BACKGROUND: This study was conducted to explore the prevalence of and the factors affecting constipation in elementary school students in urban and rural areas. METHODS: Study subjects were 585 grade 5 and 6 students. We conducted self-administered questionnaires during October, 2009. Outcome measure was the prevalence of constipation evaluated by the Rome III Diagnostic criteria for functional constipation. Independent variables were gender, grade, residence, mother's employment status, self-rated health status, number of family members, bowel movement habit, and health behavior (nutrition, exercise, and stress). RESULTS: The multiple logistic regression analysis showed that females, grade 5 students, those with working mothers, and those physically inactive reported having constipation significantly more often. CONCLUSIONS: Our study revealed that the female gender, increasing age, mother's employment status, and physical inactivity were risk factors for constipation in elementary school students. To improve bowel function in children, health education programs and school health promotion programs targeting healthy life habits should be implemented.

Primary cutaneous leiomyosarcoma is a rare neoplasm. The tumor presents as a nondescript subcutaneous mass, and may be painful or tender. The diagnosis depends on the histopathologic findings. We report a case of primary cutaneous leiomyosarcoma developed in a 57-year-old male. Five and half years ago, the patient noticed a rice grain sized nodule on the right deltoid area. Five years ago, the lesion was excised at a local medical office. From 2 years ago, the tumor recurred on the excision site as a well defined painful erythematous hard tumor, measuring 3.5*3cm. Biopsy specimen showed densely packed, interlacing bundles of smooth muscle cells which have numerous anaplastic nuclei, atypical giant cells with bizarre nuclei and 10 mitotic figures per 10 high power fields.

Multiple congenital melanocytic nevi (MCMN), defined as the distribution of more than three small- or medium- sized congenital melanocytic nevi (CMN) on the body without a giant CMN, is a rare disease comprising about 4% of patients with CMN. Because MCMN accompanies neurodevelopmental delay, including seizures in 25% of patients as well as the risk of malignant melanoma, it must be carefully followed-up. We report a case of MCMN with developmental delay in a 19-month-old Korean boy. He had a history of febrile seizure when he was 18 months old. He showed a speech delay after the 1-year-follow up, even though there was no evidence of neurocutaneous melanosis (NCM) on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at the first visit. As MRI has a low sensitivity for detecting NCM in patients with MCMN older than 4-months, close neurodevelopmental assessments should be considered to provide a chance for early rehabilitation.

PURPOSE: Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most common nutrient deficient disorder in infants and young children. Iron deficiency at this age group can cause serious effects on mental and psychomotor development. We analyzed the hematologic profiles of infants and young children with IDA, comparing them with control group. METHODS: The feeding practices and the iron batteries investigated in 198 anemic patients aged 5 to 36 months who had been brought to Inha General & University Hospital. Control group were 129 healthy infants and children who visited DongBu Municipal Hospital and the local health center for immunizations. They also had hemoglobin concentration (Hb), hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin and red cell distribution width (RDW) tested by the electron counters. Patients with hemoglobin level <11 g/dL who had serum ferritin <10 ng/mL or transferrin saturation <15% were classified as having IDA. RESULTS: Out of the 198 subjects (M:F=1.6:1) with IDA, 81.8% (n=162) was breast feeding more than 6 months. The main causes which they were brought to the clinic were infectious or inflammatory illness, and only 13.1% with IDA were visited for evaluation of pallor or anemia. Correlation between Hb and MCV was much more in IDA group than control group (r=0.709, r=0.368; P<0.001). CONCLUSION: By combining Hb with MCV and RDW as well as iron batteries in screening for iron deficiency and IDA, the accuracy of diagnosis can be increased. We support the use of appropriately iron-fortified formulas or weaning foods, or the routine iron supplement starting at 6 months of age in exclusively breast-fed infants to prevent the iron deficiency.
