Mahendra K. Pant, Abul. H. Ahmad, Manisha Naithani, Jayanti Pant
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2022;65(9):459-465.   Published online May 19, 2022
Question: Plastic feeding bottles are used commonly to feed infants who cannot be breastfeed. Does plastic bottle feeding produce biochemical changes in infants?
Finding: The plastic bottles leach out endocrine disruptors and affects bodily functions in terms of biochemical alterations like increased blood urea, raised creatine-kinase–MB levels, and altered lipid profile in infants exposed to bottle feeding.
Meaning: Plastic bottles feeding alters bodily functions in infants.

Accidental ingestion of E-cigarette liquid nicotine in a 15-month-old child: an infant mortality case of nicotine intoxication
An Deok Seo, Dong Chan Kim, Hee Joon Yu, Min Jae Kang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2016;59(12):490-493.   Published online December 31, 2016

Electronic cigarettes are novel tobacco products that are frequently used these days. The cartridge contains liquid nicotine and accidental poisoning, even with a small oral dose, endangers children. We present here a mortality case of a 15-month-old child who ingested liquid nicotine mistaking it for cold medicine. When the emergency medical technicians arrived, she was found to have pulseless electrical...

Effects of Partial Liquid Ventilation on Gas Exchange, Hemodynamics, and Pulmonary Function in Newborn Piglet with Respiratory Distress
Yun Sil Chang, Won Soon Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(11):1430-1439.   Published online November 15, 2000
Purpose : To evaluate gas exchange, hemodynamics and pulmonary function during partial liquid ventilation(PLV) using PFC(perfluorodecalin), compared with conventional gas ventilation in newborn piglets with saline lavage-induced respiratory distress. Methods : In a total of 16 instrumented and ventilated piglets, acute respiratory distress(below 70 mmHg of PaO2 at FiO2 1.0) was induced by repeated saline pulmonary lavage. The piglets were randomized...
Relationship of Insulin-like Growth Factor-I with Pharmacologically Stimulated Growth Hormone secretion in Growth hormone Deficient Children
Phil-Soo Oh, Ki-Joong Kim, Young-Iee Yu, In-Joon Seol, Jeh-Hoon Shin
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1995;38(10):1394-1403.   Published online October 15, 1995
Purpose : At present, to determine growth hormone(GH) deficiency in short stature, many provocative tests using various pharmacologic agents such as clonodine, L-dopa, insulin should be done. These are not only complicated, but also misleading in some patients. And so, in search of a simple method of detecting GH deficiency that may replace the complicated stimulation test, we measured basal...
