Since first description by Summerskill and Walshe in 1959, almost 100 patients with BRIC have been described. The mechanism involved in the initiation and perpetution of an episode of cholestasis are unknown. Altered bile acid metabolism has been proposed to play a...

To elucidate the characteristics of immunoregulatory system of children with chronic active hepatitis B and hepatitis B vaccine inoculated infant, the authors examined T cell subsets of the peripheral blood in 16 children with asymptomatic HBsAg carriers, 19 children with chronic hepatitis B (11 chronic persistent hepatitis (CPH) and 8 chronic active hepatitis (CAH) and 21 hepatitis B vaccine inoculated infants as well as...

Desquamative interstitial pneumonia (DIP) is a variant of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias, but characteristicalIy has massive desquamation and proliferation of alveolar cells into the distal air space with minimal fibrosis of the alveolar wall. DIP seems to have better response to corticosteroid and benign prognosis than idiopathic interstitial pneumonia. We experienced one case of 6-year old girl who showed typical picture of DIF on lung...

Relapsing polychondritis is a rare disease characterized by recurring episodes of inflammation of the cartilagenous structures of the body. Commonly involved organs include the inner and external ear, nose, joints, eyes, tracheobronchial tree, and cardiovascular system. We experienced a case of relapsing polychondritis in a 4 year old boy with auricular chondritis, polyarthritis, nasal chondritis, laryngeal chondritis and episcleritis. The review of...
Post-exercise Pulmonary Function Changes in Asthmatic Children.
Hee Joo Jeon, Jong Woo Shin
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1986;29(4):353-360.   Published online April 30, 1986
The pulmonary function tests were made after exercise provaction using bicycle in 22 :asthmatic and 6 healthy children. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1) There was no significant difference in pre-exercise pulmonary function tests between asthmatic and control children. 2) Among 22 asthmatic children, 17-10 children(77.3%~45.5%) according to different test indices, showed significant air way obstruction after exercise. 3) In the time...
