Purpose : Rotavirus is a leading cause of severe gastroenteritis in infants and young children around the world. The aim of this study is to investigate the fat content in stools of patients with rotaviral enteritis compared to the stools of children who had no gastroenteritis.
Methods : Seventy two patients who were admitted to Konkuk University Hospital, College of... |

Purpose : Steatorrhea tests have been developed using various methods. Acid steatocrit is a simple method to detect steatorrhea and has very high sensitivity and specificity. This present study was designed to establish the normal values of acid steatocrit in Korean infants and to find the difference according to the various feeding methods.
Methods : Acid steatocrit tests were conducted on... |

Purpose : Children with idiopathic short stature(ISS) are classified on the basis of exclusion criteria. Short stature with normal or increased circulating growth hormone(GH) and low IGF-I levels indicates that partial growth hormone insensitivity(GHI) may play a role in ISS. The present study was performed to investigate whether partial GHI is observed in children with idiopathic short stature and whether... |

Purpose : To detect microdeletion of 15q11-13 region, high resolution cytogenetic analysis or FISH with probe at Prader-Willi syndrome region can be used. We tried to evaluate whether FISH with SNRPN is a more effective method than G-banding microscope in the diagnosis of Prader-Willi syndrome.
Methods : Peripheral blood sampling was done on five patients who we suspected of Prader-Willi syndrome... |

Purpose : Growth hormone(GH) is a powerful inhibitor of lipoprotein lipase and is known to decrease fat cell mass. The lipolytic effect has more pronounced influence on visceral fat than subcutaneous fat. The effects of GH therapy on GH receptor in fat tissue are not clear. We investigated the changes in fat tissue and GH receptor mRNA in adipose tissue... |

Purpose : It is well known that the linear growth velocity in children with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus(type 1 DM) is closely related to metabolic control and onset age of the disease. Many studies have demonstrated growth impairment in children with type 1 DM, regardless of the degree of metabolic control, whereas other studies have found no growth retardation. Therefore, we... |
