Children under 5 years of age in developing countries are particularly vulnerable to malnutrition. Malnutrition affects 50% of hospitalized children and 25–70% of the critically ill children. Malnutrition interferes with the appropriate response of the body to disease and predisposes to infection and to the onset of multiorgan failure, increasing morbidity and mortality, the mean length of hospital stay, and health costs. Aim: A prospective cohort study of children admitted to the tertiary pediatric ICU between January 2009 and January 2014 was carried out. To assess the malnutrition type, and impact of nutritional status on outcomes like mortality rate, disease, complication in critically ill children.To the study were enrolled 138 children admitted to the pediatric intensive care units of the NationalCenter for Maternal and Childrens Hospital. The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of the MNUMS, and written informed consent was obtained from all study participants. Nutritional status was determined using Waterlow criteria.Total participants were 49.3% (n=68) of male, 50.7% (n=70) female. 138 children with a mean age 4.4 months ±3.6/ Std.Er/, min = 1 month, max = 12 months, mode = 1 month. n=70(50.7%) acute malnutrition, n=58(42%) chronic malnutrition by Waterlow criteria.

Abstract: Turem treatment which corrects defect of the five types of
traditional therapy is a top value that is written to source and
description novel. The turem treatment is contribution in the
traditional medicine from Mongolians. Traditional literature had
taught Indications and precautions for turem treatment and written
110 points in detail. Knee osteoarthrosis is wide spread among the
Mongolians . Because it has many causes: weather , environment,
diet, wrong life style. We measured amplitude of the knee joint by
goniometer and signs and symptoms assessed by Leken’s
functional index (0-6 scores). In our study, before the treatment
knee joint flexion movement was (77.8±50) and after 9 days, flexion
movement was improved approximately by 15,6%, reached
(90±13.20),. Knee extensor movement was increased by 5,2%. The
turem treatments result of flexor movement of knee joint was two
times than mud therapy. Such movement increased by 5,6%
compared to compress therapy.

Innovation 2020;14(1):32-34
Background:
Pneumonia is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in children
around the world. Annually, it’s estimated about total of 120 million cases of pneumonia occur
in children under the age of five around the world and about 2 million of them end in mortality.
In 2017, respiratory diseases constituted 31.3% of all diseases in children under the age of five in
Ulaanbaatar city. 268 cases of respiratory diseases occur in every 1000 children, making it the
leading disease in children of that age group. Sonographic examination has several advantages
including lack of radiation, accessibility, portable (can easily bring it next to the patient’s bed),
cost effective, and can be used repeatedly on the patients. To our knowledge, currently in
Mongolia, there are no published research materials on sonographic examination in children
with pneumonia. Given, the lack of study, increased rate of pneumonia and advantages of
ultrasonographic, the present study was performed to detect lung ultrasound sign of pneumonia
and determine the specificity and sensitivity of lung ultrasound and X-ray.
Methods:
The study used cross-sectional studies of analytical study. 379 inpatient children aged
between 1 month to 14 years old who are in the children’s hospital of Bayangol district between
1st of September 2019 to 1st of December 2019 participated in the study. Procedures included
collection of questionnaires from the parents or the guardians, random collection of data from
the patients’ history, and assessment of results from ultrasound and X-ray examination. The study
used Stata software to analyze the statistics.
Results:
56% or 210 cases showed decreased echogenicity in the ultrasound examination.
Incorporated B line sign (р=0.001),, decreased echogenicity in the consolidation (р=0.001), and
presence air positive bronchus (р=0.001), are shown to the major sign of pneumonia in ultrasound
examination.
Conclusions
In pneumonia, following signs are present in lung ultrasound: Unilateral B-lines,
consolidation, hypoechoic, irregular shaped consolidation, positive air bronchogramm sign
in lung. From the results of our research, we discovered diagnosis sensitivity of pneumonia in
ultrasound is 85%, specificity of pneumonia in ultrasound is 87%, sensitivity of pneumonia in Х ray is
78%, specificity of pneumonia in Х ray is 84%.

