Min Hee Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2008;51(3):233-236.   Published online March 15, 2008
In recent years, Korea has experienced a steadily declining birth rate, which is a serious social problem in the country. Although living conditions have improved, the birth rates for low birth weight infants and preterm babies has increased because more and more women choose to give birth later in life and the social environment has changed. The rise in low...

A Study of Relation between Stable Microbubble Rating and Surfactant Derivatives(SurfactenⓇ : Phospholipid :, ExosurfⓇ : Dipalmitoyl-Phosphatidyl Choline) Concentration in Vitro
Myung Ho Oh, Kee Hyuck Kim, Jae Gun Sim, Min Hee Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1997;40(7):939-944.   Published online July 15, 1997
Purpose : With the recent advent of surfactant replacement therapy, there is an increasing need for a rapid and reliable test to predict respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) immediately before or at birth. There are many investigations and methods for the detection of RDS in prenatal or postnatal period. The stable microbubble rating test (SMR-test) developed by pattle et al. is rapid and simple test...
Effect of Meconium Components on Haemophilus influenzae Growth by Surfactan
Min Hee Kim, Sang In Chung
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1997;40(3):327-335.   Published online March 15, 1997
Purpose : Meconium is a complex mixture with a potential variable composition, it is difficulty to determine which components of meconium are responsible for the surfactant inhibition. We previous reported that Surfactant-TA and Exosurf almost completely inhibited the growth of Haemophilus influenzae at the concentration of 100% without apparent difference in the efficiency.In this study, We have determined the effect of...

Detection of Enterovirus in Patients with Aseptic Meningitis by Reverse Transcription and Polymerase Chain Reaction
Souck Joong Yoon, Sung Jin Hong, Young Hyuk Lee, Min Hee Kim, Kyo Sun Kim, Kyu Hyun Park, Jae Myun Lee, Won Young Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1994;37(9):1226-1234.   Published online September 15, 1994
The aim of this study was to determine the applicability of reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction(RT/PCR) for routine diagnostic use and for the detection of enteroviral mentigitis, Primers were selected in the highly conserved part of the 5'-non-coding region of the enteroviral genome. Enteroviral RNA was detected by the RT/PCR in routinely collected cerebrospinal fluids(CSF) of patients with aseptic...
A study on the length of the human umbilical cord.
Min Hee Kim, Young Hyuk Lee, Kyo Sun Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1991;34(12):1641-1646.   Published online December 31, 1991
A short umbilical cord is defined as 35 cm or less, whereas a long cord is 80 cm or more. Short umbilical cords have been associated with a delay in the second stage of labor, irregular fetal heart tones, placental abruption, rupture of the umbilical cord, inversion of the uterus, birth asphyxia, umbilical hernia and long umbilical cord have been associated more frequently...
A case of atypical neurofibromatosis type 1.
Eun Joo Choi, Young Hyuk Lee, Min Hee Kim, Kyo Sun Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1991;34(7):1034-1039.   Published online July 31, 1991
Almost of all patients with neurofibromatosis type I show caf6-au-lait macules on their skin. These macules are thought to be early sign of neurofibromatosis in childhood. We experienced a case of neurofibromatosis type I in a 10-year-old-boy who did not have caf6-au-lait macules, but progressive psychomotor retardation, short attention span, hyperactivity and megalencephaly. The brain C-T findings showed diffuse cerebromalacia and ventriculomegaly. We confirmed the...
Clinical significance of mega cisterna magna.
Young Hyuk Lee, Min Hee Kim, Kyo Sun Kim, Hae Jeong Jeon, Jeong Hee Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1991;34(7):971-977.   Published online July 31, 1991
The mega cistema magna is a congenital developmental malformation. The size of the cistema magna and the criterion of the mega cistema is still debatable. A clinical study had been performed on 12 children with mega cistema magna diagnosed by computed tomography scan from January 1980 to December 1990. The results are summarized as follows: 1) Among 4900 consecutive unselected computed tomography scans, twelve cases with...
A Case of Pulmonary Lymphangiectasis Associated with Chylothorax.
Min Hee Kim, Jae Kyoung Lee, Oh Bae Chun, Byoung Hoon Yoo, Jae Hyung Yoo
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1987;30(4):422-426.   Published online April 30, 1987
Congenital pulmonary lymphangiectasis is a rare abnormality usually becoming manifest at birth and almost invariably fatal in neonatal period or early infancy. Chylothorax is an infrequent manifestation of this disease. We report a patient with pulmonary lymphangiectasis, 3 year old male, who had been suffered from persistent respiratory distress since 7 days after birth, in whom the diagnosis was suggested by the appearance of...

Three Cases of Scalded Skin Syndrome
Jong Won woo, min hee kim, dong sun oh, young chang tockgo
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1980;23(9):761-765.   Published online September 15, 1980
The authors experienced three cases of scalded skin syndrome; which diagnosis were confirmed by characteristic clinical manifestation, tissue culture and histopathological findings of tissue biopsied. Two of three cases were drugs induced and other one was caused by staphylococcus aureus phage H. These cases were completely recovered with systemic and local supportive therapies. The authors presented these cases and reviewed the referential literature on the scalded vskin...
