Ki Dae Kim, Byeong Hee Son, Chang Whan Oh, Jung A Lee, Sung Won Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2004;47(12):1293-1299.   Published online December 15, 2004
Purpose : This study was performed to determine the relation between cord blood plasma cytokines responses and development of cerebral palsies in premature infants. Methods : Interleukin-1β(IL-1β), Interleukin-6(IL-6), Tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) were measured using ELISA kits in premature infants(n=60) who were admitted to St. Benedict Hospital from September 2001 to June 2003. Retrospective study was done by review of medical records. Results...

Sang Jo Park, Tae Gyu Hwang, Byeong Hee Son, Chul Min Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(10):1263-1272.   Published online October 15, 2002
Purpose : Rett syndrome(RTT) is an X-linked dominant neurodevelopmental disorder affecting 1 per 10,000-15,000 female births worldwide. It was initially described by Andreas Rett in 1966. RTT involves developmental regression characterized stereotypic hand movements, tremors, gait apraxia, seizures, deceleration of head growth after the age of 6-18 months. The disease-causing gene was identified as MECP2 on chromosome Xq28. We carried out mutational analysis of MECP2...
Case Report
A Case of Cerebral Infarction Complicated by Mycoplasma pneumoniae Pneumonia
Kyoung Whoon Cheon, Won Sik Kang, Byeong Hee Son, Sung Won Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(5):673-678.   Published online May 15, 2002
Mycoplasma pneumoniae is the most common pathogen of the respiratory tract among school- aged children and young adults. The incidence of CNS complication is reported as 0.1-7% of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections. We experienced a case of cerebral infarction complicated by Mycoplasma pneumoniae, and reviewed the literature about the CNS complication of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection.

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(6):792-797.   Published online June 15, 2000
Purpose : The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of single dose imipramine on nocturnal urine output in patients with nocturnal enuresis. Methods : A total of 6 monosymptomatic enuretic patients of more than 5 years of age were enrolled in this study. We measured nocturnal urine output, urine osmolality, creatinine clearance, osmolal clearance, excretion rate of...
Effect of Steroid Therapy on Bone Mineral Density in Children with Minimal Change Nephrotic Syndrome
Byeong Hee Son, Woo Yeong Chung, Chul Ho Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1996;39(6):822-828.   Published online June 15, 1996
Purpose : Osteoporosis and growth failure have been known one of the serious side effects of corticosteroid therapy especially in children. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of long-term administration of steroids on bone mineral density(BMD) in children with nephrotic syndrome and its relationship to cumulative steroid dose, the duration of the rapy and sex. Methods : The BMD of...