:
Background: According to the statistics, Gastrointestinal disorders (GIDs) are the second of the leading five diseases among Mongolians, with an estimated 20% of GIDs by pathological diagnosis in 2022.
Additionally, esophageal adenocarcinoma is ranked in the 4th of the 10 most common cancer. Esophageal adenocarcinoma and its predispositions, and pathological changes are mostly located lower part of esophagus. Barret’s esophagus (BE) is consequences of goblet cell replaces
the stratified squamous epithelium due to chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease. If BE transfers to the dysplasia, its probability of carcinogenesis is 30-125 times higher, and 0.8% of dysplastic patients
with BE diagnosed with esophageal adenocarcinoma.
Pathologists play a critical role in confirming the diagnosis of BE and BE-associated dysplasia. Goblet cells are almost always identifiable on routine hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections with Alcian blue (at pH 2.5).
Purpose:
To diagnose the esophageal biopsies via pathological immunohistochemical assay.
Methods and materials:
We investigated 130 biopsies in 2017-2019 years from NFCH, and 254 biopsies in SSCH.
Result
A total of 384 biopsies were collected from both national central hospitals and hematoxylin and eosin-stained results were Barret’s esophagus (50 biopsy or 13%), followed by dysplasia (66 or 17%), GERD
(55 or 14%), squamous cell carcinoma (49 or 13%), chronic erosive lesions (41 or 11%), chronic esophagitis (40 or 10%), polyp (19 or 5%), adenocarcinoma (15 or 4%), acute esophageal erosion (5 or 1%), hyperplastic polyp (36 or 9%), and were others (8 or 2%), respectively.
As a result of immunohistochemical re staining of 50 biopsies with BE, Alcian blue were 87,8% and PAS were 97,4%.

Purpose:To identify theeffect of Antacid calcium-preparation on
gastroeosophageal reflux disease by using pH meterfor 24 hour
monitoring analysis. Study methodology:A randomly controlled test was
used for the study. Study objects were administered Antacid calcium-6
preparation and their gastric acidity level was identified by pH monitoring
analysis for 24 hours. Theimpact of preparation in regards with before
and after treatment and their relationship were analysed by t-test.
Results:The 24-hour pH meter analysis of Antacid calcium-6 preparation
indicated that before administration of preparation the
gastroeosophageal pH=5,75±0,14, which has increased after the
administration to pH=9,7±0,02 and the average duration was 7,8±0,09
days. In other words, the alkalinizing effect was statistically significant
(p<0.001). Also, According to the criteria developed by the DeMeester,
the daily prevalence of reflux, the prevalence of reflux that continued for
more than five minutes and the DeMeester index indicated that the
preparation was significantly efficient (p=0.041). The neutrialising effect
of the preparation was established by using the criteria method
developed by G.A. Agafonova and A.P. Kholopov (1984), and after
administering the preparation, the gastric level was pH=4,6±1,5 indicating
that the preparation had a neutralising effect. The average duration for
neutralization was 19,3±0,9 hours. Conclusion: Аntacid calcium-6
preparation was effective in neutralising the gastric acidity and it was
appropriate for treatment of GERD, chronic gastritis.

A.P.Kholopov scores, time to neutralize gastric acidity by time to
gastric acidity return normal. First stages results are this preparation
alkalified eosophagus (р<0,001). The second stage: Participants are
given Antacide calcium-6 for 21 days p.o (1 times per day, in 10
A.M, 1.5g) after collected GerdQ questions and did
gastroeosophageal flexible endoscopy. Treatments results
evaluated by GerdQ and Antacide calcium-6 decreased to gastro-
eosophageal reflux by 72.1% (р<0,001). Eosophageal mucous
membrande changes were 86.11% (n=31), gastric inflammation’s
actitity was decreased 72.22% (n=26) by endoscopic examination.
In conclusion, Antacid calcium-6 biological preparation has
neutralizing actions to gastric acidity. Therefore this preparation is
comfortable to treat GERD and chronic gastritis.

