Yong Seok Lee, Kwang Su Oh, San Ho Kim, Bock Keun Kee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1986;29(1):45-50.   Published online January 31, 1986
Acute poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis is generally known to be the most common cause of acute nephritis in children and secondary to an immunologic mechanism. esp. activating complement system. And so there have been several reports on the change of serum complement levels in the course this disease. This paper reports on observation of change of serum C3 & C4levels and its clinical significance...

Plasma Renin Activities in Patients with Acute Poststreptococcal Glomerulonephritis.
S Y Chang, B H Oh, W G Lee, C M Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1982;25(4):329-333.   Published online April 30, 1982
Acute poststreptococcal glomeruonephritis is the most common non-pyogenic renal disease in childhood. The main clinical manifestations are edema, hematuria and hypertension. During the course of the disease, acute renal failure and hypertension are most common complications. Hypertension may give rise to encephalopasthy in small percentage of patients. Yet, the precise mechanism of its pathogenesis has remained uncertain. Increased cardiac output...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1981;24(7):659-665.   Published online July 15, 1981
Patients with acute glomerulonephritis often are seen with signs suggesting heart failure. Whether these signs are due to fluid overload secondary to kidney damage only, or whether there is associated myocardial damage has not been elucidated. Twenty-two children with acute glomerulonephritis were studied by echocardiography during edematous phase of disease. Left ventricular function was normal in all childrem. The most...
