Clin Exp Pediatr. 2005;48(11):1252-1255.   Published online November 15, 2005
Abnormalities in the levels of thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG) are not associated with clinical disease and they do not require treatment. Congenital TBG deficiency is inherited in an X-linked manner. To date, some complete and partial TBG variants and one polymorphism have been identified by analysis of the TBG gene. Two male neonates were referred to us because of their low...

Ja Young Hwang, Se Young Seo, Seong Hoon Hahn, So Young Kim, Hyun Hee Kim, Won-Bae Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2004;47(11):1193-1197.   Published online November 15, 2004
Purpose : Acute gastroenteritis in infancy is a very common disease with a frequency of a billion diarrhea per year, leading to 3 to 5 million deaths. Since the etiology is not always clear, the treatment plan can be quite difficult to make. The laboratory examinations of stool culture, along with complete blood counts may sometimes be helpful to find...

Purpose : We aimed to evaluate the abnormalities of chest radiographs including atelectasis in children who were admitted with bronchial asthma. Methods : We retrospectively analyzed the 357 chest radiographs and the clinical and laboratory features of the 144 children with asthma, who were admitted at Daejoen St. Mary's Hospital from April 1994 to May 1998. Results : Clinical and laboratory...

Imperforated hymen, vaginal atresia or high transverse vaginal septum are caused by incomplete vaginal canalization. The infant may be present with distention of the vagina and the uterus with glandular secretions stimulated by maternal estrogens, known as hydrometrocolpos. We report two cases of hydrometrocolpos. In the first case, distal vaginal atresia with cystovaginal fistula was revealed by a contrast fluoroscope...

A Clinical Study of Atypical Kawasaki Disease - A Rate of Coronary Artery Involvement -
Jin-Sook Kim, Young-Yoo Kim, Jong-Wan Kim, Won-Bae Lee, Jin-Han Kang, Kyung-Tai Whang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(1):70-77.   Published online January 15, 2000
Purpose : Without a specific diagnostic method, the clinical diagnostic criteria for atypical Kawasaki disease is known as the presence of coronary artery changes in a patient who did not meet the already estabilished clinical criteria. With this criteria, we are put into dilemma because atypical Kawasaki disease should exhibit coronary artery disease. So, we demonstrated the rate of coronary artery involvement in atypical...
Changes of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function in Normal Children
Jin-Hee Kim, Young-Yoo Kim, Won-Bae Lee, Jong-Wan Kim,, Kyung-Tai Whang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(8):1063-1070.   Published online August 15, 1999
Purpose : Doppler echocardiography provides a noninvasive technique for the evaluation of left ventricular diastolic function. This study was performed to define the normal pattern of left ventricular diastolic filling by real-time Doppler flow mapping, and to determine how this pattern changes with aging in normal children. Methods : The changes in diastolic function in 89 normal subjects less than 15...
