Kyong Ah Jeong, Soon Ju Lee, In Kyung Sung, Chung Sik Chun
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2003;46(12):1207-1211.   Published online December 15, 2003
Purpose : This study was performed to observe the relationship of plasma L-arginine level and the severity of disease and pulmonary artery pressure in respiratory distress syndrome of premature infants. Methods : Peripheral blood samples were obtained at 1st, 3rd and 7th day from 21 premature infants with respiratory distress syndrome to analyze the L-arginine concentration. Oxygenation index (OI), an indicator...

A Case of Congenital Partial Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus
Eun Ha Mo, In Hye Nam, Min Ja Chung, Jae Hong Yu
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(7):902-905.   Published online July 15, 2002
The most common form of genetic nephrogenic diabetes insipidus(NDI), a rare inherited disorder, is congenital and is transmitted in an X-linked recessive mode. It is refractory to the antidiuretic effect of normal to moderately increased levels of plasma arginine vasopressin(AVP) but, in some cases, may respond to high levels of the hormone or its analogue, deamino-D-arginine vasopressin(DDAVP). X-linked congenital NDI...

The mechanism of Arginine-stimulated growth hormone secretion.
Wan Kyu Lee, Dong Goo Lee, Duk Hi Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1991;34(4):544-552.   Published online April 30, 1991
Although Arginine is widely used in the evaluation of growth hormone (GH) secretion in short stature patient, the mechanism of action is unclear, yet. To elucidate how Arginine stimulate GH secretion, we studied the interaction of Arginine with growth homrone releasing hormone (GHRH) on GH secretion in GH deficient short stature patient and constitutional growth delay. The results of the studies were as follows: 1) Peak...
Altered secretion of arginine vasopressin in children with CNS diseases.
Kun Whe Kim, Eun Sook Kim, Cheol Woo Ko, Ja Hoon Koo, Doo Hong Ahn, Won Jung Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1991;34(3):323-333.   Published online March 31, 1991
A prospective study was conducted to see the pattern and mechanism of arginine vasopressin (AVP) secretion in children with CNS diseases. Study population consisted of 21 cases with aseptic meningi- tis (meningitis group) and another 21 cases with viral encephalitis or encephalopathy (encephalitis group), who had been admitted to our Pediatric Department during 10 months’ period from April 1985 to January 1986. Seventeen healthy...
Diagnosis and Treatment of Diabetes Insipidus in Childhood.
Yong Hoom Park, Jin Sang Son, Jeong Ok Hah
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1987;30(7):749-758.   Published online July 31, 1987
In eight cases of diabetes insipidus who were diagnosed at the pediatric department of Yeungnam University Hospital from July 1985 till May 1986, the levels of plaana AVP were measured by radioimmunoassay and the effects of various treatment were studied. In central diabetes insipidus patients basal plasma AVP level was 2.92 ±2.55 pg/ml which was significantly lower than the level of control group, 8.25...
