Estimation of Glomerular Filtration Rate from Plasma Creatinine and Height in Premature and Fullterm Neonates.
Yeong Jee Kim, Keun Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1986;29(7):723-729.   Published online July 31, 1986
In clinical practice, creatinine clearance(Ccr) remains the most commonly used laboratory assessment of glomerular function despite methodological and technical problems of urine collection. Schwartz et al. in 1976，reported that an accurate estimate of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) could be obtained from the simple determinations of plasma creatinine (Per) and body length(L):GFR(ml/min/1.73cm2)=k• L(cm)/Pcr(mg/100ml), (k=constant). The purpose of this investigation is to compare...
Case Report
A case of Congenital Factor X III Deficiency.
Sei Woo Chung, Myung Ik Lee, Don Hee Ahn, Keun Chan Sohn, Jin Sook Hong, Dong Hun Yoon
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1986;29(5):553-559.   Published online May 31, 1986
A 4 year and 7 month old male patient was admitted with the chief complaint of subgaleal hematoma and recurrent bleeding episodes. The first episode was umbilical cord bleeding on the third day of life. Routine coagulation study including factor assay at that time was within normal limit. The bleeding cleared after whole blood transfusion. He had been admitted...

Influence of Isoproterenol on the Plasma Renin Activity in Rats.
Woong Kyou Park, Yong Bae Shin, In soo Choi, Hyeon Suk Lee, Jung Soo Kim, Kyung Woo Cho
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1985;28(9):899-905.   Published online September 30, 1985
It has been suggested that the effect of catecholamine administered into the renal artery on the plasma renin activity may be controlled by extrarenal beta-receptor. Still the exact mechanism responsible for the increase of the plasma renin activity by catecholamines is obscure. In this experiment I have intended to clarify the involvement of extrarenal beta-receptor concerning renin release in the...
Plasma Renin Activity (PRA) in Peripheral Vein and Renal Veins in Normotensive Children.
Chong Ku Yun, Hae Il Cheong, Chung Il Noh, Jung Yun Choi, Yong Choi, Kwang Wook Ko, Kyung Mo Yeon
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1985;28(6):555-563.   Published online June 30, 1985
PRA in peripheral vein, both renal veins and both inferior vena cava (JVC) both proximal and distal to the drainage of the both renal veins was measured in 80 normotensive children with no renal disease undergoing routine cardiac catheterization due to congenital heart disease which did not cause significant hemodynamic changes in most of them. And we presented the results...
Clinical Study of Plasma A.V.P Levels in Children with Meningitis.
Jun Gun Kim, Hye Kyung Cho, Mea Young Chung, Dong Hyuck Kum
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1985;28(4):325-329.   Published online April 30, 1985
Plasma A.V.P. levels were determined by radioimmunoassay in 31 children who were hospitalized to Pediatric Department of the Korea General Hospital from June 1984 to August 1984. Among 31 hospitalized children, 21 were meningitis cases as for study group and the rest 10 were URI cases as for control group. Meningitis cases were classified as aseptic meningitis group(16 aseptic meningitis...
Changes of Plasma Inactive Renin in Newborn Infant and Children.
Pyoung Han Hwang, Woong Kyou Park, Heon Sook Lee, Jung Soo Kim, Kyung Woo Cho
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1984;27(9):872-876.   Published online September 30, 1984
There have been some suggestion that inactive renin may be a kind of precursor renin. There have not yet been however, founded direct evidence for that suggestion. To understand more about the physiological role of the plasma inactive renin, experiments have been done. The results obtained as follows. 1)In the newborn infants plasma renin activity showed highest level up to...
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...
