Etiology of Community-acquired Bacteremia in Healthy Children
Hyung Tae Kim, Hyun Oh Jang, Jin Soo Moon, Seung Yeon Nam, Dong Wook Kim, Chong Guk Lee, Chong Rae Cho
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2005;48(7):716-722.   Published online July 15, 2005
Purpose : A full view of the spectrum of all bacterial diseases in healthy children is essential to the establishment of public health priorities. Accurate information on the relative importance of the various pathogens in terms of the age of the affected patients, the site of infection and the case fatality rate are valuable to the clinician in choosing antimicrobial...
A Clinical Study on the Etiologies of Acute Seizures in Children Who Visited Emergency Department
Jung Il Cho, Dong Wook Kim, Hyun Oh Jang, Jin Soo Moon, Seung Yeon Nam, Seung Yeon Nam
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2004;47(12):1312-1318.   Published online December 15, 2004
Purpose : Although it is important to know the etiologies of childhood seizures according to age, clinical studies on this topic have been few. The present study was therefore designed to investigate the causes of acute childhood seizures. We hope this study will be helpful in the diagnosis and management of children with seizures. Methods : This study was retrospectively undertaken...
A Clinical Study on Benign Convulsions with Mild Gastroenteritis
Jung Il Cho, Dong Wook Kim, Hyun Oh Jang, Jin Soo Moon, Seung Yeon Nam, Chong Guk Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2004;47(12):1306-1311.   Published online December 15, 2004
Purpose : 'Benign convulsions with mild gastroenteritis(BCwMG)' is afebrile seizures associated with gastroenteritis without dehydration or electrolyte imbalance in young children aged almost 6 months to 3 years. Because seizures can occur repeatedly, patients can be misdiagnosed with epilepsy. Therefore, understanding the characteristics of this disease is thought to be important. This study was carried out to investigate the clinical...
Measles, Mumps, and Rubella Immunization in Children with Egg Allergies
Seung Yeon Nam, Eun Hee Jung, Jin A Jung, Yong Min Park, Kyoung Hee Jeon, Ju Suk Lee, Gi Young Jang, Kang Mo Ahn, Sang Il Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(9):1031-1035.   Published online September 15, 2001
Purpose : The safety of MMR(Measles, Mumps, and Rubella) immunization to children with egg allergies has been debated for decades because the live attenuated virus used in the vaccine is grown in cultured chick-embryo fibroblasts. Many studies that investigated adverse reactions to MMR vaccine have been reported abroad, but there has been no report in Korean children. So, this study is aimed at determining...
A Clinical Study of Adenoviral Respiratory Infection in Children
Hong Keun Kim, Se Chang Ham, Seung Yeon Nam, Young Jae Koh, Kang Mo Ahn, Sang Il Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(2):195-202.   Published online February 15, 2000
Purpose : Adenoviral respiratory infection can develop a life threatening condition similar to severe bacterial pneumonia. Despite adequate intensive care, this infection progresses to acute respiratory distress syndrome and causes permanent lung damage in some patients. In this study, we analyzed clinical features and long-term follow-up clinical data of this infection in children. Methods : Forty-seven cases of inpatients were diagnosed...
Tuberculin Response in Infants after BCG Vaccination during Neonatal Stage
Jeong Hee Kim, Dae Hyun Lim, Byung Kwan Son, Sei Woo Chung,, Jeong Gyu Kim, Seung Yeon Nam, Sang Il Lee, Jin A Son
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(11):1502-1507.   Published online November 15, 1999
Purpose : Mantoux test was widely used to identify the tuberculosis. But no reliable method exists for distinguishing tuberculin reactions caused by previous BCG vaccination from those caused by mycobacterial infections. So we studied Mantoux response in infants who had received BCG vaccination in the first month of life. Methods : Mantoux testing was carried out in 143 healthy infants...

The Effect of Low-Dose Dopamine on the Renal Function of Asphyxiated Neonates
Seung Yeon Nam, Eun Ae Par, Seung Joo Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(12):1685-1692.   Published online December 15, 1998
Purpose : Low-dose dopamine(0.5-3μg/kg/min) increases renal blood flow, glomerular filtration rate and natriuresis and has protective and therapeutic effects on oliguric renal failures. Asphyxia is the most common cause of acute renal failure in neonates. But the protective effects of dopamine have never been reported in asphyxiated neonates. So we reported the effects of low-dose dopamine on the renal function...
Normal Predicted Values of Pulmonary Function Test in Healthy Korean Children
Seung Yeon Nam, Kyung Hyo Kim, Young Mi Hong, Gyoung Hee Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(3):338-345.   Published online March 15, 1998
Purpose : We performed a pulmonary function test with simple, computerized spirometry composed of pneumotachometry and evaluated the predicted normal values of air flow rates and lung volumes in healthy Korean children. We calculated each of the simple and complex linear and logarithmic regression equations setting the predicted values. Methods : Four hundred and fifty-two healthy children were enrolled from December, 1994 to August, 1995....
