1.Assessing the variation of price of domestic produced medicines in the past recent years
Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2004;0(9):21-25
The retail price of some domestic produced medicines had the tendency to increase in line with the increase rate of consumption commodities from 2001 to April 2004. Some kinds of medicines had surveyed as follow: antibiotics; vitamines; reliever; antifebrile; anti- inflamatory; digestion drug, and other medicines. The variation of price of those medicines at that time compared with the rate of consumption commodities, the variation of rate of USA and EURO. The price of consumption commodities increased rate of 3.61% in 2002 compared with 2001. the price increased rate of 3.03% compared with 2003 and during 3 months of 2004 the price of consumption commodities increased 5.40% compared with 2003

2.Pulmonary ventilation in infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis
Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2004;0(9):25-27
In this clinical trial, 60 patients who suffered from AFB positive infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis and being cured in consolidative chemotherapy in specialized hospitals, the age from 20 to 59 years old, not sexes distinguish. Kinds of ventilation: 93.33% of patients suffered from restrictive ventilation and the rate of mix ventilation was 6.67%, no participant was obstructive ventilation. Mean values of VC was 53.93%5.97; of Tiffeneau index 80.756.63%

3.Artificial magnetic field in treatment of cerebro-vascular insufficiency
Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2004;0(9):27-30
51 patients with cerebro-vascular insufficiency were treated at 108 Military Hospital from June to December 2002. These patients were divided into 2 groups: 43 patients in group 1 were treated by alternating magnetic field; 8 patients in group 2 were treated by placebo. Alternating magnetic field with 45mT intensity had improved the symptoms of cerebro-vascular insufficiency such as: the relief of headache, vertigo, decrease in psychological and neuro-vegetative disorder, the decrease of stress making the sleep better and improving intellectuality. Results: 95.35% of patients in group 1 had more relief; 4.65% little relief, the moderate days of treatment were 14.484.79. A negative getting in the placebo group had demonstrated an objectiveness of the results. The intensity of magnetic field using in this study was suitable and almost without side effect during treatment

4.The value of ultrasound in diagnosis of ovarian cancer
Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2004;0(9):30-33
100 patients with ovarian cancer which were indicated of surgery at Tu Du Hospital from the year 2002 to 2004. The ultrasound scan results were compared with the anatonic pathology showed that ultrasound scan was a useful method in diagnosis and screening test for ovarian cancer. Especially the sensitivity and specificity of Doppler ultrasound were approximately 80%. Doppler ultrasound was the best method for diagnosis combination with the results of CA 125 in predicting the healthy and acute level of ovarian cancer

5.Preliminary results od 131 cases with endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy in treatment of palmar hyperhidrosis
Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2004;0(9):33-38
From 14 June 2002 to 30 June 2004, at the surgery department of the Hospital of Endocrinology had performed the endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy on 131 patients (61 males, 70 females), in ranging of age from 11 year old to 50. Thoracoscopic sympathectomy can performed easily and effectivelly in semi-Fowler posittion, turning the opposite with a single-lumen endotracheal tube. The rate of dry hand was 98.8% of patient. There was no death, there was no patient with hematothorax. There were 2 cases with complication of one side pneumothorax by adhesion but having good results after one day of drainaging closed pleuroperitoneal. After operation 40 patients were re-examined had pneumothorax in chest and back

6.To assess preliminarily the results of treatment retraction pocked
Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2004;0(9):38-39
32 patients with retraction pocked in different stages. Patients had clinical examination, otolaryn endoscopy and having tests such as: hearing measure, impedance audiometry and X ray. The main aim of treatment was to recover the ventilation of recessus epitympanicus but there was not any complete surgery method, each stage required the different techniques. Using surgery method on ventilation tube combined with a cartilage placed in the tympanic cavity in order to against the adhesion of otopiesis had effectiveness higher than simple technique

7.Dementia in the elderly
Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2004;10():2-5
Dementia is a syndrome of failure of knowledge function, together with changing of behavior and loss of social function. Dementia is common in the elderly. The prevalence of this disease increase clearly by age. Dementia may appear suddenly, but gradually develop, chronically as in Alzheimer. The aim of treatment for patients with dementia is to enhance the quality of life and maintain maximum functional activities through improving the knowledge, the emotion and the attitude

8.Kidney donor exchange - an efficacious solution to the lack of transplant organs
Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2004;10():5-7
Currently world wide, the majority of kidney transplantations is realized with living donor, not using cadaver. In the past, in majority of cases, the donor and the recipient are familiar relatives, assuring immune compatibility. But at present basing on the new advances in antirejection measures, this technique can be applied in any pairs without blood relations. The detection of these pairs is very difficult but could be realized completely. The cases of exchange between uncomfortable pairs could give satisfied results

9.Etiology of cancer
Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2004;10():8-12
Cancer comprises of 200 separated diseases with some common characteristics: Unregular and unlimited proliferation of cells, it invades through the natural frontiers and spreads far on the whole of the body, leading to the death. International Anticancer Association defines the tumor as some neoplastic tissues growing excessively over the normal need and the range of control of the body. The progress of cancer is a multicause pathology, it developes in long duration, having 3 basic phases: onset, progress and advance. In advanced phase the disease trends to spread largely, destrying the host leading to the death

10.New advances in molecular biology of prostate cancer
Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2004;10():12-15
Prostate cancer is the most common detected cancer and the second cause of mortality in male patient aged > 45 in many countries in the world. New advances in molecular biology and genetics in association with great achievements in biological technology permit identily the creation and the process of prostate cancer in various profiles. The role of inflammation in the onset of prostate cancer is opened slightly. Research permits to predict new markers and to make promises for new treatments efficacy progressively against this dangerous disease of increasing concern
