| Research Abstract |
The effects on somatic growth of 509 children in disaster area by the Great East Japan Earthquake were investigated. Many children without increment of body weight after Earthquake were observed. On the other hand, overweight in some children got worse. Thesemight be from mental stress and environmental changes like lack of exercise.
