The incidence of cerabral paralysis in Ha Tay Province is counted by 2 ways: the incidence on lower 5 years old children an “the incidence on newborn”. The incidence on children who were borned from 1/1/1994 to 31/12/1997 live to 5 years old is 3.01/1000 in which the highest years (1996) is 4.69/1000 and the lowest years (1994) is 1.97/1000. Rate of getting cerebral paralysis take 1/3 new cases at the same age group. Rate of death at ≤ 5 age take 1% nearly (112/1620). The rate include death in newborn. Number of ≤ 5 children death due to cerabral paralysis take 11% death cases total. New suffer cerabral paralysis rate from 1994-1997 is 4,18/1000 alive children

Used second order derivative UV (200-500nm) spectrum to determine the quantity of nimesulid in tablets without through process of deal with sample. Assess linear interval, limit of detection, limit of determine the quantity between level of nimesulid solution and value of second order derivative in interval of study level, degree of accuracy of the method and result of determine the quantity of nimesulid. The result showed that: process of quantitative nimesulid was built. The method was accurate, sensitive, precise, and reproducible and could be applied directly and easily to the pharmaceutical preparations.

The results of Danver test and Raven test on 238 > 6 years old of age children with cerebral palsy in HaTay province were assessed. With Ravent test, only 2% among them had not mental retardation, but 98% had mental retardation in various levels. Among the subjects of floppy form of cerebral palsy there is not any case of normal mental level, but a light level of retardation. With Denver test, 26% of cerebral palsy children had got normal development in comparing with the other.

The study was conducted at Hanoi Obstetrical and Gynecological Hospital, combining quantitative and qualitative research methods. Results: the study showed that there was a tendency for pregnant women to over-use ultrasound scanning. The reasons for this included women’s perceptions of the usefulness of ultrasound scanning, their serious worries for the fetus, as well as the effects of the market economy on this health service. Over-use of obstetrical ultrasound scanning was not only related to the perception, demands and psychology of pregnant women, but also to socio-economic changes associated with the economic reforms and the liberalization of the health care system.

During the five-year period of 1991-1995, there were 840 children suffered from primary nephrotic syndrome including 52 of acute renal failure with a frequency of 6.19%. In treating, 35.72% of patients got a most rapid decrease of oedema, 66.67% remained lasting oedema, 19.23% got a urine volume restored after 3 days. Before the treatment, hypertension occupied 44.68% and after treatment 27.68% of patients. In 52 studied patients, good response to the treatment occurred in 44 (84.62)%, 8 (15.38%) got the chronic form of renal or died. In regard to laboratory data, in patients with light decrease of blood albumin level, renal function were well restored, while with large decrease, it was worse even could be transformed to chronic or deadly form. In 90% of patients, the BUN/blood creatinine ratio was 20

This study was carried out in 72 healthy adults of working age, non-smoking, and non-exposure to occupational carbon monooxide. The results showed that substances coming from factories did not pollute their indoor environment at home. The hemoglobin (Hb) contents of examined persons was within the normal range of 122-165 g/l. Average CarboxyHemoglobin (HbCO) was 0.789+/-0.382%, ranging 0.000 to 1.500%.

Study on the pathogens of septicemia in order to choose appropriately antibiotics in the treatment. Subjects were 138 septicemia patients admitted to Institute of Infectious and Tropical Diseases from June 2001 to May 2002. All patients were taken their blood samples to isolated and culture bacteria during they had high fevers or before taking antibiotics. Some pathogenous bacteria were isolated and identified in 20.3% patients. The most common species were S. aureus (accounted for 42.4%), followed by Enterobacteriaceae (28.8%)
