Kidney length is the most useful parameter for clinical measurement of kidney size, and to distinguish acute injury from chronic disease.In this prospective observational study 437 normal children aged between 0 < 13 years, was measured using sonography.There were good correlations somatic values, including age, weight, height, body surface area.The rapid growth height during first 2 years life intimately associated with a similar increase in length, suggesting that should be considered an...
Obese children may often present with advanced bone age. We aimed to evaluate the correlation between factors associated childhood obesity and age.We enrolled 232 overweight or obese children. Anthropometric laboratory data, degree of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) were measured. analyzed age by measuring differences chronological ages.The normal groups comprised 183 (78.9%) 49 (21.1%) children, respectively. The prevalence significantly increased as percentiles height, weight,...
Over the last decade, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) use in critically ill children has increased and is associated with favorable outcomes. Our study aims to evaluate current status of pediatric ECMO Korea, a specific focus on its volume changes survival rates based diagnostic indications.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the characteristics and epidemiological trends of pediatric injuries among patients visiting emergency departments (EDs) on Jeju Island. Method:Employing a community-level serial cross-sectional analysis, we targeted aged 18 years or younger who visited EDs for over ten-year period.The data, sourced from Injury Surveillance System (JISS), facilitated comprehensive examination injury trends.This included an evaluation annual incidence overall in...
Although liver function test abnormality is frequently noted in children, there no report about the distribution of etiology and natural recovery time abnormal function. From March 2005 to February 2014, clinical information was retrospectively collected from 559 children who had were hospitalized or visited outpatient clinic at Jeju National University Hospital. The classified into groups analyzed. etiological patients included 'nonspecific hepatitis' 42 (7.5%), 'infection' 323 (57.8%),...
To analyze the associations among degrees of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) by ultrasonography and metabolic syndrome, obesity in children, parental obesity.A total 198 children with who visited a pediatric clinic were prospectively enrolled this study. The severity NAFLD based on was classified into no, mild, moderate, or severe group. degree percentage over standard weight for height per sex severe.Of 132 patients evaluated p-value correlation between two factors 0.009....
For 3 consecutive years from 2012-2014, we analyzed the causative factors for why Jeju Island had highest obesity prevalences of school children among 15 provinces in Korea.From our analysis 28,026 elementary with or normal weight provinces, 12 related to eating habits, exercise lifestyle, and mental health. The differences between obese were researched. Finally, was compared Seoul, which has lowest prevalence age children. Statistical performed using chi square test PASW Statistics ver....
Background Pulmonary tuberculosis is an infectious disease of the lungs caused by Mycobacterium complex (MTB) designated law in Korea, and accurate diagnosis urgent treatment are ne-cessary for maintenance public health. Recently, nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) have been more frequently isolated respiratory system specimens, which were confused with MTB. We investigated whether incidence NTM isolation increasing Jeju, Korea. Methods The results microbacterial cultures acid fast bacilli...
본 연구에서는 일반 메밀과 쓴 메밀의 제분 분획 별(겉껍질, 겨, 가루) 에탄올 추출물의 항산화 성분 함량을 분석하고, 활성을 시험관과 세포 수준에서 확인하였다. 그 결과, 메밀보다 메밀에서 총 폴리페놀 및 플라보노이드 함량이 월등히 높았으며, 물질로 주된 성분은 루틴으로 확인되었고, 에...
The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence shoulder pain and analyze its association with socio-demographic factors, agricultural work-related conditions, biomechanical factors among farmers on Jeju Island. We utilized initial survey data from Safety for Agricultural Injury Farmers' cohort involving adult presence characteristics pain, socio-demographics, were assessed using semi-structured questionnaires. A total 1206 participants analyzed associated risk frequency multivariate...
According to international pediatric urinary tract infection (UTI) guidelines, selecting ampicillin/sulbactam or amoxicillin/clavulanate is recommended as the first-line treatment for UTI. In Korea, elevated resistance ampicillin and has resulted in widespread use of third-generation cephalosporins treating UTIs. This study aims compare efficacy piperacillin-tazobactam (TZP) cefotaxime (CTX) treatments hospitalized children with The study, conducted at Jeju National University Hospital,...
Background Pediatric extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is increasingly utilized for cardiac arrests that do not respond to standard (CPR), although multicenter data on outcomes remain scarce. This study evaluated trends, outcomes, and factors associated with survival in pediatric ECPR over a 10-year period. Methods retrospective was conducted across 12 centers from 2012 2021. It included patients (<18 years) who underwent ECPR. Data were analyzed period 1 (2012–2016) 2...
Background Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a critical intervention for pediatric patients with cardiac-related medical indications. However, data on its outcomes and associated risk factors, particularly in Korea, are limited. This study aimed to evaluate these identify predictors of mortality. Methods A multicenter retrospective was conducted 152 who underwent ECMO conditions between 2012 2021. Data patient demographics, clinical features, laboratory findings, were collected...
Pierre Robin sequence (PRS), also called sequence, is a congenital anomaly characterized by triad of micrognathia, glossoptosis, and upper airway obstruction. Infants with PRS can present varying degrees respiratory difficulty secondary to There has been no consensus for the treatment obstruction in infants PRS, but recent studies recommend attempting non-surgical interventions before surgical treatment. In this case report, we 3 cases diagnosed who showed persistent difficulties after...
Abstract Urinary tract infections (UTI) are one of the most common in children. The proportion extended − spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) producing bacteria pediatric UTIs is increasing. Therefore, it necessary to pay attention use antibiotics prevent ESBL patients susceptible medical institutions. This study aimed investigate clinical features related recurrence UTI children and confirm experience validity piperacillin tazobactam (TZP) as a first line treatment. Medical records diagnosed...
Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) is a small vessel vasculitides mostly associated with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA). The kidney the most commonly affected organ in MPA. We report case of 9-year-old girl ANCA-negative MPA who initially presented respiratory symptoms, including cough, sputum, and dyspnea. Based on her atypical pneumonia was suspected. Also, childhood interstitial lung disease considered based findings seen chest CT. Despite initial improvement symptoms oral...
