Nutrient intake: Intake of the majority of nutrients was below the recommended allowances, especially for energy, protein, calcium and iron. The energy input ratio of carbohydrate: protein: fat was 73.1-80.9. 13.3-15.8: 4.5-11.5, showing very heavy dependence on carbohydrates for energy needs. The contribution of animal protein was 24.3% of total protein intake, indicating an improper protein diet.

Objectives : To examine the factors associated with the use of the prenatal care services provided by the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family by married migrant women in Korea. Methods : We employed data from the 2015 Nationwide Multiculturale Family Survey. We selected 19- to 39-year-old married immigrant women with children aged 5 years or less for the study (N=1,579). We included four predisposing factors, six enabling factors, and two need factors based on the Andersen's Health-care Utilization Model. Results : Only one third of married immigrant women(31.6%) used prenatal care service and 45.9% of them reported prenatal care service needs. Area of residence, country of birth, and Korean language proficiency were significantly associated with prenatal care service use. Further, age, country of birth, length of time in Korea, household income, and discrimination experience were significantly associated. Conclusions : Findings suggest the need to develop strategies to improve accessibility to prenatal care service use especially for married immigrant women from developing countries, low-income families, having poor Korean language proficiency or having discrimination experience.

유소년 약시환자의 생활환경특성을 알아보기 위해 2013년 9월 2일부터 11월 23일까지 약시진단을 받은 만 3세에서 12세의 안과 내원환자의 보호자 104명을 대상으로 설문조사하여 결과를 분석하였으며, 약시 진단시기는 만 4세(28.8%)때 가장 많이 진단을 한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 보호자 연령이 높을수록 약시 진단시기가 늦은 것으로 나타났으며(p<.01), 부모의 교육수준이 높을수록 약시 진단시기가 빠른 것으로 나타났다(p<.05). 위의 결과에 따라 유소년약시의 최초 진단시기와 생활환경 특성이 서로 밀접한 관련이 있음을 알 수 있으며 사회 환경적 요인과 생활환경 특성이 관련 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 향후 지역의 소외계층이나 직업, 연령, 학력의 지형적인 분포에 따라 적극적인 계몽과 사회제도적 개선으로 국민 안건강 향상에 디딤돌이 되었으면 한다.

This study investigated the needs to improve the quality of foodservice management in community child centers (CCCs), in accordance to the area where the CCC was located. The people in charge of foodservice management of 466 community child centers undertook a web survey, between July to August 2016. Most centers used menus from the Headquarters of Community Child Center (50.0%) or Center for Children's Foodservice Management (34.1%). Factor analysis and multiple regression analysis were conducted to assess the requirement for improving the quality of foodservice management at the CCCs. Four factors were analyzed: 'food material and facility management', 'administration management', 'menu management', and 'human resources management'. In large cities, 'administration management' and 'menu management' were found to affect quality improvement. In small cities, none of the factors assessed were effective in improvement. 'human resources management' had a significant influence on improving the quality of the foodservice in rural areas. The results of this study show that there was a difference in the quality improvement of the foodservice management in the centers, with respect to the location of the center. Therefore, this study can be used as basic data to establish the support policy for improving the quality of foodservice management in community child centers.

Background: This study explored perspectives of health-care providers on childhood cancer treatment in Kenya. Materials and Methods: A self-administered questionnaire was completed by 104 health-care providers in January and February 2013. Results: Seventy six percent of the health-care providers believed cancer to be curable. More doctors than other health-care providers had this positive opinion (p=0.037). The majority of health-care providers (92%) believed that most children with cancer will not be able to finish their treatment due to financial difficulties. They considered that prosperous highly-educated parents adhere better with treatment (88%) and that doctors adhere better with treatment for prosperous highly-educated parents (79%). According to 74% of health-care providers, quality of care is better for prosperous highly-educated parents (74%). Most health-care providers reported giving more explanation (71%), work with greater accuracy (70%) and use less difficult vocabulary (55%) to prosperous more educated families. Only 34% of health-care providers reported they feel more empathy towards patients from prosperous families. Reasons for non-adherence with the protocol according to health-care providers are: family refuses drugs (85%), inadequate supply of drugs at pharmacy (79%), child looks ill (75%), and financial difficulties of parents (69%). Conclusions: Health-care providers' health beliefs and attitudes differ for patients with families having high versus low socio-economic backgrounds.

본 연구는 전라북도 지역아동센터 현황과 실태 및 서비스 수준을 분석하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 전라북도 지역아동센터는 2004년 이전 37개소 16.1%였으나 해마다 20~40개소씩 증가하여 왔다. 현재 지역아동센터는 신고제이기 때문에 정부지원이 시작된 이래 개소수가 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 지역아동센터의 난립을 억제하고, 신설되는 지역아동센터의 경우는 일정수준 이상의 환경을 구비하도록 하기 위하여 신고제에서 허가제로의 전환을 적극 검토할 필요가 있다. 둘째, 전라북도 지역아동센터 225개소의 이용아동 총 수 6, 144명 중 일반아동이 1,711명 27.8%를 차지하고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 평가지표에서도 이용 아동 및 출석 영역의 점수가 낮게 나타났다. 일반아동과 취약계층 아동의 통합적 보호라는 점에서 바람직할 수 있으나, 지역아동센터의 정체성을 확보하고 사업목적에 맞는 운영을 할 수 있도록 세부 규정을 보완할 필요가 있다. 세째, 지역사회 유관기관 및 인적자원 활용 영역의 점수가 다른 지표 항목에 비교해서 낮은 점수를 보였다. 이는 전라북도 지역아동센터의 대부분이 자원봉사자는 활용하고 있지만 지역사회 연계사업이 활발하게 진행되지 못하기 때문이다. 시 군 구가 지역사회를 대상으로 지역아동센터의 기능과 역할을 홍보하고 지역의 전문 인력과 네트워크를 구축할 수 있도록 지원할 필요가 있다.
