Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(6):669-676.   Published online June 15, 2001
Purpose : The incidence of obese patients has increased recently in Korea. Obesity is associated with hypertension, hyperlipidemia, insulin resistance, and fatty liver. Since recent investigators have revealed that not only fat accumulation but also fibrosis and nonspecific hepatitis can be found in the livers of obese children, fatty liver is currently considered as an important complication. The purpose of...
Diagnostic Utility of D-dimer Test in Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation with Sepsis
Jung Eun Kim, Young Mi Hong, Gyung Hee Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(2):257-263.   Published online February 15, 1999
Purpose : Disseminated intravascular coagulation(DIC) is a confusing disorder from both a diagnostic and therapeutic standpoint. In order to investigate the effectiveness of D-dimer test in disseminated intravascular coagulation associated with sepsis, D-dimer level and other laboratory tests were performed. Methods : Fifty patients with disseminated intravascular coagulation associated with sepsis, who were admitted to the department of pediatrics, were evaluated by...
Serum G-CSF Level Changes in Neonatal Sepsis
Kyung Ha Ryu, Eun Ae Park, Kyung Hyo Kim, Gyung Hee Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(1):12-18.   Published online January 15, 1998
Purpose : The neonate is susceptible to severe and overwhelming bacterial infections. One of the most important deficiency in the neonatal host defense system seems to be quantitative and qualitative deficiency of the myeloid and the phagocytic system. Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor(G-CSF) has been shown to induce neutrophilia and enhance mature effector neutrophil function. We examined serum levels of G-CSF in...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1996;39(11):1603-1610.   Published online November 15, 1996
Purpose : The etiology of the Kawasaki disease remains unclear, many strong clinical and epidemiologic characteristics suggest an infectious etiology. However, conventional bacterial and viral cultures and extensive serologic studies have not revealed a consistent causative agent. Thus we studied the Epstein Barr virus(EBV), one of the most important pathogens, to access the association between the EBV and Kawasaki disease. Methods : Seventy-two patients with...
