We report the case of a 14-year-old girl who visited the emergency room because of suprapubic discomfort and sudden acute urinary retention. She did not have any significant medical and surgical history, and her neurological examinations were all normal. Urinary catheterization led to the passage of 500 mL urine. Abdominal ultrasonography showed a hematocolpos that was compressing the urinary bladder. Gynecologic history taking revealed that the patient has not had menarche yet. Therefore, a cruciate incision was performed and her urination became normal. As the surgical outcome after adequate hymenotomy for imperforate hymen is usually good, the diagnosis of imperforate hymen is important. However, this condition is easily missed in the clinic because the first physician visited by the patient rarely takes a detailed gynecologic history or performs appropriate physical examinations. Although rare, imperforate hymen should be considered as a cause of acute urinary retention in the adolescence period. If an adolescent girl presents with abdominal pain and voiding dysfunction, a detailed gynecologic history and appropriate physical examinations of the genital introitus should be performed.

Painful legs and moving toes (PLMT) syndrome is characterized by spontaneous movements of the digits and pain in one or both lower extremities. Of the reported cases, a majority of the patients was female, and the mean age of onset was 58 years. Only one pediatric case has been reported so far. Herein, we report the first adolescent case of PLMT in Korea. A 16-year-old girl complained of tingling pain in the left leg and involuntary movement of the ipsilateral great toe one month after a second untethering surgery. Three years ago, she had undergone untethering surgery to correct lipomeningomyelocele at the S2 level of the conus medullaris. At that time, she was diagnosed with polyradiculopathy at the left L5 level with axonal involvement. We diagnosed her with PLMT syndrome and prescribed gabapentin. Her symptoms diminished within a day. Complete relief from involuntary movement of the toe was achieved within four months. PLMT is a rare syndrome but it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of children and adolescents with limb pain and spontaneous movement in their toes.

본 연구는 만 11세에서 18세 사이에 해당하는 소년원 여학생과 대학병원 소아치과에 내원한 동일한 연령대 환자들의 구강 건강상태를 조사하여 차이점을 비교하고자 시행되었다. 최근 5년간 누적된 소년원 여학생과 아주대학교병원 소아치과에 내원한 환자의 치과기록을 수집하여 치과치료에 분석하였다. 소년원 여학생과 대학병원 환자 모두 수복치료가 가장 높은 비중을 차지하였다. 소년원 여학생에서는 치아우식에 의한 영구치의 발거가 중,고등학교 시기에 점차 증가한 반면에 대학병원 환자에서는 영구치의 발거 비율이 적었다. 현재 수용되어있는 만 11부터 18세까지의 소년원 여학생 130명과 최근 1년간 대학 병원 소아치과에 내원한 환자에 대해 구강검진을 시행하여 우식, 상실, 충전 치아 수를 검사하여 구강건강상태를 조사하였다. 우식경험영구치지수가 대학병원에서 4.15인 반면에 소년원 여학생에서는 7.53로 약 2배 높았다.

This study developed safety clothing that is essential for adolescent to protect their bodies from accidents, pursue activities and individuality. Therefore, the developed safety clothing was first based on international standards, while changing design to emphasize creativity, activity, and functionality. Two suits of boy's clothes and a girl's suit were developed as safety clothing for sportswear, along with two pairs of girl's clothes and a pair of boy's clothes for entertainment. It was confirmed that the difference in visibility was revealed by testing under different lighting conditions. Second, the survey on adolescents indicated no significant gender difference in sportswear. Round shirt+shorts for both boys and girls were the most preferred for ball game sportswear. However, there was a significant difference by gender in the design of safety clothing for entertainment. Male students preferred jump suit=cape+pants the most, and female students preferred jump suit>cape+pants in the order (p<0.05). In the safety clothes with the highest preference for entertainment, there was no gender difference. All students preferred the jump suit at the most. Checking at each school level, it was found that both middle and high school students preferred jump suit designs, and in safety clothing, middle school students preferred high-neck shirt blouse+tight skirt, and high school students preferred jump suits. Third, 35.5% responded that they would wear it more if current safety clothing is improved. This indicated the necessity of developing various safety clothing for adolescence.

