J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1999;42(10):1373-1380.   Published online October 15, 1999
Purpose : This study was aimed to investigate the relationship between changes in intrapulmonary right to left shunt(QSP/QT) and improvements in oxygenation during the 2-hr study period after Surfactant-TA(S-TA) administration. Methods : Umbilical arterial blood gases and corresponding respiratory indexes of 27 preterm neonates with respiratory distress syndrome were studied. The neonates were separated into group A(n=20) and group B(n=7) according...

Purpose : The aims of this study were to investigate the frequencies and role of hepatitis B virus(HBV) precore and core promotor mutations in children with chronic hepatitis B infection. Methods : Sera from 31 children with chronic HBV infection were analyzed by direct sequencing of polymerase chain reaction amplification of HBV DNA. Results : Twenty-nine adr type were analyzed. The mutations...
Early Diagnosis of Rifampin-Resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis by Gene Analysis of RNA Polymerase B Subunit
Ki Seok Park, Nam Soo Park, Eun Ryoung Kim, Seok Ho Choi, Hyun Phil Cho, Young Ho Moon, Il Soo Kim
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1999;42(10):1403-1411.   Published online October 15, 1999
Purpose : The control of tuberculosis is seriously threatened worldwide by the recently emerging multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis. As a result, early detection of drug resistant M.tuberculosis strain has become very important but conventional laboratory methods are time consuming and delayed results often affect patients adversely in controlling tuberculosis. The authors studied the usefulness of the line probe assay to determine...

Hae-Soon Kim, Young Mi Hong
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1999;42(10):1412-1418.   Published online October 15, 1999
Purpose : To evaluate the effects of respiration on diastolic filling pattern in normal children by Doppler echocardiography. Materials and Methods : Doppler echocardiograms of the tricuspid and mitral valves were recorded with electrocardiogram and respirations in 46 normal children aged 3months to 14years(7.6¡¾3.5year). We measured the following variables: heart rate, the peak E and A velocities, the area under the...

The Protective Effect of Vitamin E and Desferrioxamine on Cultured Cerebral Neurons of Neonatal Mouse Damaged by Ischemic Condition
So-ra Lee, Yeon-kyun Oh, Seung-taek Park
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1999;42(10):1426-1433.   Published online October 15, 1999
Purpose : Perinatal asphyxia is an important cause of neurologic morbidity. Experiments in animal models of hypoxic-ischemic brain injury demonstrate that brain damage starts during hypoxia-ischemia. In order to evaluate the ischemic condition-induced neurotoxic effect in view of oxi- dative stress, we examined the cytotoxic effect in cultured cerebral neurons of neonatal mouse. Methods : Dissociated cell cultures were prepared...

Primary intestinal lymphangiectasia is a rare congenital disorder characterized by diffuse or localized ectasia of the enteric lymphatics, often in association with lymphatic abnormalities elsewhere in the body. The pathogenesis of these abnormal lymphatic structures is uncertain. Ectatic lymphatics may be located in the mucosa, submucosa, or subserosa, leading to a loss of protein and lymphocytes into the gut or...
