BACKGROUNDAccording to WHO statistics of 2013, daily 371,124[1] births, annually 135.5 million [1] births occur worldwide which tends to increase in the following years. In Mongolia, studies that evaluaterelationship between fluid intakes of pregnant women and preterm delivery risk have not been conducted so far to our knowledge. Thus, we aimed to determine this relationship by evaluating first and second trimester fluid intakesof pregnant women in Mongolia.METHODS35 and above years old pregnant women of 24-32 gestational weeks have been included in the study where body measurements and fluid intake were collected via questionnaireand examination.RESULTSWhen we studied the relationship between average fluid intake and preterm delivery risk, having inadequate fluid intake in the first trimester increased the risk of preterm delivery by 5.98 (CI95% 0.89-40.08, p<0.01) fold whereas having inadequate fluid intake in the second trimester increased the risk of preterm delivery by 4.03 (CI 95% 1.06-15.21, p<0.01) foldrespectively.CONCLUSIONSOur results show that low fluid intake in first and second gestational trimesters results in increased risk of preterm delivery significantly in Mongolia.
2.Identifying the pharmaceutical formulation of gynecological khii bureldsen disease in the Mongolian traditional medicine from previous reports
Mongolian Pharmacy and Pharmacology 2023;22(1):41-47
Introduction:
A gynecoloic qisu syndrome lasts for long time and shows signs of chronic khii bureldsen disease and causes a gynecological khii bureldsen disease at whole-body level. The disease often occurs in hospitals, and it is one of the main gynecological diseases in Mongolian traditional medicinal hospitals3. The problem of diagnosing and treating the disease with traditional medicine is the reason for the research.
Methods:
The documentary research method was used, and the main research materials were in Mongo- lian scripts of Ikh Yuteg Yondongombo, “Four Medical Tantras”2, Luvsanchoympil “Jeduininkhor” 4, Disren Sanjaajamtsin “Khukh Binderiya” 5, “Pharmaceutical Formulation of Mongolian Medicine” 13 As auxiliary materials, Mongolian scripts of the Mongolian editions of Jigmeddanzinjamts “Tun- gagajad” 3, Yondongjamts “Treatment Booklet of Tibetan Medicine” 6, Jambalchoynkhor “Four Keys of the Sea of Charms” 7, Jigmeddanzanjamts “Courageous Treatment Concepts” 10, and Ishbaljir “Four Springs” 11 were used.
At the meeting of the academic council of the Inner Mongolian National University, permission was obtained to conduct the research. Furthermore, since this research is documentary research, we have taken care not to violate the copyright by mentioning the name of the author of the book or work every time it is quoted.
Conclusion
Due to the improper food and drinks that increase khii /rlung/, gynecological khii bureldsen disease formation is caused by the longtime of untreated or incorrect treatment, and the disease develops slowly and chronically. As causes, conditions, pathophysiology, and differentiation between the causes of gynecological khii bureldsen diseases are similar in meaning, it shows that the ancient reports and works are related to each other.
In gynecological khii bureldsen disease, the selection of medicine with warm characteristics to suppress the rlung is based on the yin yang theory of Eastern philosophy which is the main method to suppress the cool characteristics of rlung.

Background:
Children with developmental disabilities benefit from
support in motor skills, sensory processing, cognitive development, and
social skills. Mongolia has trained occupational therapists for a decade,
with 37% specializing in pediatrics, but long-term therapy facilities remain
limited.
Aim:
This study provides a case report on a child with
developmental disabilities who received occupational therapy to evaluate
improvements in sensory processing, social communication, and
daily living skills.
Materials and Methods:
The study participants were
purposively selected from children undergoing occupational therapy at
the “Enerel” Child Development Center. Participant A is a 16-year-old
male with hearing and speech impairments, as well as an intellectual
disability. The initial assessment showed poor sensory processing and
behavioral problems and communication difficulties. A tailored program
incorporating sensory-based therapies, communication cards, and sign
language was developed with caregiver collaboration. Occupational
therapy was conducted five times weekly for 11 weeks. Pre and post
test assessments included goal attainment scaling (GAS) and Sensory
profile 2 (Child).
Results:
The participant showed improved communication
using cards and sign language, better emotional regulation,
enhanced sensory processing, and reduced hyperactivity to external
stimuli. Goal Achievement (GAS) +2, meaning the goal was achieved
better than expected and positive changes were found on the Sensory
profile 2, with large effect sizes.
Conclusion
The study found that sensory-
based occupational therapy and sign language training improved
occupational performance and goal achievement in children with sensory,
behavioral, and communication difficulties.

Mongolian Medical Sciences 2019;190(4):3-7
Background:
We aimed to study the etiology and transmission route of diseases introducing the modern, rapid and
high-sensitivity molecular genetic diagnostic methods for salmonellosis.
Material and Method:
In the study, we collected 680 stool samples and defined organisms of food intoxication by identification
of bacteria, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and determined serotype and antibiotic resistance.
Result:
Salmonella spp was detected from the stool of 25 (42.3%) patients out of 59 outpatient clinic and
of 170 (27.4%) patients out of 621 inpatient clinic with diagnosis of food intoxication. In total there
was detected 195 salmonella spp, and out of this isolated Sal. typhimurum in 193 (98.9%), and Sal.
enteritidis was in 2 (1.1%) patients, respectively. We defined Sal. typhimurum in selected 32 cultures
and did not detect resistant gene DT-104 ACS-SuT by PCR.
Conclusion
As resulted in the survey, we defined 195 (28,6) Salmonella typhimurum among the 680 patients who
were suffered from food intoxication, and revealed fast foods, animal derived foods such as chicken,
fish caused the food intoxication. Sal. typhimurium not resistance to antibiotics.