Purpose: This descriptive study was to explore the factors relating to Social Physique Anxiety(SPA) in the adolescent girls(N=700). These factors included the biological(level of school[age], period of menstruation, and BMI), the sociocultural(Influence of Mass Media, [IMM], Stereotype of Ideal Female Body[SIFB], type of school, perceived figure, and ideal figure) and the BW control-related factors(experience of bodyweight [BW] control, satisfaction at the result of BW control, and motive of BW control). Method: The sample was 700 girls of the middle and high schools in Jeju-do. The data was collected by the self-reported questionnaire and processed with the SPSS Win 12.0 program. Result: 26% of the variance in SPA was explained by the biological factors(level of school) and the sociocultural factors (perceived figure, ideal figure, type of school, and IMM). SPA, IMM, and SIFB were significantly correlated with each others(r=1,65-2.92, p<.05). The mean SPA scores according to BW control-related factors were significantly different. Conclusion: This results suggest that media education is necessary to reduce or eliminate the adolescent girl's SPA. In addition, SPA needs to be considered as the important concept for the future nursing researches and interventions related to BW control.

The purpose of this study is to investigation the eating habits and health-related behaviors of adolescent students. 700 students are randomly selected in 6 high schools in Chunchon area. The most students take three meals a day. but most of girl students take less two meals a day or often go without a meal. There are the tendency that boy-students are more satisfied with their meal habits, but they have the health problems caused by irregular meals. There are more boy-students have the regularity of meal habits than girl students. and the former have the more tendency of going without a meal than the later which shows that girl-students have to give more attention to their health management. Their sleeping hours are not enough to recover the tiredness. The higher grads they are in the less time they have to take a rest. The tenth grads students are shown to feel the most serious stress. but have few opportunities to take a medical examination, which means that we have insufficiency of health education as a precautionary measures. Accordingly, it is important that teachers have to provide students with education of good meal habit which is fit to their real life. In modern times, as there are the tendency that more women participate in the social activity. we will reinforce the education that the boy-students may take active part in the health management without distinction of the roles between boy and girls-students.

Bertolotti's syndrome is a congenital abnormality in which the expanded lower lumbar transverse process articulates with the ilium or sacrum. It is an important cause of low back pain in children and adolescents that is frequently misdiagnosed. We describe the case of a 17-year-old girl with low back pain who had a 4-year history of juvenile idiopathic arthritis. She subsequently underwent plain radiography and magnetic resonance imaging and was eventually diagnosed with Bertolotti's syndrome. She was managed conservatively with 6 weeks of physical therapy and an exercise program, and her pain subsided. This case demonstrates the importance of considering anatomical and structural variants when evaluating low back pain in adolescents.

본 연구는 사회인구학적 변인에 따른 부모-자녀간의 의사소통의 차이와 가족 응집성 및 적응성의 차이, 부모-자녀간의 의사소통 변인에 따른 가족 응집성 및 적응성의 차이를 알아보고, 청소년들에게 가족내에서 바람직한 의사소통과 가족 응집성 및 적응성을 향상시키는데 필요한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하는데 그 목적이 있다. 전남지역 고등학생 425명을 대상으로 하여 얻어진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 사회인구적 변인에 따른 부모-자녀간 의사소통의 차이는 부개방형은 출생순위에 따라, 부문제형은 성별, 출생순위, 가족형태에 따라, 모개방형은 성별에 따라, 모문제형은 성별 출생순위에 따라 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 즉 남학생이 부모와 문제형 의사소통을 많이 하고 있었으며 여학생이 어머니와 개방형 의사소통을 많이 하고 있었다. 또한 장자가 부와 개방형 의사소통을 적게 하고 막내인 경우에 부모와 문제형 의사소통을 적게 하는 것으로 나타났으며 핵가족인 경우에 부와의 문제형 의사소통을 많이 하고 있었다. 둘째, 사회인구학적 변인에 따른 가족 응집성과 적응성을 살펴보면 가족 응집성은 성별과 생활정도에 따라 유의한 차이가 나타나 여학생인 경우, 가정의 생활정도가 높은 경우에 가족 응집성을 높게 지각하고 있었다. 가족 적응성은 성별 출생순위, 생활정도에서 유의한 차이가 나타났는데 여학생인 경우, 독자인 경우, 가정의 생활정도가 높은 경우에 가족 적응성이 더 높은 것으로 지각되었다. 셋째, 가족 응집성은 부와의 개방적 의사소통, 모와의 개방적 의사소통, 생활정도, 성별에 의해 영향을 받는 것으로 나타나 부모와 개방적 의사소통이 잘 이루어질수록. 생활정도가 부유할수록, 여학생이 가족 응집성을 높게 지각하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 가족 적응성은 부와의 개방적 의사소통, 모와의 개방적 의사소통, 부와의 문제형 의사소통, 생활정도 성별에 의해 영향을 받는 것으로 나타나 부모와 개방적 의사소통이 잘 이루어질수록 아버지와 역기능적인 의사소통을 하지 않을수록, 생활정도가 부유할수록, 여학생일수록 가족 적응성을 높게 지각하였다.
