The animal industry must be environmentally sound to ensure its long-term sustainable growth. Livestock wastes mostly manure, can be a valuable resource as well as a potential hazard to environment. The first option of manure management is developing an 'environmentally sound' feeding program and feeds so there are less excreted nutrients that need to be managed. Once the manure is produced it can be best utilized as a fertilizer of a soil conditioner. In many countries the amount of manure that can be spread on land depends on the nutrient requirements of the crop being grown. The laws specify maximum application rates and not animal stocking rates. Farmer who reduce the N and P component of manure can release pressure on the environment without having to reduce the number of animals. There are alternative system for housing and manure treatment which generate manure that are easier to handle and have less pollutants or more economic value. Treated animal waste may also be used as a feedstuff or fuel source. Most of the options of waste management result in increased costs to implement. It is necessary to assess the economics in order to find an acceptable compromise between the increased costs and the benefit to the environment. Animal welfare is also becoming more and more of an issue and it will lead to systems where animals are kept in less confined environment. The new system will have a great impact in the waste management system in the future.

To study the importance of family meals in adolescents, 251 middle school students were surveyed through a questionnaire on their family meal patterns, dietary behaviors, food intake, and life satisfaction. The family meals were defined as "meals with all family members living together" by 62.2% of the students. For the frequency of family meals, 42.2% of the students replied having family meals "More than once a day". A common reason for the difficulty in having a family meal was a "lack of time" (73.3% of the students). Students tended to respond that they would be most fond in having meals with entire family members with traditional Korean food. Having more frequent family meals was found to benefit both individual and familial dietary behavior. In terms of food intake according to the frequency of family meals, the group having frequent family meals consumed significantly more rice, tofu, legumes, meats, fishes, eggs, green vegetables, seaweeds, fruits, milk, and milk products. This indicates that students can achieve a balanced diet through family meals. In terms of emotional status, the group having more frequent family meals showed a higher satisfaction with their daily life, health, nutritional status, and care from their relatives. In terms of personal mental status, the group having more frequent family meals was also found to be more effective at controlling undesirable emotions such as loneliness, indignation, and lethargy. As a result of this study, students in the group having more frequent family meals were found to have a positive dietary behavior, a balanced nutrition, a higher life satisfaction, and a more stable mental status. This result is useful as nutritional and educational information in schools to impress upon the public the importance of family meals for adolescents.

The aim of this study is to investigate the awareness and satisfaction level of school meal services by elementary school students and their parents. Approximately 97.2% of student-subjects have agreed on the necessity of a free meal service for school lunch; 44.3% of student-subjects voiced the need to provide free meal services in order to eliminate discrimination of low-income students. Over one-third of student-subjects (36.7%) cited nutrition as the main benefit of providing a free meal service. The majority of parent-subjects (95.1%) have recognized the need for a free meal service in school; approximately 37.3% of parent-subjects responded to need the free meal service in order to eliminate the discrimination of impoverished students. Both student- and parent-subjects expressed a high level of satisfaction with the quality of ingredients and the type of soup/nutrition provided. Student-subjects insisted on better food hygiene and a new menu, but cited the noisy cafeteria as a problem associated with school meal services. In addition, approximately 56.5% of student-subjects responded to the need for nutritional education in school. Parent-subjects were primarily concerned with hygiene regarding the preparation of school meal services, noting the temperature of foods as the biggest problem in school meal services. The majority of parent-subjects (88.1%) responded to the need for the nutritional education in school. Results of this survey indicate that school meal services can be improved by increasing menu options and increasing food hygiene.

