Background: 23 percent of overall 660 graduates after 8 times graduation of Monos university is now employed by Monos Group. One third of the graduates is employed at affiliates and subsidiaries of Monos group and comments and opinions of those graduates will make a considerable contribution in future development of the university curriculum, syllabus and improvement of teaching methodology.Purpose of the study: To research satisfactory indexes of graduatesResearch tools and methods: This research was conducted by means of oral interview and written questionnaire among graduates of Monos university who are currently employed at subsidiaries of Monos group using Excel and Word programs. Questionnaire was filled online by the graduates using Outlook and Mass mail.Research result: The research covered 43 of 134 graduates (35%) of the Monos university employed at Monos group subsidiaries and average age of the participants was 20-45, professions of the participants varied from pharmacist, department heads, chiefs and teachers. Composition and other factors of the participants were able to represent the majority. According to the study, during the study at the university graduates gained sufficient knowledge both in practical and theoretical fields and team work skill (62,5), skill to work one one’s own (68,5%) were the main skills achieved by them. On the other hand, the fact that computer skills 66,6%, skill to work by one’s self /66,3%/, team working skills /63,3%/ werefully achieved at workplace may be affiliated with improvement of those skills after starting employment. Moreover, the graduates replied that they could not fully achieved computer skills during the time of study in the university but developed it later on at workplace and concluded that English language course /68,8%/ and Pharmacology course /50%/ could not provide them with sufficient knowledge required. Therefore, there is a necessity to add supplementary classes of pharmacology and improve teaching quality of English and Computer classes. 81% of the participants in the research are interested in taking post-graduation classes of pharmacology and 56.2% wishes to take pharmaceutical department structure and organization.Conclusion: According to the research result, graduates are 100% satisfied with the university they graduated and major they studied. 90 percent of the participants replied that they were able to achieve practical and theoretical knowledge at sufficient level during the time of study. However, 60 percent of the respondents considered that they were not ab;e to achieve English and computer knowledge at satisfactory level.References:1.

Introduction: In 1814 Irish surgeon
Abraham Coll first introduced distal radial
bone fracture in clinical practice as a colles
fracture. It is one of the most common
fractures account for 10-20% of the total
respectively fracture. Case of Colles fracture
has being increased in the developed country
year by year besides the increasing number
of elderly patients. Depending on severity
displaced of the fracture, management
includes closed reduction or surgical
procedure. The aim of study was to study
result of risk factors that influence the
closed reduction management of the Colles
fracture.
Materials and Methods: From hospital
based population 80 patients aged between
5-76 years (mean age 47.31 years, male
61.25%, female 38.7%) were recruited by
cross sectional and randomized method.
Participants were divided into displaced and
non-displaced groups which confirmed by
refractive index difference on X-ray.
Results: The risk factors that influence the
colles fracture closed reduction management
was osteoporosis (p=0.38), menopause
(r=0.18, p=0.27), calcium supplement intake
(r=0.21, p=0.05), received hospital care in
24 hour (p=0.39), apply plaster (p=0.64),
hand sling immobilizer brace (p=0.5) and
physical therapy (p=0.5).
Conclusion: Osteoporosis and menopause
were the risk factors that influenced the
closed reduction management of Colles
fracture. The patient cases that not receiving
emergency medical care in first 24 hours,
not applying plaster, not using the hand sling
immobilizer brace and not receiving physical
therapy was risk factors for extending the
closed reduction management of the Colles
fracture.

BACKGROUND OF STUDY: According to WHO report estimation, 76.3 million people have
been diagnosed with disorder related to alcohol use which has been root cause for
over 60 types of disease in the world.1 Smoking causes death to4 million people every
year, 11 people every day and 6 every minute. This number is estimated to double
reaching 10 million by 2030.2 The study conducted by the ‘World Vision Mongolia’ international
organization and the Anti-alcoholism and Drug Association of the Ministry of
Justice show 76% of all teenagers has drunk alcohol to some extent.
