OBJECTIVE: To find out the distinctive topographic EEG profiles of subject with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder comparing with age & sex matched control. METHOD: The quantitative electroencephalographies(QEEGs) of 20 drug-naive ADHD patients without any other psychiatric diagnosis were analyzed and compared to age and sex-matched controls using spectral analysis. RESULTS: 1) Slow waves(delta and theta) bipolar relative powers of the diverse areas in both hemispheres increased in drug-free ADHD patients, compared to controls. 2) Delta and theta bipolar relative powers of localized centro-temporal areas in left hemispheres increased in drug-free ADHD patients compared to controls. 3) Interhemispheric coherence and asymmetry are increased in diverse areas in ADHD patient compared to controls. CONCLUSION: We confirmed QEEG abnormalities in pure ADHD patients, especially in frontal and parietal areas. These results are compatible with other structural and functional imaging studies of ADHD.

Premature separation of the placenta(abruptio placentae), as a serious obstetric complication, has been recognized to be associated with disseminated intravascular coagulation(DIC) in the newborn period. However, pathologic evidence for DIC generally has been lacking or rarely reported. Recently we have experienced one case of DIC in an infant born after abruptio placentae. The infant had suffered from cyanosis, dyspnea and convulsion. The peripheral blood smear of this infant revealed severe thrombocytopenia, but there was no evidence of external bleeding. At autopsy widespread hyaline thrombi were observed in the small vessels and capillaries of the brain and liver. The brain showed diffuse cortical and subcortical white matter necrosis associated with hemorrhage. Bilateral symmetrical necrosis of the thalamus was also seen. Massive fresh hemorrhage was present in the endometrium and myometrium. We considered tha tthe above findings were consistent with DIC. Pertinent literatures on neonatal DIC are also reviewed briefly.
