Clin Exp Pediatr. 2015;58(6):211-217.   Published online June 22, 2015
Purpose

Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) infection is a major cause of respiratory infection in school-aged children. Extrapulmonary manifestations of MP infection are common, but liver involvement has been rarely reported. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical characteristics of MP-associated hepatitis.

Methods

This prospective study included 1,044 pediatric patients with MP infection diagnosed serologically with MP IgM at one medical center...

Purpose : Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection is relatively common in childhood. Its extrapulmonary manifestations have been reported so much, but hepatitis associated with it has been reported rarely in Korea. Methods : A clinical study was performed on 556 patients of M. pneumoniae pneumonia diagnosed serologically at Gil hospital from January 2001 to December 2004. We reviewed 65 cases among these patients,...
Therapeutic Effect of Different Doses of Recombinant Human Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor(rhG-CSF) on Neonatal Sepsis Complicated by Neutropenia

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(4):439-448.   Published online April 15, 2002
Purpose : The aim of this study is to determine and compare the effects of adjunctive therapy with different doses of recombinant human granulocyte-colony stimulating factor(rhG-CSF) on reversing sepsis-associated neonatal neutropenia, and their survival rate in a group I/II-type trial. Methods : RhG-CSF was injected subcutaneously to 10 septic-neutropenic neonates with doses of 10 μg/kg from Oct. 1995 to Sep. 1996,...

Dong Hun Rhie, Sun Hwan Bae, Ji Eun Choi, Bo Young Yun, Dong Woo Son, Choong Ho Shin, Kyung Hee Park, Jae Sung Ko, Jeong Kee Seo
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(11):1465-1472.   Published online November 15, 2000
Purpose : Congenital chloride diarrhea(CLD) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by life-long watery diarrhea of prenatal onset with high fecal Cl－ concentration. Recent studies have revealed that the protein product of the down-regulated in adenoma(DRA) gene is an intestinal anion transporter molecule and causes CLD when mutated. We investigated the clinical characteristics of CLD in Korean infants in order...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(1):133-137.   Published online January 15, 1999
Glanzmann's thrombasthenia is a rare autosomal recessive hemorrhagic disorder of platelet function with missing or abnormal platelet plasma membrane glycoprotein Ⅱb-Ⅲa, which functions as a receptor for fibrinogen. We have experienced a case of thrombasthenia in a 6-year-old female whose chief complaints were easy bruising, frequent epistaxis, arthralgia and swelling of the right ankle joint. Bleeding time was prolonged in...

Pena-Shokeir I syndrome is a multiple malformation syndrome displaying characteristics of camptodactyly, multiple ankylosis, severe muscle weakness, facial anomalies (low set ears, hypertelorism, depressed tip of nose), polyhydramnios, fetal growth retardation & pulmonary hypoplasia which are inherited by autosomal recessive trait. We experienced 1 case of Pena-Shokeir I syndrome in a neonate (41 weeks, 2.08Kg). This patient suffered from dyspnea. Respiratory...

The 45 neonates with bronchopulmonary dysplasia among 355 neonates who were managed with mechanical ventilation and oxygen therapy in NICU of Seoul National University Chhildren's Hospital from January 1, 1968 to December 31, 1991, were analyzed for risk factors and outcome. The results were as follows: 1) The incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia was 12.7% 2) Respiratory Distress Syndrome was most common underlying problem. 3)...
Re-evaluation of TSH Screening TEST in Neonates
Jin Young Song, Dong Woo Son, Beyong Il Kim, Sei Won Yang, Jung-Hwan Choi, Chong Ku Yoon, Hyung Ro Moon
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1993;36(11):1502-1506.   Published online November 15, 1993
Five years ago, we made the cut-off value of TSH by dry filter paper method as 15μU/ml to screening congenital hypothyrodism. Since then, 1,210 term neonates, who had no perinatal problems, screening test with this cut-off point. Neonates had been recalled for measurement of serum T4/TSH to rule out congenital hypothyroidism if their TSH value by screening tests reveal more...

As childhood cancer survivors are now increasing in number owing to the improvements in diagnosis, staging, and treatment, concerns have been raised regarding the quality of survival of these patients. One of the limitation to quality and length of survival has been the development of second malignant neoplasm (SMN). In Korea, only one case of SMN has been reported. However, one can expect that...
