Background:Mesenchymal stem cells derived from bone marrow and adipose tissue are being applied to tissue engineering and cell therapy. The use of stem cells of various clinical applications is highly expected and the production of good quality stem cells is very critical for basic studies. In the bone marrowmesenchymal stem cells from an unique niche in which the oxygen tension is low. Hypoxia may have a role in maintaining stem cell fate, self renewal and multi-potency. We investigated whether low oxygen culture would be beneficial for mesenchymal stem cell. Results:BMCs from 8-10 week aged, 6 mice were subjected to hypoxic conditioning by culture for 7 days in 20%, 3%, 1% oxygen. For culture 1x106 cell/ml were seeded in media with L-glutamine in each dish. During the culturing, cell colonies were checked once in three days. After cell culture, we stained cells by CD90 then counted CD90 positive cells by fluorescence microscope. More colonies and mesenchymal cells were observed at 3%, 1% oxygen and also colonies were bigger in hypoxic condition. Statistical significances were identified mesenchymal cells (p<0.05) in hypoxic condition. Conclusions:Our data suggests low physiological oxygen culture could improve the differentiation of mesenchymal cells. Long term culture will be necessary to confirm whether low physiological oxygen levels also improve genomic stability.

Today, in technologically updated world medicine, laparoscopy is more preferable than the common, open surgery procedures. There is a lack of scientific studies on laparoscopic surgery in gynecology, especially its present state and further tendencies. Therefore it served us as the background of the study.Retrospective study was conducted on 2016 laparoscopic surgery histories, which were performed in 2010-2014, at Mongolian state and private obstetric-gynecological hospitals and clinics. The study was developed by the program SPSS21.In 2010-2014 totally 2016 laparoscopic surgeries was performed: 713 – in First Maternity Hospital, 653 – in Bayangol hospital, 429 - inASE hospital, 221 – in National Cancer Center of Mongolia. The patients were classified by their age, education state, and citizenship. Mean age of these patients was 33.03 ±7.6(min 12, max 70). By educations: the 72.4% (1460) of them were high educated, 18.2%(367) has the secondary education, 4.7%(95) – college education, 4.5%(91) – 8th grade education, and 0.2%(3) – elementary school education or non-educated. The 81.8 %( 1649) patients were citizens, the 18.15 %( 366) – from rural areas. And only 0.05% (1) was the foreigner. We noted 7 %( 14) cases that shifted from laparoscopic surgery to open procedure. The post surgery average bed day was 2.7 ±1.3 (min 1, max 12), duration of the laparoscopic surgery 58.46 ±31.6 minutes (min 10, max 260). The average amount of blood loses during the surgery was 76.17 ±69.3( min 5, max 700),The relevance of the surgery duration and preoperative bleeding was(r-0.445). Various diagnoses were involved in the study: the 25.9% (524) of them had second infertility, ovarian endometriosis cyst- 10.5% (212), ectopic pregnancy- 9.4% (189), hydrosalpinx- 7.5% (152), endometrioma ≥ 4.5 cm - 6.3% (128), ovarian follicularcyst- 6.3% (128), ovarian cancer- 5.7% (115), primary infertility- 5% (101), ovarian dermoids cyst-4.3% (86), endometrioma ≤ 4.5cm- 3.4% (68), others-15.7%. Surgical procedures are classified by their purposes: 29% (584) of surgery for examine the fallopian tube using contrast for medium and divide adhesion, 17.6% (354) – to remove ovarian cyst, 12.8% (259) – to examine fallopiantube using contrast and remove ovarian cyst, 9.4% (189) – to remove fallopian tube, 7% (142)- to remove endometrioma, 6.3% (128) – to examine uterine tube using contrast dye, 6% (121)-ot do hysterectomy, 11.9%- for other reasons. The 76.7% of all surgeries were done within one hour and there was moderate correlation between duration of surgery and bleeding (r-0.445). The secondary infertility was the most common diagnosis. And the laparoscopic manage of adhesion and hystersalpingography were performed more. According to the study, non-cancerous growth of uterus was 9.7 and the 6% of it surgeries was laparoscopic myomectomy.

