Innovation 2015;9(Ophthalmology):46-48
Cataract is the leading cause of low vision and blindness in the world. Most cataracts are related to aging because the life expectancy of population becomes increased in the world.However, the research ofthe types of cataracts has been studied in Mongolia, it is not investigating correlation between in the types of cataracts and the result of biochemistry, therefore it was the background of our research. To determine the correlation among the mongolians aged 50 and older for compare some biochemical results of blood and types of the senile cataract.Total 80 patients with cataract and aged over 50 were case-based selected for the study from November 2010 to November 2011 at the Department of Ophthalmology ofFirstCentral Hospital of Mongolia. There had been collected according to the questionnaire of risks, and records of biochemical examination. Eye examinations had been performed lenses evaluated with the biomicroscope and determined the lens opacities rightly to Lens Opacities Classification Systems-III (LOCS III, the international standard classification). And we used SPSS 16.0, The mean age of all participants was 70 (±9.36) years and 56.2% were female, 43.8% males. The study shows that cataract types: nuclear was 48.8%, cortical 10%, posterior subcapsular (PSC) 41.2%. The hypertriglyceridemia (≥2.26 mmol/L) was associated with PSC (p = 0.025). There was no statistically significant association between blood glucose and cholesterol level and senile cataract. Nuclear cataract was the most common type of senile cataracts in Mongolia. It was same that hypertriglyceridemia was related to PSC developing in comparison of some studies, which conducted in some nations.

Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH) is a major health problem which can lead to lifelong handicapped condition of individuals if early diagnosis is missed. Cost for treatment, surgery and rehabilitation of these cases is much higher than that for prevention. According to Graf, hip ultrasound screening method is simple, reproducible, innocuous and can be performed by well- trained neonatologists. The purpose of this study is to determine prevalence and types of hip dysplasia by Graf standard screening method. A prospective study was carried out. Hip ultrasound screening using Graf method was performed by neonatologists at the Amgalan of maternity of the Capital city from January 2013 to March 2015.Totally 6154 neonates were eligible for the study and 50.9% of them were male, 93.27% term and 6.72% preterm, in 8.53% of babies, type IIa (physiological retardation of ossification)was found. Dysplasia or dislocation of hips (type III and IV) was found in 5 (0.08%) neonates. Babies diagnosed with type I on both hips were discharged. Type IIa cases were stopped being swaddled and reassessed after 4 weeks. Cases with type III and IV cases were all treated with abduction treatment or Tubinger. This study is an ongoing project. The implementation of the hip ultrasound screening according to Graf is feasible and can be performed by well-trained neonalogists in Amgalan of maternity of the Capital city.

INTRODUCTION:Uterine leiomyoma occurs with broad range of 20-50% among reproductive aged women. It takessecond place of all women’s genital diseases that cause abnormal menstrual bleeding. Leiomyomadependent surgical frequency such as hysterectomy is around up to 80, 6%. Lately uterine fibroidembolization treatment is highly effective, less painful, and more rapid recovery, most importantlykeeping organ while maintaining the reproductivity, is successfully entered in practice. We successfullyperformed 40 cases first time in Mongolia and 8 of them conceived naturally after treatment.GOAL:To determine if arterial embolization in women with uterine fibroids (leiomyomata) is an effectivemethod to keep their reproductive organ intact.OBJECTIVES:• To study pregnancy cases in women who had uterine fibroid embolization• To monitor and determine the features of course of pregnancy and childbirth.• To evaluate uterine fibroids.MATERIALS AND METHODS:The study was conducted in 2009-2012. A total of forty women between 23-50 years of age,diagnosed with symptomatic uterine fibroid that received embolization treatment of dominatingarterial blood vessel feeding the uterine fibroids were involved in the study. Eight of the forty womenwho conceived naturally were selected for the study. The study focused on monitoring the course oftheir pregnancy and delivery and its outcome.RESULTS:Among 40 women who underwent bilateral uterine artery embolization, 31 (75.5%) were seeking tobecome pregnant, and 8 of the 31 (25, 8%) became pregnant, four having been nulliparous. Onepatient had two pregnancies. All 8 pregnancies were spontaneous. The mean time from embolizationto conception was 12±3, 5 months (range, 6-27 months). Three medical terminations occurred. Theother 5 pregnancies went to term; one pregnancy had to be terminated pre-term due to placentapraevia. 60% experienced threatened abortion and 1 case with advanced age mother complicatedwith mild preeclampsia. 62,5% of the women’s pregnancy ended with childbirth, of which one woman(20%) had vaginal delivery and the remaining four pregnancies (80%) ended with C-section. On anaverage, post-treated uterine fibroids decreased in volume by 94% in comparison to pre-treateduterine fibroids in the patients who became pregnant. All of the neonates were healthy with Apgarscores greater than8. The mean weight of the neonates was 3,189± 200 g (range, 2,100–3,800 g). One neonate waspreterm due to placenta praevia (2,100 g).CONCLUSION:1. Of the forty women that received arterial embolization treatment with uterine fibroid, thirty one(75, 5%) women desired to keep their uterine for further reproduction, of which eight women (25,8% of the patients) between the ages of 23-42 years (mean age=35) conceived naturally. Arterialembolization to treat women with uterine fibroids is an effective method for women who wish to keeptheir reproductive organ intact to conceive and reproduce.2. 60 percent of the women who conceived experienced threatened abortion and 20 percent of thewomen’s pregnancy had to be terminated pre-term due to placenta praevia. 62,5 percent of thewomen’s pregnancy ended with childbirth, of which one woman (20%) had vaginal delivery and theremaining four pregnancies (80%) ended with C-section.3. On an average, post-treated uterine fibroids decreased in volume by 94% in comparison to pretreateduterine fibroids.