목 적: 영양지원팀(nutritional support team, NST)은 영양부족이 위험성이 있는 환자에게 영양을 효율적으로 제공하기 위해 운영된다. 미숙아는 소화, 흡수의 미숙, 비축된 영양의 부족, 요구량의 증가, 다양한 질환에의 이환으로 인하여 영양 불균형의 위험성이 높으며 경구영양이 완전히 진행되기까지는 총정맥영양(total parenteral nutrition, TPN)에 의존하므로 적극적인 영양지원을 필요로 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 NST 활동이 신생아중환자실에 입원하여 TPN을 투여 받는 미숙아들의 임상경과에 미치는 영향을 검토함으로써 NST의 임상적 의의를 평가하고자 하였다. 방 법: 2003년 7월에서 2006년 7월까지 분당서울대 병원 신생아중환자실에 입원하여 TPN을 시행 받은 미숙아 48명을 대상으로 하여 후향적으로 의무기록을 검토하였다. 대상 환아들을 NST 활동 여부에 따라 각각 NST 설립 이전 시기인 2003년 7월에서 2005년 2월까지 입원한 미숙아군과 NST 활동 시기인 2005년 3월에서 2006년 7월 사이에 입원한 미숙아군으로 나누어 각 군에서의 임상 지표들을 비교분석하여 NST 활동이 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 통계학적 분석을 위해 Mann-Whitney 검정과 Fisher's exact test를 적용하였고, pvalue 0.05 미만을 통계적으로 유의하다고 판정하였다. 결 과: 대상 환아 48명(남아 27명, 여아 21명)의 재태기간은 평균 $28^{+1}$주(범위: 25주~$32^{+6}$주), 출생체중은 평균 1,008.5${\pm}$242.5 g (범위: 520~1,490 g), 재원기간은 평균 74${\pm}$40일(범위: 26~274일)이었다. 영양사, 약사 또는 NST가 환아의 TPN에 개입하기까지의 기간이 NST 활동 전에는 14.8${\pm}$21.0일 소요되었으나 NST 활동 이후 0.5${\pm}$2.0일로 유의하게 감소하였다(p=0.000). TPN 투여기간은 NST 활동 전의 41.5${\pm}$26.2일에서 NST 활동 후에는 20.5${\pm}$16.6일로 유의하게 감소하였다(p=0.001). TPN을 통해 투여된 칼로리는 NST 활동 전후로 각각 88.1${\pm}$19.0 kcal/kg/day와 98.8${\pm}$8.2 kcal/kg/day로서 유의하게 상승하였고(p=0.016), 단백 투여량은 각각 2.74${\pm}$0.50 g/kg/day와 3.36 g/kg${\pm}$0.34 g/kg/day (p=0.000), 지방 투여량은 각각 2.53${\pm}$0.86 g/kg/day와 3.40 g/kg${\pm}$0.52 g/kg/day로서 두 군 간에 유의한 차이를 보였다(p=0.000). 환아들의 금식기간이 NST 활동 전후 각각 10.5${\pm}$11.3일과 5.9${\pm}$7.3일로서 NST 활동 시작 후 유의하게 감소하였으며(p=0.017), 환자들이 완전 경장영양으로 진행하기까지 소요된 기간도 각각 44.7${\pm}$26.1일과 24.0${\pm}$17.6일로 NST 활동 후 의미 있게 감소하였다 (p=0.001). 항생제 투여기간도 NST 활동 전의 34.8${\pm}$30.8일에서 NST 활동과 더불어 15.6${\pm}$15.2일로 유의하게 감소하였다(p=0.007). 결 론: 신생아중환자실에 입원한 미숙아에게 있어 NST 활동에 의한 적극적인 영양지원은 적절한 영양을 공급하여 영양상태를 개선하는 측면과 더불어 임상적 측면에서도 장점이 있으므로 미숙아의 영양지원에 있어 NST 활동이 갖는 의의가 크다고 하겠다.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Available data suggest that seasonal changes may influence the nutritional status and overall health of elderly individuals. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the effects of seasonal changes and related factors on energy and nutrient intake of older adults. SUBJECTS/METHODS: Individuals aged 65 years or over were prospectively enrolled in this single-center study (male: 11, female: 20). Data were collected between May 2013 and February 2014 during winter, spring, summer and autumn. Food consumption and biochemical parameters were taken during each season to assess the seasonal nutrition status of the elderly. Upon analysis of biochemical parameters (retinol, vitamin D and vitamin C), an high-performance liquid chromatography device was utilized whereas an Immulite 2000 device was utilized during analysis of serum folic acid and parathyroid hormone. RESULTS: Fruit, fat, egg and bread consumption varied seasonally in males and females (P < 0.05). During winter, daily energy intake was found to be greater than in other seasons in males (557 kcal) and females (330 kcal) (P < 0.05). Additionally, carbohydrates, vegetable protein, n-3 fatty acid and sodium intake increased in winter, while the n-6/n-3 ratio increased in summer among males (P < 0.05). Dietary fiber and sodium intake in winter, vitamin C, iron and zinc intake in spring, and cholesterol, retinol, vitamin D and niacin intake in autumn were found to be higher in females when compared to other seasons (P < 0.05). Serum parathyroid hormone level was higher in winter, and vitamin D level was higher in autumn in both genders (P < 0.05). In males, blood folic acid level was higher in winter, while vitamin C level was higher in females, and there was no seasonal variation in retinol concentration (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Food consumption and biochemical parameters showed significant seasonal variations in older adults. It is not clear if nutrition plans in older adults will benefit from consideration of seasonal changes in eating habits.

