Trough WHO recommendation hysteroscopy is the golden standart technique of uterine cavity evalution. First Maternity Hospital of Mongolia have been implemented gynecological laparoscopic surgery since 2009, then from 2013 we have started diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy. A hysteroscopy may be done to find the cause of abnormal bleeding or bleeding that occurs after a woman has passed menopause. It also may be done to diagnose infertility. Also a hysteroscopy can be used to remove growths in the uterus, such as fibroids or polyps. We evaluated results of gynecological diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy, which was done in First maternity hospital.We took special questionnaires from 39 women and did prospective analyses.39 patients, who were done hysteroscopy were involved our study from November 2013 to January 2015. 51% of participants were reproductive age women. Under 20 years old participants who underwent diagnostic hysteroscopy due to hyperplasia of endometrium were 3%, they were performed biopsy. From all participants 87,2% performed operative hysteroscopy, 12,8% was diagnostic hysteroscopy. After diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy, 97% of patients had no symptoms, but last 3% of patients had lower abdominal pain. If clarify diagnosis which is approved after diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy 51.3% was displaced IUD, 35.9% was endometrial polyp, 2.6% was hyperplasia endometrium, 10.3% was infertility. Complication was 2.6% through postmenopausal participants if compared with premenopausal women. Diagnostic and operative hysteroscopic procedure has benefits for synehia, septum of uterus, endometrial hyperplasia, abnormal uterine bleeding, submucosal myomectomy. From all participants 87,2% performed operative hysteroscopy, 12,8% was diagnostic hysteroscopy. Hysteroscopy was done when displaced IUD (51.3%), polyp of endometrium (35.9%), hyperplasia of endometrium (2.6%), and infertility (10.3%).Complications after hysteroscopy depends from menopause.

Background: Natural protection against Mycobacterium tuberculosis is based on cell-mediated immunity, which most importantly involves CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell subsets. Therefore, the evaluation of CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell profi les are important to evaluate cell-mediated immunity. Immuno-regulating therapy is important in increase of T cell subsets. Objective: To determine some T-cell subsets in active pulmonary tuberculosis patients following immunoregulating treatment in intensive phase of antituberculosis treatment, so to evaluate the treatment effect. Method: This study was conducted in TB clinic of National Center for Communicable Diseases (NCCD) between Aug 2008 and Mar 2009. CD4+ and CD8+-T cells were evaluated in 50 active pulmonary tuberculosis (infi ltrative form) cases before antituberculosis treatment (25 cases with Salimon-Study group, 25 cases without SalimonControl group) Patients with chronic disease, pregnant and alcohol users are excluded. The T cell subsets count was performed by FACSCount fl ow cytometer at the Immunology Laboratory of the NCCD,Mongolia.The monoclonal antibodies to CD3, CD4 and CD8 (Becton Dickinson) were used for the analysis. Result: CD4 count was 605,1242,7 cells/microL, CD8 count-470,92235,7 cells/microL, CD3 count-1130,7425,6 cells/microL, CD4/CD8 ratio was-1,480,67. CD4, CD8, CD3 cells were signifi cantly lower (P=0.05) in active pulmonary TB patients than in healthy Mongolian. And these subsets were signifi cantly lower in older patients (>50 age).There was no statistical signifi cance in sex and other age groups (p>0, 05). There were statistical signifi cances such as CD4 count, CD4/CD8 ratio (CD4-733,95314,38 cells/micro, CD4/CD8 ratio-1.870,7 in treatment group, CD4-570,54213.07 cells/micro, CD4/CD8 ratio-1.260.45 in control group) between TB and control group at the end of intensive phase of antituberculosis treatment (=0,05, =0,001). However, there were not any signifi cance CD8 count and CD3 count between two groups (CD8-423,68174,28 cells/microL, CD3-1212,27453,98 cells/microL in treatment group, CD8-500,67203,74cells/microL, CD3 -1139,33 386,47 cells/ microL in control group) (=0,05). Conclusion: 1. T cell subsets were signifi cantly lower in active,new,smear positive, pulmonary TB patients than in healthy Mongolians (p=0.05). 2. The statistical signifi cance is observed in 50 years and older TB patients (p=0.05). 3. CD4, CD4/CD8 were signifi cantly higher in patients treated with immuno-regulating treatment than in patients of control group (=0,05, =0,001).

