Hyun Sik Kang, Hyun Ju Oh, Young Ree Kim, Jae-Wang Kim, Kyung-Sue Shin
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2009;52(5):611-614.   Published online May 15, 2009
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multisystemic autoimmune disease characterized by the production of a wide range of autoantibodies, resulting in tissue damage. Although the susceptibility to SLE has been attributed to complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors, the influence of a genetic predisposition to SLE is supported by observations of familial aggregations. Family studies have found that siblings...

A Study of Receptor Expression in Leukocytes by Quantitative Fluorescence Measurement
Kyung Hyo Kim, Ju Young Seoh
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(5):637-645.   Published online May 15, 2002
Purpose : It is well known that the receptors for Fcγ moiety of IgG(FcγR) are instrumental in antibody-mediated clearance of microorganisms by granulocytes and monocytes, and immune regulation in lymphocytes. Furthermore, complement receptor-3(CR3) is also important in neutrophilic adhesion, diapedesis, and phagocytic functions. In an attempt to examine their roles in neonates, we compared the expressions of FcγRs and CR3...
The Response of Leukocytes in the Peripheral Blood Following Exchange Transfusion in the Newborn.
Young Mo Sohn, Yu Young Chang, Young Ho Kim, Kir Young Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1983;26(11):1049-1054.   Published online November 30, 1983
We have studied the hemoglobin level and. leukocyte count of 23 fullterm and 1 premature jaundiced babies soon after exchange transfusion and daily thereafter until 7 days. The resixlts are: 1) One exchange transfusion was enough in 16 patients but 8 were required more than 2times of exchange transfusion. The maximum is 6 times. 2) The postnatal age was...
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,...
A Clinical Study and Diagnostic Value of Fecal Leukocytes in Childhood Dysentery.
Y B Kim, C I Abn
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1982;25(10):1022-1038.   Published online October 31, 1982
Ninety four cases of dysentery who were admitted to the pediatric department of Kyung Hee University Hospital from the 1st Jan. 1979 to the 31st Oct. 1981 were analyzed clinically and bacteriologically. At the same time, stools from subjects with diarrhea were examined microscopically for leukocytes using Wright stain to confirm its diagnestic value. The results are as follows: 1. The causes of the dysenteries were:...
Total Leukocyte and Polymorphonuclear Cell Counts in Relation to Gestational Age During the First 72 hours of Life.
E Boong Kwon
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1981;24(6):509-516.   Published online June 15, 1981
Serial total leukocyte and polymorphonuclear cell(PMN) counts ： were performed on 201healthy infants during- the first 72 hours of life in order to study difference according to gestational ages and to establish normal values at various postnatal periods. The subjects were divided into three groups according to the gestational ages, above 38 weeks (group I ), 32 weeks to 38...
Correlation between Body Temperature C-reactive Protein, Erythrocyte Sedimention Rate and Leukocytes in Infections of Infancy and Childhood.
W H Choi, S H Kim, I K Paik, C M Kang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1981;24(5):451-458.   Published online May 15, 1981
Body temperature and several laboratory tests including C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, leukocyte count and the percentage of neurophil leukocytes were determined on total 372 cases(male:221, female:151) of infectious disease which were admitted to the pediatric department of presbyterian Medical Center, Daegu, Korea during the period of 1 year and 7 months from January 1978 to July 1979. Following results...
