The purpose of this study is to evaluate a sizing system of ready-to-wear clothes for middle-school girls. Results of the study are as follows. 1. Results of the survey revealed most middle-school girls preferred garments for women like unisex-casual and young-casual, and prioritized overall style and design over sizing issues. However, when they purchased clothes, they were dissatisfied with the poor fit of ready-to-wear clothing, which is a little too big for average middle-school girls. 2. There is a difference between a brand's target age and its average consumer age. $96.7\%$, of respondents purchased clothes from unisex-casual and young-casual brands, which sizes did not fit for them. Most of these brands had female adults ages 18 to 24 as their targets, whose somatotypes do not correspond with those of girls 12 to 15 years old. 3. Body measurements of those in age groups from 12 to 15 and from 10 to 24 were analyzed to identify physical differences between middle-school girls and female adults, which confirmed the relevance of different sizing systems for each age group. As a result, it is undesirable that middle school girls' clothes are designed in accordance with sizing system for female adults' garments. 4. Using the two-wav distribution of middle school girls' stature-bust circumference for upper garments, and stature-waist circumference for lower garments, this study establishes a sizing system in sections of high frequency. The size intervals of stature and circumference were 5cm and 3cm respectively.

This study was conducted to provide basic information on developing highschool-uniform pants with more suitable fit and to suggest a sizing system for highschool girls' uniform pants that adequately reflects their body figures. To understand the features of high school girls' lower body type, the body measurement values of 833 girls from 16~18 years of age based on Size Korea(2010) were analyzed statistically. For the classification of lower body type for high school girls, a factor analysis and cluster analysis were conducted. The collected data were processed with the programs SPSS 18.0 for windows. The results in this study are follows: The lower body types for high school girls were divided into 3 groups. Body Type A is average stature but the biggest circumference, Type B is the biggest stature and the medium body type, Type C is the smallest stature and skeleton structure. KS size intervals were used for frequency distribution of height and waist for the lower body. Sizing system of the uniform company and frequency distribution of sizes were compared. Using the two-way distribution of highschool girls' waist circumference and hip circumference, sizing system considering body type distribution and high frequency distribution section of sizes was suggested. This study established new sizing system depending on lower body fixed as 26 number of sizes. The most suitable standard is fixed as 12 number of sizes ; 64-88, 64-91, 67-88, 67-91, 67-94, 70-91, 70-94, 70-97, 73-94, 73-97, 76-97, 76-100. The coverage is also calculated. And the coverage of new standard was 63.5%. The continuous study on the uniform pants sizing system of the obesity types is required.

Recently, as interest in appearance has increased, various studies on treatment method for short stature are being conducted. In this study, the effect of growth plate stimulation on the height growth of children and adolescents was studied. As a result of pre- and post-analysis of the experimental group, it was confirmed that the difference in average height according to growth plate stimulation was relatively large. In addition, in the results of analyzing the effects of demographic factors on the height growth of the experimental group and the control group, weight showed the greatest influence on height growth among the demographic factors affecting the height growth of the experimental group. The effect on the height growth of the control group was found to have an effect in the order of age, weight, and father's height. The difference in height changed post-mortem between the experimental group and the control group was 1.10 cm for 3 months, and the difference was the result of growth plate stimulation. It was confirmed that growth plate stimulation had a significant effect on the height change of children and adolescents, except for weight, which is a common factor of height change in the experimental and control groups. Therefore, it is expected that it can be used as a treatment method for short stature.

This paper proposed the sizing system for womens lower clothes. The sizing system was classified according to 4 body types and 5 age groups. The size intervals of waist girth, hip girth, stature, and slacks length were 3cm, 4cm, 8cm, and 5cm respectively. Frequency distribution analyzed with waist girth, hip girth, and stature showed that the most frequent sizes were 86-100-158 in the fattest-medium length H type, 77-92-158 in the fat-short M type, 68-92-158 in the balanced-long A type, and 65-88-158 in the balanced-medium length A type. The number of the sizes for lower clothes, which had frequencies more than 4∼5%, was 33 and each size was presented with slacks length, skirt length, thigh girth, and knee girth. Also frequency distribution analyzed with waist girth, hip girth, and slacks length showed that the most frequent sizes were 86-100-90 in the fattest-medium length H type, 74-96-90 in the fat-short M type, 68-92-90 in the balanced-long A type, and 65-88-90 in the balanced-medium length A type. The sizing system classified by age group had 21 cases in the early twenties, 21 cases in the late twenties, 18 cases in the early thirties, 16 cases in the late thirties, and 8 cases in the forties. This result will contribute to clothing fitness and efficient production.

This study develops size sections and specifications for females 7-18 years old. The specifications will contribute to the development of precise virtual models that represent basic data for the size alteration of 3D virtual models. A total of 33 items from the $5^{th}$ Size Korea data set were adopted and analyzed. Two representative factors (Obesity and Height Factors) were identified through a factor analysis of the 33 items. Waist circumference and stature were selected as representative variables for Obesity and Height Factors, respectively, and conducted cross tabulations between waist circumference and height for the age groups of 7-12 and 13-18 year-olds. Size sections were developed for the development of 3D models based on the results. A regression analysis then developed size specifications for each section with independent variables of waist circumference and height as well as dependent variables of reference body size. Subsequently, Obesity Factors were better explained by waist circumference and Height Factors were better explained by stature. Finally, size specifications for each section were developed.

