Sunghoon Chung, Sungsin Park, Sajun Chung
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2007;50(9):891-895.   Published online September 15, 2007
Purpose : Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system and mostly develops after viral illness or vaccinations. We investigated the clinical differences and neurologic outcomes according to the distribution of the lesions on brain MRI. Methods : The study group was composed of 21 patients from January 1995 to August 2003 in Kyunghee University hospital....
The Significance of the Early Electroencephalographic Findings in Severely Asphyxiated Newborn Infants
Jong Uk Lee, Won Joung Choi, Chun Soo Kim, Sang Lak Lee, Jun Sik Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2003;46(8):784-788.   Published online August 15, 2003
Purpose : Perinatal asphyxia occurring in newborn is one of the major causes of acute mortality and chronic neurological disability in survivors. We have studied the relationship between early electroencephalography(EEG) findings and clinical course and neurologic outcome in severe asphyxiated neonates. Methods : Between the period of July 1999 and June 2002, 25 neonates who were diagnosed with severe perinatal asphyxia(1-minute...
Analysis of Auditory Brainstem Response in the Infants at High Risk for Hearing Disability
Kang Ho Cho, Myoung Jae Chey
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1995;38(10):1315-1323.   Published online October 15, 1995
Purpose : This study is performed to evaluate the clinical course, degree of hearing impairment and neurologic outcome of the infants at high risk for hearing disability. Methods : The 603 infants who had risk factors, such as severe birth asphyxia, hiperbilirubinemia requiring exchange transfusion, head and neck anomaly every low birthweight under 1500gm, family history of childhood hearing impairment, bacterial...

Jeong Lim Kim, Heung Dong Kim, Chang Jun Coe
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1991;34(7):912-920.   Published online July 31, 1991
Hypocalcemia during the newborn period is relatively common particularly in infants with predis- posing factors, such as prematurity, low birth weight, birth asphyxia and diabetic mothers and it is often manifested by various clinical findings. Some authors have reported that in some cases of the neonatal hypocalcemia, there were neurologic deficits such as irritability and convulsion, and neur- ologic sequelae on follow up. It...
Neurologic Outcome in Congenital Hypothyroidism.
Byeung Ju Jeoung, Duk Hi Kim, Chang Jun Coe, Hang Cho Kang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1988;31(7):901-913.   Published online July 31, 1988
Congenital hypothyroidism is one of the most common endocrine disease in childhood and is a major cause of mental retardation. It is clear that the earlier treatment is started, the better intellec- tual potential and the likely absence of neurological sequellae. The present study was carried out to try to define the incidence and the nature of the neurologic disorders and to examine the...
