Foundation: Not many research and study has been made on locating moxibustion pointsand its’ relating pain. That’s why there is asignificant need for this particular research. Purpose: We will compare the Mongolian scientists’ studyand research from “Mongolian Traditional Moxibustion Script” on head-point moxibustion with some of the classic studies from the Far East and define the distinctive features. The subject of study and method of research:We’ve studied and compared the “Mongolian Traditional Moxibustion Script” with “The Four Medical Tantras” “Blue Beryl”, “Lighting the darkness of the luminance of regulation”.We’ve used hermeneutics and comparisons in our study. Result:One of the main subjects of the study, head-point moxibustion in “MongolianTraditional Moxibustion Script” was also similar with the head-point moxibustion and treatment instructions of “The FourMedical Tantras”, “Blue Beryl” and “Lighting the darkness of the luminance of regulation”. We’ve encountered three moxibustion points that are in the same site with different treatment instructions.Also there were 9 points not mentioned in the above 3 scripts, but were included in the “Mongolian Traditional Moxibustion Script”. Summary:By studying the “Mongolian Traditional Moxibustion Script”, it was clear that moxibustion is generally effective on pains from predominant cool, rlungbadgan.Although the moxibustion points were similar on some other scripts, the divergent treatment instructions became the distinctive feature. Discussion: Moxibustion is generally used on pains from predominant cool, rlungbadgan. This type of pain originates from the “Mongolian subsistence” and the best cure for it is moxibustion. Therefore we need to explore and improve moxibustion with wise management and planning.

BACKGROUND. Congenital Cleft Lip and/or Palate (CL/P) is a common craniofacial birth defect and occurs 1 per 500-700 live births in average. Children with CL/P at a higher risk for speech/language problems due to the anatomical and structural differences in the oral and nasal cavities, Velopharyngeal Insufficiency causing speech disorders with articulation, phonation, and resonance, respectively. It leads to long-lasting adverse outcomes, influencing quality of life and causes obstacles in child’s socialization. Speech in 2007 Therapy team of School of Dentistry ( G. Ariuntuul , B. Bulgan, U. Azzaya, B. Batsukh, M. Bat-Erdene), Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences (MNUMS) (former Health Sciences University of Mongolia) established and successfully conducted a first clinical speech therapy sessions for children with clefts in Mongolia based on the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (G. Ayanga et al.) of National Maternal and Children’s Health Center (NMCHC). Since 2012 the speech therapy team of School of Dentistry, officially transferred the equipped operating speech room to NMCHC and speech pathologist B. Bulgan, supervised and trained by Ariuntuul G. recruited by NMCHC for a full time position and working as a member of multidisciplinary team till present. OBJECTIVES. To assess and analyze registry data of children with clefts, visited speech therapy sessions of speech pathology team of School of Dentistry, MNUMS during 2007 through 2012. MATERIAL AND METHODS. Registry based retrospective study was conducted to obtain demographic and speech disorder related data of children with clefts, visited speech therapy sessions between 2012-2017 at the NMCHC. RESULTS. In total 203 participants are attended the speech therapy sessions: 103 male (51%), 100 female (49%). Out of total 203 children 144 (71%) had Cleft Lip and Palate (CLP), 44 had cleft palate only (22%), 15 had cleft lip (7%), respectively. Average age for primary cleft surgery was 1y13m, where as for secondary was 4y22m. CONCLUSION. For speech therapy session for children with clefts boys were dominant compared to girls (1:1.03). By the types of clefts children diagnosed with Cleft Lip and Palate was prevalent to attend treatment classes. There is a need in early CL/P diagnosis, using birth screening and furthermore, traning of speech therapists/pathologists are important for development of multidisciplinary team, surgery outcome and improvement of quality of life of children with clefts.
