Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibition Modulates Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase Family Expressions in the Neonatal Rat Kidney
Byung Min Choi, Mee-Hye Oh, Kee Hwan Yoo
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2004;47(3):325-331.   Published online March 15, 2004
Purpose : In a developing kidney, the renin-angiotensin system(RAS) is markedly activated and is thought to play an important role in postnatal renal growth and maturation. We previously demonstrated that angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE) inhibition in a developing rat kidney increases apoptosis and decreases its related gene expressions, which may account for renal growth impairment. Among the mitogen-activated protein kinases(MAPK) family...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(2):167-176.   Published online February 15, 2001
Purpose : The aims of this study are to investigate the results of balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) in congenital aortic stenosis(CAS) and, especially, to compare the results between BAV performed before two months of age(Group A) and BAV after two month of age(Group B). Methods : From January 1993 to June 2000, 14 patients who were diagnosed as CAS were treated...
Study of Congenital Mitral Stenosis Cases Requiring Surgical Correction in the First 2-Years of Life
In Seung Park, Young Seok Lee, Mi Young Han, Jae Young Lee, Soo Jin Kim, Do Jun Cho, Mee-Hye Oh, Woong-Han Kim, Young-Tak Lee, Eun Jung Bae, Seong Ho Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(11):1458-1464.   Published online November 15, 2000
Purpose : Congenital mitral stenosis(CMS) is a rare anomaly accounting for 0.4-0.5% of total heart disease. CMS which cases needed surgical correction in infancy are even rare. In this study, we analyzed 11 CMS patients of less than 2 year of age who needed surgical corrections, in order to find out their diagnoses, the characteristics, the results of operation and...
Follow up of Patients with Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return in Right Atrial Isomerism
Soo Jin Kim, Jae Young Lee, Mi Young Han, Do Jun Jo, In Seung Park, Mee-Hye Oh, Eun Jung Bae, Seong Ho Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(11):1451-1457.   Published online November 15, 2000
Purpose : Total anomalous venous return(TAPVR) is associated in more than 60% of patients with right isomerism and can significantly complicate the management of single ventricle patients at any stage of management. We studied the results of management and sought to determine factors that may influence survival in patients with TAPVR in right atrial isomerism. Methods : Between February 1991 and...
