This study was conducted with 60 adult males who visited the Atomi Cooperative Clinic(Atomi Dermatology/Pediatrics/Oriental Clinic) in Seoul between May 2003 and December 2004; they were divided into three groups, each of which consisted of 20 persons, according to the level of erythma and then each group was subdivided to consist of ten according to whether they received skin treatment and care. The standard care provided to two groups involved topical steroids and oriental medicines prescribed by a dermatologist and a oriental doctor, respectively. 5th-grade topical steroid ointment was applied to the face and 3rd-grade to the limbs; a oriental medicine was administered in a lukewarm state half an hour after meals three times a day. To determine how special and systematic skin treatment and care was helpful in treating atopy, a skin treatment system was applied to the experimental group while the control group was provided with standard care alone. By using Mexameter(MX18) manufactured by ck-mpa as a measuring tool, the inflammation level was observed at the right antecubital space during each visit to the clinic. In view of the re suits, introduction of the systemic skin care for A. D to legitimate treatment provided by a medical institution is expected to be an appropriate supplementary treatment for adult patients who suffer from frequent recurrence of atopic dermatitis.

본 연구는 새로운 '혼밥'문화에 대한 중립적인 관점의 이해가 필요하여 직장인들의 '혼밥' 경험과 '혼밥' 유지 과정을 설명하는 실체이론을 개발하고자 하였다. 이를 위해서 서울과 경기지역의 직장에 다니는 직장인이면서 일주일에 전체 식사의 70% 이상 '혼밥'을 하고 5년 이상 '혼밥'을 유지하고 있으며 자발적인 선택으로 '혼밥'을 하고 있는 남녀 10명을 대상으로 심층면접을 실시하였고 수집된 자료는 질적연구 방법 중의 하나인 근거이론방법을 적용하여 자료를 분석하였다. 연구결과, '혼밥'을 유지하는 과정에 대한 패러다임 모형이 도출되었다. '혼밥' 유지 과정에서 인과적 조건은 '조율을 시도하지 않음'으로, 중심현상은 '효율 우선의 욕구를 좇음'으로 드러났다. 맥락적 조건은 '치열한 경쟁 분위기', '조직문화의 약화', '개인주의 문화의 확산'으로, 중재적 조건은 '개인의 성격적 특성과 정서경험', '조직문화 없는 직무특성'으로 나타났다. 중심현상에 대한 참여자의 작용/상호작용 전략은 '내적갈등을 수용하기', '자율적으로 행동하기', '매체를 통해 관계 찾기', '피상적 관계 거리두기'로 나타났다. 결과는 '탐색의 시간을 향유함', '자기돌봄에 충실함', '고독한 편리주의자가 됨', '균형의 필요를 알아차림'으로 드러났다. 핵심범주는 '효율 우선을 따라 자신에게 충실하며 함께함의 중요성을 알아감'으로 밝혀졌다. '혼밥'을 시작하면서 시간효율을 저울질하는 단계, 외부시선에서 자유롭지 못하여 불안한 갈등단계, 자신이 선택한 '혼밥' 행위를 계획하고 합리화하는 조정단계, '혼밥'을 하면서도 '함께함'의 중요성을 알아가는 균형단계를 거치면서 혼밥을 유지하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 직장인의 '혼밥'경험과 '혼밥' 유지 과정에 대한 통합적 탐색을 토대로 새로운 '혼밥'문화에 대한 이해를 도모하였고 우리 사회가 새로운 '혼밥'문화를 수용하고 다양한 문화의 공존을 인정할 수 있도록 돕고자 하였다.

This study aimed to find the differences in weight control status and eating behavior of satisfied and dissatisfied female high school students regarding their own body shape. The participants consisted of 238 students at two female high schools in Nonsan-si, Chungnam-do in May of 2008. Self-assessment evaluated present body shape and ideal body shape they would like to have by providing silhouette drawings. The subjects were divided into two groups, 'satisfied' and 'dissatisfied', according to the differences between present body shape and ideal body shape. In the distribution of subjects according to body mass index, 100% of overweight, 97.0% of normal weight and 48.7% of underweight belonged to the dissatisfied group. There were significant differences in weight control and eating behavior between dissatisfied and satisfied groups in terms of frequency and reasons of conducting weight control behavior, body weight return after weight reduction, skipping breakfast and consuming fast food. The satisfied group was two times more likely to not conduct weight control behaviors compared to the dissatisfied group. The main reason for trying to control weight differed according to the group; the reason was feeling fat in the dissatisfied group and desiring to be healthy in the satisfied group. The percentage of subjects that returned to their original weights after weight reduction was 5 times higher in the dissatisfied group. The percentages of subjects that regularly skip breakfast and consume fast food were both higher in the dissatisfied group than in the satisfied group. The dissatisfied group responded 'eating alone' more frequently among nine binge eating behaviors compared to the satisfied group. Both groups, however, did not show any difference in overeating of meals, eating speed, intake frequency of regular meals, food preference, preferred cooking method, carbonated beverage intake and snack eating behavior. In summary, the dissatisfied group tried more unnecessary body weight reduction and had poor eating behavior. Accordingly, to correct the biased perception of body shape by the majority of female high school students, the values of our society should change toward the pursuit of beauty of health.

