Eun Ha Mo, In Hye Nam, Min Ja Chung, Jae Hong Yu
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(7):902-905.   Published online July 15, 2002
The most common form of genetic nephrogenic diabetes insipidus(NDI), a rare inherited disorder, is congenital and is transmitted in an X-linked recessive mode. It is refractory to the antidiuretic effect of normal to moderately increased levels of plasma arginine vasopressin(AVP) but, in some cases, may respond to high levels of the hormone or its analogue, deamino-D-arginine vasopressin(DDAVP). X-linked congenital NDI...

The most common developing sites are the stomach(especially greater curvature of antrum), duodenum and proximal jejunum. Most lesions do not cause any clinical symptoms, but sometimes nonspecific significant symptoms...
Two Cases of Growth Hormone Therapy in Idiopathic Dilated Cardiomyopath
Jeong Won Shin, Hong Ryang Kil, Jae Hong Yu
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(8):942-947.   Published online August 15, 2001
Growth hormone receptor gene is expressed in the myocardium and growth hormone(GH) administration has been shown to increase cardiac insulin-like growth factor-I(IGF-1) contents. The cardiac myocyte express IGF-I receptors and IGF-I promotes cardiac hypertrophy. Furthermore GH therapy has been reported to have beneficial effects in the treatment of dilated cardiomyopathy in adults. We have studied the effect of short term...