Background:
Non-traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) represents the most devastating subtype of stroke, charac
terized by spontaneous bleeding into the brain parenchyma. This neurological emergency carries a burden of mortality
and long-term disability worldwide. Timely identification causal pathways is priority objective for adequate primary and
secondary prevention of ICH. Risk factors may differ between ICH subtypes, and stratified approaches to management
may be appropriate.
Aim:
This study is to identify cause and risk factors of ICH.
Materials and Methods:
A single centre descriptive study was carried out in Stroke Center of the State Third Central
Hospital, Mongolia, including 718 consecutive acute patients with ICH during October 2022 to September 2024. Patients
were classified using SMASH-U, an etiological based classification system.
Results:
Out of a total of 718 cases diagnosed with ICH, hypertension caused 75.3%, amyloid angiopathy 12%, undetermined 7%, structural lesions 2.92%, systemic disease 2.37%, medication 0.48% in 718 ICH patients. The mean age of
the cases was 57.5 жил, and was the most common in men of the 50-59 age group (p<0.001). The main risk factor in hypertension and amyloid angiopathy groups was arterial hypertension (93.7%), in undetermined group alcohol consumption (48%), in structural group AVM and other vascular causes (23.8%), in systemic group chronic kidney insufficiency
(29.4%), in medication group atrial fibrillation (100%), respectively.
Conclusion
1. ICH was mostly caused by hypertension, amyloid angiopathy, systemic disease.
2. Arterial hypertension, heart disease, atrial fibrillation, previous stroke, oral anticoagulants, smoking, alcohol consumption, obesity/BMI≥25, liver cirrhosis, chronic kidney insufficiency, AVM and other structural anomalies were
the most common risk factors.

Mongolian Journal of Health Sciences 2025;85(1):155-158
Background:
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) composes up to 28% of the esophageal disorders, and diagnosis
of GERD is associated with a 10-15% of risk of Barrett’s esophagus, change of normal squamous epithelium of the distal
esophagus to a columnar-lined intestinal metaplasia. It is reported that gastrointestinal (GI) disorders are the second out of
five leading diseases in ambulatory diagnosed diseases and in 2022, esophageal adenocarcinoma is ranked in the fourth of
the 10 most prevalent cancers among Mongolian population. When the Barrett’s esophagus changes shift to dysplasia, risk
of esophageal adenocarcinoma development rises 30-125 folds and every year, 0.8% of population with dysplastic changes suffer from esophageal carcinoma. Although specific staining methods for histochemical analysis has been introduced
into pathological laboratories detecting protein, fat, nucleic acid and enzymes that contained in cells, there isn’t study has
been conducted to investigate the diagnostic specificity of Alcian blue and PAS staining method among population with
Barrett’s esophagus.
Aim:
We aimed to make a differential diagnosis with basic and histochemical staining method in esophageal biopsies
from Second Central Hospital of Mongolia (SCHM) and Mongolia-Japan hospital of MNUMS.
Results:
A total of 589 biopsies were collected from the SCHM and Mongolia-Japan Hospital of MNUMS and hematoxylin and eosin-stained results were Barret’s esophagus (43 biopsies or 7.3%), followed by Squamous cell carcinoma
(46 or 7.8%), GERD (60 or 10.2%), hyperplastic polyp (92 or 15.6%), chronic erosive lesions (242 or 41%), polyp (94
or 15.9%), adenocarcinoma (12 or 2%), respectively. We have re-examined 43 cases with Barrett’s esophagus staining
with Alcian blue and PAS and as a result, acidic mucin will be blue, neutral mucin will be purple, mixed mucin will be
blue-purple and nucleus will be stained blue, respectively. Immunohistochemical re-staining of 43 biopsies with BE, Alcian blue were 87.8% and PAS were 97.4%.
Conclusion
Barrett›s esophagus, esophageal papilloma and hyperplastic polyps are comprising most of the esophageal
precancerous disorders, and 9.8% of esophageal carcinoma was diagnosed. Histochemical re-staining of esophageal intestinal metaplastic changes is significantly beneficial to confirmation of the diagnosis.
