1.ABC of Enuresis.
Journal of the Korean Medical Association 2002;45(3):289-298
Physicians need to be prepared with basic understandings of enuresis and practical tips to diagnose and treat the patients properly. The knowledge about the natural history, epidemiology, and etiology of enuresis, not to mention multiple treatment modalities available, are essential, Medical consultation and treatment of enuresis begins at the age of 5. Evaluation should include history taking, physical examination, and laboratory investigations. A checklist may be provided for quick evaluation in busy clinics. The two main treatment modalities are behavioral modification with an alarm system and pharmacotherapy with desmopressin or imipramine, or oxybutinin. The response to treatment is evaluated after a 1-to 3-months' period of treatment. further evaluation and individualized treatment are needed in poor responders. Normalization of a small functional bladder capacity may help to cure enuresis and treatment of enuresis with antibiotics is effective in children with urinary tract infection, bacteriuria, or cystitis cystica.

Journal of the Korean Medical Association 2011;54(5):523-529
The aim of this article is to provide guidelines to diagnosis and therapeutics for HLI in Korea. Head lice infestation (HLI) caused by Pediculus humanus capitis is still common in Korean children in spite of an improvement since the 1980s in the country's economic status and the concepts of hygiene. HLI is troublesome and, if not treated, can lead to secondary bacterial infection as a result of scratching of the irritated scalp induced by an inflammatory reaction to injected saliva or anticoagulant. In addition, HLI causes social and psychological problems as well as physical symptoms. Confirmation of the HLI depends on identification of adult lice, nymphs, or viable nits. Nits are more commonly found at the nape of the neck and retroauricular areas. The differential diagnosis includes hair casts, dandruff, and debris by hair spray. Few chemical shampoos such as those containing lindane or pyrethrin are currently available in Korea. Although HLI is an important public health issue in Korea, little information is available on HLI. Medical doctors, school nurses, and teachers should be acquainted with HLI for the successful control of this disease, which is distressing a number of children covertly.
