Wan Cho, Suk Min Choi, Kyu Hyung Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(11):1508-1515.   Published online November 15, 1999
Purpose : In the clinical field, the closing time of patent ductus arteriosus(PDA) varies among patients after indomethacin administration. We tried to predict it by analyzing related factors, and also by understanding what affects it. Methods : Among 30 cases of PDA at the NICU, 24 cases(male 14 cases, female 10 cases) were selected. Fifteen cases closed early(within 36 hours) and...

Purpose : The value of serum lipid in children after recovery of Kawasaki disease may be important because of the predilection of this disease for the coronary artery. Methods : We measured serum high density lipoprotein(HDL)-cholesterol, total cholesterol, triglycerides in 22 patients (mean age 38months, range 6 to 93 months) with Kawasaki disease during 10 days or less after onset and 2 months later...

Suk Min Choi, Heung Dong Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1995;38(10):1417-1421.   Published online October 15, 1995
A case of congenital hypotyroidism with echocardiographic features similar to cardiomyopathy was presented. The patient was untreated and incidentally found. In 2-D echocadiography the ventricular septum was asymmetrically hypertrophied and chest X-ray showed cardiac enlargement. After treatment with thyroid hormone, the septal hypertrophy and cardiomegaly returned to normal. Therefore, we concluded that echocardiographic study was useful for diagnosis and for following up...

The congenital lactic acidosis represent a sizable group of metabolic disorders. They are in all likelihood genetically determined, and they are clearly heterogenous. They may be considered broadly as disorders of pyruvate metabolism in which there are two general categories: defects in gluconeogenesis and defects in pyruvate oxidation. We experienced a case of congenital lactic acidosis in neonate who was diagnosed by urinary organic acid...