Uterine leiomyomas are common (20-50%) in women of reproductive age. It is a benign tumor and it ranks second place among genital organ disorders in women.To date, abdominal laparotomy and laparoscopic surgical treatment (myomectomy and hysterectomy) are widely used to manage symptomatic leiomyomas.Although, hysterectomy is considered to be a radical method to manage uterine leiomyomas, women who have had hysterectomy are left totally infertile and they also are at risk to develop post-surgical and post-anesthetic complications. The advantage of myomectomy is to preserve women’s fertility and menstrual function but, the probability of recurrence of leiomyoma is 15-30% [1, 2]. Furthermore, depending on the location, size and number of fibroids, duration of surgery lingers, volume of blood loss is high and the risk to develop post surgical adhesions are high too.In recent, more than a decade period, effective and minimally invasive new, non-surgical methods to manage uterine leiomyomas have been introduced in many countries around the world. These methods have short recovery period and are advantageous to women to preserve their reproductive organ and fertility. They include: uterine artery embolization, uterine artery occlusion via transvaginal route and MRI– guided focused ultrasound surgery of uterine fibroids. Antiprogesterone-low-dose mifepristone for uterine leiomyomas are being introduced as well.In our country, managing leiomyomas surgically is still occupying high rate among surgical treatments. Further, to prevent and reduce complications of surgical treatment and to preserve organ, it is essential and imperative to introduce some of the above- mentioned contemporary non-surgical methods.

Background:The cardiovascular disease especially coronary artery disease is the leading cause of mortality in worldwide. There is lack of research study which evaluated stenosis of coronary atherosclerosis. It is known that coronary stenosis is highly connected to the levels of biomarkers. Coronary atherosclerosis correlated with endothelin receptor type A (EDNRA) levels in a group of patients suspected of having coronary artery disease.Objective:The goal of this study was to evaluate the relation between the coronary atherosclerosis and levels of EDNRAMethods:A total of 311 participants were involved in this study. A case-control study was used in the study. The baselines data were collected from the department of Angiography at the National Third Central Hospital and National lilood Transfusion and Research center. We have determined the degree of coronary atherosclerosis using the Angiography machine and Elisa were used for detecting the blood endothelin levels in all groups.Results:98 participants were diagnosed with stenosis and occlusion. The blood endothelin levels were estimated to 6.32±0.64 pg/ml which refer to () degree of coronary stenosis, the first degree of stenosis of coronary atherosclerosis is estimated to 5.56±0.22pg/ml, the second degree of stenosis of coronary atherosclerosis is estimated to 5.42J0.34 pg/ml, the third degree of stenosis of coronary atherosclerosis is estimated to 5.87 H). 13 pg/ml, the fourth degree of stenosis of coronary atherosclerosis is I'SlilllSltll lo 5.69±0.09 pg/ml, it was estimated to 5.88±0.13 pg/ml in control groups. Level of EDNRA (occupying one segment of coronary artery) was estimated to 5.77±0.08 pg/ml. two segment involvement was estimated to 5.72±0.16 pg/ml, three segment involvement 5.73±0.19 pg/ml. four segments involvement 5.50±0.25 pg/ml, respectively.Conclusion:The blood endothelin level and coronary artery stenosis were not correlated statistically significant in control group of the study. However, blood endothelin levels were increased in patients who tend to experience the coronary artery stenosis.