Introduction:
Diarrhea is defined as a person excretes more than three times in 24 hours with pathological impurities of more than 10 mg/kg per day. According to the fact sheets of the World Health Organization in 2019, diarrhea is the second leading cause of death among children under 5 years of age. Researchers suggest that about 50 percent of infantile diarrhea occurs in temperate countries and it reaches almost 80 percent in winter which is mainly caused by rotavirus. While immunization is the most effective way to prevent rotavirus infection, there were two types of rotavirus vaccines that have been licensed and available on the global market since 2006. Rotavirus immunization in young children is a safe and effective public health method for controlling rotavirus infection which therefore can reduce childhood morbidity and mortality.
Study aim:
To study the incidence, clinical manifestations, and complications of rotavirus among children hospitalized with acute diarrhea.
Methodology:
The study will be conducted using the observational method including descriptive analysis. Statistical data for 2018-2020 will be obtained and analyzed from the pediatric wards of the “Gurvan Gal” hospital. Children diagnosed with rotavirus diarrhea who meet the criteria to be included in the study will be selectively sampled with further analysis of the incidence, clinical features, toxicity, and dehydration of acute diarrhea according to the medical history.
Results
Universal immunization is important to significantly reduce rotavirus-associated diarrhea, thereby reducing infection and the risk of disease in infants and young children.

Background:
Nicotine-containing vaporized liquids—composed of
propylene glycol, glycerin, water, flavorings, and the thickening agent
vitamin E acetate—have been implicated in the development of EVALI.
Under conditions of low liquid levels and overheating, these substances
release toxic carbonyl compounds (e.g., formaldehyde, acetaldehyde,
acrolein). In a 2019 national survey, 3.5% of adolescents aged 13–15
reported cigarette use, and 10% used e-cigarettes.
Aim:
To study the changes in the behavior, lung, and hippocampal
structures of rats due to the effects of electronic cigarettes and their
vapor.
Materials and Methods:
In this study, nineteen 14-day-old SHR rats
were exposed to 1 g/mg/day of nicotine and dry hit vapor (control, nicotine
and dry hit groups) for four weeks. Behavioral assessments (Open
Field Test, Elevated Plus Maze, Conditioned Place Preference), bronchoalveolar
lavage (BAL), and histological analysis of lung and hippocampal
tissue were conducted.
Results:
The dry hit vapor group showed significantly reduced body
weight (p=0.034), increased anxiety (p=0.006, p=0.025), and avoidance
of the smoky chamber. BAL revealed elevated total cells, neutrophils,
and macrophages (p=0.01, p=0.04) in both nicotine and dry hit groups.
Lung tissue exhibited alveolar septal thickening, inflammation, and emphysema-
like changes. Extensive neuronal death was observed in the
hippocampus.
Conclusion
Anxiety-like behavior was observed in both the burn and
control groups. Analysis of BAL in the dry hit group revealed inflammation
predominantly characterized by macrophage infiltration. Histological
examination of lung tissue from both experimental groups
demonstrated a reduction in the number of alveoli, accompanied by
acute inflammation and thickening of the interalveolar septa. In the hippocampal
region, neuronal loss and a reduction in neuronal density
were also observed.

Introduction Gastric ulcer is one of the most common disorders considering the gastrointestinal tract, it affects 5% of the population around the world, so its prevention and management are considered very important challenges. Researchers have revealed several causes
of gastric ulcer; these include an imbalance between aggressive and intrinsic defensive
factors. Gastric ulcer is a very common gastrointestinal disease that may lead to
dangerous complications and even death.
The aggressive factors include non-steroidal anti- inflammatory drugs(NSAID),alcohol,
psychological stress and Helicobacter pylori infection, cytoprotective intrinsic factors
include mucosal blood flow, bicarbonate, mucus, cell renewal, growth factors, NO
and prostaglandins, NSAID-induced gastric damage is known to be the most common
and dangerous side-effect of these drugs and accounts for 25% of gastric ulcer cases.
Indomethacin (INDO) is considered to be the most common NSAID known to induce experimental gastric ulcer and has been documented to have a higher potential to cause gastric injury than other commonly used NSAIDs.
Most of the drugs which are used for wound healing are imported in Mongolia. It is required to develop drug formulation and increase local productions used for the treatment of wound healing. For the
purpose of solving the above problems, we aimed to prepare new drug formulation from Cacalia hastata L. for the treatment.
of wound healing. Cacalia hastata L. is
a medicinal plant, member of the family
Asteraceae. Cacalia hastata L. is widely
used for the Mongolian traditional medicine
to
treat wound healing, gastric ulcer,
poisoning fever, liver fever, bile fever, oral
cavity, and gynecological diseases

