To evaluate the difference of normal flora between breast and formula-fed newborns, we performed
quantitative posterior nasal swab culture in 21 breast-and 44 formula-fed newborns.
Positive culture rates of total aerobes and total anaerobes were 100% and 98%, respecitively.
Among the aerobes, positive culture rate was 100% in group B streptococcus, 98% in gram negative
bacteria, 86% in staphylococcus aureus, 82% in staphylococcus epidermidis... |

The authors experienced two cases of goitrous hypothyroidism in siblings. The etiology was
considered to be defect of iodide organification in steps of thyroxine synthesis.
The diagnosis was made on the basis of history, clinical features, thyroid function test, thyroid
scanning, ultrasonogram and perchlorate discharge test.
We report these cases with a review of related literatres. |

The anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (Bland-White
-Garland Syndrome) is a relatively rare congenital heart disease, in which the right coronary artery
arises normally while the left comoary artery arises from the pulmonary artery. We experienced a
case of this anomaly without any other cardiac defect in a 4 month-old female infant. The diagnosis
was suspected on the... |