AIMS: To determine alcohol, tobacco and psychoactive drug use by school teenagers
of Sukhbaatar district in Ulaanbaatar
MATERIAL AND METHODOLOGY: The survey on inquiry of alcohol, tobacco and psychoactive
drug use (ASSIST) was conducted among a total of randomly selected 800 (374
boys, 426 girls) students of 8-12th grade from 7 secondary schools of Sukhbaatar district.
Statistical data was put into Microsoft office applications (excel, word) and processed
by SPSS application with 95% of probability of information and 5.0% of trust level.
RESULT OF STUDY: Out of all respondents 32% (256) use tobacco, 43.8% (350)alcoholic
drinks, 2.6% (21)cannabis,1.1% (9) cocaine, 1.5% (12) amphetamine, 3%(24)volatile
substance, 4.3% (34)sedative and tranquilizer drug, 0.6% (5)hallucinogenic drug, 0.5%

Kidney transplantation is the best alternative treatment for end-stage renal disease and health-related quality of life and survival of the patients are improved compared with dialysis. Worldwide, more than 1.4 million patients with CKD receive renal replacement therapy with incidence growing by approximately 8% annually.1 Unfortunately, despite significant improvement in graft function, kidney transplants can still fail due to acute rejection and chronic allograft nephropathy.2 Kidney biopsy after transplantation, which has evaluated by Banff 09 classification is usefull method for diagnose of transplanted kidney disease.3,4Kidney graft rejection was diagnosed in 10 renal allograft biopsy specimens (bs) obtained from transplant patients followed up at our institute between 2015 and 2016. All specimens were evaluated as satisfactory which show more than 8 glomerulus under the light microscopy. Each renal cortical tissue was divided into two tips: one piece for routine H&E stain and special stains, including Masson’s trichrome, and PAS stain; another piece for immunofluorescence by frozen section, which were stained with IgA, IgM, IgG and complement component (C3, C4, C1q, C4d). All the renal biopsies were examined by the same pathologist.Out of 117 transplantations, 10 episodes of rejection selected. Among the 10 patients, 30% had an acute T cell rejection and 70% had a chronic allograft nephropathy. Interstitial inflammation (i1-7) was present in 7 bs (70%), tubulitis (t1-4,t2-2) in 6 bs (60%), transplant glomerulitis (g1-1, g2-2, g3-1) in 4 bs (40%), transplant interstitial fibrosis (ci1-2, ci2-2, ci3-2) in 6 bs (60%), tubular atrophy (ct1-6, ct2-2, ct3-1) in 9 bs (90%), mesangial matrix increase (mm1-5) in 5 bs (50%), vascular fibrosis intimal thickeness (cv1-3) in 3 bs (30%), arteriolar hyaline thickening (ah1-5) in 5 bs (50%), tubulitis (ti1-6, ti2-3, ti3-1) in 10 bs (100%) and peritubular capillaritis (ptc1-1, ptc2-2, ptc3-1) in 4 bs (40%). C4d deposition was present very mild in wall of the vessels and peritubular capillaries. Because of not good working Methenamin silver stain, we couldn’t demostrate glomerular basement membrane changes (cg) fully.We suggest that histopathological changes of transplant glomerulopathy might be accompanied by inflammation of the microvasculature, such as transplant glomerulitis and peritubular capillaritis. C4d deposition in the wall of the vessels and peritubular capillaritis is not always present in biopsy specimens of transplant glomerulopathy.

