Byung Yoen Kim, Young Guk Kim, Young Jun Kim, Kee Hwan Yoo, Joo Won Lee, Soon Kyum Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1995;38(5):612-618.   Published online May 15, 1995
Bone mineral densitometry is a useful procedure for the early detection of metabolic bone diseases and bone density changes caused by long term drug use. Dual energy X-ray absorpt- iometry(DEXA), a recently developed diagnostic radiologic method for evaluating bone mineral density is widely used because of its high sensitivity, easily obtaine results. and low dose radi- ation exposure. The study...

Paraquat (1, 1'-dimethy1-4, 4'dipyridium chlorde: Gramoxon¢c) was first discovered in England in 1955. It has been widely distributed for use in Korea since 1970 as a pesticide and also often the cause of accidental intoxications. The authors would like to report the following case of paraquat intoxication in a 13 year old female child admitted via emergency room with complaints...

Identification of the Source of hematuria by the Ratio of the Urinary Erythrocyte MCV to That in Blood
Young Guk Kim, Gi Chan Lee, Keun Haeng Cho, Kee Hwan Yoo, Soon Kyum Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1994;37(8):1097-1103.   Published online August 15, 1994
The frequent occurrence of hematuria in children necessitates diagnostic evaluation. Hematuria may occur with either renal or lower urinary tract disease. Clarification of the etiology of hematuria, whether microscopic or gross, is facilited by localizing the site of bleeding to the kidney(glomerular) or the lower urinary tract (non-glomerular). The mean cellular volume (MCV) of urinary red blood cells (RBCs) of...

Fifteen children, comprising 10 male and 5 female, dignosed with convulsive disorders and administered with phenobarbital for a long term period of more than 9 months but less than 84 months and 15 healthy children...
A Clinical Observation of Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia Due to ABO imcompatibility
Kang Woo Lee, Young Guk Kim, Dong Gun Park, Kee Hwan Yoo, Kwang Chul Lee, Soon Kyum Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1994;37(1):54-60.   Published online January 15, 1994
A clinical and statistical study was performed on 213 neonates of hyperbilirubinemia who were admitted to department of pediatrics of Korea University Hospital from Jan. 1989 to Jun. 1991. And we studied the difference between ABO compatible group and incompatible group, such as, day of appe5rance of hyperbilirubinemia, tendency of bilirubin concentration change, reticulocyte, hemoglobin and duration of hyperbilirubinemia. The following...
