Jung Hyun Kwon, Ji Hye Park, Hae Soon Kim, Seung Joo Lee, Mi Ae Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2005;48(3):306-309.   Published online March 15, 2005
Purpose : The aim of study is to investigate the clinical manifestations and the etiology of markedly-elevated serum alkaline phosphatase(ALP) levels in children without accompanying liver or bone disease. Methods : The serum ALP and other biochemical laboratory data of 4,989 patients attending the pediatric department of Ewha Womans University Mokdong Hospital between January 2002 to December 2002 were studied. The...

A Case of Transient Hyperphosphatasemia
Sung Kee Kim, Yong Won Park, Chong Guk Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(6):856-860.   Published online June 15, 2000
We examined a male infant with transient increase in alkaline phosphatase(ALP) activity. The 25-month-old infant was admitted to a local hospital because of pneumonia of unknown etiology. Initial laboratory investigation revealed a serum ALP of 11,260U/L, which was comparable to that of bone isoenzyme on the electrophoresis pattern. There was no evidence of hepatitis, skeletal or intestinal diseases. The hyperphosphatasemia...
6 Cases of Transient Hyperphosphatasemia of Infancy and Early Childhood
Jong Gon Oh, Dong Hyeon Choi, Kyung Eun Oh, Moon Ki Cho, Chul Sohn
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(1):105-110.   Published online January 15, 2000
Sometimes physicians and clinical pathologists find very high levels of alkaline phosphatase(ALP) activity in their patients. This condition is associated with transient, marked increase in serum ALP in healthy infants and children. It has also been described in adults. Clinical and biochemical features of transient hyperphosphatasemia in infancy and early childhood are reviewed in six patients that we have studied. The diagnosis is suggested...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(1):6-14.   Published online January 15, 1999
Purpose : To determine the reference values of hematologic and biochemical parameters of nutrition around the weaning period. Methods : From February 1996 to March 1997, several nutritional laboratory values were evaluated in 130 healthy babies and 120 inpatients in the recovery stage of acute illness at six general hospitals. Results : Reference values in 9-month-old healthy babies(range : 6-12 months) were...

Serum Alkaline Phosphatase Activity after Intravenous Administration of Albumin Preparation
June Huh, Kang Mo Ahn, Ja Wook Koo, Il Soo Ha, Hae Il Cheong, Yong Choi
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1993;36(6):830-836.   Published online June 15, 1993
Serum alkaline phosphatase(AP) activity is elevated in hepatobiliary disease, bone disease, pregnancy and certain neoplasms. Recently we experienced marked elevation of serum AP activity after administration of ablumin preparation in nephrotic patients who suffered from hypovolemic symptoms. So serum AP activity and the isoenzymes in the albumin preparations & patient뭩 serum after the administration of albumin preparation were studied. Serum...
A Study on Four Serum Enzymes in Acute Leukemia in Children.

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1986;29(2):130-142.   Published online February 28, 1986
In order to find out whether some of serum enzyme levels could be used as markers for acute leukemia in children, activities of amylase, alkaline phosphatase, 5 -nucleotidase and ribonuclease (RNase) and positive rates of these enzymes as markers for acute leukemia in children were determined in serum of patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and acute non-lymphocytic leukemia(ANLL). Since the...
Leukocyte Alkaline Phosphatase Activity in Children with leukocytosis.
Byung Giu Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1983;26(5):476-481.   Published online May 31, 1983
The leukocyte alkaline phosphatase activity in 43 children with leukocytosis who were admi竹ed to Busan National University and Busan Maryknoll Hospital from Oct. in 1980, to Mar. in 1981, was investigated histochemically with the Tomonaga’s naphtol AX-MX pho-sphate fast blue RR method. The results were summerized as follow. 1) The LAP activity in healthy children shows no variation in spite of difference in sex,...
