  • Purpose: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection has been known to be vital in the pathogenesis of duodenal ulcer disease in children as well as in adults. But the relationship between H. pylori infection and the histopathologic findings of the duodenum has not been explained obviously in children yet. So the aim of this study is to determine whether duodenitis and/or gastric metaplasia in the duodenum increases the risk of duodenal ulcer disease in children infected by H. pylori. Methods: From October 2001 to April 2004 gastric and duodenal biopsies were performed in 177 children who visited Department of Pediatrics, Gil Hospital, Gachon Medical School. Biopsy sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and also with Giemsa for identification of H. pylori. The grades of duodenitis and gastric metaplasia were classified from 0 to 3 and from 0 to 4, respectively. Results: The incidence of H. pylori infection was 54% in total patients. Amongst 163 children with duodenitis there was a lack of correlation between H. pylori infection and the grade of duodenitis. Amongst 11 patients with duodenal ucler, only 4 children were infected by H. pylori. And amongst 5 patients with gastric metaplasia, H. pylori and duodenal ulcer were detected in 2 and 3 children, respectively. The occurrence of duodenal ulcer and gastric metaplasia were increased significantly in proportion to the grade of duodenitis (p<0.0001 and p=0.0365, respectively). Conclusion: As opposed to the results of previously reported articles, there were lacks of correlation between H. pylori infection and duodenitis, duodenal ulcer, and gastric metaplasia. So further study hould be done to clarify the effect of H. pylori on the duodenal histopathology in children infected by H. pylori.

  • Canine coronavirus (CCV) is a cause of sporadic outbreaks of enteritis in dogs. This study was performed to carry out epidemiological investigation on the recent outbreaks of CCV enteritis of dogs and determined the potential prognostic factors affecting the survival of dogs. The 131 (34.4%) out of 381 fecal samples collected from dogs with enteritis were positive for CCV by RT-PCR. The fecal samples contained genotype I (30.5%), genotype II (29.0%), and both genotypes (40.5%) of CCV. The majority of dogs with CCV infection ranged 6-18 weeks of age. Age over 18 weeks was significantly associated with higher survival rate (P < 0.05). Of the clinical signs examined, dogs without anorexia were significantly higher survival rate (P < 0.01). The 90.1% of dogs with CCV infection were co-infected by CCV and CPV-2. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that CCV infection is widespread in the Korean dog population and CCV may be attributed to be one of the important agents causing enteritis in pups.

  • Purpose: Recently, a wide application of gastrofiberscopy in the pediatric group have revealed that nodular duodenitis is not an uncommon disease in children and is suspected to be associated with H. pylori infection. The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the clinical and histopathologic features in children with nodular duodenitis, and to assess the correlations beween both. Methods: During a period of 5 years (Jan. 1995~Dec. 1999), we investigated clinical, endoscopic and histopathologic features of 39 consecutive patients diagnosed as having nodular duodenitis at Pediatric department of Seoul Red Cross Hospital. In 35 children with nodular duodenitis endoscopic biopsy specimens were stained with Hematoxylin & Eosin and Giemsa's stain, and were graded according to the criteria outlined by Triadafilopoulos, Whitehead et al., and Prieto et al.. Statistical analyses were performed with Graph PAD InStat. Results: The prevalence rate of nodular duodenitis was 17.1% and the most frequent chief complaint was abdominal pain (69.2%). Endoscopically grade 1 was the most common (45.7%) and nodular gastritis was coexistent in 28.3%. The most common histology of the duodenum was grade 2 (54.3%), and the most common histologic score of the stomach was 2 (42.9%). H. pylori was found in the duodenum in 37.1%, and in the stomach in 31.4%. The correlation coefficient between the endoscopic grade and the histologic grade of nodular duodenitis was 0.3983 (p=0.0178). And the correlation coefficient between the histologic grade and the grade of H. pylori colonization in the duodenum was 0.5154 (p=0.0018). Conclusion: There was significant correlation between the endoscopic grade and the histologic grade of nodular duodenitis, and was also significant correlation between the histologic grade and the grade of H. pylori colonization in the duodenum. Therfore H. pylori infection should be regarded as an etiologic factor of nodular duodenitis.

