Some children with AGE have afebrile convulsions associated with viral gastroenteritis. The purpose of this study was to detect and genotype viruses from children with AGE or benign infantile seizures associated with mild gastroenteritis (BIS-MG). Methods: Between August 2004 and June 2005, 311 children with AGE were included. Four viral agents, including rotavirus, norovirus, astrovirus, and adenovirus, were analyzed from stool specimens of each patient using the latex agglutination method, enzyme immunoassay, and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. Genotyping of each virus was performed in 217 of the 311 children. Results: Among 217 children (male, 121; female, 96; mean age, 20.6 ${pm}$ 15.4 months), rotavirus was detected in 109 (50.2%), norovirus in 28 (12.9%), adenovirus in 13 (6.0%), and astrovirus in 2 children (0.9%).

The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the clinical aspects and diagnostic tests differencing two diseases. Methods: From August 2004 to March 2009, nineteen patients with severe abdominal distension, who underwent barium enema, anorectal manometry, and rectal suction biopsy (triple tests) due to a suspicion of HD, were enrolled. A comparison of clinical data associated with BTII and HD based on the clinical features and results of triple tests. Results: The age of onset of symptom was between 2 and 6 weeks in BTII and within 3 weeks in HD. On the barium enema, transitional zone revealed in 6 (50%) patients in BTII and 4 (57.1%) in HD. On anorectal manometry, the anorectal inhibitory reflex was present in 11 (91.7%) patients in BTII and 1 (14.3%) in HD. On rectal suction biopsy, ganglion cell was present in 9 (75%) patients in BTII and 0 (0%) in HD. Abdominal distension was improved within 3 months of life in all cases of BTII. Conclusion: We think that anorectal manometry may be more simple and useful diagnostic method than barium enema and rectal suction biopsy for differential diagnosis of transient intestinal ileus and Hirschsprung’s disease.

Methods: Diagnosis based on QPGS was compared with the physician's diagnosis based on Rome III criteria. One hundred and thirty eight children and their parents completed the QPGS. Agreement rates were measured using Kappa method. Results: In physician's diagnoses, the most prevalent disorders were functional dyspepsia (39.1%), irritable bowel syndrome (38.4%), and functional abdominal pain (18.8%).

Although intussusceptions are easily treated, some intussusceptions with or without a pathologic lead point (PLP) often recur. In this study, we analyzed the clinical characteristics and prognosis of recurrent intussusceptions (RI), the frequency of the PLP, and correlation between RI with PLP. Methods: The medical records of 144 patients, among 590 patients with intussusceptions who had been admitted to the Department of Pediatrics and Pediatric Surgery of Dankook University Hospital between May 1994 and June 2009 were reviewed retrospectively. Results: The overall recurrence rate of intussusceptions in this study was 9.2%. The mean interval between the initial occurrence and the first recurrent attack was 130 ± 175 days (range, 12 hours to 3 years). There was no statistically significant difference in the recurrence rate among patients who underwent air, barium, and manual reduction ( p =0.131). Eighty-seven cases (92.6%) of RI had a successful reduction by the use of non-operative techniques. A PLP was present in 18 patients (3.0%). The most common PLP was intestinal lymphoid hyperplasia, followed by Meckel’s diverticulum, duplication cyst, intestinal polyp, and adenomyoma. The mean number of intussusceptions was 4.7 ± 1.9 in 7 patients with PLP, which was significantly higher than (2.4 ± 0.9) patients without a PLP ( p =0.023).

The breast feeding group began weaning at approximately 6.4 months of age, which was statistically meaningfully compared to non-breast feeding infants. There were no differences in knowledge between the two groups of parents. Conclusion: According to our research, we assume that if weaning begins at 6 months, we cannot supply sufficient iron to meet the infant's needs, which increase sharply around 6 months of age because of depletion of stored iron. Thus, infants need to initiate weaning from breast feeding at 4 months of age to furnish an ample amount of iron or take iron-containing supplements.

Methods: Between July 2003 and July 2006, 48 preterm infants who were admitted to the NICU at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital were included. The subjects were divided into the following two subgroups according to the presence of NST activity; pre-NST group (n=23) and NST group (n=25). Hospital records were reviewed retrospectively. Results: Forty-eight preterm babies were included (M:F=27:21; gestational age, 25~33 weeks). A dietician, pharmacists, or the pNST participated in the prescription of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) more rapidly in the NST group (p=0.000). The fasting periods and TPN administration periods were significantly decreased in the NST group compared to the pre-NST group (p=0.017 & p=0.001, respectively).

Methods: Nationwide cross-sectional survey was obtained from the 85 residency training hospitals in Korea to gather the final diagnosis on discharge. The surveyed periods were from 2004 to 2006. All the reports regarding the diagnosis were based on ICD-10 system. In this study, we focused on hepatobiliary diseases. Results: A total of 826,896 cases with discharge data were collected, of which 4,151 (5.0%) hepatobiliary cases were identified; 2,385 cases (57.4%) of hepatobiliary disease were hepatitis, which was the most common hepatobiliary disease. Other diseases included congenital hepatobiliary diseases (524 cases [12.6%]) and biliary diseases (315 cases [7.6%]). The prevalence of hepatobiliary disease according to age differed. Biliary atresia was the most common hepatobiliary disease in the neonatal period, whereas the prevalence of hepatitis increased in adolescents. The total number of hepatobiliary operations was 416 cases. With the comparison of annual data, there was no definite difference in the total number of hepatobiliary cases. The average duration of hospital stay appeared to decrease gradually. Conclusion: In this study, we have summarized the recent epidemiology of hepatobiliary disorders in Korean children based on discharge data. Hepatobiliary disorders in pediatric inpatient units consisted of diverse disorders with a low prevalence, so multi-center approaches should be considered to enhance the clinical and public health outcomes. To improve this nationwide survey, a new data collecting system should be developed.
