p-Cresyl sulfate and indoxyl sulfate in pediatric patients on chronic dialysis
Hye Sun Hyun, Kyung Hoon Paik, Hee Yeon Cho
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2013;56(4):159-164.   Published online April 22, 2013
Purpose

Indoxyl sulfate and p-cresyl sulfate are important protein-bound uremic retention solutes whose levels can be partially reduced by renal replacement therapy. These solutes originate from intestinal bacterial protein fermentation and are associated with cardiovascular outcomes and chronic kidney disease progression. The aims of this study were to investigate the levels of indoxyl sulfate and p-cresyl sulfate as well as the...

Continuous renal replacement therapy in neonates weighing less than 3 kg
Young Bae Sohn, Kyung Hoon Paik, Hee Yeon Cho, Su Jin Kim, Sung Won Park, Eun Sun Kim, Yun Sil Chang, Won-Soon Park, Yoon-Ho Choi, Dong-Kyu Jin
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2012;55(8):286-292.   Published online August 23, 2012
Purpose

Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is becoming the treatment of choice for supporting critically ill pediatric patients. However, a few studies present have reported CRRT use and outcome in neonates weighing less than 3 kg. The aim of this study is to describe the clinical application, outcome, and complications of CRRT in small neonates.

Methods

A retrospective review was performed in 8...

Effects and adverse-effects of growth hormone therapy in children with Prader-Willi syndrome: A two year study
Su Jin Kim, Joong Bum Cho, Min Jung Kwak, Eun Kyung Kwon, Kyung Hoon Paik, Dong-Kyu Jin
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2008;51(7):742-746.   Published online July 15, 2008
Purpose : The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects and adverse side-effects of growth hormone (GH) therapy in children with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS). Methods : Forty-one patients who had been treated with GH for more than two years (24 boys and 17 girls, mean age 7.3?.3 years during treatment initiation) were enrolled for this study. Results : After...

Renal replacement therapy in children with acute renal failure
Kyung Hoon Paik
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2007;50(10):938-947.   Published online October 15, 2007
Many dialysis modalities such as peritoneal dialysis (PD), hemodialysis (HD) and continuous hemofiltration or hemodialysis (CRRT) are available for the management of pediatric patients with acute renal failure (ARF). PD is a relatively simple, inexpensive modality and can be used in hemodynamically unstable patients. But, it may not be the optimal therapy for patients with severe volume overload or life...

Clinical and Laboratory Features of Korean Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs)
Woo Yun Sohn, Jee Hyun Lee, Kyung Hoon Paik, Eun Kyoung Kwon, Ahn Hee Kim, Dong Kyu Jin
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2005;48(10):1132-1138.   Published online October 15, 2005
Purpose : The mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) are a heterogeneous group of lysosomal storage disorders. They are caused by a deficiency of the enzymes involved in the degradation of glycosaminoglycans. Early recognition is important because recombinant enzyme replacement therapy is now available for MPS. We studied the clinical characteristics of 80 MPS children with the object of determining the epidemiological, clinical and...
Expression of Expanded Polyglutamine Disease Proteins in Drosophila (Drosophila Polyglutamine Disease Models)
Sang Min Shin, Kyung Hoon Paik, Dong Kyu Jin
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2005;48(4):425-432.   Published online April 15, 2005
Purpose : Polyglutamine diseases are a group of diseases caused by the expansion of a polyglutamine tract in the protein. The present study was performed to verify if polyglutamine disease transgenic Drosophila models show similar dysfunctions as are seen in human patients. Methods : Polyglutamine disease transgenic Drosophila were tested for their climbing ability. And using genetic methods, the effects of...