The purpose of this study is to search how to promote health and improve nutrition and health care of the elderly people in rural area. Behaviors for health promotion and habits against health risk were surveyed. Dietary management was analyzed for surveyed nutrient intake by 24 hr -recall method. 242 subjects were collected in 12 cities or counties in Gyeonggi Province and 20 elderly people (10 male and 10 female) were selected out of 1 village in each district. Questionnaire for health behavior and dietary management was carried out by trained interviewers. Statistical analyses were made by SAS (version 8.1) and Chi-square tests and General Linear Models were used. Characteristics of the elderly people were 61-74 year-olds (68.2%), elementary school educated (78.4%), with spouse (51.7%), monthly living cost of 500-1,000 thousand won(43.4%), and monthly pocket money of 50-100 or 100-200 thousand won(33.5%, 26.5%). 41.4% of the subjects checked up medical examination regularly. The alcohol drinking status was significantly different according to gender: high no-drink rate of female (52.5%) and low no-drink rate of male (25.6%). Kinds of disease were different according to gender: higher proportion of cardiovascular disease(46.3%) and diabetes mellitus(8.1 %) in male and joint lumbago neuralgia(44.4%) and osteoporosis(8.6%) in female. Gastrointestinal complaints were nausea (69.0%) and chronic indigestion (17.8%). Constipation (12.0%) and vomiting (4.3%) were more frequent in female. Dietary management was good (3 meals per day: 93.4%., dining with family: 72.4%, regular mealtime: 72.4%, and 3-4 times of snacks per week: 44.9%) except side dish taking of 3-4 kinds only. However, almost one-third of the female elderly ate alone (30.6%) which was well compared with one-fifth of the male (19.7%). And food and nutrients intake were not significantly different according to gender except that male elderly's intake of energy and protein was lower than that of female's. The surveyed subjects had no difficulties in Activities of Daily Living (ADL), but some female elderly had some difficulties with Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) like working at home, using transport, and going shopping. These results suggest that low quality of life linked with low economic status of the rural elderly and that congregate meal at village hall would be required for the female elderly eating alone. For the undernourished male elderly, it would be needed to provide snacks and to establish nutrition and health surveillance system.

The objective of the this study was to identify the potential relationship between eating breakfast together as a family and the nutritional status among Korean adolescents based on the 2013~2015 Korean National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey data. This study investigated 1,300 adolescents ranging in agee from twelve to eighteen years-old. In this study, according to their eating breakfast together as a family or skipping breakfast, we classified the subjects into the eating breakfast together as a family (EBF group) (male=379, female=295), eating breakfast alone (EBA group) (male=177, female=169) and skipping breakfast (SB group) (male=152, female=128). Both male and female, age in the EBF group was lower than those of the EBA and SB group (p<0.0001, respectively). In the male, the EBF group exhibited significantly higher fiber (p=0.0168) and potassium density (p=0.0065) and lower beverage intake (% energy) (p=0.0040) than the EBA and SB groups. No difference was observed the proportion of subjects who practiced a healthy diet between three groups, however, the EBF and EBA groups had a smaller proportion of subjects who were in a condition of hypo-nutrition compared to the SB group (p<0.0001, respectively). The present findings suggest that the practice of eating breakfast together as a family in adolescents may bean important consideration in relation to micro-nutrient intake status.

Tomatoes are considered as one of the main components of daily meals in most households. Thus, it is important to invest in studies enhancing their yield and nutritional value. The study evaluated the effect of wood vinegar (WV) on tomato under greenhouse conditions. Data on fruit number, fruit weight, and plant height were recorded. Total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant activity of tomato were determined using the Folin-Ciocalteu reagent and 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay, respectively. FRR-CF+500x-WV significantly increased the fruit number (86.11%) and fruit weight (81.78%) over the control. Results were comparable to HRR-CF+250x-WV, indicating that conventional fertilizer and WV may have synergistic effect on each other. TPC and scavenging effect on DPPH radical was improved by 250x-WV application. The increase in the phenolic compounds can be attributed to WV as a direct source or as a factor triggering the plants to produce more secondary metabolites with the purpose of increasing natural defenses. The significant effect obtained by applying the full recommended rate of conventional fertilizer on the carotenoid content was due to the availability of the major nutrients needed by the plant. Correlation analysis showed that carotenoids have negative correlation with TPC and DPPH. However, TPC and DPPH showed that these are positively correlated with each other. Tomatoes are excellent source of antioxidants associated with the reduction of some human diseases and improved health. The results provided evidence that WV alone and/or its combination with conventional fertilizers has favorable effects on the quality of tomato.
