Suck Kyu Hur, Moon Sang Park, Mee Kyung Namgoong, Hwang Min Kim, Jae Seung Yang, Baek Keun Lim, Jong Soo Kim, Myung Seo Kang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1992;35(11):1514-1519.   Published online November 15, 1992
This study was conducted to find out the significance of nucleated red blood cell (NRBC) in neonates, especially associated with acute or chronic perinatal asphyxia. So, we compared NRBC counts in various neonatal groups, such as normal newborn, small for gestational age (SGA), premature, acute perinatal asphyxia, & hyaline membrane disease (HMD). In the first day of life, we examined...
Clinical observation of small for gestational age.
Young Zong Oh, Cheol Hee Hwang, Young Youn Choi, Young Joung Woo, Tai Ju Hwang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1991;34(1):41-48.   Published online January 31, 1991
Small for gestaional age (SGA) is an entity which we have been slow to recognize in both pediatrics and obstetrics, despite its common occurrence and rather dramatic clinical manifestations. The goal of this study is to be enable all physicians involved in perinatal medical care focus their attention on the fact that infants of the same size but very different gestational ages are...
The Apgar Score and Umbilical Arterial pH in the Newborn.
Hoo Jae Hann, Eun Ae Park, Kyung Hee Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1990;33(8):1048-1056.   Published online August 31, 1990
In this prospective study, the relation between the Apgar scores and umbilical arterial pH at birth was assessed. 314 newborns of gestational age 24 to 42 weeks were included in this study; (95 were preterm and 219 were full-term) The l and 5-minute Apgar scores were directly related to gestational age. In preterm babies, the Apgar scores tend to be low in spite...
Correlation between the Gestational Age and Development of Renal Function in Preterm Infants.
Kyu Gap Hwang, Chong Ku Yun
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1984;27(4):326-334.   Published online April 30, 1984
In neonatal period, there is a rapid increament of renal function. About this issue, there were many studies in fullterm infants. But it is rare in preterm infnats in Korea. From April to September in 1983, prosepctive study was done for the evaluation of correlationship between the gestational age and development of renal function in 14 preterm infants. The results...
Simplification of Ballard'S Scoring System in Clinical Estimation of Gestational Age in Newborn Infants.
Woong Heum Kim, Jung Hwan Choi, Chong Ku Yun, Yong Ik Kim

Clinically, it is often required to identify that neonates are small, appropriate, or large-for- gestational age, since the clinical course, outcome, and problems are quite different in each group of infants. For this, accurate estimation of gestational age is required in addition to birth weight. Several methods to assess the gestational age based on the physical and neurological char- acteristics of neonates have been developed...
Fetal Weight for Gestational Period and Postnatal Weight Gain of Low Birth Weight Gain of Low Birth Wight Infant.
Jung Tae Kim, Kong In Kwon, Tae Ju Hwang, Hyung Suk Byun, Chull Shon
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1983;26(2):111-117.   Published online February 28, 1983
Fetal weight for gestational period were elaborated through establishment of the birth weight-gestational age tables in 1836 Korean newborn infants between 28〜42 weeks of gestational age. Mean, standard deviation and the 10th, 25th, 75th, and 90th percentile were calculated. In comparison our data with those of 1970, there were significant increment of the birth weight of Korean infants, especially over 33...
Estimation of Fetal Growth by Measurement of Birth Weight for Gestational Age in Newborn.
Ja Young Park, Joong Gon Kim, Keun Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1982;25(7):649-655.   Published online July 31, 1982
Birth weight and gestational age are two important factors in assessing the neonatal mortality and morbidity. We collected the birth weights of 10,242 newborns who were born at Ewha Womans University Hospital from June, 1976 to June, 1981, including birth weight and gestational age. Mean birth weight with standard deviation for each gestational age and fetal growth curve are presented...
Clinical Assessment of Gestational Age in the Newborn Infant by Ballard's Scoring System.
Jung Hwan Choi, Yong Ik Kim, Choug Ku Yun
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1981;24(11):1046-1056.   Published online November 15, 1981
In recent years, there has been a rapidly increasing interest; in babies whose birthweight is low because their intrauterine growth has been retarded and it has been recognized that the clinical problems of these 'small-for-dates' infants differ from those of true prematures. Although it is very difficult to differentiate 'small-for-dates' infants from true prematures, it can be made readily if...
Total Leukocyte and Polymorphonuclear Cell Counts in Relation to Gestational Age During the First 72 hours of Life.
E Boong Kwon
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1981;24(6):509-516.   Published online June 15, 1981
Serial total leukocyte and polymorphonuclear cell(PMN) counts : were performed on 201healthy infants during- the first 72 hours of life in order to study difference according to gestational ages and to establish normal values at various postnatal periods. The subjects were divided into three groups according to the gestational ages, above 38 weeks (group I ), 32 weeks to 38...
