The purpose of the study was to investigate jean consumption among middle-aged Korean women and the characteristics of consumers as potential jean consumers. The data were collected from the survey of 238 Korean women aged 45 to 64 years old. The respondents prefer outlet store to other retail outlets and wear jeans mainly for travel, grocery shopping, and outing. The main reason for not wearing jeans is body change, which leads to poor fit in abdomen and waist area. The sample was clustered into two groups based on interest in jeans: high-interest and low-interest group. From the examination of group differences, the high-interest group rated conformity/brand reputation, scarcity, and attractiveness of appearance significantly higher compared to the low-interest group among the five clothing benefits pursued. No difference was found in obesity and body satisfaction. Group differences were found in recent purchase, price, number of jeans owned, and frequency of wearing jeans. The results suggest the characteristics of the potential jean market among middle-aged women in Korea. Implications are discussed.

본 연구에서는 자기공명영상(magnetic resonance imaging, MRI)을 이용하여 중년 및 초고령의 허혈성 뇌혈관 호발 부위를 분석하여 임상에 기초자료로 제시하고자 하였다. 2006년 5월부터 2008년 1월까지 허혈성 뇌혈관 질환으로 자기공명영상검사를 받은 69 명(평균나이: 44.2세, 남: 43명, 여: 26명)의 중년 환자군과 129 명(평균나이: 84.7세, 남: 58명, 여: 71명)의 초고령 환자군에 대해 후향적으로 분석하였다. 뇌혈관 부위는 앞교통 동맥(anterior communication artery, ACoA), 뒤교통 동맥(posterior communication artery, PCoA), 앞대뇌 동맥(anterior cerebral artery, ACA), 중간대뇌 동맥(middle cerebral artery, MCA), 뒤대뇌 동맥(posterior cerebral artery, PCA), 속목 동맥(internal carotid artery, ICA), 온목 동맥(common carotid artery, CCA), 그리고 뇌바닥 동맥(basilar artery, BA)으로 나누었으며, BA를 제외한 모든 혈관들의 허혈성 뇌혈관 위치는 좌, 우, 양쪽으로 분류하였다. 그 결과 허혈성 뇌혈관은 중년 환자군에서 남성이 여성보다 많았고 남성, 여성 모두 MCA에서 가장 많이 발생하였으며 초고령 환자군에서는 좌, 우, 양측의 혈관에서 고른 발생빈도와 여성이 남성보다 많았으며 남성은 ICA, 여성은 MCA에서 많이 호발하고 있었다. 특히, MCA에서 초고령의 남자환자군보다 중년의 남자 환자군에서 많이 발생하고 있었다. 이러한 허혈성 뇌혈관 호발 부위의 분석은 임상적 진단과 치료에 도움을 줄 수 있으리라 사료된다.