목 적 : 특발성 저신장증 환자에서 IGF-I 유전자 다형성의 역할에 대한 연구는 아직 보고되지 않았다. 저자들은 한국인 특발성 저신장증 환자를 대상으로 IGF-I 프로모터 CA repeat 유전자 다형성에 대한 분석을 실시하였다. 방 법 : 신장 계측에 의해 2007년에 제작된 한국 소아 발육 표준 신장표에 의거하여 나이와 성별에 따른 신장백분위수가 3백분위수 미만인 131명을 대상으로 하였다. 성장호르몬 치료의 분석은 최소한 6개월 이상 성장호르몬 치료를 받은 37명을 대상으로 실시하였다. 유전자형의 분석은 유전자 염기서열분석을 통하여 실시하였다. CA repeat 횟수에 따른 대립유전자의 분포를 조사하였고, 이를 바탕으로 유전자형을 분석하였다. CA repeat의 heterozygous의 분석은 Gene Mapper software를 이용하였다. 혈청 IGF-I 농도는 RIA방법으로 측정하였다. 결 과 : 국인 특발성 저신장증 환자에서의 CA repeat의 분포는 15부터 22까지였으며, 19 repeat가 40.6%의 빈도로 가장 높았다. 유전자형에 따른 분포는 131명 중 17명(13.0%)이 19 CA repeat homozygous 였으며, 74명(56.5%)은 heterozygous, 40명(30.5%)은 19 CA repeat noncarrier 였다. 유전자형에 따른 키, 체중, BMI는 세군 모두에서 유의한 차이가 없었다. 유전자형에 따른 혈청 IGF-I 농도는 19 CA repeat noncarrier군에서 $435.67{\pm}160.29$ ng/mL로, 19 CA homozygous 군에서의 $435.60{\pm}131.51$ ng/mL, 19 CA heterozygous 군에서의 $473.76{\pm}185.01$ ng/mL과 유의한 차이가 없었다. 나이와 혈청 IGF-I 농도와의 상관관계를 분석한 결과 세군 모두에서 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였다(P<0.01). 유전자형에 따른 첫 1년 동안의 성장호르몬 치료 효과를 분석한 결과 성장호르몬 치료 후 12개월로 환산한 성장속도는 19 CA homozygote군에서 $7.6{\pm}3.4$ Cm, 19 CA heterozygote군에서 $7.9{\pm}2.6$ cm 그리고 19 CA noncarrier군에서 $7.7{\pm}2.8$ cm로 세군 사이에 유의한 차이가 없었다(P>0.05). 성장호르몬 치료 전후의 신장표준편차점수 차이도 19 CA homozygote군에서 $0.6{\pm}0.2$, 19 CA heterozygote군에서 $0.5{\pm}0.4$ 그리고 19 CA noncarrier군에서 $0.5{\pm}0.4$로 세군 사이에 유의한 차이가 없었다(P>0.05). 결 론 : 특발성 저신장증 환자에서의 IGF-I 프로모터 CA repeat 유전자 다형성의 분포는 15부터 22까지였으며, 19 repeat가 40.6%의 빈도로 가장 높았다. 키, 체중, BMI 그리고 혈중 IGF-I농도는 유전자형에 따라 유의한 차이가 없었다. 유전자형에 관계없이 나이와 혈중 IGF-I 농도 사이에는 모든 군에서 유의한 양의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 유전자형에 따른 첫 1년간의 성장호르몬 치료 효과도 유전자형에 따라 유의한 차이가 없었다. 그러므로 특발성 저신장증 환자에서는 IGF-I 유전자 다형성은 기능적 역할을 하지 못한다고 생각한다.

The purpose of this study was performed to analyze the trend of bodytype change of adult males. Subjects were 1290 Korean adult males and their age range was from 19 to 54 year, ; old. 75 variables(66 variables from the direct anthropometric data and 9 variables from the multiplication method) in total were applied to analyze. The principal component analysis was applied to the data with orthogonal rotation after extraction of major factors. The high factor loading items extracted by factor analysis were analyzed for the trend of bodytype change by the age group respectively. The result of factor analysis indicated that the first factor was composed with about 30 items, girth, depth and width-measures in 4 age groups and was analysed as form factors. Especially, age-related change was caused by increase of waist girth, depth and width. The second factor was composed with about 23 items, length and height-measures in all age groups. Stature has a constant factor loading value in 4 groups. Front and back waist-height and the navel-height have the highest factor loading value. The third, fourth and fifth factors were composed with different variables among the age groups.

This study has analyzed body size of adult women between 20~59 years old in 2010 conducted by Size Korea and the study method is as follow. (1) Distribution ratio of bust circumference per age and distribution ratio of differences of bust drops were analyzed. (2) Analysis of one-way design of experiment was carried out for 20 items of body sizes according to differences of bust drops with regard to age groups of 20 and 40 years old in consideration of tourists who are unspecified target and for the whole ages groups. (3) Comparison analysis of 20 items of body sizes per bust circumference and according to level of differences of bust drops was carried out and (4) t-test of the two groups based on the standard of 12.5 cm of the differences of bust drops was conducted and was analyzed. Tthe differences of bust drops below 10 cm were reduced according to ages. 12.5 cm was the most in the group of ages of 20s and under 7.5 cm was reduced as ages were higher. Body items according to the differences of bust drops per ages had meaningful differences between groups except (acromion height-axilla height), height and shoulder length for the group of ages of 20s and in the whole ages groups, there was meaningful difference between groups in all items except height and shoulder length. Comparisons according to the differences of bust drops per section of 5 cm of bust circumference showed meaningful differences between groups in general in items of BMI, bust point-bust point, neck circumference, bust circumference, underbust circumference, neck point to bust point and weight. As the result of comparing the two groups of the differences of bust drops based on the standard of 12.5 cm, all had meaningful differences except stature and shoulder length.
