Yoo Mi Chung, Choong Ho Shin, Sei Won Yang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2003;46(3):277-283.   Published online March 15, 2003
Purpose : Craniopharyngiomas are often accompanied by severe endocrine disorders. Although there is universal growth hormone deficiency(GHD), the resulting growth pattern is very heterogeneous. We report the growth and endocrine outcome of 44 children with craniopharyngioma, with emphasis on initial symptoms, growth before and during growth hormone(GH) treatment and spontaneous growth in spite of GHD. Methods : We performed a...

Effects of Insulin Level on Dyslipidemia in Children with Simple Obesity
Jung Sub Lim, Choong Ho Shin, Sei Won Yang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(6):764-772.   Published online June 15, 2002
Purpose : Obesity is closely related to insulin resistance, compensatory hyperinsulinemia and dyslipidemia in adults. We identified the effect of obesity measured by BMI and insulin resistance on dyslipidemia in children and adolescents. Methods : The fasting serum insulin, glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL- and LDL-cholesterol were measured and insulin resistance(HOMA-IR) was calculated in 35 children with simple obesity(age :...

Study on the Frequency of Receptor Insensitivity to Androgen Using the Androgen-receptor Binding Assay in the Genetic Male Children with Abnormalities of Sexual Differentiation
Choong Ho Shin, Sei Won Yang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(1):95-102.   Published online January 15, 2002
Purpose : The development of external genitalia in genetic male is dependent on the transcriptional regulatory activity of dihydrotestosterone(DHT)-androgen receptor complex in the genital skin. The abnormality of androgen receptor encompasses a wide range of phenotypes. We investigated the androgen receptor binding capacity of genetic males with ambiguous genitalia(grade was determined by Prader grade) for the availability as screening test. Methods : The binding capacity...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(5):577-586.   Published online May 15, 2001
Purpose : We observed the prevalence rate of microalbuminuria(MA) and its relationship with the various clinical factors in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus(DM). Methods : Seventy two children and adolescents(26 males and 46 females, 17.1±3.0 years) were included. MA was defined as 24 hour urine microalbumin >30mg/day(20μg/min). Subjects were classified into three groups(normoalbuminuria, transient MA, or persistent MA)....
Clinical Characteristics of Williams Syndrome

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(4):443-449.   Published online April 15, 2001
Purpose : Williams syndrome(WS) is an autosomal dominant disorder resulting from a submicroscopic deletion of contiguous genes on the long arm of chromosome 7. We evaluated the physical, neurodevelopmental, and behavioral characteristics of children and adults with WS confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization. Methods : The clinically suspicious twelve cases with cardiac anomaly were confirmed as WS with fluorescence in...
Congenital Chloride Diarrhea in 5 Korean Infants
Dong Hun Rhie, Sun Hwan Bae, Ji Eun Choi, Bo Young Yun, Dong Woo Son, Choong Ho Shin, Kyung Hee Park, Jae Sung Ko, Jeong Kee Seo
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(11):1465-1472.   Published online November 15, 2000
Purpose : Congenital chloride diarrhea(CLD) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by life-long watery diarrhea of prenatal onset with high fecal Cl－ concentration. Recent studies have revealed that the protein product of the down-regulated in adenoma(DRA) gene is an intestinal anion transporter molecule and causes CLD when mutated. We investigated the clinical characteristics of CLD in Korean infants in order...
Re-Evaluation of Neonatal Screening Tests for Inborn Errors of Metabolism with Dried Filter Paper Blood Spots
Kye Shik Shim, Jin Soon Hwang, Jung Sub Lim, Se Young Kim, Choong Ho Shin, Sei Won Yang, Jung Hwan Choi, Chong Ku Yun, Jung-Han Song
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(12):1639-1644.   Published online December 15, 1999
Purpose : There have been high rates of false positive and recall in neonatal screening test using the cut-off points set by the manufacturing company. So, it is necessary to re-evaluate the cut off values to minimize the false positive rates. Methods : We collected capillary blood in dry filter paper from 996 healthy neonates on the third day in cases...
Serum Levels of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Ⅰ and Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 between Short Children with or without Intrauterine Growth Retardation
Kye Shik Shim, Se Young Kim, Choong Ho Shin, Sei Won Yang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(3):390-396.   Published online March 15, 1999
Purpose : Postnatally, 20% of children with intrauterine growth retardation(IUGR) has no catch- up growth, This might be dependent on the serum level of Insulin-like growth factor I(IGF-I), resulting in shortness. We measured serum levels of IGF-I and Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3(IGFBP-3) in children with IUGR and normal short stature variants(NSSV) to observe whether they play a role in...

Glanzmann's thrombasthenia is a rare autosomal recessive hemorrhagic disorder of platelet function with missing or abnormal platelet plasma membrane glycoprotein Ⅱb-Ⅲa, which functions as a receptor for fibrinogen. We have experienced a case of thrombasthenia in a 6-year-old female whose chief complaints were easy bruising, frequent epistaxis, arthralgia and swelling of the right ankle joint. Bleeding time was prolonged in...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1996;39(7):1020-1024.   Published online July 15, 1996
Mauriac's syndrome was described in the 1920s, as a triad of poorly controlled insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, profound growth retardation, and hepatomgaly. Following the wide availability of insulin and intensification of diabetic control, this entity has become quite rare. A 9-year-old female child was transferred to pediatric OPD of SNUCH because of hyperglycemia, short stature, and visual disturbance. Five years prior to admission, she...
