Chung-Hyuk Yim, Gun-Ha Kim, Baik-Lin Eun
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2017;60(10):312-319.   Published online October 20, 2017
Purpose

To evaluate the usefulness of the Korean Developmental Screening Test (K-DST) for infants and children for developmental delay assessment.

Methods

This study was based on retrospective studies of the results of the K-DST, Preschool Receptive-Expressive Language Scale (PRES), Sequenced Language Scale for Infants (SELSI), Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS), Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (M-CHAT), electroencephalography, magnetic resonance imaging, and extensive...

Hyung Eun Yim, Kee Hwan Yoo, Eun Soo Bae, Young Sook Hong, Joo Won Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2016;59(1):8-15.   Published online January 22, 2016
Purpose

Nephrogenesis is normally accompanied by a tightly regulated and efficient vascularization. We investigated the effect of angiotensin II inhibition on angiogenesis in the developing rat kidney.

Methods

Newborn rat pups were treated with enalapril (30 mg/kg/day) or vehicle (control) for 7 days after birth. Renal histological changes were checked using Hematoxylin & Eosin staining. We also investigated the intrarenal expression of vascular...

Nutritional strategy of early amino acid administration in very low birth weight infants
Byong Sop Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2015;58(3):77-83.   Published online March 20, 2015

Relative to a fetus of the same gestational age, very low birth weight (VLBW) infants are more likely to be underfed and to undergo growth restriction during their early hospital stay. The current trend towards "early and aggressive" nutritional strategies in VLBW infants aims to overcome the early nutritional deficiency and thereby boost postnatal catch-up growth, simultaneously improving long-term neurodevelopmental...

Effect of angiotensin II inhibition on the epithelial to mesenchymal transition in developing rat kidney
Hyung Eun Yim, Kee Hwan Yoo, In Sun Bae, Young Sook Hong, Joo Won Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2009;52(8):944-952.   Published online August 15, 2009

Purpose:To investigate the effects of angiotensin II inhibition on the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) in the developing kidney, we tested the expression of EMT markers and nestin in angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor-treated kidneys. Methods:Newborn rat pups were treated with enalapril (30 mg/kg/d) or a vehicle for 7 days. Immunohistochemistry for the expression of α-smooth muscle actin (SMA), E-cadherin, vimentin, and nestin were...
Case Report
A Case of Partial Inverted Duplication of Chromosome 7q
Hyun Ji Kim, So Young Lee, Mi Young Kim, Chung Sun Baek, Won Duck Kim, Dong Seok Lee, Doo Kwun Kim, Sung Min Choi
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2003;46(5):510-513.   Published online May 15, 2003
Duplication of chromosome 7q has been reported as either partial or complete. Partial 7q duplication was first described by Carpentier in 1972. Pure partial duplication of the long arm of chromosome 7 is extremely rare and only 16 cases with a pure partial duplication of different 7q segment have been described in the literature. Pure partial duplication of the long...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1983;26(10):996-1003.   Published online October 31, 1983
The study was made of 52 cases of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia receiving blood exchange transfusion at St. Benedict Hospital from January 1977 to June 1981 with the following results; 1) 34.6% of total exchanged patients were born at St. Benedict hospital. Remains were born at outside. 2) 27 patients(51.9%) returned for follow up, 21 patients(40.4%) not returned for follow up 4 patients (7.7%) had died. 3) The...
