Hematological Aspects of Congenital Syphilis
Jae Hak Seo
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1965;8(5):1-8.   Published online November 30, 1965
The hematologic abnormalities of this disease have received relatively little attention in the past but have been prominent in the patients whom we have observed. Study on the hematological aspects in 3 cases of congenital syphilis with consideration given to pathogenesis of anemia was undertaken. The results were as follow; 1.Hemolytic anemia was present all of 3 infants with congenital syphilis. The...
Phagocytic Activity of Leucocytes in Malnutrition
chul kyu Kim
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1965;8(5):9-14.   Published online November 30, 1965
It is generally believed that malnourished patients are more prone to bacterial infection than normal healthy individuals. Increased susceptibility to infection has been attributed to depressing the reticuloendothelial systems, producing a diminution in the number of cells released into bloodstream, a reduction in antibody production, and a decrease in phagocytic activities as well as other functions. Phagocytosis of npn-pathogenic staphylococcus albus...
Sugar and Protein Contents in Cerebrospinal Fluid of Encephalitis japonica. Tuberculous, Meningitis and Suppurative Meningitis
Choi-Won Bang
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1965;8(5):15-18.   Published online November 30, 1965
The determination of sugar and protein contents has been made for the cerebrospinal fluid in such pathological conditions as tuberculous meningitis(29 cases), encephalitis japonica (35 cases) and suppurative meningitis (7 cases), In encephalitis japonica, the sugar and protein contents were almost similar to the normal values. In tuberculous meningitis and suppurative meningitis, the contents of sugar was markedly increased, while the protein contents...
Lactic Dehydrogenase Activity in Serum and Cerebrospinal Fluid in Children
Dug-Young Choi, Hak-Soo Han
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1965;8(5):19-22.   Published online November 30, 1965
Changes in the levels of lactic dehydrogenase activity in sera and cerebrospinal fluid (C.S.F.) were invest- igated in pediatric diseases which included 10 cases of normal children, 28 cases of encephalitis and 5 cases of tuberculous meningitis. Normal values for the 10 cases were found to bs almost similar to those reported by other Authors. The 11 cases of encephalitis in comatous...
Total cholesterol level and lactic dehydrogenase activity in cerebrospinal fluid in children
Hak Soo Han, Dae Sung La, He Yung Lee
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1965;8(5):23-26.   Published online November 30, 1965
Changes in the level of cerebrospinal fluid total cholesterol and lactic dehydrogenase activities in 12 cases of tuberculous meningitis and 27cases of encephalitis Japonica were investigated including 14 cases of healthy children as control. Normal values in the 14 cases were found to be almost similar to those reported by others, thus the total cholesterol being zero mg/dl and the L.D.H. a...
NEFA (Non-Esterified Fatty Acids) Contents in the Sera and Cerebrospinal Fluid of Pediatric Healthy Children and Patients
Chi-Won Bang, Heun Bang Kim
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1965;8(5):27-29.   Published online November 30, 1965
NEFA CNon-Esterified Fatfcy Acids) contents of Sera in healthy children was 452/zEq/L. and which of cerebrospinal fluid was 28 //Eq/L. In epidemic encephalitis (Japanese B type) and tuberculous meningitis, markedly increased NEFA contents were noted- in the cerebrospinal fluid with little increase in the Sera. More increased NEFA contents in the cerebrospinal fluid were noted in tuberculous meningitis than epidemic encephalitis.
Studies on Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase and Lactic Dehydrogenase Levels in Cerebrospinal Fluids of Pediatric Patients
Jung-Hi Oh
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1965;8(5):30-34.   Published online November 30, 1965
Variations in the levels of the glutamic oxalacetic transaminase (G.O.T.) and lactic dehydrogenase (L.D.H.) in cerebrospinal fluid (C.S.F.) were investigated in pediatric diseases involving central nervous system. Normal values of the 10 cases for G.O.T. and 14 cases for L.D.H. were found to be almost similar to those reported by other authors. In tuberculous meningitis, encephalitis and purulent meningitis, marked...
Mucoprotein Contents of Serum and Cerebrospinal Fluid in Children
Woo Kap Chungs
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1965;8(5):35-37.   Published online November 30, 1965
The 8 normal children and 18 ceses of Micephalitis japonica were selected to determine the serum mucoprotein, mucoprotein and total protein value of cerebrospiftal fluid. Pronounced increase of mucoprotein contents was observed in the cerebrospinal fluid of encephalitis japonica with only slight increase in their sera. No constant relationship of the increase in cerebrospinal fluid to that of sera coulH be...
Urinary Alkaline Phosphatase Activities in Premature Infants, Newborn Infants, Children and Adults
Dug Young Choi
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1965;8(5):38-40.   Published online November 30, 1965
The activities of urinary alkaline phosphatase were determined in 10 premature infants, 25 newborn infants, 10 children and 10 adults. The following results were obtained. 1)The urinary alkaline phosphatase activity is 1.09 +0.34 units% in premature infants, 0.50+0.13 units% in newborn infants, 0.31+0.14 units% in children and 0.21 土0.12 units% in adults. 2)The activity in premature infants is much higher than others.
Lactic Acid and Sugar Contents of Cerebrospinal Fluid of Pathological State in Children
Woo Kap Chung, Jae Koo Lee, Sang On Lee
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1965;8(5):41-43.   Published online November 30, 1965
The determination of lactic acid and sugar contents has been made for the cerebrospinal fluid in such pathological conditions as tuberculous meningitis (7cases), encephalitis japonica(9 cases), and normal children(6 cases). In tuberculous : meningitis, the lactic acid contents was increased remarkably in disproportion to the normal one in which it was present in which it was present in trace, while the sugar...