  • Purpose: This study was designed to investigate rotavirus infection by comparing the clinical characteristics in neonates and infants. Methods: We enrolled 104 neonates and 250 infants wiht gastroenteritis and a rotazyme test positive reaction at the Soonchunhyang University Bucheon Hospital from February 2001 to January 2003. Results: The seasonal peaks of infection in infants occurred from February to June. However, in neonates, it occurred from October to December due to nursery outbreaks. Diarrhea, vomiting, fever and convulsions were significant symptoms in infants; however, metabolic acidosis with dehydration, jaundice, irritability, apnea, bloody stool, gastric residual, grunting, poor oral intake, lethargy as well as fever and diarrhea were more common in the neonates. Upper respiratory infection, pneumonia and bronchitis were present in the infants; however, necrotizing enterocolitis was more commonly observed in the in neonates. Among the patients with rotaviral infection, formula feeding was more popular than breast milk feeding in both the neonates and infants; however, this finding was not statistically significant. Conclusion: Rotavirus can be a significant pathogen in neonates as well as infants. Neonates suffering from fever, poor oral intake, lethargy and apnea should be investigated for rotaviral infection. A new vaccine, rotaviral specific immunoglobulin and treatment guidelines are needed for eradicating rotavirus infection. Further studies on isolation, infection pathway, immune response and treatment of rotavirus are needed.

  • We have experienced two cases of mycotic aneurysms of the superior mesenteric artery The first case originated from septic embolism of Infective endocarditis and the second case originated from salmonella enteritis eight months before The aneurysms were diagnosed by abdominal ultrasonography and comflrmed by computed tomogram and dngiography but the blood culture was negative in both cases at the time of the surgery. Both patient ere successfully treated by resection only and the restorations of vdsculdr continuity were not neccesary because of adequate collateral circulations to the intestine. Both pd.tient's postoperative courses were uneventful after the follow up of one year and nine months, respectively.

  • Purpose : As the number of children who attend child care centers has increased, concerns has increased about the effect of child day care on childhood illness. This study was conducted to examine the relationship between experience in child care and common infectious diseases in children under 5 years of age. Methods : Data were collected by surveying 1,000 respondents with children under age 5 through online interviews using a structured questionnaire. The contents of the survey were composed of demographic characteristics, child care facilities usage, experience in infectious diseases, and immunization status Results : Among the 1,000 children <5 years of age, 78.5% attended a child care facility. Rates of common communicable illnesses were higher in children in child care than for children reared exclusively at home. The predominant communicable diseases which the respondents' children experienced, in order of decreasing frequency, were gastroenteritis (47.1%), otitis media (41.8%) and pneumonia (19.1%). The immunization rate of vaccines that are not included the national immunization program (NIP) (Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccine - 76.6%, hepatitis A vaccine - 63.3%, pneumococcal vaccine - 59.4%, rotavirus vaccine - 43.1%) was lower than that of the NIP vaccines (90.4%) Conclusion : Children in child care experience more bouts of common infectious disease, so nationwide policies to prevent or to control the spread of infectious agents in a child-care should be available and appropriate immunization should be emphasized as the most effective method for the control of infectious disease for children.

  • 최근 오리 농가수 및 사육수수의 급격한 증가와 규모화가 빠르게 진행되어 왔으나 각종 질병(전염성질병, 비전염성질병, 중독증 등)에 대한 피해가 크게 발생되고 있지만 이들 질병들이 어느 때 얼마만큼 피해가 주고 있는지 상황파악이 아주 미흡한 상태이다. 이렇게 농가수와 사육수가 늘어난 근본적인 이유는 외식산업의 발달과 붉은 고기이면서도 건강에 좋다는 선호도가 높아지면서 오리산업의 외형적 성장에 그 기반을 두고 있다. 오리에서 발생되는 질병으로는 오리패혈증(리메렐라 감염증), 오리 바이러스성 간염, 대장균증, 살모넬 라감염증, 마이코플라즈마병, 오리바이러스성 장염, 조류인플루엔자, 보튤리눔중독증 등 다양하며 국내에서는 오리바이러스성 장염을 제외한 위에 기술된 모든 질병이 현재 발생되고 있는 것으로 추정되고 있다. 위에 기술된 질병들 중에서 현재 가장 문제가 되고 있는 질병으로는 오리패혈증과 오리 바이러스성간염이다.
