In the cases of cerebrovasculary haemorrhage due to any malformation, the best way to do is combination of X-ray methods: tomography, MRI, arteriography. It is very helpful for identifying and removing the malformation bodies.

Background: Laparoscopicappendectomyisasafeandeffectiveprocedureforacute appendicitis. This surgeryhasashorterdurationofhospitalstayandatrendtowardless postoperative infectious complications. Objectives: To evaluate advantages and disadvantages of laparoscopic appendectomy with one navel trocar. Subjects and method: Subjects included 38 cases diagnosed acute appendicitis in Cho Ray hospital, from October 2006 to September 2007. The subjects treated by laparoscopic appendectomy with one navel trocar. Results: The subjects included were 14 males (36.8%) and 24 females (63.2%). The subjects\ufffd?average age was 28.82 years (ranged from 14-68 years). The average time of abdominal pain was 18.39 hours (ranged from 8 to 24 hours). The average operative time was 28.34 minutes (ranged from 15 to 65 minutes). The average time of hospital stay was 2.9 days (ranged 1 to 5 days). 36/38 patients (94.7%) had appendix\u2019s location in right iliac fossa. There were 68.4% of patients who reexamined at postoperation. Conclusions: Laparoscopic appendectomy with one navel trocar is a useful method for reducing hospital stay, complications and return to normal activity.

Objective To characterize viral co-infections among representative hospitalized measles cases during the 2014 Hanoi outbreak. Methods Throat swabs were collected from 54 pediatric patients with confirmed measles, and molecular diagnostics performed for 10 additional viral respiratory pathogens (Influenza A/H1N1pdm09; A/H3N2 and influenza B; Parainfluenza 1, 2, 3; Respiratory Synctial Virus, RSV; human Metapneumovirus, hMPV; Adenovirus and Picornavirus). Results Twenty-one cases (38.9%) showed evidence of infection with other respiratory viruses: 15 samples contained measles plus one additional virus, and 6 samples contained measles plus 2 additional viruses. Adenovirus was detected as a predominant cause of co-infections (13 cases; 24.1%), followed by RSV (6 cases; 11.1%), A/H1N1pdm09 (3 cases; 5.6%), PIV3 (3 cases; 3.7%), Rhinovirus (3 cases; 3.7%) and hMPV (1 case; 1.96%). Conclusions Viral co-infections identified from pediatric measles cases may have contributed to increased disease severity and high rate of fatal outcomes. Optimal treatment of measles cases may require control of multiple viral respiratory pathogens.

Objectives: The prevalence of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has increased, particularly among individuals who have recovered from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. Health literacy is considered a “social vaccine” that helps people respond effectively to the pandemic. We aimed to investigate the association between long COVID-19 and PTSD, and to examine the modifying role of health literacy in this association. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at 18 hospitals and health centers in Vietnamfrom December 2021 to October 2022. We recruited 4,463 individuals who had recovered from COVID-19 infection for at least 4 weeks. Participants provided information about their sociodemographics, clinical parameters, health-related behaviors, health literacy (usingthe 12-item short-form health literacy scale), long COVID-19 symptoms and PTSD (Impact Event Scale-Revised score of 33 or higher). Logistic regression models were used to examine associations and interactions. Results: Out of the study sample, 55.9% had long COVID-19 symptoms, and 49.6% had PTSD.Individuals with long COVID-19 symptoms had a higher likelihood of PTSD (odds ratio [OR], 1.86; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.63–2.12; p < 0.001). Higher health literacy was associated with a lower likelihood of PTSD (OR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.97–0.99; p = 0.001). Compared to those without long COVID-19 symptoms and the lowest health literacy score, those with long COVID-19 symptoms and a 1-point health literacy increment had a 3% lower likelihood of PTSD (OR, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.96–0.99; p = 0.001). Conclusion Health literacy was found to be a protective factor against PTSD and modified the negative impact of long COVID-19 symptoms on PTSD.
