2.Quick diagnosis of japanese encephalitis by MAC-ELISA technique
Journal of Practical Medicine 2004;481(6):5-6
On 138 serum samples taken in the first 7 days of acute syndrome of brain, by MAC-ELISA technique 95 samples were determined as positive, 68.84% was positive. 43 samples taken in the first 7 days of the disease there was no detected antivirus IgM antibody but this could not concluded as negative, but may be a late antibody response or may be another cause of acute brain syndrome. For assuring the accuracy of the diagnosis, the samples taken in the first 7 days of the disease must be taken again after 7 day to verify the results.

3.The results of long-term monitoring 149 patients with gastric cancer received the radical total gastrectomy
Journal of Practical Medicine 2002;430(9):39-44
Studying was performed on the 149 patients with gastric epithelia glandular cancer received a radical total gastrectomy in the Army Central Hospital No 108 during 1/1/1994 - 1/1/2000. The results has shown that the survival rate within 1,2,3,4,5 years from operations for group connected with omega were 76,36%; 60%; 40%; 27,27%; 25,45%, 53,7% and 46%, respectively. There is a significant different between the survival rates of patients with the tumors T3 and T4. There is no different of the survival rate between levels of the glandular metastasis N2 and N3 and between the third phase and the fourth phase.

4.The surgical accident and complication of the total gastrectomy to treat the gastric cancer.
Journal of Practical Medicine 2002;430(9):33-37
149 patients with gastric epithelioglandular cancer were operated for the total gastrectomy in the Army Central Hospital No 108 from 1/1994 to 1/200 (male: 86; female: 63), average ages: 50, divided 2 groups according to the 2 methods of the different digestive circulation recovering. The results have shown that the rate of the tumors in the determined positions as vertical axis and perimeter of stomach the average size of the tumor, the average duration of operation and the rate of accidents were not different between two groups. The average rate of accident during operation was 6,7%, the rate of surgical complication was 18,1%.There was no death.

5.Study on ultrasonic pachymetry on eyes
Journal of Practical Medicine 2002;435(11):18-20
Ultrasonic pachymetry was carried out in 300 eyes of normal, myopic, and senile cataract patients with Alcon Surgical Pachymeter. The mean central corneal thickness was 0.527mm+/- 0.034mm. Corneal thickness wa significantly correlated with age, axial length, and sex. No statistical correlation was found between corneal thickness and the right or left eyes, corneal curvature, and ocular tention (within normal range). Pachymetric results were consistent if a good applanation of the probe occurred. Thus, reliable data could only be obtained by skilled user.

6.The esophageal mucosal lesion after total gastrectomy, recovering the digestive function as type omega and corrective lygidakis.
Journal of Practical Medicine 2002;435(11):48-52
119 patient with the peptic cancer received the total gastrectomy, participated to a study after 6-12 months of operation, were recovered the digestive functions as 2 different methods. The results of esophageal endoscopy and biosy only allowed to determine the levels of lesion but not allow affirm that these lesions due to reflu. However, there were the close relation between the general picture according to the description of boyce and microscopic picture according to the description of Beigi I with the clinical symptoms of the reflux esophagitis. Therefore, they also can be used as a standard of diagnosis. The method of the digestive functional recovering by making the distribution bag DD type Lygidakis showed the obvious efficacy in the limitation of the esophageal mucosal lesion due to the postoperative reflux

7.Living donor liver transplantation - achievement in Asian countries and recent problems
Journal Ho Chi Minh Medical 2004;8(3):128-137
Living donor liver transplantation - achievement in some great Asian centres as follows: There were 306 cases of liver transplantation for 292 patients at Queen Mary Hospital, Hong Kong Medical College, from October 1991 to September 2003; There were 148 cases of living donor liver transplantation at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Kaohsiung, Taipei from June 1994 to October 2003; There were 227 cases of living donor liver transplantation at Tokyo Medical Centre, Japan, from Jan. 1996 to June 2003; In 2002 there were 127 cases of living donor liver transplantation at Asan Medical Centre, Seoul, Korea. Living donor liver transplantation technique was made at some Asian Hospitals, mostly at Asan Medical Centre of Korea. It is different from european countries, most of liver transplantation in Asian were taken from the living donors

9.The protecting effect on liver of Vietnam’s Linh chi mushroom (ganoderma lucidum) on rat suffering from expreimental liver function failure
Journal of Medical Research 2003;24(4):29-34
On white rats, high doses of paracetanol (2g/kg of body mass) and carbonetetrachloride (CCl4 –1.4ml/kg body mass administrated orally) increased dramatically serum transaminase AST and ALT, reduced liver capacity of cholesterol and total protein synthetizations. Granulous degeneration, lipid degeneration and necrosis focus were observed pathohistologically. Linh chi mushroom fluid extracts with the dose of 4g/kg of body mass reversed these biochemical indicators and restored nearly normally the damaged tissues. Similar results were obtained with the oral dose of 25mg Silimarin brand name preparation/kg body mass.

10.Preliminary assessment of the side effects of some chemotherapy to treat malignant diseases of hematopoietic organs
Journal of Practical Medicine 2003;450(4):49-51
From 1995 to 2002, 364 courses of chemotherapy with different regimens, almost gave various side effects such as leucopenia, thrombocytopenia, hypohemoglobin, increase of liver enzymes (SGOT, SGPT,…), enhance urea, creatinine level, nausea, alopecia… with different severity and incidence. The common regimans with more significant side effects were Doxorubicin + AraC (P3), MOPP (P2), CHDP (P1) and VAD (P4); the regimens AraC + Depersolon (P7), Hydrea + AraC (P6) and particularly Hydrea alone (P5) gave usually less side effects
