Introduction: There are over 1500 plants on our planet that have anti-diabetes properties. Research findings suggest that more than 400 plant species showing hypoglycemic activity on experimental diabetes in animals.Healthy diet, regular physical activity, maintaining a normal body weight and avoiding tobacco use can prevent or delay the onset diabetes. Recently, numbers of high level researches were conducted worldwide to study the nature and mechanism to treat diabetes, tens of methods were discovered, and dozens of medical herbs were studies, yet very few herbal hypoglycemic drugs without side effects and at low cost are found. Scientists are still in search for development of new and better oral drugs for diabetes without side effect at relatively low cost. Materials and Methods: The research was conducted at the Scientific Research Center of “Monos” Institute of Traditional Medicine and in biochemical Laboratory of “Khuljborjigon” Clinic. For the experiment, we used 23 perfectly healthy mice of same sex and size which meets standards of laboratory testing. The Prozorovski3 quick method for the determination of LD50 in the water (20%) and ethanol extractions (30%) of Antidiabetes-3 preparation (AD3). The tested animals were the white mice. Following Erne (1963), Kovalev I.E.,(1976), Petrov’s (1980) 4 methodology of studying effects on immune system, we have Antidiabetes-3 preparation (AD3) were given to the 33 mice 2 times a day in 3ml/200gr dose, during 7 days. On third day of the experiment, we injected into vein 2ml of 10 % sheep’s RBC to stimulate the immunity. On the fifth day, we defined weight of pancreas, number of pancreatic cells, pancreatic index, and haemagglutination titre to screen RBC antibodies.Results: The method developed by V.B. Prozorovski for the calculation of average lethal number was used on 40 white mice (18-22g). Water extraction (10%) was per fused in the tail vein of the experience mouse and the lethal dose (LD50) was 88.9g/kg. These facts prove that the toxic effect of the AD is low. The water (10%) extractions of “Antidiabetes-3” (AD3) preparation were given to the mice 2 times a day in 3ml/200g dose, during 8 days. We have studying compared group “Salimon and Immunal mixture” (S&I) to the mice 2ml/200g dose, during 8 days. On third day of the experiment, we injected into vein 2ml of 10 % sheep’s RBC to stimulate the immunity. On the fifth day, we defined weight of pancreas, number of pancreatic cells, pancreatic index, and hemagglutinin to screen RBC antibodies (Table 1). Figure 1 demonstrates increase in mice’s spleen weight on the 5th day after stimulation of immunity with sheep’s RBC antigen. Spleen weight increase in AD3 group was 1.6 times higher compare to control group (AD3 group 0.16±0.08; control group 0.10±0.02; p<0, 05), and AD3 group was 1.0 times level compare to control group (AD3 group 0.16±0.08; S&I group 0.17±0.09; p<0, 05). In figure 2, the spleen index in control group was 1.24 times higher than in normal group (control group 0, 0047±0.001; normal group 0.0038±0.0004; p<0, 3), AD3 group’s index was 1.3 times higher compare to control group (AD3 group 0.0061±0.002, control group 0, 0047±0.001; p< 0.05), and 1.0 times lower compare to S&I group (AD3 group 0.0061±0.002; S&I group 0.0062±0.003; p< 0.05). In figure 3, the number of spleen cells of control group’s was 142.71±55.51*106/ml. this is 1.2 times lower compare to normal group which is 172.67±135.5 *106/ml. AD3 group’s spleen cell number was 329.78±187.78*106/ml and 1.61 times bigger than in control group. In comparison to control group, haemagglutination titre of AD3 group was 1.13 times higher (AD3 group 54.86±19.95%; control group 50±8.83%, p<0,05) and this indicates that BV has immunity stimulating effect.Conclusions:1. Was defined the Antidiabet-3 preparation LD50, 88,9g/kg, its toxicity of classification (Sydorov K.K 1973) was little toxicity.2. Was defined to immunity stimulating effect the Antidiabet-3 preparation