IntroductionNowadays the risk factors for thrombosis include blood stasis, vessel wall injury, and hypercoagulability, as proposed by Virchow over 150 years ago. We chose to study affect of Zomoshin 6 tan to the model of thrombosis formed in experimental animal. It was written in books and sudar that it has action of treating some type’s disease such as blood diluting, meeting frozen blood and treating some gynecological disease.PurposeTo study affect of Zomoshin-6 tan deep vein thrombosis model formed in experimental animal.Material and Methods30 male rats of wistar bread with 180-220 gram of weight for control group, experimental group or Zomoshin-6 tan and comparative group Warfarin. Thirty rats were equally divided into 3 groups: Group 1 received saline alone, Group 2 received Zomoshin-6 (200 mg/kg), and Group 3 received Warfarin as a positive control (0.25 mg/kg), seven days prior to the assessment of thrombus formation. Thrombus formation was also assessed histopathologically. Thrombi were detected in all rats after experimentallyinduced thrombosis.ResultsHistological analysis demonstrated the presence of thrombosis in the interior vena cava (IVC) of the control group, which contained fibrin, erythrocytes, and leucocytes and obstructed the lumen. Only a small amount of fibrin clot, containing a few leucocytes and large numbers of erythrocytes, were observed in the Zomoshin-6-treated group. The thrombus formed in the IVC of Warfarin-treated animals consisted of fibrin clot, which was mostly attached to the wall, with few leucocytes but abundant erythrocytes. These findings suggest that Zomoshin-6 is an effective antithrombotic agent.Conclusion:Zomoshin-6 tan has an action of inhibing thrombosis forming of vein in experimental animal.

Mongolian Journal of Health Sciences 2025;86(2):149-153
Background:
Esophageal cancer ranks as the fourth most prevalent malignancy in Mongolia. Among esophageal disorders,
gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) accounts for 55% of cases, while esophageal motility disorders constitute
40%. Enhancing the diagnosis and management of esophageal disorders, alongside preventative strategies for esophageal
cancer, necessitates a comprehensive understanding and widespread clinical application of esophageal functional assessment.
However, epidemiological data and classification of esophageal motility disorders remain scarce in Mongolia,
highlighting the necessity of this investigation.
Aim:
to identify specific risk factors associated with ineffective esophageal motility (IEM)
Materials and Methods:
This study was performed an analytical case-control design and was conducted at Intermed
Hospital. A total of 702 HRM test results from patients attending the Gastroenterology and Endoscopy Center’s outpatient
department, Intermed hospital Participants diagnosed with IEM based on HRM findings were assigned to the case group,
while individuals with esophageal normal motility disorders were designated as the control group at a 1:2 ratio.
Results:
A total of 612 participants aged 21–80 years were included in this study of whom 57.8% (n=354) were female
and 42.2% (n=258) were male, with a mean age of 51.1±12.7 years. The prevalence of IEM demonstrated a statistically
significant increase in the 60–69 and ≥70 age groups compared to the control group (p<0.000). Participants diagnosed
with IEM exhibited a mean lower esophageal sphincter (LES) pressure of 329.61±246 mmHg and a mean complete liquid
bolus transit rate of 46.88±22.7%, both of which were significantly lower than those observed in the control group
(p=0.000). Furthermore, the incidence of IEM was found to increase in correlation with the severity of hiatal hernia, as
classified by both endoscopic and manometric criteria, demonstrating statistical significance (p=0.000).
Conclusion
IEM is more prevalent among elderly individuals and increases in incidence with the progression of hiatal
hernia size. In cases of IEM, esophageal bolus transit is significantly delayed, and lower esophageal sphincter pressure
is diminished. Further studies are warranted to elucidate additional risk factors contributing to ineffective esophageal
motility.

Background:
Plants have played a significant role in maintaining human health and improving the quality of human
life for thousands of years and have served humans as valuable components of seasonings, beverages,
cosmetics, dyes and medicines. There are a number of medicinal plants used in the traditional medicine
in the Mongolia to form “tan” prescriptions which are mostly consist of the mixture of individual medicinal
plants and used by nomads during the long history for their health care as medicines. Lancea tibetica
(Scrophulariaceae) is a traditional herbal medicinal plant in Mongolia, China and Tibetan. In Mongolian
traditional medicine, L.tibetica different exclusive forms of preparations are effective for treatment of some
disorders such as pulmonary, cough and heart disease.
Aim:
This study aim was to define the biochemical some composition antibacterial activity and mineral elements content in air-dried samples Lancea tibetica of Mongolia.
Material and Method:
The antibacterial activity and Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the extracts was collected of the
seed, aboveground part and root for the Lancea tibetica. From three different organs of plant Lancea
tibetica was collected of the Tsenkher district Arkhangai province (2017.07.28) and Tunel district Khuvsgul
province (2018.08.27) were evaluated by means of the Disk diffusion method against five bacteria
(Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus luteus, Enterococcus
faecalis). We have taken extracts of plant 3 organs from organic solvent (7) ethyl acetate, hexane,
n-butanol, methanol, chloroform, ethanol and distilled water for antibacterial activity. MIC of the extracts
were defined and compared with each other. The macro-and microelements were determined by X-ray
fluorescence spectrophotometer analysis (XRFA).

