Clin Exp Pediatr. 2015;58(6):211-217.   Published online June 22, 2015
Purpose

Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) infection is a major cause of respiratory infection in school-aged children. Extrapulmonary manifestations of MP infection are common, but liver involvement has been rarely reported. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical characteristics of MP-associated hepatitis.

Methods

This prospective study included 1,044 pediatric patients with MP infection diagnosed serologically with MP IgM at one medical center...

Colon Perforation during Air Enema Reduction of Intussusception
Yong Kuk Kim, Hae Ra Im, Gwang Hoon Lee, Soo Jin Han, Yong Han Sun, Eell Ryoo, Kang Ho Cho, Hann Tchah, Hak Soo Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2003;46(1):37-41.   Published online January 15, 2003
Purpose : Although air enema reduction has been known as a good method of diagnosis and treatment of intussusception, it could develop colon perforation. However, there have been few studies about this complication. So we analyzed the risk factors of colon perforation during air enema reduction in patients with intussusception. Methods : We reviewed the charts of 12 colon perforation patients...

Jae Sung Son, Yang Park, Yong Han Sun, Myung Hyun Lee, Young Yull Koh
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(2):193-199.   Published online February 15, 2001
Purpose : Skin reactivity to different allergens may vary with age, since the degree and type of sensitization may be related not only to genetic factors but also to the intensity and duration of exposure to the allergens. The aim of this study was to evaluate profile of sensitization to airborne allergens according to age in children with allergic asthma. Methods...

Seon Mi Jin, Jin Hwa Jung, Yong Han Sun, Myung Hyun Lee, Joong Gon Kim, Young Yull Koh
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(1):99-109.   Published online January 15, 1998
Purpose : The release of histamine from human basophils is controlled by an intrinsic, as yet unidentified, cellular property termed “releasability.” We carried out this study to ascertain whether there was any difference in the releasability of basophils from asthmatic children compared to those from normal children. We intended also to clarify the correlation between the releasability and the atopic status of asthma. Methods :...
A Clinical Study on the Etiology and the Characteristics of Pleural Effusion in Children
Jin Hwa Jeong, Song Yi Rah, Yong Han Sun, Myung Hyun Lee, Young Yull Koh
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(1):62-73.   Published online January 15, 1998
Purpose : Many different conditions result in pleural effusions(PEs) and making the differential diagnosis of PE is difficult. The purpose of the present study was to document the change of incidence and compare the etiologies of PEs with regards to age, the sidedness and characteristics of PE. Methods : During the 10-year period from 1986 to 1995, thoracentesis was performed in 197 children with PEs...

Yong Han Sun, Ho Sung Kim, Jung Il Noh, Jung Yun Cho, Yong Soo Yun
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1996;39(3):417-422.   Published online March 15, 1996
Pulmonary artery sling is a rare vascular anomaly wherein the left pulmonary artery arises from the right pulmonary artery and then traverses between the esophagus and the trachea toward the hilum of the left lung. Associated anomalies are common, particularly those of the tracheobronchial tree, which have been found in more than 50% of patients. Cardiovascular anomalies such as persistent...
