Two Cases of Inhalation Injury Caused by An Explosion of Two Different Chemical Disinfectants(Sodium Dichloroiso Cyanurate & Calcium Hypochlorite) in a Swimming Pool
Su Jin Lee, Eun Young Park, Mi Ran Kim, Kon Hee Lee, Kwang Nam Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2003;46(2):198-202.   Published online February 15, 2003
Of all toxic inhalant exposures, chlorine is one of the most common toxic chemical inhalants. When acutely inhaled, it can be responsible for symptoms ranging from upper air way irritation to more serious respiratory effects. It can also deteriorate lung function and lead to death. Chlorine and its compounds such as chlorinated cyanurates and hypochlorites are commonly used in water...

Clinical Analysis of Acute Respiratory Tract Infections by Influenza Virus in Children
Min Kyoung Kwon, Mi Ran Kim, Eun Young Park, Kon Hee Lee, Hae Sun Yoon, Kwang Nam Kim, Kyu Man Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(12):1519-1527.   Published online December 15, 2002
Purpose : Although influenza virus is one of the most important causes of acute respiratory tract infections(ARTIs) in children, virus isolation is not popular and there are only a few clinical studies on influenza in Korea. We evaluated the epidemiologic and clinical features of ARTIs by influenza virus in children. Methods : From February 1995 to August 2001, nasopharyngeal aspirations were...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(12):1424-1431.   Published online December 15, 2001
Purpose : The acute scrotum is a clinical syndrome that is defined as an acute, painful swelling of the scrotum or its contents. The symptoms and signs of acute scrotum are similar and its pathognomonic features are rarely detected. This study was performed to find a proper way to diagnose and treat acute scrotum promptly and correctly. Methods : From January 1990 through December...

Three Cases of Acute Scrotal Disorders in the Neonate
Ja Yun Yun, Min Kyoung Kwon, Mi Ran Kim, Kon Hee Lee, Kwang Nam Kim, Ho Hyun Jeong
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(7):841-846.   Published online July 15, 2001
Acute scrotal disorders(ASD) in neonates-especially the torsion of testes- are rare, and the clinical presentations are quite different from those of adolescents or adults. The neonates with ASD are generally afebrile and do not show typical symptoms. Early diagnosis and proper treatment of ASD are very important but the differentiation of torsion and orchitis is not easy in neonates. The...
A Case of Apert's Syndrome with Encephalocele and Hypogenesis of Corpus Callosum
Min Kyoung Kwon, Ja Yun Yu, Mi Ran Kim, Kon Hee Lee, Hae Ran Lee, Kwang Nam Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(7):832-836.   Published online July 15, 2001
Apert's syndrome(acrocephalosyndactyly) is a rare congenital anomaly that is characterized by the combination of premature fusion of multiple cranial sutures primarily involving the coronal suture and severe symmetrical syndactyly of fingers and toes. Some patients of this syndrome have various abnormalities of the central nervous system. We experienced a case of Apert's syndrome with craniofacial malformations, symmetric syndactyly, occipital encephalocele...

Effects of Hepatitis B Revaccination in Nonresponsive Children
Ui Chong Chong, Mi Ran Kim, Chong Young Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(6):778-782.   Published online June 15, 1999
Purpose : Hepatitis B virus infection is prevalent in Korea. Active immunization of Hepatitis B has been proceeded extensively for the last decade. This study was performed to estimate the negative rate of anti-HBs after immunization and to evaluate the effect of revaccination among Korean children between 1995 and 1997, as well as to determine a proper revaccination schedule. Methods :...
A Clinical Analysis on Acute Lower Respiratory Tract Infections in Children Caused by Influenza Virus in Children
Kiehl Hyung Lee, Woo Kyung Kim, Mi Ran Kim, Dug Ha Kim, Hae Ran Lee, Chong Young Park, Kyu Man Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(12):1623-1631.   Published online December 15, 1998
Purpose : Although annual epidemics occur, there are only a few clinical studies on influenza in Korea. We evaluated the epidemic and clinical features of acute lower respiratory tract infections in children by influenza virus. Methods : From Feb., 1995 to July, 1997, influenza virus isolations and clinical review were performed on hospitalized children with acute lower respiratory tract infections at...
A Clinical Study on Acute Lower Respiratory Tract Infections by Adenovirus in Children
Ui Chong Chong, Mi Ran Kim, Dug Ha Kim, Hae Ran Lee, Chong Young Park, Han Sung Kim, Kyu Man Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(8):1070-1077.   Published online August 15, 1998
Purpose : This study was performed to characterize the epidemiologic and clinical features of acute adenoviral lower respiratory tract infections. Methods : Culture and indirect immunofluorescence for adenovirus was done with nasopharyngeal aspirates from patients with acute lower respiratory tract infections from April to September, 1996. Cultured virus was serotyped for type 3, 4, and 7a by neutralization test, and medical...
Epidemiologic and Clinical Feature of Acute Lower Respiratory Tract Infections by Respiratory Syncytial Virus and Parainfluenza Virus in Children
Jeoung Jin Lee, Hyeon Seon Park, Mi Ran Kim, Dug Ha Kim, Hae Ran Lee, Chong Young Park, Woo Kap Chung, Kyu Man Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1997;40(8):1071-1080.   Published online August 15, 1997
Purpose : This is to analyze epidemic and clinical features of acute respiratory tract infections(ALRTI) by respiratory syncytial virus(RSV) and parainfluenza virus(PIV), which are considered to be the major respiratory pathogens in children. Methods : Nasopharyngeal aspirates were collected from 515 patients with ALRTI hospitalized at Hangang Sacred Heart Hospital between Apr. ’94 and Oct. ’96. Nasopharyngeal aspirates were inoculated to...
Diagnosis of Bordetella Pertussis Infections by Polymerase Chain Reaction
Mi Ran Kim, Hee Jung Kang, Hoan Jong Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1996;39(9):1260-1270.   Published online September 15, 1996
Purpose : Pertussis, a respiratory tract infection caused by Bordetella pertussis, is an important cause of morbidity in children. But diagnosis of pertussis is often delayed because of late development of typical symptoms and difficulties in culture. There has been no bacteriologically confirmed case of B. pertussis infection in Korea. Lower respiratoy tract may be involved in pertussis. We performed the polymerase chain reaction(PCR)...