We have taken a dried seed, aboveground part and root of Lancea tibetica in the investigation. In these three samples were determined biochemical composition of 11 components for quantitative analysis:
moisture was 6.2±0.2%, ash 4.8%, protein content was 1.67±0.1%, raw oil 5.9±0.3%, reduction sugar
0.39±0.1%, vitamin Р 16.6±1.8 mg%, extractive substances 18.6±0.2%, tanning matter 0.05±0.02% and flavonoids 0.2±0.01% in seed. The same moisture was 6.7±0.4%, ash 9.7%, protein content 1.89±0.2%, raw oil 6.1±0.8%, reduction sugar 0.52±0.1%, vitamin С 3.52±2.2mg%, vitamin Р (rutin) 20.3±0.2mg%, carotene 12.8mg%, extractive substances 16.8±0.1%, tanning matter 0.08±0.01% and flavonoids 0.6±0.24% in aboveground part. Besides this, in root: the moisture was 6.1±0.3%, ash was 14.9%, protein content was 2.1±0.3%, raw oil was 2.9±0.2%, reduction sugar 0.62±0.02%, vitamin Р 17.8±0.05mg%, extractive substances 20.3±0.4%, tanning matter was 0.06±0.03%, flavonoid was 0.35±0.002%. Besides this, we revealed the saponin by method quality analysis in aerial part and root of Lancea tibetica. But not triterpenoid saponin in seed. The same not revealed alkaloid all the samples.
Eighteen extracts (5mg/disc) of three organs (seed, aerial parts and root) showed antibacterial activity
diverse. The MIC in ethanol and butanol extracts of seed, aboveground part and root was more than others.
From thoroughly air-dried aboveground part samples of Lancea tibetica from Tsenkher district of Arkhangai province and Tunel district of Khuvsgul province. We determined the 43 mineral elements. 11 elements were defined by percentage, 10 elements were oxide forms (SiO2, TiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, CaO, MgO, Na2O, K2O, MnO, P2O5) of them. Other elements were defined by mg/kg unit. The same heavy metallic, mobile elements (Cu, Cr, Zn, Mn, Pb, Ni, Co) and rare earth elements (Ce, La, Nd, Pr, Sm) were determined.
Conclusion
In the result of this research work to determine the content of biologically active substances in Lancea
tibetica. Plants produce a great variety of organic compounds that are not directly involved in primary
metabolic processes of ground and development. Study of the biochemistry of plant natural products has
many practical applications. Various detectable contents of useful or macronutrient and micronutrient oxide was found in the ash of aerial parts. Some macronutrient and micronutrient elements were detected by oxide forms.

BACKGROUND: In the recent years, mesenchymal stem cells have become increasingly utilized in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering applications because of their properties for self-renewal, differentiation and immunoregulation. The use of stem cells of various clinical applications is highly expected and the production of good quality stem cells is very critical for basic studies. In the bone marrow, hematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cells from an unique niche in which the oxygen tension is low. Hypoxia may have a role in maintaining stem cell fate, self renewal and multi-potency. We investigated whether low oxygen culture would be beneficial for hematopoietic stem cell and mesenchymalstemcell.
MATERIAL: BMCs from 8-12 week aged, 15 mice were subjected to hypoxic conditioning by culture for 8-10 days in 20%, 3%, 1% oxygen. For culture 1x105cell/ml were seeded in colony forming assay and 2x106cell/ml were seeded in L-glutamin mediain chamber slide. We counted cell colonies under different hypoxic condiontins by Olympus IX71 fluorescence microscope. After cell culture in chamber slide, we stained cells by anti-CD90 and anti-CD105 then counted positive cells by Olympus IX71 fluorescence microscope.
RESULTS: Compared to normoxic cells and hypoxic cells well morphologically differentiated and counted by Olympus IX71 microscope. More colonies were observed at 3%, 1% oxygen. Statistical significances were identified with granulocytes and macrophage colony (p<0.05) in hypoxic condition. More anti-CD90 and anti-CD105 markers were observed at 3% oxygen condition. Statistical significances were identified in 3% oxygen condition with cell markers(p<0.001).
CONCLUSIONS: Our data suggests low physiological oxygen culture could improve the stemness of macrophage and granulocytes colony and improve the differentiation of mesenchymal cells. Long term culturewith additional cell markers will be necessary to confirm whether low physiological oxygen levels also improve genomic stability
