A study on the process of treatment of 40 patients with the nephritic syndrome, without the renal failure by prednisolone from 12/1996 to 5/1998 has shown that 100% patients had a high increased concentration of total cholesterol (CT) and low density lipoprotein (LDL); 90% patient had an increased concentration of triglyceride (TG) and 15% patient had an increased concentration of high density lipoprotein (HDL); 100% patients had an increased concentrations of proteinuria over 3.5 g/24 hours. After 2 weeks of treatment, the concentrations of CT, LDL, TG were reduced but were not significant different from these in baseline. The proteinuria was reduced to 40%; concentration of HDL was gradually increased. Their reductions were significant different from these before treatment but risks were high. 75% patients had negative proteinuria.

Dyslipidemia is very common in nephrotic syndrome, but in clinical practice this problem is not much interested in, although hyperlipidemia can make dangerous complications for the patients. This study examined the variety of dyslipidemia after steroid treatment in patients with nephrotic syndrome but without renal failure. We studied on 40 patients with nephrotic syndrome at HuÕ Central Hospital and found that before treatment, total cholesterol and LDL concentrations are high. After two-week therapy, these concentrations decreased but insignificantly. After four-week therapy, total cholesterol and LDL concentrations decreased, HDL concentration increased. There was significant difference in comparison with the pre-treated concentrations (p<0.05).

A 26-year male patient admitted for severe head trauma. The patient was given tracheotomy and inserted Cavafix-type catheter into left subclavian vein. After 14 days, the surgeon cut off the catheter unintentionally during cutting the suture on the skin. The remain catheter section was dept. Chest X-rays showed that the distal of catheter was in the right atrium. Intravascular interventional procedure produced successful result with minimal invasion and spared the risk for patient.

A study on 60 patients with the cerebral lacunar infarction, ages of 20-85 and 60 patients with cerebral infarction (control), ages of 20 -87 has shown that the syndromes of cerebral lacunar infarction comprised hemiplegia type of merely moving, speaking disorder hemiplegia type of combination of sense and moving, merely sense accident and other lacunar syndromes. The risk factors of diseases were hypertension, diabetes and smoking.

Background: Abnormal chromosome may be abnormal in number or structure of chromosomes related to normal chromosomes or sex chromosomes. One sign of abnormal chromosomes that we can observe during pregnancy is the abnormal ultrasound images. Objectives: To discover the relations between the chromosomal abnormalities and some fetal abnormalities determined by ultrasound. Subjects and method: A prospective descriptive study combined with a retrospective study on 250 pregnant women with fetal abnormalities from Aug 2006 to Aug 2008. Results: Among 250 pregnant women with fetal abnormalities determined by ultrasound taken amniocentesis, rate of late amniocentesis (over 20 weeks) was the highest (50.8%), while rate of ideal amniocentesis (16-20 weeks) only accounted for 29.6%. Abnormal chromosomal rate of multiple abnormalities of fetus statistically significant were higher than that of mono abnormal of fetus (46.8% vs. 18.5%/ p<0.0l). Conclusion: Abnormal phenotype determined by ultrasound; rate of chromosomal disorder was 27.2%.

50 patients with the odontopathy and odontic advantages of technique of the three dimensional obturation/warm vertical condensation of gutta- percha included easy implementation, close obturation of the accessory root canals and high rate of healing the lesion of endodontic origin and limitations included no application for the odontic pedicle that have not been closed.

Hemorrhage occurs within 48 hours after accident onset. In fact, there was not any case in which the hemorrhage occurred before 6 hours. 4 week serial and continuous CT scanner imaging showed that hemorrhagic cerebral infarction occurred within 24 hours in 10%, within 7 days in 39% and within 14 days in 54%. In this study, hemorrhagic cerebral infarction occurred within 1 to 3 days in 40%, 4 to 10 days in 50% and 11 to 30 days in 3%. These results are limited because the serial and continuous CT scanner imaging is less to be performed. All of 30 patients have bleeding from middle cerebral artery. CT scanner imaging showed that hemorrhagic infarction occurred in 24 out of 30 patients (80%) and parenchymal hematoma occurred in 6 patients (20%)

The "hole" ulcer is the first-line calamity of leprosy patients. The conventional treatment for "hole" ulcers included: wetting the skin by some oils, applying antibiotic pomade, casting and wearing specific-designed shoes. The patients treated by He-Ne laser were divided according to the hole size. The external radiated He-Ne laser is a safe and easy-to-used method, provides good results (116/119 patients). The combination between laser irradiation and conventional methods produce higher results

Private medical and pharmaceutical facilities were working during 9-12/1998 in 4 districts of Hoan Kiem, Dong da, Tu liem, and Gia lam in Ha noi. Method: direct interview by questionnaire, direct observation and analysis of reports. The results: the establishment, exist and development of the private medical and pharmaceutical facilities depended on the decree of the pharmaceutical and medical activity- a highest legal basis promulgated in 1993.
