58 cases of epidemic encephalitis admitted to the Pediatric Department of Won Kwang University Hospital during the period of August to October 1982 were studied. The results were as follows; 1)Much sequelae occured in 0~5 age group and the mortality rate was highest in 6~10 age:group. The ratio of male to female patientwas 1.76 : 1. 2) The comparison of living...

To evaluate the effects of acute starvation on blood constituents, serum amylase activity and levels of serum urea nitrogen (BUN) and protein fractions were measured in 336 normal children and 60 children acutely starved as a result of encsphalitis. The mean starvation period was 4 days. Hypoalbuminemic children were also examined. The tests revealed that starvation resulted in a significant reduction in serum amylase...

In 52 children aged form 5 to 13 years who were acutely starving from epidemic encephalitis, authors measured the level of amylase activity, BUN, GOT, GPT, alkaline phosphatase, total protein, albumin, globulin, creatinine in serum and GOT, GPT, amylase activity in CSF. And in another group of 7 children with acute viral hepatitis, GOT, GPT in serum and CSF were...

The purpose Qf this study is to presume the severity of epidemic encephalitis. 36 cases were selected among 81 cases of epidemic encephalitis admitted to Chungnam National University Hospital during Jan. 1981 to Dec. 1982, and divided into clinically mild and severe group. Two groups were compared the differences of their demographic, clinical and laboratory findings. The parameters significantly more encountered in the severe...

Epidemic encephalitis in the Korea is caused by arbovirus (Japanese encephalitis virts). And this acute illness occurs annually during the late summer and early autumn months and is more prevalent among children under 15 years with high mortality. 130 cases of epidemic encephalitis were hospitalized at the Department of Pediatrics, Chosun University Hospital, during the period of August-October, 1982. Authors investigated hemaggulutination...

A clinical observation and statistical management on 592 cases of epidemic encephalitis admitted to the department of pediatrics, Chonnam University Hospital with 10 years duration from 1971 to 1980 were carried out. The following results are obtained: 1) No periodical change was observed in annual incidence during these 10 years. 2) The annual incidence was higher when the annual average temperature was higher. Most of the...