BackgroundMonos Pharm LLC has been started production of Dentamon which is an elixir medicine for gumtissues and a oral cavity inflammation and consumer product has been under appreciated today since1998. Now days, as the technology develops, improved levels of consumer demand for consumptionand they want the product easier to use. In this study, sustainable refers to both the technology andstandardization characteristics of gel medicine for a new Dentamon or Dentos gels were prepared using20% ethanol extract for mixture of Chamaenerion angustifolium L, Stellera chamajasme L and Oxytropispseudoglandulosa which are pharmacological active for gum tissues and a oral cavity inflammation.GoalThe aim of this work was to standardize of Dentamon elixir gel medicine and make technological studyof Dentamon.Materials and MethodsThe present study included plant species which were Chamaenerion angustifolium L, Stellerachamajasme L and Oxytropis pseudoglandulosa. Those three medicinal plants were collected fromdifferent regions of Mongolia and samples their upper part of ground. The plants were used for thepurpose of their phytochemical analysis and technological study of gel formulation. For the contentof flavonoids, total coumarin and tannin in the gel and extract of those plants were determined byspectrophotometric method. The direct measurement of the microbiological climacteric was determinedin extract by according to Mongolian National Pharmacopeia and the viscosity property of gel medicinewas identified using viscometer.ResultsThis study has revealed the presence of photochemical considered as active medicinal chemicalconstituents. Chemical tests of the screening and identification of main active components in the plantsunder study were carried out in the ethanol extract (20, 40, 70%) and aqueous extract using generalextraction method. The tannin content of the upper part in water and three different concentrated ethanolextract was found to be (2.16±0.04%, 1.73±0.04%, 2.58±0.04% and 1.74±0.02%), respectively. Thetannin content of upper part in 40% of ethanol extract of the plants was 7.40±0.21% and coumarin contentwas 3.01+0.09% and the total flavanoids content were 0.70+0.03%. There were not detected Esherichiacoli, Salmonella, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus in plant extracts. The gelmedicine was prepared from concentrated plant extract using dispersion method and and gel formingmaterial selection using 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2% of carbomer. The results from gel formulation assay,the 0.5% of the gel was turbid liquid state, and 1% of the gel was a colorless, clear liquid state, 1.5% gelwas colorless, created very clear and 2% gel was colorless but it was very dense. The pH condition ofthe 1% of Dentos gel was 7.6 and the viscosity property was 7400000 mPa/sec, the flavonoid contentwas 0.165%, the total coumarin content was 0.69 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcusaureus, Enterobacteriaceae did not detected. Dentos 1% gel was compared its pharmacological trialwith Hi Ora gel which is produced by Himalaya LLC. On the treatment 14 days, Dentos gel more reduced45.9% of wound area index than Hi Ora gel.ConclusionThe 40% ethanolic extracts of the studied plants contained many bioactive chemical constituentsincluding alkoloids, flavonoids, tannin and coumarin. The 1.5% of carbomer was most effectivefor make a new Dentos gel and also new generated gel was most effective against Pseudomonasaeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacteriaceae. The new generated gel was standardizedby its appearance, viscosity property and content of coumarin, alkaliod, flavonoids and microbiologicalpurity characteristics.

