Clothing fitness is strongly required in the apparel industry, and draping is an effective tool to increase fitness to the wearers. A more sophisticated and systematic information of the somatotype, accordingly, is necessary for better cress form design. This study was performed to provide fundamental data on middle aged women's upper torso for dress form designers and pattern makers by classifying the somatotype based on each individual's lateral view, and analyzing the characteristics of their somatotype. Data were analyzed by factor analysis, cluster analysis, analysis of variance. Factor analysis was used to 23 items from photometric measurment and cluster analysis was applied for classification of upper torso forms. Through cluster analysis using 5 factor scores, 3 somatotypes were categorized from th lateral view 1) Type I was straight somatotype in which the plumb line passes throught the lobe of the ear, the shoulder joing and the mid abdominal region laterally. This type of woman was slender and shorter than average. 2) Type II was bending somatotype in which the upper portion of upper torso is bent forward. This type of woman was taller and fatter than average. 3) Type III was swayback somatotype in which the upper portion of protruding point on the back is bent forward but the lower portion of protruding point had characteristic of turning over somatotype. This type of woman had storter length on the front and longer lenght on the back, slender type and flat chest.

This study was carried out to assess the perception of decisional balance of Korean women toward mammography screening. From Dec. 20, 1998 to Apr. 30, 1999, a samples of 1,903 subjects were selected from 7 metropolitan areas and 6 provinces of Korea. Data was collected using Rakowski et al's decisional balance scale to measure the decisional balance regarding a woman's adoption of mammography screening and to assess the woman's current stages of adoption of mammography. The classification of women according to the stage of adoption of mammography was 54.9 % in precontemplation, 31.9 % in contemplation, 7.8 % in action, and 5.5 % in maintenance. The mean difference of pros, cons, and the decisional balance by the stage of mammography adoption were statistically significant. There were significant mean differences between the stages of adoption according to a woman's experience with and intention for mammography and the pros score, the cons score, and the decisional balance score. The behavioral portion of stage of mammography adoption provides a further level of discrimination. Results provide the empirical evidence for the Transtheoretical model.

본 연구는 지지면에 따른 발목균형훈련이 비만중년여성의 고유수용성감각, 균형 및 근력 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 연구에 동의한 중년여성 30명중 불안정한 지지면에서 훈련을 시행한 실험군I의 15명과 안정 지지면에서 훈련을 시행한 실험군II의 15명에게 총 6주간 매회 30분씩 훈련하였다. 훈련효과를 알아보기 위해 훈련 전 고유수용성은 Dualer IQ 디지털 경사계로 검사를 시행하였고 균형은 BT4로 검사하고 근력은 도수근력검사기로 검사를 하고 훈련 후 다시 재측정하였다. 이에 실험군I,II 모두 고유수용, 균형, 근력검사에서 유의한 차이를 보였다. 이에 불안정한 지지면과 안정된 지지면에서의 발목균형운동은 비만중년여성의 고유수용성, 균형, 근력이 향상되는 프로그램이다.

본 연구의 목적은 6주간 중년여성을 대상으로 SUKI 중재 프로그램이 윗입술근피에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보고자 진행되었다. 실험대상자는 총 20명이었으며, 6주간 주 3회 씩 안면부의 윗입술 근피에 대한 Pattern T1, Pattern T2, Pattern T3, Pattern T4의 SUKI 중재프로그램을 실시하였고, 결과는 다음과 같았다. 윗입술근피의 군내 비교에서는 일부이지만 실험군에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 따라서, SUKI 중재 프로그램이 윗입술근피의 탄력 향상에 일부 도움을 줄 수 있는 것으로 나타났다(p<.05). 본 연구에서는 제한적이지만, 중년여성의 안면부에 위치하고 있는 윗입술근피의 탄력 감소 문제가 입 주위에 각종 주름을 발생시켜 여성의 외모에 대한 자신감을 잃게 하고 있다는 것을 근간으로 SUKI 중재 프로그램을 활용하였다. 또한 이것은 정상적인 안면근피가 영향을 끼치는 용모에 대한 의미로서, 중년여성의 생애주기에 맞는 적정한 안면근피의 관리에 의한 용모관리를 할 수 있는 일부방법을 제시하고자 하였다. 결론적으로 추후 다양한 실험자들에게 여성의 얼굴 피부미용과 주름을 예방하고 입 주위 안면근피의 탄력향상에 도움을 줄 수 있는 방법에 대한 새로운 연구자료로 활용될 수 있기를 기대하고자 한다.

Objective: Our purpose was to review the findings in patients with xanthelasma and compare the patients to normal persons in respect of serum lipid levels. Methods: Fifty-one patients with xanthelasma were reviewed. Results: Mean age was 51 years in man and 51 years in woman. The ratio of male to female patients was 1:2.7. Significant difference of serum HDL-cholesterol level was found between patients with normal lipid level and normolipidemic control subjects. Conclusion: Xanthelasma palpebrarum occurs frequently in middle-aged women and HDL-cholesterol level of patients with xanthelasma was lower than normolipidemic control subjects.
