pressure were measured before and after the program. The findings showed that total muscle mass, health-related physical fitness factors, and GFR increased significantly in the CE group compared to those in the control. Additionally, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and IL-6, TNF-α, and cystatin C levels in the CE group decreased significantly after the intervention. In contrast, total muscle mass decreased significantly and blood pressure remained unchanged in the control group. These results suggest that CE training may positively impact circulating levels of adipocytokines and cystatin C and improve physical fitness levels in elderly women with hypertension. Therefore, CE training helps to prevent renal disease and improve health-related physical fitness, eventually leading to a better quality of life.
