This study provides basic data when planning nutrition support for healthy aging by revealing the relationship between various symptoms in the elderly and nutrient intake. From the 8th National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, data from senior citizens aged 65 years or older in 2021 were used, and answers on the depression prevalence, activity restrictions, complaints of discomfort when chewing, and nutrient intake were analyzed through SPSS multiple logistic regression analysis. In the case of depression, there was a significant effect on the intake of four of the 20 nutrients (water, protein, cholesterol, and vitamin E). When experiencing activity restrictions, the intake of eight of the 20 nutrients (phosphorus, magnesium, vitamin A, vitamin D, beta-carotene, retinol, thiamine, and niacin) was affected. When experiencing chewing discomfort, the intake of three of the 20 nutrients (fat, magnesium, and vitamin E) was affected. Elderly people who suffer from depression, activity restrictions, and discomfort with chewing are at risk of various nutrient deficiencies, and related studies need to be conducted.

본 연구의 목적은 고연령가구의 주택점유에 있어서 신체기능적 건강상태의 측면에서 가구주의 활동제약이 점유형태에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 결정하는 요인을 분석하는데 있다. 이를 위해 한국노동패널 18차연도의 가구 및 개인자료를 이용하여 가구주의 연령이 55세 이상인 고연령가구를 대상으로 프로빗 모형을 설정하여 분석하였다. 분석결과 가구주가 활동제약 혹은 사회활동 제약이 있는 경우 자가선택확률이 감소하는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 활동제약이 있는 경우에는, 의료비용이 증가하고 경제활동 참여의 가능성이 낮을 뿐만 아니라 조기은퇴의 가능성이 높아 소득이 감소하게 되므로 자가 거주의 가능성이 낮아지는 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 고령자 중에서도 자립자에 비해 활동제약자가, 일상생활 활동제약자에 비해서는 사회활동 제약자가 더욱 열악한 주거취약계층일 가능성이 높음을 시사한다. 따라서 이러한 가구주의 활동제약을 중심으로 고연령가구의 주택점유형태 결정요인 분석에 관한 연구는 신체적 취약성을 고려하는 주택개량사업, 고령자 맞춤형 임대주택 등 주거복지정책의 대상인 취약계층을 파악하는데 유용한 지표로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

Weaver-Dunn's operation for acromioclavicular injury yields satisfactory results in most cases. Although clavicular prominence can recur, it is not frequently symtomatic, but it can cause serious impairment of shoulder function in young and active patients. The authors performed reconstruction of coracoclavicular ligament with an autogenous hamstring tendon graft in a 31 years old electrician with recurrence of clavicular prominence accompanied by pain and limitation of overhead activity. The hamstring tendon and two coracoclavicular sutures looped under the coracoid process were passed through holes in the clavicle and around the clavicle in overreduced position. Even though clavicular prominence recurred somewhat, the modified UCLA score by Rockwood improved to 17 from 11/20 at 2 years after operation and the patient had no restriction in working as an electrician. Symptomatic patient with recurrent clavicular prominence after Weaver-Dunn's operation can benefit from reconstruction of coracoclavicular ligament with a hamstring tendon.

Tyrosinemia I (fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase deficiency) is an autosomal recessive inborn error of tyrosine metabolism that produces liver failure in infancy or a more chronic course of liver disease with cirrhosis, often complicated by hepatocellular carcinoma in childhood or early adolescence. We studied a 37-year-old woman with tyrosinemia I whose severe liver disease in infancy and rickets during childhood were resolved with dietary therapy. From 14 years of age, she resumed unrestricted diet with the continued presence of the biochemical features of tyrosinemia, yet maintained normal liver function. In adult years, she accumulated only a small amount of succinylacetone. Despite this evolution to a mild biochemical and clinical phenotype, she eventually developed hepatocellular carcinoma. Her fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase genotype consists of a splice mutation, IVS6-1G>T, and a novel missense mutation, p.Q279R. Studies of resected liver revealed the absence of hydrolytic activity and immunological expression of fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase in tumour. In the non-tumoral areas, however, 53% of normal hydrolytic activity and immunologically present fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase were found. This case demonstrates the high risk of liver cancer in tyrosinemia I even in a seemingly favorable biological environment. In this study of tyrosinemia I, Case 2 with negative succinylacetone accumulation and the recovery of acute liver failure was compared with Case 1. Diet restriction and NTBC treatment are crucial to prevent hepatocellular carcinoma until liver transplant can take place and cure the condition. Further studies are needed to examine cases where liver cancer did not result despite clinical symptoms/signs of tyrosinemia type I.

Over 60 cases were enlisted, but only 31 cases among 24 patients were eligible with a minimum follow-up of 1 year and complete medical documents with imaging data. There were 18 boys and 6 girls, and 7 patients had bilateral lesions. The age of the patients ranged from 2 to 20 years(mean:10.5 years). At their first visit, most lesions had a highly characteristic location and radiographic appearance of radiolucent lesion(s) ranging from 1 to 3cm, except for one case of 5.5 cm in the posteromedial comer of distal femoral metaphysis. The margins were generally well-defined, although some were ill-defined. After reviewing our cases from the viewpoint of clinical course and radiographic patterns, we divided these lesions into two types. Type I is the osteolytic lesion excavated into the posteromedial aspect of the distal femur without cortical defect; and type II is the buldged out lesion of the femur with cortical irregularity into the surrounding soft tissues. Both types have distinctive clinical courses. Type I lesions were easy to make a definite diagnosis with plain radiographs alone, but in type II, it was sometimes very difficult to differentiate it from malignant tumors or chronic localized osteomyelitis. For this lesion, Gd-enhanced MRI was the most effective method for differential diagnosis. In this study, biopsy was not necessary to confirm the diagnosis. Clinical symptoms of type I were very minor or even absent. Many of them were accidentally found after minor trauma around the knee joint. Clinical symptoms disappeared far earlier than radiographical lesions. No treatment such as restriction of activity or drugs was necessary. For type II, the clinical symptoms were more accentuated and lasted longer, and it was necessary to restrict the activity for a certain period in many cases. However, all were self-limited.

The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to explore fear of falling in relation to activity restriction of in the community dwelling elderly. Two hundred ninety-nine community dwelling elderly residing in Seoul and Kyonggi-do were interviewed using a structured questionnaire. The results were as follows : 1. Subjects were predominantly women$(70.6\%)$, an average 72.5 years old; the incidence of falls in last one year was $45.5\%$. 2. The highest level of fear found for activity in those who say they do engage and those who do not engage in the activity was 'going out when it is slippery '(m=2.53, 2.81) and 'reach for something over your head'(m=1.66, 2.60). Fear of falling scores were significant lower for those who say they do engage in eight kinds of activities (excluded activities of given were 'go to the store', 'take a tub bath', 'get out of bed') than for those who do not engage in the activities. 3. Among those who did not perform the activity, the three activities, when it is slippy(n=80), reaching overhead(n=70), and walk outside(n=59),were most often avoided because fear alone as well as for reasons in addition to fear. 4. The significant variables associated with fear of falling were female(p=0.0000), 1 educational status(p=0.000l), poor economic condition(p=0.0007), and experience of falls in last one year(p=0.0007). Fear of falling is common in the community dwelling elderly in Korea and is associated with several demographical variables. Therefore, to prevent falls and to reduce fear of falling, further study for development of education program for the elderly is needed.
