A randomized controlled trial was carried out on two groups of patients who were received either Flagystatine (nystatin 1000000 UI/metronidazol 500 mg) or Neo Penotran (miconazol 100mg/metronidazol 500 mg), twice a day for 7 days. Gynecological and microbiological assessments were carried out before treatment and 14 days after the first visit. In Flagystatine and Neo Penotran groups, clinical cure rates were 42% and 77.9% respectively; microbiological cure rates were 68.2% and 72.1%. In Neo Penotran group, functional symptoms were reduced more than organic symptom (84.8% and 79.1%, respectively). This difference was not so remarkable in Flagystatine group (64.8% and 65.95, respectively). Side effects of Neo Penotran were insignificant. Neo Penotran therapy without supportive treatment had higher efficacy in vaginitis at dosage of two pill a day in 7 days. The drug showed effects in both of function symptoms and organic symptoms, in clinical and paraclinical

Fetal chromosomal anomalies can be of number or of structure, on autosomal or on sex chromosomes. Prevalence of anomalies was approximately 1/150 of live births. However, some chromosomal anomalies did not show abnormal phenotypes. Abnormality of chromosomes was a main cause of spontaneous abortion and stillbirth, especially early abortion. Most of anomalies happened during gametogenesis of parent having normal chromosomes. The others were inherited by abnormalities from parent who had abnormal genotype but normal phenotype. Chromosomal anomalies are diagnosed by recognizing abnormal chromosome. Diagnosis was recommended when abnormal ultrasound was detected or when there were abnormality in history of mother and family. Chromosomal anomalies increased also with maternal age

Report one case of pregnant woman aged 29 years old, with history of spontaneous abortion 1 year ago, without other medical condition. In this gestation, the last menstruation was on September, 26th 2004, and expected delivery time on July, 3rd 2005, weight gain was normal, and fetus was normal clinically. Ultrasonographic finding showed polyhydramnios and syndactyly on the right hand. Amniotic paracentesis for FISH test result revealed trisomy 18 disorder. This pregnant woman was indicated gestative cessation. Baby was born after 31st of pregnancy, Apgar’s score: 3/4, weight of 1100g, with syndactyly on the right hand, abnormal heels and face (low-set ears, micrognathia), and dead after 3 days

54 patients with acute viral hepatitis of which hepatic coma (8), uncompensate cirrhosis (17) and liver cancer (14) participated to a study have shown that the serum gamma glutamyl transpeptidase ((-GT) activity was slightly increased in patients with viral hepatitis coma and uncompensate cirrhosis. This was a bad sign the (-GT was highly increased in patients with liver cancer. The average serum (-GT activity was increased about 3 times in the acute viral hepatitis. But diagnostic value of (-GT was lower than this of SGPT

54 patients with acute viral hepatitis (8 of those having hepatic coma), 17 patients with unrecovered cirrhosis and 14 patients with hepatoma who were admitted in Bach Mai Hospital form March 1996 to May 1997 were involved in this study. Results showed that serum -GT level is often normally or lightly increased in fulminant hepatic failure and in unrecovered cirrhosis. This suggests that monitoring serum -GT may help to prognosticate for patient with acute viral hepatitis of cirrhosis. Serum -GT activity increases in hepatoma, so the estimation of this enzyme may help to diagnose the disease. Serum -GT activity increases in acute viral hepatitis but is less significance than serum transaminase (SGPT) in diagnosing the disease.

A study on 73 patients including 27 patients with hepatitis A, 33 patients with hepatitis B and 13 patients with hepatitis C in the Institute of Clinical Medicine and Tropical Disease during 1990, 1993, 1994 has shown that most of patients with hepatitis were ages of under 40, especially under 30. The rate of hepatitis A was less than this hepatitis B; male patients were more than female patients. The common symptoms in stage before jaundice were fever, tired and anorexia. The common symptoms in stage of hepatitis jaundice were mucosal jaundice, anorexia and hepatomegaly, SGOT and SGPT were highly increased, and rate of proshombin in hepatitis B lower than this in hepatitis A and E, the blood total bilirubin in hepatitis B was highly increased.

Study on 73 patients with acute viral hepatitis type A, B and E, almost patients with ages of less than 40 year old. The average age of patient with A type AVH (20.39.2 years) is less than that of patient with B type AVH (31.511.5 years) or E type AVH (20.9012.3 years). A, B, E type AVH occurred much more in male than in female. During preicteric phase, fever, fatigue, and loss appetite are symptoms that most patients with A, B, E type AVH complain of. Fever happens more frequently in A type AVH than in B type AVH. The duration of preicteric phase of E type AVH (4.22.4 days) is shorter than that of patients with A type AVH (6.75.5 days) or B type (7.66.3 days). Common symptoms observed in icteric phase of A, B, E type AVH are jaundice, loss of appetite and hepatomegaly. Clinical features and hepatic functional disorders of patient with B type AVH are more serious than that of patient with A and E type AVH.

There are about 20 millions of people infected by dengue virus and 500 cases of haemorrhagic fever admitted to hospital every year in the world in which the mortality rate of the disease was 5%, even 15%. In Vietnam, the dengue fever and haemorrhagic dengue fever was an epidemic that its frequency of circulation was increasingly. During recent 5 years, the morbidity number and the mortality number of dengue fever/ haemorrhagic dengue fever were 10,8431 cases and 234 deaths, respectively. The diagnosis of the disease involved the viral isolation and serum diagnosis. The treatment involved the symptomatic management, close monitoring and timely management of shock

Hepatitis B is common disease in the world. There were 350 millions persons who carry the chronic hepatitis B virus. The hepatitis B may cause the chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis and primary liver cancer. The hepatitis B virus transmitted mainly via blood and drug addiction. The virus also transmitted from mother to their children or by intercourse. The hepatitis B virus included 2 major types with the clinical and para-clinical features in 3 phases.

The immune status in 26 typhoid fever patients has been studied. They are 15 males, 112 females from 16 to 30 years old. This study reveals that: during the fever period of the disease, pronounced disturbances in immune, homeostasis are observed, which are manifested by lymphopenia, with a considerable rise of natural killer (NK) and active rosette forming cells (Ea). At the period of convalescence, the parameters decreased to normal value, except a mild increase of immunoglobulin (IgM, IgG)
