Changes in Auditory Brainstem Resposes in Hyperbilirubinemic Neonates Before and after Exchange Transfussion and Phototherapy.
Chong Woo Bae, Young Ho Ra, Sa Jun Chung, Chang Il Ahn
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1988;31(5):547-554.   Published online May 31, 1988
More recently, several studies of newborns involving ABR testing have demonstrated abnormalities following an exposure to moderate or severe hyperbilirubinemia. Jaundice in the early neonatal period is associated with significant transient aberrations of ABR, which suggested transient brain- stem encephalopathy. So, many authors mentioned that ABR may be a useful tool for the monitoring of early biliubin toxicity in infants who were at risk...
Developmental Changes of Auditory Brainstem Responses in Children.
Jeong Sik Min, Yeong Ho Ra, Chong Woo Bae, Sa Jun Chung, Chang Il Ahn
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1987;30(12):1387-1400.   Published online December 31, 1987
Auditory Brainstem Response(ABR) has been found to be useful for evaluating objective assessment of hearing thresholds, maturation of the brainstem and neurological disorders in the brainstem. Therefore it is essential to define normal ranges and accurate changes in the wave form of the ABR in children. This study was undertaken with the analysis of 243 ABR in children with normal otological, developmental, neurological...

Myeong Yeon Lee, Byoung Soo Cho, Sa Jun Chung, Yong Mook Choi, Chang Il Ahn
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1987;30(6):640-650.   Published online June 30, 1987
This study was undertaken to evaluate the significance of brain CT in children with meningitis. The findings of brain CT in 71 children with meningitis were evaluated in relation to the clinical outcome. We divided 71 cases into 5 groups according to clinical outcome on discharge, that is, Group I: Recovery. Group II: Discharge with improvement. Group III: Discharge with residual sequalae. Group IV:...

A Case of Recurrent Bacterial Meningitis Secondary to the Defect of Stapes Footplate.
Soon Hee Eom, Joo Hong Cha, Byoung Soo Cho, Sa Jun Chung, Chang Il Ahn, Chang Il Cha
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1986;29(7):779-783.   Published online July 31, 1986
With the dramatic lowering the mortality rate of bacterial meningitis since the introduction of antibacterial agents, multiple attacks of bacterial meningitis no longer are a curiosity. So multiple attacks of bacterial meningitis may be the only indication of the existence of an abnormal communication between the nasopharynx or ear and the meningeal space and such a communication must be found. We...
A Case of Periodic Paralysis.
In Hwa Lee, Sung Man Kim, Byoung Soo Cho, Sa Jun Chung, Chang II Ahn, Kyung Hoi Ahn
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1985;28(5):510-513.   Published online May 31, 1985
Periodic paralysis is a group of diseases of unknown cause characterized by recurrent attacks of weakness or paralysis of the limb muscles, accompanied by loss of deep reflexes and failure of the muscles to respond to electrical stimulation. We have experienced a case of periodic paralysis in a 8-year-old boy who had frequent attacks of flaccid paralysis of the trunk and...
A Case of Neonatal Group B Streptococcal Meningitis.

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1984;27(10):1011-1017.   Published online October 31, 1984
Since 1970, the group B streptococcus has become significant cause of neonatal septicemia and meningitis. Two clinically and epidemiologically distinct types of illness have been described among neonate and infants, that is early and late onset type. We have recently experienced a case of late onset group B streptococcal infection, presented as meningitis and confirmed by Slidex Strepto-Kit. We believe...

Kwang Shim, Ook Jung Kang, Sa Jun Chung, Chang Il Ahn
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1984;27(7):725-732.   Published online July 31, 1984
This study was attempted to reveal the clinical and electrcencephalcgraphic findings of febrile convulsion in children. The subjects were 236 cases, from 6 mos. of age to 15 years of age, who visited to Kyung Hee University Hospital and were diagnosed as febrile convulsion between Jan. 1978 and Aug. 1983. They were classified into 2 categories; simple febrile convulsion (SFC)...
Role of Lumbar Puncture in Children with First Febrile Convulsion.
Kyu Chul Choi, Byoung Soo Cho, Sa Jun Chung, Yong Mook Choi, Chang Il Ahn
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1984;27(7):718-724.   Published online July 31, 1984
To assess the role of lumbar puncture in the children with their first febrile convulsion, the results of lumbar puncture in 154 children for a 3-year period were reviewed. In the frequency of the causes of febrile convulsion, meningitis and encephalitis were the most common (34.4%) and upper respiratory tract infection was the next(26.0%). The comparison and observations between the...

The asplenia syndrome is rare, characterized by congenital abscence of spleen, cardiovascular anomalies and other malformations or malpositions such as total or partial situs inversus, symmetrical lobulation of the liver and/or lung. Associated multiple complex cardiovascular anomalies include common atrioventricular canal, pulmonary stenosis or atresia, anomalous venous drainage and transposition of great vessels. Two-dimensional echocardiography allows the accurate non invasive...
