The purpose of this study was to identify the factors associated with dietary attitudes and dietary self-efficacy of juvenile delinquents. Out of 110 questionnaires distributed to the juvenile detention home students in Daegu, and 150 questionnaires distributed to the juvenile detention home students in Anyang, 210 were analyzed (80.7% analysis rate). These data were analyzed by SPSS program. The results are summarized as follows. Almost all parents' educational levels showed 'graduation of middle school', and only 43.8% of the juvenile detention students were living with parents. In case of incoming status, average income per month was 2,000,000 won, which was lower than normal one. Diet attitude score was higher in boy students than girl students (p < 0.05). There was a higher score of diet attitude in higher educational levels of father. The average score of dietary self-efficacy was 2.51 +/- 0.86. This value was lower than the normal juvenile. There was a higher diet attitude score in the higher dietary self-efficacy score (p < 0.001). Therefore, proper nutrition education is required to improve their dietary self-efficacy. The results of this study could be useful data to plan and develop nutritional education programs of juvenile delinquents

Although moyamoya disease is a clinical entity of unknown cause, considerable evidences suggest that the disease has genetic origins. The disease displays regional and racial differences. Occurrence of the disease within a family suggests that moyamoya disease may have a genetic basis. Familial moyamoya disease involving father and a son is presented and literatures are also reviewed.

Becoming a parent is a significant life transition accompanied by various experiences and emotions that may be both fulfilling and rewarding, as well as challenging and stressful for both the mother and father. Mercer's theory of becoming a mother provides a framework for mothers' adaptation and role attainment throughout the perinatal period. However, a theoretical gap exists surrounding fathers' adaptability and role attainment, as fathers are frequently forgotten, and their experiences are overlooked. Although becoming a father can be a rewarding or satisfying experience that results in positive changes in men's lives, some fathers experience concerns and contradictions as a result of a shift in their roles, responsibilities, and social expectations, which result in maladaptation and mental health challenges. Given the significance of fathers in the family, community, and society, this concept analysis aimed to bridge the gap by proposing a theory that will guide fathers in successfully adapting to and reaching a solid role identity. The concept analysis methodology from Walker and Avant (2011) was utilized to define the concept of paternal adaptation and role attainment, attributes, antecedents, consequences, cases, and empirical referents. This paper concludes that perinatal fathers' adaptability and role attainment improve psycho-emotional, cognitive, relational, and behavioral outcomes, improving paternal-maternal-infant quality of life and developmental products when influenced by positive personal resources, adequate family, friends support, and community resources. Given the implications of paternal maladaptation on the family, a theoretical framework for fathers is crucial. Hence, the theory of paternal adaptation and role attainment is proposed.

The purpose of this study was to identify the attitudes of nutrition majors toward hiring older workers who are over fifty-five years of age. Questionnaires were sent to 500 students who are studying food and nutrition in three colleges and three universities located in Seoul and its suburbs. Data from 490 usable responses were analyzed using the SAS package program. The study showed that although the students have a favorable perception about hiring older workers, they prefer to hire younger people under the age of 30 father than older workers(over 55 year old). Additionally, even though both the younger and older people have the same ability, they would still choose to hire younger people. Also, they think that older workers are harder to train, find it more difficult to adapt to new ways of working and are slower in their work. On the positive side, the response did show that students realize that older workers are not absent from work as frequently as younger workers and that they are more cooperative than younger workers are. The data also showed that the students who had a more positive experience with older workers also perceive those workers in a more positive way than the students who did mot have experience with older workers(p<0.0001). Finally, students who have family members who are older workers(p<0.01) and students who are planning to work past fifty-five years of ages show more positive attitudes toward older workers(p<0.01). Moreover male students showed more positive attitudes toward older workers than female students did(p<0.0001).

PURPOSE: We report two brothers having dissociated vertical deviation with microtia and familial history of the condition. METHODS: The subjects of this report are a 7-year-old patient with bilateral dissociated vertical deviation, exotropia, bilateral inferior oblique muscle overaction, and microtia, and his brother, a 6-year-old with bilateral dissociated vertical deviation, right dissociated horizontal deviation and microtia. RESULTS: The first patient underwent asymmetric bilateral lateral rectus muscle recession and bilateral inferior oblique muscle myotomy, while the second patient had asymmetric bilateral lateral rectus muscle recession. In the first patient, the exotropia was corrected, but the bilateral dissociated vertical deviation and left dissociated horizontal deviation remained. The right dissociated horizontal deviation improved in the second patient. Their father, two aunts and paternal grandmother also had strabismus and microtia. CONCLUSIONS: Physicians must investigate familial history in examining the strabismus patient with microtia. Additionally, genetic investigation is in need in more subjects of this study.

Evans myopathy is a type of malignant hyperthermia showing characteristic distribution of myopathic changes. We present two cases of Evans myopathy, father and his son in a family. Five members of this family expired during ane sthesia and surgery and two of these cases were reported as the malignant hyperthermia. The muscle pathology shows moth-eaten appearance with or without unstained cores in NADH-TR stain and its difference between the father and his son is suggestive of rather progressive myopathy than static one. s
