The fluidextract of PG (2ml contains 1 g radix of PG) was used to evaluate its cardio vascular effects on dog blood pressure, frog isolated intestine. Our experimental results show that: The fluidextract of PG in dose of 0.7g/kg body of weigh (correspond to the clinical dose) per oral route decreases blood pressure by 24.1% in comparison with initial level. PG influences both on the heart frequency and on the heart amplitude depending on the utilizing doses. Low doses have stimulating effect whereas high doses inhibiting one. PG with our experimental doses provoke vasodilatation but don't influence on the intestinal peristalsis

34 paired mother - infant blood samples collected from neonatal tetanus cases in National Institute of Pediatrics, Hanoi were examined for tetanus antibody. The results showed that 100% of blood samples were negative in both mothers and their infants.

Theophylline is one of drugs, which have the confined concentration of treatment (10-20mcrg/ml). Uptake, release depend significantly on individuals, thus the control of concentration is the obligatory affair to guarantee effective and safe. Many studies have been demonstrated that the concentration of theophylline in saliva and plasma have been had closely interrelated rate and quite stable. This rate about 0.5-0.6. Therefore, the suggestion use of concentration of theophylline in saliva to evaluate on comparing bioavalbility of manufactured products, which is necessary affair with high practicability

352 patients were firstly diagnosed as basedow in the Army Central hospital 108 during 1996- 1997 participated to a study. The patients were classified according to the age groups, the types of changing the T3 and T4. The comparison of the level of T3 and T4 with the clinical diagnosis has shown that the level of T3 and T4 were an important criteria to monitor the progress of the disease, evaluate the normalization of the thyroid and help the indication for surgery.

Studying retrospectively 117 cases of atherosclerosis in the Hospital of Hematology and Blood Transfusion in Ho Chi Minh city showed that: atherosclerosis is very common in elderly and the form of calcified plaque accounts for highest rate. Atherosclerosis is usually associated with other pathological status such as CHA, blood lipid disorder, diabetes and obesity

Objectives: To evaluate the influence of Ganoderma lucidum on cholesterol drunk - induced hyperlipidemia rats. Methods: Rats were received cholesterol in the oral daily during 8 consecutive weeks in order to hyperlipidemia rats. From 5th week, extract of Ganoderma lucidum (GL) at the doses of 2g/kg, 4g/kg administered orally was investigated in cholesterol drunk - induced hyperlipidemia rats. Results: GL significantly decreased plasma triglycerid, total cholesterol, LDL - C, but increased HDL - C. The effect of GL on plasma lipid level at the oral doses of 2g/kg, 4g/kg was equal to each other and to Lopid (gemfibrozil) at the dose of 140mg/kg. Conclusions: GL have a hypolipidemia effect on rats.

Vnukovo-32 (cell culture rabies virus vaccine strain) was propagated experimentally in primary hamster kidney cell (PHKC), primary Chick embryo fibroblast cell (CEF) and human diploid cell (WI-38). These 3 cell lines were infected with Vnukovo-32 by the same mount of infection (MOl) - lLD50/l000 cells. The result showed that the Vnukovo-32 was adapted on all experimental cell lines, met the criteria of master seed (the titer ranging 6.4-7.5 log LD50/ml), and reached the highest titer on the 7th - 9th day postinfection in three cell groups. Moreover, the highest titer of Vnukovo-32 was met in human diploid cell (WI-38), then in PHCK, and the lowest was in CEF. From these results, it is suitable to use WI-38 to propagate Vnukovo-32 for master and working seed. The procedure for propagation of Vnukovo-32 is set up.

Myelodysplasia syndrome is a diseases group of which quite difficult cure and prediction. There are many treatment methods however it depends on patient’s age, level of diease, rate of blast in bone marrow. The treatment includes: chemical treatment, trasplant originative cell, support treatment. Other method is combination of various treatment methods: Use Ara-C combine with depersolon, chemical treatment combine with stimulative agent of blood and trasplant originative cell

Study on the status of worm infections and the effectiveness of deworming campains and health education based on community in 570 children from 2 to 5 years and 570 women of reproductive age in Quang Xuong district, Thanh Hoa province from July 2000 to December 2002. The results showed that: among children: the rate of ascariasis and trichuriasis infection were highly prevalent. Worm infection intensity of these species was light – moderate. The relationship between worm infection and malnutrition among children was not found at the baseline survey. The prevalence of hookworm among women reproductive age decreased clearly after the first round of treatment with albendazole 400mg, but no other parasites decreased significantly in both mother and children. There were no influences of interventions to improve anaemia status in both chidren and women reproductive age
