Tae Chan Kwon, Joon Sik Kim, Sang Lak Lee, Myung Sung Kim, Geun Soo Park, Chun Soo Kim, In Joo Kim, Bin Ahn
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(3):363-368.   Published online March 15, 1998
Purpose : Many reports exist about the frequency of congenital heart disease(CHD) in the world, but according to the definition of CHD and subjects of study group, many differences existed between the reports. We conducted this study to evaluate the incidence and frequency of CHD by color Doppler echocardiography in neonate, and to suggest a preliminary model of incidence of...

Sun A Kim, Chun Soo Kim, Geun Soo Park, Myung Sung Kim, Sang Lak Lee, Joon Sik Kim, Tae Chan Kwon
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1997;40(3):413-416.   Published online March 15, 1997
Ectopia cordis is a very rare cardiac anomaly that the heart is partially or totally outside the thorax, and it was classified anatomically as 5 types-cervical, thoracocervical, thoracic (most commontype), thoracoabdominal, abdominal types. We experienced a case of ectopia cordis(thoracic type) in a newborn who had the symptom of generalized cyanosis since birth, and expired during operation due to recurrent bradycardia and hypotension. The brief...

Normal Values of Left Ventricular Mass by Echocardiography in Korean Children
Eun A Kim, Chun Soo Kim, Geun Soo Park, Myung Sung Kim, Sang Lak Lee, Joon Sik Kim, Tae Chan Kwon
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1996;39(6):797-802.   Published online June 15, 1996
Purpose : Determination of left ventricular myocardial mass with echocardiography is feasible and validated. American Society of Echocardiography(ASE) issued recommendations for the quantitation of the left ventricle by M-mode echocardiography. The purpose of this study is to determine the mean value of left ventricular mass in Korean children. Methods : We measured left ventricular mass in 498 subjects(male 289, female 209) using ASE...
Urinary Red Cell Volume in the Diagnosis of Glomerular and Non-Glomerular Heaturia in children
Jong Sul Kwon, Dong Seok Kim, Myung Sung Kim, Joon Sik Kim, Chin Moo Kang, Dong Seok Jeon
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1994;37(1):40-46.   Published online January 15, 1994
Hematuria is a important clinical sign that is a consequence of significatn renal, urologic or sytemic disease. Recently the morphology of the red cell in hematuria has been used to indicate a renal or non-renal source and also the measurement of red cell volume by red cell analyzer has been used to distinguish glomerular from non-glomerular hematuria. In this study, the...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1993;36(11):1507-1515.   Published online November 15, 1993
A clinical study was made on 12 cases of neonatal Group Bβ-hemolytic streptococcal(=GBS)meningitis, who were admitted to the department of Pediatrics, Dong-San Hospital, Keimyung University during the period of 3 years from Aug 1989 to Jul 1992. The following results were obtained 1) GBS was cultured in 12 cases(57.1%) among 21 neonatal meningitis admitted during the same period. 2) Male and female ratio...
Plasma Norepinephrine Levels in Infants and Children with Congestive Heart Failure
Sang Woog Lee, Myung Sung Kim, Sang Lak Lee, Tae Chan Kwon, Chin Moo Kang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1993;36(7):982-986.   Published online July 15, 1993
To characterize the sympathetic nervous system response to congestive heart failure in infants and children, plasma norepinephrine levels were measured in 29 patients aged 4 months to 15 years undergoing routine cardiac catheterization at Dong San Hospital, Keimyung University during the period of 4 months from November 1990 to February 1991. Plasma norepinephrine levels were significantly higher in patients with heart...
