Purpose : To assess the usefulness of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), karyotyping, brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP), electroencephalogram (EEG), tandem mass screening test, and newborn metabolic screening test in children with language delay for diagnosing underlying diseases. Methods : From January 2000 to June 2007, a retrospective chart review was performed for 122 children with language delay who visited the...
Usefulness of DTI-based three dimensional corticospinal tractography in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy
Ji Hyun Yeo, Su Min Son, Eun Sil Lee, Han Ku Moon
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2009;52(1):99-104.   Published online January 15, 2009
Purpose : Magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging-based three-dimensional fiber tractography (DTI-FT) is a new method which demonstrates the orientation and integrity of white matter fibers in vivo. However, clinical application on children with cerebral palsy is still under investigation. We present various abnormal patterns of DTI-FT findings and accordance rate with clinical findings in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy, to...
Comparison of Epileptic Seizures between Preterm and Term-born Epileptic Children with Periventricular Leukomalacia
Hee Jeong Jeong, Eun Sil Lee, Han Ku Moon
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2005;48(11):1225-1231.   Published online November 15, 2005
Purpose : This study compares the first epileptic seizures between preterm and term-born children with periventricular leukomalacia and epilepsy. Methods : From 108 cases having lesions of high signal intensity around the ventricles in T2 weighted imaging of a brain magnetic resonance study, we selected 37 cases that showed epileptic seizures two times or more and divided them into the...
Comparison of Efficacy of Steroid Oint with Different Potency in Phimosis
In Ok Hwang, Eun Sil Lee, Yong Hoon Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2005;48(6):594-598.   Published online June 15, 2005
Purpose : Phimosis is the inability to retract the foreskin of the penis over the glans of the penis. Even though phimosis is not pathogenic, the presence of phimosis is known to increase the risk of urinary tract infection in infancy. The use of topical steroids has been advocated as a safe and economical alternative to surgical intervention. The purpose...
Evaluation of Intrauterine Growth in Neonates with Congenital Heart Disease
Ji Hyun Yeo, Hee Jung Lee, Eun Sil Lee, Young Hwan Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2004;47(7):746-750.   Published online July 15, 2004
Purpose : Intrauterine growth retardatation(IUGR) is very important because of high mortality and morbidity in the neonatal period. We studied the intrauterine growth retardation pattern in neonates with congenital heart disease(CHD). Methods : One hundred seventeen cases with CHD(acyanotic, 73 cases; cyanotic, 44 cases) who had no other congenital malformation or maternal diseases that might affect fetal growth were enrolled in...

Eun Jung Doe, Eun Sil Lee, Son Moon Shin
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(11):1332-1339.   Published online November 15, 2002
Purpose : Through a survey undertaken among doctors practicing pediatric patients in primary medical facilities on nutrition during infancy, the present study was done to determine whether these doctors were giving appropriate advice on infant nutrition. Methods : We visited pediatric specialists(group one) and non-pediatric specialists or general practitioners(group two) who were practicing in Daegu to ask them...
Evaluation of the Severity in Patients with Bronchial Asthma Using FEF25-75%
Sun Yoon Jung, Eun Sil Lee, Young Hwan Lee, Han Ku Moon
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(8):916-921.   Published online August 15, 2001
Purpose : Spirometry, because of its simplicity and reproducibility, has been used to evaluate pulmonary function in childhood asthma. We investigated whether FEF25-75% is the most sensitive parameter among other spirometric parameters in the diagnosis of pulmonary function and airway obstruction. Methods : This study included 32 children with asthma. We recorded values of spirometry(FVC, FEV1, PEFR, and FEF25-75%) before and...

Yong Hoon Park, Eun Sil Lee, Han Ku Moon, Hyung Bae Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(7):808-816.   Published online July 15, 2001
Purpose : Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder(ADHD) is one of the most common childhood psychiatric diseases and nocturnal enuresis is also a common involuntary disorder, whose symptoms can appear more than 2-3 times per month even after the age of 5. The incidence of nocturnal enuresis is believed to be increasing in ADHD patients. This study investigates the effectiveness of desmopressin...

Purpose : To evaluate the health status of institutionalized handicapped children, a general health assessment was done in an asylum in Taegu in May 1998. Methods : Body measurements, including height, weight, head circumference, skin fold thickness and mid-arm circumference, were done with physical examination on 53 children. Blood tests and chest radiography were done, and fat impedance was measured....

The aims of the present study were to examine the comparison of leptin levels between type I diabetes mellitus(DM) patients who received exogenous insulin therapy and healthy children, and...
Follow up of Infants with Congenital Hypothyroidism Who were Detected by Newborn Screening Test