Mongolian Journal of Health Sciences 2025;86(2):125-130
Background:
Silybum marianum, as well as known milk thistle, has long been recognized for its hepatoprotective effects,
primarily attributed to its active flavonolignan complex, silymarin (an extract from water hyacinth fruit). While the
pharmacological effects of silymarin have been studied, research on bioactive peptides derived from Silybum marianum
remains limited.
Aim:
To evaluate the toxicity effects of silybum marianum peptides
Marerials and Method:
This study aimed to evaluate the potential toxicity of Silybum marianum peptide in mice through
a 14-day oral administration experiment. Twenty adult male C57BL/6 mice were divided into two groups: the experimental
group received 200 mg/kg of Silybum marianum peptide daily, while the control group received an equivalent volume
of saline solution. Physiological and biochemical parameters, including body weight, fasting blood glucose levels, liver
and spleen wet weights, as well as alanine aminotransferase (ALT) enzyme activity, were assessed to determine potential
toxic effects. This exploration aims to shed light on the toxicological effects of silybum marianum peptide in mice, providing
insights into its potential benefits and challenges.
Results:
Results indicated no significant differences between the experimental and control groups in terms of body
weight, blood glucose levels, or major organ wet weights. Additionally, ALT enzyme activity remained unaffected, suggesting
no detectable liver toxicity. Throughout the study, no abnormal behaviors, physical changes, or mortality were
observed in the test subjects. Mice in both the silybum marianum peptide and control groups exhibited shiny and soft
fur, normal activity, and regular food consumption. These findings indicate that Silybum marianum peptide exhibits good
safety and low biological toxicity under the tested conditions, supporting its potential use as a safe dietary supplement or
therapeutic agent.
Conclusion
At the designated dosage, silybum marianum peptide demonstrated good safety and low biological toxicity.

Introduction:
Coronavirus infection 2019 (Ковид-19) is an infection caused by a novel virus and induces severe ARDS. КОВИД-19 pandemic has rapidly spreaded in 221 countries, 245,373,039 cases and 4,979,421 mortalities have been reported. Pulmonary and renal thrombotic angiopathy occur in patients with complications of ARDS, sepsis, and multi-organ failure. Elevated D-dimer in КОВИД-19 patients has been reported firstly by doctors in Wuhan, China. In addition, many studies have revealed that elevated D-dimer has been associated with the severity of the diseases, an increased rate of poor prognosis.
Objective:
We aim to determine D-dimer in КОВИД-19 patients, and patient condition a decrease of D-dimer level after administration of anticoagulant therapy.
Case report:
We introduce a rare case of КОВИД-19. Laboratory test results and the effect of anticoagulant therapy have been evaluated during the infection. 85 aged women were admitted with a diagnosis other than КОВИД-19. PCR for SARS-Cov-2 was negative on the previous day of admission, and Sars-Cov-2 Ag rapid test was also negative on the admission day. However, the D-dimer test result was much higher with 7120 ng/мл and X-ray and CT revealed a similar pattern to the КОВИД-19 patient. Then anti-Sars-Cov-2 test was positive with 4,08 COI. Based on laboratory test results of D-dimer, LDH, CRP, and CT pattern the patient was diagnosed with post-КОВИД-19 pneumonia, and anticoagulant therapy was initiated additionally to prevent hypercoagulation induced by КОВИД-19. D-dimer test taken before administration of anticoagulant therapy increased more to 10910 ng/мл. 3 days later D-dimer level decreased to 8180ng/мл and the patient’s condition was improved.
Conclusion
The evaluation of D-dimer of the patients with КОВИД-19 is highly significant. Anticoagulant therapy might be necessary for КОВИД-19 patients with high D-dimer level in serum. Further studies are needed to assess the long-term outcome of the illness and mortality.