In order to investigate the ecological factors affecting milk intake frequency of adolescents, the questionnaire survey was conducted with 929 middle and high school students living in Chungnam urban area through October and November 2004. The subjects consumed milk 8.6$\pm$6.7 times per week, other beverages 4.4$\pm$4.1 times per week and drinking water 3.7$\pm$2.1 cups per day. Of the students 77.3% took balanced meals, 72.8% ate regularly and 36.2% ate adequate amount. About 61% had breakfast everyday and nearly a half students snacked once a day. Nutritional knowledge scores about milk was 7.2$\pm$1.7 and milk attitude scores was 28.1$\pm$6.5. The subjects spent daily 1.8$\pm$1.1, 1.9$\pm$1.1, and 1.0$\pm$0.5 hours for computer use, TV watching and exercise, respectively. Milk intake frequencies were positively correlated with excercise, snack frequency, meal balance and regularity, breakfast frequency, food attitude score and milk preference, while showed negative correlationships with TV watching and computer use. Intake frequency of fruit-tasted and chocolate milk showed inverse correlation with nutritional knowledge. Subjects without either school store or vending machine took milk more frequently than those with one or both did. Of the correlated variables, milk preference was the most important influencing factor to milk intake frequency according to the stepwise linear regression analysis, which presented other 5 important influencing factors as food attitude, school vending facilities, excercise, snacking frequency and watching TV. In conclusion, the improvement of milk preference is the most important and effective way to promote milk consumption in adolescents. The favorite ways of drinking milk, nutritional benefit of milk, healthy beverage and good snacking should be taught in nutrition education. Also physical activities should be recommended to students rather than watching TV, computer use and vending facilities selling soft drinks should be limited to be established inside school.

An explanatory survey was conducted to assess preference and consumption pattern of horticultural species, their sources, location-wise planting preferences and diversity of these species in the rural homestead forest of the offshore island of Bangladesh. Assessment was done through multistage random sampling. Based on homestead size respondents were categorized into small (<0.05 ha), medium (0.05-0.25 ha) and large (>0.25 ha) and twenty from each category were selected randomly for the study. The study revealed that most of the farmer (75.5%) preferred to plant fruit tree species for future plantation followed by timber species (62.2%). But fruit-bearing plants were being gradually replaced by some exotic timber species such as Swietenia mahagoni, Acacia auriculiformis, Tectona grandis, Eucalyptus spp., etc. Diversity and abundance of fruit species was found higher in almost all homestead. A total of 41 horticultural species were identified and seven horticultural species among them were recognized as the most preferred ones in the study area. Consumption pattern was chiefly to meet the nutritional demand and to gain a quick monetary benefit. Average annual income from horticultural species was 7,183.33 Taka (US$102).

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify factors that influence dietary compliance in patients with liver cirrhosis. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design and was conducted with a survey of 141 patients in liver cirrhosis who were treated at D-university hospital in Busan. For data analysis, descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and a multiple regression were performed using SPSS/WIN 20.0 Program for windows. Results: The mean score was 3.47 in dietary compliance. Dietary compliance had a positive correlation with self-efficacy, perceived-benefit medical staff support, age, drink or not but had a negative correlation with perceived barrier. As a result of multiple regression analysis, self-efficacy and perceived-benefits explained 30.1% (F=7.69, p<.001) of the variance of dietary compliance. Conclusion: Dietary compliance was suggested to consider self-efficacy and perceived-benefits when developing a nutritional education programs for patients with liver cirrhosis.
