Su-A Shin, Seung Yang, Jae-Won Oh, Ha-Baik Lee, Cheol-Eon Park, Jung-Kyun Kwan
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2006;49(4):410-416.   Published online April 15, 2006
Purpose : Ciliary abnormalities of the respiratory system usually accompany recurrent or persistent respiratory diseases such as paranasal sinusitis, bronchiectasis, rhinitis, and/or otitis media, since they cause certain derangements in ciliary cleaning activities. This disease is usually inherited by autosomal recessive trait, but may also be found to be acquired or transient in rare cases after heavy exposure to pollutants,...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(10):1372-1379.   Published online October 15, 2000
Purpose : It is generally accepted that air pollution can cause acute respiratory diseases. This study assessed the relationship between air pollution and development of pediatric respiratory diseases in Inchon city. Methods : We studied a number of pediatric patients who developed respiratory diseases such as bronchial asthma, bronchiolitis, URI, bronchitis and pneumonia and visited the Inha University Hospital emergency room...
Pulmonary Air Leak Syndrome Associated with Respiratory Diseasein Infancy and Childhood
Hae Kyung Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1997;40(2):189-193.   Published online February 15, 1997
Purpose : Pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum and subcutaneous emphysema rarely complicate pediatric respiratory disease such as bronchial asthma, bronchiolitis, bronchopneumonia. But physicians unfamiliar with natural history of these complications may feel that surgical intervention is necessary.

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1989;32(8):1051-1056.   Published online August 31, 1989
LDH which are widely distributed in mammalian tissues, being rich in myocardium, kidney, liver and muscle, and which is well known to catalyzes the reversible oxidation of lactate to pyruvate. We investigated serum LDH & Isoenzyme changes in 317 cases of children with respiratory disease and in 117 cases of healthy children as control. The objectives of this study were to ascertain whether serum...
