Purpose : This study was undertaken in order to find out the actual correlation between skipping breakfast of school-aged children and their mothers. Method : The subjects of this study were 724 children and their mothers. The subjects were selected from two schools out of six offices of education in Busan between December 1 and December 20, 2002. The collected data was analyzed through real numbers, percentage, mean and standard deviation, cross tabulation, $\chi^2$-test, t-test, F-test, Scheffe-test and Pearson correlation coefficient using the SPSSWIN 11.0. Results : The results of this study are summarized as follows. 48.6% of children skipped breakfast while 54.7% of mothers skipped breakfast. The case that both children and mothers skipped breakfast were 37.1%. The correlation of children's skipping breakfast and their mothers characteristics was statistically significant(r=.288(p<0.001). There was relationship between the life styles of children and their mothers, but there was no relationship between life styles and the frequency of skipping breakfast. Conclusion : children are affected by or depend on their mothers eating habits and other tendencies in daily life.

Based on the Characteristics of the correlation function of speech signal, the skipping technique can reduced the computation time considerably with a little degradation of speech quality. To improve the speech quality of the skipping technique, we use the reduced form of the correlation function to check the sign of the correlation value before the match score is calculated. The experimental results show that this modified skipping technique can reduce the computation time in pitch search over 35% compared with the traditional full search method without quality degradation.

To guarantee client buffer stabilization and visual quality, the VOD service that provides real time video titles on requirements of numerous users, needs a mechanism which transfers frames with dropping or skipping algorithm by network condition. In this paper, we show an algorithm that transfers withdrawed skipped MPEG frames(I, P, B frame) from disk to client dependent on network load. Moreover, we verify through a simulation that adaptive dealing on network load can reduce the network load and stabilize client receiving buffer.

G.723.1은 저 전송률 환경에서 고음질을 제공하여 주고 있으나 CELP형 부호화기가 갖는 합성에 의한 분석(analysis by synthesis) 방식의 구조로 인해 많은 처리 시간과 계산량을 요구하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 G.723.1에 대해 skipping 기법을 이용하여 피치 검색과정이 계산량을 줄여 부호화기의 전체 처리 시간을 감소시키는 방법을 제안하였다. 예측 피치를 찾기 위한 개회로 피치 예측(open loop pitch estimation) 과정에서 계산량을 줄이기 위해 skipping 기법을 사용하였다. 피치 예측 과정시 상관관계를 파형은 양과 음의 파형이 교대로 나타나는 특징을 가지고 있기 때문에 계산시 음의 파형을 생략하는 방법을 사용하였다. 실제 음성시료에 대해 제안한 피치 검색법을 적용하였을 때 부호화시 평균 처리시간은 약 10%정도 감소하였으며 기존 G.723.1과 제안한 방법을 적용한 G.723.1의 음질 비교를 위하여 MOS 평가를 했을 때 기존의 방법이 평균 3.76인데 비해 제안한 방법의 평균 MOS는 3.73으로 주관적인 음질 저하는 거의 나타나지 않았다.

For the last decades, molecular genetics has achieved great advances that the genes on the list of inherited muscle diseases are piling up. Those diseases of overlapping clinico-pathologic findings are now understood with discrete molecular pathogeneses. We are facing an exciting era that the long-waited gene therapy may eventually come true. Skipping of dystrophin exon 51 is on successful clinical trials, which will benefit about 13% of the children suffering from Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Exon skipping is under active investigation to expand the candidates. Hopefully it may cover majority of Duchenne muscular dystrophy mutations and some of other diseases. Adeno-associated virus is one of the most versatile tools for gene transfer. It may overcome the limitation of exon skipping. Here we review exon skipping technique of Duchenne muscular dystrophy and briefly discuss the other strategies being studied to cure inherited muscle diseases.

The purpose of this study was to identify the factors associated with skipping breakfast of Korean children by analyzing the 24-hour recall intake data from the 2001 National Health and Nutrition Survey. The sample of this study consisted of 1,600 children aged 7 to 18 years. About 17% of the children skipped breakfast, consuming no food or beverage at all. About 30% of children reporting breakfast skipping in a self-administered survey were shown to have eaten some foods as a result of analysis of the 24-hour recall data. Students having eaten breakfast consumed 21% of Estimated Energy Requirement at breakfast. The multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that age was associated with skipping breakfast both in elementary and middle/high school students; older students were more likely to skip breakfast. Elementary school students from low-income families were more likely to skip breakfast than those from upper-high income families. Intervention programs are needed to prevent children from skipping breakfast by targeting older students. For elementary school students, such programs should be first developed for those from low-income families.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the dietary behaviors as well as energy and nutrient intake in elementary and middle school students according to breakfast eating status. The survey was conducted using questionnaires and dietary records among 191 elementary school students and 280 middle school students residing in Chungnam. The subjects were divided into two groups according to frequency of eating breakfast: breakfast skipping (frequency of eating breakfast under 4 times/week) and breakfast eating (frequency of eating breakfast over 5 times/week). The rate of breakfast skipping was 27.2% for the elementary school students and 31.1% for the middle school students. The breakfast skipping group had a significantly lower frequency of having dinner, a lower proportion of eating at regular meal times, and a significantly higher frequency of leaving food after meals than the breakfast eating group for both elementary and middle school students. In the case of the elementary students, there was a significant difference in carbohydrate intake between the two groups. In the case of the middle school students, the intakes of energy, protein, carbohydrate, dietary fiber, vitamin A, vitamin B2, niacin, vitamin B6, folate, vitamin C, Ca, and Fe in the breakfast skipping group were significantly lower than those in the breakfast eating group. These results show that nutrient deficiencies among breakfast skipping individuals cannot be compensated for at the other meals during the day in middle school-aged adolescents whose nutrient requirements are high for growth. Therefore, in support of proper dietary management, it is necessary to promote and support breakfast eating in adolescents.

Exon skipping is an efficient technique to inhibit specific gene expression induced by a short-sequence peptide nucleic acid (PNA). To date, there has been no study on the effects of PNA on skin pigmentation. In melanocytes, the tripartite complex is responsible for the transport of mature melanosomes from the nucleus to the dendrites. The tripartite complex is composed of Rab27a, Mlph (Melanophilin), and Myosin Va. Defects in the protein Mlph, a melanosome transport-related protein, are known to cause hypopigmentation. Our study shows that Olipass peptide nucleic acid (OPNA), a cell membrane-permeable PNA, targets exon skipping in the Mlph SHD domain, which is involved in Rab27a binding. Our findings demonstrate that OPNA induced exon skipping in melan-a cells, resulting in shortened Mlph mRNA, reduced Mlph protein levels, and melanosome aggregation, as observed by microscopy. Therefore, OPNA inhibits the expression of Mlph by inducing exon skipping within the gene. These results suggest that OPNA, which targets Mlph, may be a potential new whitening agent to inhibit melanosome movement.