WHO informed that across world an average of 565 young people aged 10 to 29 die every day through interpersonal violence. Some studies mentioned that anxiety was most frequently occurred as one of the psychological consequences among victims of child abuse. Recent research on effects of adverse early life experiences on central nervous system as stress systems (hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis-HPA) has provided a greater understanding of the link between childhood abuse and susceptibility to anxiety disorder. Therefore, this research was done to study anxiety among abused adolescents, some physical parameters and level of cortisol in saliva.There were selected 20 abused children and 40 non abused children aged between 11-16 years old and lived in Ulaanbaatar city. The Spence Children’s Anxiety Scale (SCAS; Spence, 1997) is a 38-item self-report questionnaire that assesses multiple symptoms of childhood anxiety disorders based on current diagnostic criteria. All participants were measured the cortisol in the saliva by Cortisol ELISA kit, Sigma, Average age of all subjects in the study was 13.52±1.57 and 59% of them were female and 41% were male. All anxiety symptoms of case group was statistically significance higher (p<0.01) than control group. The average amount of salivary cortisol of case group was (18.65±7.08) statistically significantly lower (p<0.01) than average amount of control group (32.15±20.99).Anxiety was more frequently occurred among abused children and blunted cortisol responses might indicate a level of impaired HPA functioning that could constitute a vulnerability to psychopathology with exposure to anxiety.

BackgroundTraditional Mongolian Medicine has a history of over 5000 years. Scientific development of TM hasstarted in 1959. Since 1999 Mongolia was categorized by WHO as a country having an Integrativesystem of TM- officially recognized and incorporated into all areas of health care provision, TMMresearch has been following key objectives of National R&D programs.AimIn order to assess the situation of TMM development we have conducted this study based on last10 years’ research done.Ìaterial and MethodsDocument study- we have selected key TMM’s R&D project implementers’ archive and humanresources documents.Descriptive and Analytic methods- a survey of 32 questions evaluating participation of TMMprofessionals in R&D work were conducted. Also, to clarify the point of view about TMM’s R&D6 focus group meetings with different level participants, such as professional committee, policymakers and research workers as well as health care providers, were organized.ResultsFrom 2004-2013, there are 28 projects implemented on TMM, 43% accomplished by TMMRTC,32.8% of which is resulting in raw materials standardization and technology study, related clinicalstudies standing 20% out of all studies done on TMM matter. These numbers are confirmed bysurvey and focus group interviews, more than 50% of participants willing to conduct a clinical studyand expressing difficulties such as lack of knowledge of methodology, policy support and revenue.Conclusions:1. TMM R&D has a potential growth due to human resources capacity. Practitioners are leastinvolved in R&D, due to lack of knowledge of methodology and revenue.2. There were 28 projects implemented on TMM matter, most of these are basic studies, fewerclinical studies done, resulting in pharmacopeia monographs and technological guidelines.

Background:
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in both men and women.
In the past decade, histopathological classification of lung cancer has become increasingly
important in selecting the appropriate treatment.
Methods:
All cases of lung cancer diagnosed pathologically in the last 2.5-year period were
retrospectively identified at National Cancer Center and performed by descriptive case series
design.
Results:
The average age of our participants was 62, of which 82.2% were men. A total of 214
cases of lung cancer were reported, including 142 (66.4%) squamous cell carcinoma (SCC),
34 (16%) adenocarcinoma (AC), 4 (1.7%) NSCLC, 29 (13.6%) small cell carcinoma (SmCC) and
5 (2.3%) cases of other/unspecified type. Based on only morphology, initially 32 (17.7%) cases
of NSCLC were diagnosed, whereas after immunohistochemistry (TTF-1 or NAPA positive/p63
negative, and vice versa) staining, this category reduced to 2.2%.
Conclusions
Among both males and females, SCC which is highly related to smoking was
the most common histologic type of lung cancer. Our results showed that an approach of using
only a two-antibody panel (p63 and TTF-1) might help in the reduction of diagnostic category of
NSCLC-NOS significantly.

Abstract
Saposhnikovia divaricata, a perennial herb belonging to the family Umbelliferae, is widely distributed in many provinces of Mongolia. The dried root of Saposhnikovia divaricata has been used for the treatment of arthritis and as a painkiller in Mongolian folk medicine. Moreover,
its dried root (Radix Saposhnikoviae) is used as a Chinese herbal medicine for the therapy of immune system, nervous system, and respiratory diseases. According to phytochemical and pharmacological studies, the main ingredients of Saposhnikovia divaricata are chromones, coumarins, acid esters, and polyacetylenes. These compounds indicate anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, analgesic, antiproliferative, and immunoregulatory activities. Cimifugin is an active ketone ingredient from Saposhnikovia divaricate, Rhizoma cimicifugae. Cimifugin has been reported to have bacteriostatic and antiviral effects. Studies have reported that cimifugin inhibits allergic inflammation by reducing the levels of cytokines. The aim of this review is to provide extensive information on the traditional use, ethnopharmacology, phytochemistry, pharmacology mechanism of action, and health products from Saposhnikovia divaricata .
