Clin Exp Pediatr. 2014;57(1):41-45.   Published online January 31, 2014
Purpose

Renal size is an important indicator to determine adequate organ growth in children. The aim of this study was to estimate renal size with Technesium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) scan and propose a simple formula for predicting renal length in normal Korean children.

Methods

This study included 346 children (148 boys and 198 girls; age range, 1 month to 17 years) in whom...

On the Significance of Blood Sampling Time in Neonatal Neurologic Prognosis Using Creatine Kinase BB

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(5):669-676.   Published online May 15, 1998
Purpose : To investigate the cut-off value of creatine kinase(CK) BB according to blood sampling time in predicting neonatal prognosis, we studied the time-related releasing pattern of CK isoenzymes after birth asphyxia. Methods : CK was measured within 1 hour and at 6-10 hours after birth from 45 newborn infants who were suspected to be perinatal asphyxia or fetal distress. The...

Mi Kyung Son, Te Kyung Lee, He Jin Choeh, Kyuchul Choeh
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1996;39(7):1015-1019.   Published online July 15, 1996
We have experienced a case of congenital pyloric atresia associated with epidermolysis bullosa in a premature newborn who was born at the gestation period of 33+3 week. She showed a few blisters on left ankle at birth and the easy formation of blisters involving the area of trauma or friction with depigmentation after healing. The histologic finding of the lesion showed junctional epidermolysis bullosa. Abdominal...

Significance of Creatine Kinase Isoenzymes for Neurologic Outcome in Perinatal Asphyxia
Mi Kyung Son, Eun Sik Kang, Sun Hi Jung, Kyuchul Choeh
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1996;39(7):924-933.   Published online July 15, 1996
Purpose : To investigate the usefulness of the serum Creatine kinase(CK), especially brain typical creatine kinase(CK-BB) as an indicator of brain damage extent, mortality and long term nurologic sequelae, the study was done. Methods : CK and CK isoenzyme activites were measured at 6-10 hours after birth in 160 asphyxiated newborn infants who admitted in Eulji General Hospital from August 1990 to July 1994. Infants...
