X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) is a rare peroxisomal disorder, that is rapidly progressive, neurodegenerative, and recessive, and characteristically primary affects the central nervous system white matter and the adrenal cortex. X-ALD is diagnosed basaed on clinical, radiological, and serological parameters, including elevated plasma levels of very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA), such as C24:0 and C26:0, and high C24:0/C22:0 and C26:0/C22:0...

Keon Su Lee, Joon Won Kang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2010;53(4):571-578.   Published online April 15, 2010
Purpose : To evaluate the efficacy and safety of levetiracetam adjunctive therapy for reducing the rate of seizure frequency in children with intractable pediatric epilepsy. Methods : We reviewed the medical records of 86 patients with intractable pediatric epilepsy who visited our hospital between March 1989 and February 2009. Levetiracetam was included in the previous anticonvulsant regimen for at least 6...

The Effect of Anticonvulsants on Serum Copper and Zinc Concentrations
Hee Jeong Jeong, Hye Won Youn, Keon Su Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2005;48(4):406-410.   Published online April 15, 2005
Purpose : Anticonvulsants have a number of side effects and some of them may be attributed to a disturbance of serum trace metal homeostasis.

A Study of HLA-DQA Genotyping of Hair DNA Using the PCR Method
Jae Hong You, Keon Su Lee, Jong Woo Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1993;36(8):1156-1164.   Published online August 15, 1993
The characterization of genetic variation at the level of DNA has generated significant advances in gene mapping and disease diagnosis, and forensic identification of individuals. It is now possible to identify individual DNA from various tissue specimens, like hair, using the PCR and oligonucleotide probes. To date, however, the number of hairs needed, the preservation conditions, and the kinds of hair...