BackgroundThe works done during the research include: conducting photochemical study on the surface of the piece of land on which the medicinal herbs chosen as samples for the research grow; extracting dry infusion from plants; identifying main substance and antibacterial activity of dry infusion; conducting pilot pharmacological experiment with mineral samples.GoalBased on the results of these experiments, we aimed at finding out wound healing functions of Chelidonium majus. L, Stellerae chamaejasme.L etc, widely used in both conventional and modern medicine as well as of such minerals as Sinder, Zeolite, Tormohon, Baragshun after selecting from them.Materials and MethodsAlkaloid, a biologically active substance found in surface of plant land and dry infusion, was determined by titration method, alkaloids such as protopine and berberine by high performance liquid chromatography, coumarin and flavonoid by spectrophotometric method, the amount of infusible substance by scale method. The methodologies of Gatsura.N and Avtandilov.G.G were adopted to make artificial wound on skin and to heal a wound respectively.ResultsAs the research result shows, the surface of the area where Stellerae chamaejasme.L grow, contains 0.33% ±0.004 total coumarin, 0.19 % ±0.002 flavonoid and 37.14 % ±0.61 infusible substance while that of Chelidonium majus.L contains 0.19% ±0.003 total alkaloid, 0.12 % ±0.004 flavonoid, 0.09 % ±0.002 coumarin and 36.27%±0.74 infusible substance. After the infusion was extracted from Stellerae chamaejasme.L and Chelidonium majus.L through method of percolation with mixer, there were 16% and 14.5% dry substance remained in the infusions respectively. These figures were reduced to 12.6% and 11.4% after freezing them in -500C for 72 hours in dry freezing. The fact that total coumarin contained in dry infusion of Stellerae chamaejasme.L is 2.95% and protopine and berberine in that of Chelidonium majus.L, is 28 мг,% and 3.7 мг,% respectively meets the requirements for medicinal plant extracts. It was found during the pharmacological experiment of preparing 25% oil ointment composed of minerals including Sinder, Tormohon, Zeolite, Baragshun that zeolite was the highest effective mineral in healing a wound by wound index. Therefore, we chose zeolite as an ingredient of the wound ointment. Oil ointments of 6 variations with 5% and 10% content were prepared from the dry infusion as well as minerals of the study plants, and pilot pharmacological experiment was conducted on an experimental mouse that had an artificial wound. The result of the experiment proved that oil ointments with 5% content of Stellerae chamaejasme.L, Chelidonium majus.L and zeolite were more effective in healing the wound than others.ConclusionBy photochemical analysis, the chosen plants proved to be meeting the requirements for medicinal plants. Pilot pharmacological experiment showed that zeolite was the one that accelerated a wound healing process more efficiently than others. Oil ointments with 5% content of dry infusion and 5% of zeolite were effective in healing a wound quickly.

Health Laboratory 2019;9(1):21-27
Background:
However kidney transplantation has being performed in Mongolia since
2006, because of pre-transplant sensitization, ABO incompatibility, hepatitis B and C virus
activation many patients are taken kidney transplantation in abroad. The transplantation
centers use own immunosuppressive regimens.
Objective:
Our aim was to assess the immunosuppressive regimens efficacy and toxicity
in kidney transplant Mongolian recipients.
Methods:
We analyzed data from 96 adult kidney transplant recipients who had taken
kidney transplantation in different transplant centers from August 2006 through January
2014. There were 3 kinds of regimens Group I Simulect induction with standard triple
/FK506/CyA+MMF/AZA+steroid/, Group II Campath-1H induction with CNI monotherapy
and Group III Campath-1H induction with standard triple /FK506/CyA+MMF/AZA+steroid/.
We retrospectively collected the post-transplant first two years serum creatinine. The study
was performed in 2014. The questionnaire was taken and blood samples collected for
determination of tacrolimus through level and for other laboratory tests. The primary end
point was the first two years serum creatinine, the secondary end points included rejection
episodes, blood through level of tacrolimus and some laboratory findings.
Results:
The post-transplant first two years serum creatinine levels were significantly
different in 3 groups. Group III showed similar results compared to Group I. There was not
enough data of biopsy proven acute rejection episodes however group II said more
rejections occurred. However participants said that rejection occurred in 15 (15.6%) biopsy
was done only 3 (3.1%) cases. Blood through level of tacrolimus was significantly different
in three groups. Some laboratory findings showed different between three groups.
Conclusions
A regimen of Campath-1H induction with CNI monotherapy (Group II) may
be advantageous for short-term renal function and cost effective but there were more
rejection complications and increased creatinine. The regimen of Campath-1H induction
11 with standard triple (Group III) may be advantageous for long-term renal function, allograft
survival, but there should consider about infection complications and polycythemia.
Simulect induction with standard triple could be best choice but transplantations were
performed in experienced centers. The study enrolled few cases and cases which were
performed at the beginning of transplant program so many things could influence on the
result. The study was compared beginner transplant center with experienced centers.
Longitudinal cohort study needed in the future.