Mongolian Medical Sciences 2023;205(4):75-83
Background:
Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by lower motor neuron
loss, leads to progressive muscle weakness and atrophy. With a neonatal incidence ranging from
1:6000 to 1:11000, individuals affected by SMA face challenges in locomotor function. The advent
of newborn screening tests, early diagnostic techniques, and the introduction of gene therapy have,
however, shown promise in enabling the acquisition of these motor skills.
Objective:
This review article seeks to shed a light on current understandings of the epidemiology, clinical
presentations, diagnostic methods, and treatments for spinal muscular atrophy, highlighting cutting
edge approaches within the discipline.
Methods:
A thorough search was conducted on PubMed, Cochrane, National Institutes of Health, and Web
of Science databases for recent research articles concerning SMA’s incidence, prevalence, clinical
manifestations, early detection, genetic testing and contemporary gene therapy.
Results:
The prevalence of SMA stands at 1-2 cases per 100,000 population, with an incidence of approximately
8 cases per 100,000 live births. Pre-1995 studies exhibited varying prevalence rates due to using non
molecular-biological methods, small localized populations, diagnostic errors, and regional characteristics.
Diagnosis involving Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA), quantitative polymerase
chain reaction (qPCR), or next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis to confirm SMN1 and SMN2
gene status aids in identifying carriers and SMA subtypes. Countries implementing newborn screening
programs have demonstrated early SMA detection in asymptomatic newborns, contributing to reduced
mortality and disability rates. Currently, several types of gene therapy are being used in the treatment
of SMA.
Conclusion
The epidemiology of SMA varies between countries and regions. It is fully possible to confirm the
disease, identify carriers and subtypes. The inclusion of SMA in newborn early detection programs is
crucial for reducing infant mortality and disability, and several gene therapies have received approval from relevant authorities for SMA treatment. In Mongolia, it is possible to introduce tests to confirm the
disease and determine carriers and subtypes.

Mongolian Medical Sciences 2024;207(1):20-29
Background:
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a degenerative neuromuscular disease that causes progressive
muscle weakness and atrophy due to the loss of the motor neurons. Approximately 95% of patients
with SMA are homozygous for the deletion of SMN1 exon 7. With an incidence of 1/10.000 and a carrier
frequency of 1/40 to 1/50, SMA is the most common genetic cause of death in infants.
Purpose:
To detect homozygous deletion of SMN1 exon 7 and to analyse the SMN1 copy number by molecular
genetic analysis.
Materials and Methods:
In this study, 3 SMA patients with SMN1 gene homozygous deletion and 17 people of their relatives were
included. Molecular genetic analysis was performed in the Central Scientific Research Laboratory of the
Institute of Medical Sciences. DNA was extracted from peripheral blood, and its purity was assessed by
spectrophotometer. Homozygous deletion of SMN1 gene was analyzed with allele-specific PCR, and
the SMN1 gene copy number was evaluated by real-time PCR.
Results:
Among the five participants diagnosed with SMA by clinical symptom and electromyographic test, three
cases were found to have homozygous deletion of exon 7 of the SMN1 gene, while two cases did not
exhibit such mutation by the allele specific PCR analysis.
The mean age of study participants was 27.76±16.07 (ranging from 8 months to 52 years).
Six of the 7 relatives of the first proband had 1 copy number of SMN1 (0.75±0.29) or were carriers
of SMA, while one had 3 copy numbers (2.99) or no deletion of SMN1 gene. Additionally, 6 of the 7
individuals of the second proband had 1 copy number of the SMN1 gene (0.72±0.14), and 1 person
had 2 copy numbers. All 3 relatives of the third proband had 1 copy number of SMN1 gene (0.96±0.37).
Conclusion
We consider that determination of SMN1 gene homozygous deletion and carrier testing
can be performed by the PCR method locally. Further, it is necessary to implement the molecular
genetic testing method into practice and to study the requirements and needs of early detection of SMA
in the newborn screening program of Mongolia.
