Clin Exp Pediatr. 2023;66(3):134-141.   Published online December 22, 2022
Question: The clinical differences between severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) and human coronaviruses (HCoV) in children remain unknown.
Finding: This study compared the clinical findings of children infected with SARS-CoV-2 versus HCoV. Its findings suggest that children and adolescents with SARS-CoV-2 have a milder clinical course than those with HCoV.
Meaning: The clinical course of children and adolescents with SARS-CoV-2 should be closely monitored during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic.
The evaluation of risk for aspiration using lipid-laden macrophage index in infants with bronchiolitis
Ji Yeon Koh, Hee Kang, Ju Young Chung, Tae Hee Han, Chang Keun Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2006;49(7):763-768.   Published online July 15, 2006
Purpose : We investigated the risk of aspiration using the lipid-laden macrophage index(LLMI) from laryngeal lavages in infants with bronchiolitis. Methods : Laryngeal lavages from 22 infants with acute bronchiolitis caused by respiratory syncytial virus(RSV) were evaluated during the acute stage. Repeat studies were performed at 3 to 4 weeks after the initial study(remission stage). Lavage cell counts and differentials were...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2003;46(8):763-768.   Published online August 15, 2003
Purpose : This study was conducted to investigate the pulmonary cellular profiles and IL-8 levels in patients with post-measles wheezing. Methods : Twelve previously healthy infants with a minimum of three episodes of wheezing after measles pneumonia(Measles wheezing, median age, 1.3 years) were recruited by a retrospective examination of hospital records. They underwent bronchoalveolar lavage(BAL) with flexible bronchoscopy, and high-resolution computed...

A Case of Primary Small Cell Bronchogenic Carcinoma Detected by Bronchoscopy in a Child
Seon Ju Song, Chang Keun Kim, Churl Young Chung
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(11):1599-1603.   Published online November 15, 1999
While the frequency of primary carcinoma of the lung has recently increased in adults, it is rare in the pediatric age group. The various adult types of bronchogenic carcinoma such as squamous cell, small cell, large cell, and adenocarcinoma, are extremely rare in children. Twenty to 30 cases of primary bronchogenic carcinoma of the lung in children under 15 years...

Usefulness of the Flexible Bronchoscopy for Pediatric Respiratory Diseases
Chang Keun Kim, Churl Young Chung
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(6):783-789.   Published online June 15, 1999
Purpose : Flexible bronchoscopy is an important diagnostic and sometimes therapeutic tool that can be used on infants and children using light sedation and local anaesthesia. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the contribution of the flexible bronchoscopy to clinical diagnosis and therapy in children. Methods : We examined the first 100 consecutive flexible bronchoscopies performed in children under...
The Usefulness of Serum Total IgE Test by Multiple Allergosorbent Test-Chemiluminescent Assay(MAST-CLA) : Comparison with Paper Radioimmunosorbent Test(PRIST)
Hyun Chul Lee, Chang Keun Kim, Churl Young Chung
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(3):397-402.   Published online March 15, 1999
Purpose : Multiple allergosorbent test-chemiluminescent assay(MAST-CLA) is a semiquantitative method for detecting total IgE and specific IgE in serum. The purposes of this study are to investigate the correlation between MAST-CLA and Paper radioimmunosorbent test(PRIST), and to find out whether MAST-CLA can replace PRIST in measuring of serum total IgE. Methods : Data of 162 subjects were analyzed by linear...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(2):284-288.   Published online February 15, 1999
Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis(ABPA) is an inflammatory disease which causes a hypersensitivity to Aspergillus spores growing in the bronchi. The clinical syndrome is characterized by asthma, recurrent pulmonary infiltrations or mucoid impaction, eosinophilia, and central bronchiectasis. A 12-year-old boy was admitted to our hospital because of right lower chest pain and cystic mass-like shadows on a chest X-ray film. He had...
Fatal Doudenal Ulcer Bleeding in Status Asthmaticus Treated with Theophylline and Steroids
Sang Woo Lee, Chang Keun Kim, Churl Young Chung, Young Doug Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(4):548-552.   Published online April 15, 1998
It is generally agreed that theophylline preparations and steroids should be given intravenously for status asthmaticus. Theophylline can potentially have adverse gastrointestinal effects including abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and hematemesis. Upper gastrointestinal bleeding in patients treated with corticosteroids without a past history of upper gastrointestinal bleeding has been reported rarely. But the etiologic significance of the stress of status asthmaticus, administration of theophylline or corticosteroids...
A Case of Severe Pulmonary Complication and ARDS Secondary to Peanut Aspiration in 15 Month Old Male
