RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: This study investigated the correlation between bone mineral density (BMD)/trabecular bone score (TBS) and body mass index (BMI), height and weight in Korean adults. METHODS: We enrolled 2555 female participants in their 20s–80s and 1631 male participants in their 20s–70s. Participants with history of previous vertebral surgeries or current vertebral diseases were excluded. Female and male participants were divided into osteoporosis group (n = 136 and n = 31, respectively), osteopenia group (n = 822 and n = 460, respectively), and normal group (n = 1596 and n = 1140, respectively) based on their BMD T-score. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry image analysis and linear regression analysis were conducted on each participant in each group to determine the P-value and the correlation between BMD T-score/TBS T-score and BMI, weight, and height. RESULTS: We found a significant correlation between BMI and TBS in both male and female participants. In the male participants, the correlation coefficient increased progressively from the normal group to the osteoporosis group. In the female group, we observed a significant positive correlation between height and TBS, and in the male group a significant negative correlation between weight and TBS was observed. CONCLUSIONS: BMI and weight are closely correlated to body fat content. BMD was positively correlated to BMI and weight, while TBS was negatively correlated to BMI and weight. Therefore, although BMI causes an increase in BMD, it appears to be negatively affecting bone quality.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: It has been known that the prevalence of depression is increasing and depressive mood is accompanied with various physical symptoms in the elderly. In this research, we studied various physical symptoms of the elderly patients and how many of those symptoms were associated to depressive mood. We also investigated how much their doctors were concerned about depressive symptoms of the patients. METHODS: The subjects were 135 patients over 60 years old, who visited geriatric center and department of family medicine in a university hospital from December 2002 to May 2003. Individual interviews were conducted among the subjects and all symptoms who suffered from within a month from the time of inter view, depression score, stress score, functional status and their sociodemographic factors were assessed. Finally, doctor's diagnosis or comments on depressive mood were assessed based on the medical documents of the elderly patients with depression. RESULTS: 56% of the subjects had depressive mood. Common symptoms of subjects were memory impairment, visual disturbance, fatigue, arthralgia, and thirsty sense. The more depressive mood the elderly have, the more physical symptoms they have. The physician paid their attention to depressive mood in 13% of the cases among the elderly with depressive mood. Depressive mood was affected by whom they lived together with, regular exercise and stress. CONCLUSION: This study shows that most of the elderly patients had depressive mood and their common symptoms were associated to depressive mood. The stress and living together with their children were risk factors for depression of the elderly. However, depressive mood was less found among those patients who had spouse and who exercised regularly. Though physicians more likely recognize the depressive mood of the elderly as depression was severer, still little attention was paid to depressive mood in the elderly.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Most recently, there is an increased use of EGD (esophagogastroduodenoscopy) for primary care among family physicians, which tends to promote EGD training programs in the course of Family Practice Residency. This study determined to survey current status of EGD training programs among residents in family medicine, identify relevant problems, and present some suggestions for their improvement. METHODS: The subjects were residents selected among family medicine training hospitals, which were registered in the KAFM (Korean Academy of Family Medicine). The residents were in their 3rd year of training or had already completed the EGD training program. Surveys were sent out to those hospitals by mail and electronic mail surveys were performed by researchers. RESULTS: Among 66 subject hospitals a total of 27 surveys (40.9%) were returned. Most EGD training were performed in the department of internal medicine. The mean duration of training period was 8 weeks. The averale number of hands on experience of the procedure was 62. It was found that most residents thought that EGD training period and the number of hands on experience of the procedure were insufficient. The longer period of actual experience of the procedure and the more number of EGD caseloads they had, the more they were satisfied with their EGD training programs. It was also found that there was a high demand for a follow-up learning opportunities for EGD (p<.05), because the residents who had already had many EGD caseloads further wanted to receive continuous education even, after they acquired license. There were no relationships observation period, period of actual experience of the procedure, and number of EGD caseloads during residency with demand for follow-up learning opportunities. CONCLUSION: In summary, there was insufficient EGD training period and actual experience of the EGD procedure in family practice residency. There was low satisfaction of EGD training programs and high demand for continuous education. Therefore, it is recommended to establish EGD training program, proper practice training, and regular continuing education after completing residency.