Kidney transplantation is the best alternative treatment for end-stage renal disease and health-related quality of life and survival of the patients are improved compared with dialysis. Worldwide, more than 1.4 million patients with CKD receive renal replacement therapy with incidence growing by approximately 8% annually.1 Unfortunately, despite significant improvement in graft function, kidney transplants can still fail due to acute rejection and chronic allograft nephropathy.2 Kidney biopsy after transplantation, which has evaluated by Banff 09 classification is usefull method for diagnose of transplanted kidney disease.3,4Kidney graft rejection was diagnosed in 10 renal allograft biopsy specimens (bs) obtained from transplant patients followed up at our institute between 2015 and 2016. All specimens were evaluated as satisfactory which show more than 8 glomerulus under the light microscopy. Each renal cortical tissue was divided into two tips: one piece for routine H&E stain and special stains, including Masson’s trichrome, and PAS stain; another piece for immunofluorescence by frozen section, which were stained with IgA, IgM, IgG and complement component (C3, C4, C1q, C4d). All the renal biopsies were examined by the same pathologist.Out of 117 transplantations, 10 episodes of rejection selected. Among the 10 patients, 30% had an acute T cell rejection and 70% had a chronic allograft nephropathy. Interstitial inflammation (i1-7) was present in 7 bs (70%), tubulitis (t1-4,t2-2) in 6 bs (60%), transplant glomerulitis (g1-1, g2-2, g3-1) in 4 bs (40%), transplant interstitial fibrosis (ci1-2, ci2-2, ci3-2) in 6 bs (60%), tubular atrophy (ct1-6, ct2-2, ct3-1) in 9 bs (90%), mesangial matrix increase (mm1-5) in 5 bs (50%), vascular fibrosis intimal thickeness (cv1-3) in 3 bs (30%), arteriolar hyaline thickening (ah1-5) in 5 bs (50%), tubulitis (ti1-6, ti2-3, ti3-1) in 10 bs (100%) and peritubular capillaritis (ptc1-1, ptc2-2, ptc3-1) in 4 bs (40%). C4d deposition was present very mild in wall of the vessels and peritubular capillaries. Because of not good working Methenamin silver stain, we couldn’t demostrate glomerular basement membrane changes (cg) fully.We suggest that histopathological changes of transplant glomerulopathy might be accompanied by inflammation of the microvasculature, such as transplant glomerulitis and peritubular capillaritis. C4d deposition in the wall of the vessels and peritubular capillaritis is not always present in biopsy specimens of transplant glomerulopathy.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab monotherapy or combined with laser versus laser monotherapy in Mongolian patients with visual impairment due to diabetic macular edema.Prospective, randomized, single-center, a 12 month, laser-controlled, clinical trial. Participants: One hundred twelve eligible patients, aged ≥18 years, with type 1 or 2 diabetes mellitus and best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in the study eye of 35 to 69 Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS)letters at 4 m (Snellen equivalent: ≥6/60 or ≤6/12), with visual impairment due to center-involved diabetic macular edema (DME). Methods: Patients were randomized into three treatment groups:(I) intravitreal bevacizumab monotherapy (n=42), (II) intravitreal bevacizumab combined with laser (n=35), (III) laser monotherapy (n=35). Bevacizumab injections were given for 3 initial monthly doses and then pro re nata (PRN) thereafter based on BCVA stability and DME progression. The primary efficacy endpoints were the mean change in BCVA and central retinal subfield thickness (CRST) from baseline to month 12.Bevacizumab monotherapy or combined with laser were superior to laser monotherapy in improving mean change in BCVA letter score from baseline to month 12 (+8.3 and +11.3 vs +1.1 letters; both p<0.0001). There were significant difference detected between the bevacizumab and bevacizumab combined with laser treatment groups (p=0.004). At month 12, greater proportion of patients gained ≥10 and ≥15 letters and with BCVA letter score >73 (Snellen equivalent: >6/12) with bevacizumab monotherapy (23.8% and 7.1% and 4.8%, respectively) and bevacizumab + laser (57.1% and 28.6% and 14.3%, respectively) versus laser monotherapy. The mean central retinal subfield thickness was significantly reduced from baseline to month 12 with bevacizumab (−124.4 μm) and bevacizumab + laser (−129.0 μm) versus laser (−62.0 μm; both p<0.0001). Conjunctival hemorrhage was the most common ocular events. No endophthalmitis cases occurred.Bevacizumab monotherapy or combined with laser showed superior BCVA improvements over macular laser treatment alone in Mongolian patients with visual impairment due to diabetic macular edema.

Objective:
To compare the nature of pregnancy and deliveryin women with leiomyoma who were treated with uterine
artery embolization to the outcomes in women who were treated with abdominal myomectomy.
Material and Methods:
A prospective, clinical study was conducted in 2010-2013 at “Urguu” Maternity Hospital, Ulaanbaatar. 94
women meeting the criteria were selected for the study. Post-treatment, the patients were reviewed for a
period of two years. Uterine artery embolization was performed using polyvinyl alcohol particles (300-500
µm in diameter).
Results:
The percentage of conception in UAE group was 25.5% and 31.9% in myomectomy group (p=0.494);
complication of pregnancy was 50.0% and 57.1% respectively (p=0.729); complication of delivery was
33.3% and 0.0% respectively (p=0.047). 88.9% and 90.0% (p=0.596) had Caesarean delivery. 16 (84.2%)
women had uncomplicated and 3 (15.8%) women had complicated delivery due to placenta praevia,
placenta acreta and uterine hypotonia. These cases all belonged to UAE group.
Conclusion
Pregnancy rates in women with leiomyoma who were treated by uterine artery embolization,
compared with pregnancies after abdominal myomectomy, were similar.(p=0.494) In this study, there
was the rate of Cesarean delivery above 80 percent in both group. There were no differences in newborn
weights and Apgar scores.
