Complete seizure control is the single most important determinant of good quality of life for patients with epilepsy and the chronic nature of the disorder requires that antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) be administered for many years, often for a lifetime. Therefore, long-term experience is of particular importance in evaluating the efficacy and safety of an AED. Valproic acid increases γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) synthesis and release and potentiates GABAergic transmission in specific brain regions and it also has also been found to reduce the release of the excitatory amino acid β-hydroxybutyric acid and to attenuate neuronal excitation mediated by activation of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) glutamate receptors. In addition to these effects, valproic acid exerts direct actions on excitable membranes, including blockade of voltage-dependent sodium channels. Valproate is generally regarded as a first-choice agent for most forms of idiopathic and symptomatic generalised epilepsies. Many of these syndromes are associated with multiple seizure types, including tonic-clonic, myoclonic and absence seizures, and prescription of a broad-spectrum drug such as valproate has clear advantages in this situation. The elimination half-life is in the order of 9 to 18 hours, but shorter values (5 to 12 hours) are observed in patients comedicated with enzymeinducing agents such as phenytoin, carbamazepine and barbiturates. The most commonly reported adverse effects of valproate include gastrointestinal disturbances, tremor and bodyweight gain. Other notable adverse effects include encephalopathy symptoms (at times associated with hyperammonaemia), platelet disorders, pancreatitis, liver toxicity and teratogenicity. According to the some study results, endocrine manifestations of reproductive system disorders, including polycystic ovary syndrome, may be more common in women treated with valproate than in those treated with other AEDs.

Introduction: Last Decades, Date by date
medical developments providing friendly,
high-efficiency treatment equipment and
services in developed countries are working
toward an advanced, as our country medical
services are trying to that country’s technology
has been introduced. In our country every
day there is only surgical care necessary to
endocrine gland disorders, including most
common thyroid surgery. It is open and
robotic assistant endoscopic surgery in the
world. But robotic assistant endoscopic
surgery is too expensive and impossible in
our country. Thus we chose Thunderbeat
for open thyroid surgery in especially huge
enlarged goiter and vascularized goiter to try
prevent bleeding, recurrent laryngeal nerve
palsy and post operation hematoma and
other complications
Thunderbeat is new generation instrument
combines an advanced bipolar clamp to the
existing ultrasonic cutter.
Materials and Methods: M 51-years-oldwoman
was admitted to Mongol Hyundae
hospital because of front of neck pain, multi
nodular goiter, tachycardia, sweaty and not
controlling emotion.
Anamnesis: She diagnosed to
Thyrotoxicosis in 2005 and she took
medicine last ten years but not controlling
that poisoning. Status locals: Huge enlarged
goiter in front of her neck
Treatment plan:
1. Preoperative Preparation
2. Operation: Open total thyroidectomy
3. Medicine
4. Wound dressing
5. Observation
We did operation after day of admission

BACKGROUND. UNIFACE 4.0 program has started implementing of UNIFACE 4.0 program for training since 2004 at MNUMS.
In 2008, registration and information of the six branch schools, MNUMS had been transformed into electronic forms. Since 2010, the electronic form and an integrated information environment has been reached all schools equally.
The business Plan of MNUMS is to become “Open School” under the strategic goal, and UNIMIS is being introduced and implementing by the Presidential ordinance A/55, on May 06, 2015.
OBJECTIVE. To analyze the implementation of the university management information system and determine future trends and approaches
RESULTS. In the survey, 7.89% of the subjects were the first group (teachers) responded that it was not appropriate to continue using UNIMIS for training, were below the average, 39.47% of the teachers responded that it was appropriate in some ways and 52.68% said that they would be better useful than average. 15.76% of the subjects were the second group (students) surveyed were moderately unsuitable, 43.15% responded that they were some appropriately, and 41.08% said that they were moderate or higher useful for them. To fulfill consistently the development of UNIMIS in the near future is required to enhance the training specific characteristics and the period, which is the foundation for further application of this program. Over 90% of the teachers who in the study answered that they only used the grades putting into the UNIMIS, the remaining percentages were asked for using students’ self-study and taking a survey. There are many modules in the UNIMIS program, but they are mostly used for students’ grades in it. For teachers, it may be due to a lack knowledge of about UNIMIS.The foundation for further application of this program is required to fulfill and develop UNIMIS permanently with the training specific characteristics and the period.
CONCLUSION. In UNIMIS, there are many issues; inadequate for registration and information (data), incomplete of system usage and applications, not well educated, unsuffiency and a lack of technical and technological safety.

Background: Natural protection against Mycobacterium tuberculosis is based on cell-mediated immunity, which most importantly involves CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell subsets. Therefore, the evaluation of CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell profi les are important to evaluate cell-mediated immunity. Immuno-regulating therapy is important in increase of T cell subsets. Objective: To determine some T-cell subsets in active pulmonary tuberculosis patients following immunoregulating treatment in intensive phase of antituberculosis treatment, so to evaluate the treatment effect. Method: This study was conducted in TB clinic of National Center for Communicable Diseases (NCCD) between Aug 2008 and Mar 2009. CD4+ and CD8+-T cells were evaluated in 50 active pulmonary tuberculosis (infi ltrative form) cases before antituberculosis treatment (25 cases with Salimon-Study group, 25 cases without SalimonControl group) Patients with chronic disease, pregnant and alcohol users are excluded. The T cell subsets count was performed by FACSCount fl ow cytometer at the Immunology Laboratory of the NCCD,Mongolia.The monoclonal antibodies to CD3, CD4 and CD8 (Becton Dickinson) were used for the analysis. Result: CD4 count was 605,1242,7 cells/microL, CD8 count-470,92235,7 cells/microL, CD3 count-1130,7425,6 cells/microL, CD4/CD8 ratio was-1,480,67. CD4, CD8, CD3 cells were signifi cantly lower (P=0.05) in active pulmonary TB patients than in healthy Mongolian. And these subsets were signifi cantly lower in older patients (>50 age).There was no statistical signifi cance in sex and other age groups (p>0, 05). There were statistical signifi cances such as CD4 count, CD4/CD8 ratio (CD4-733,95314,38 cells/micro, CD4/CD8 ratio-1.870,7 in treatment group, CD4-570,54213.07 cells/micro, CD4/CD8 ratio-1.260.45 in control group) between TB and control group at the end of intensive phase of antituberculosis treatment (=0,05, =0,001). However, there were not any signifi cance CD8 count and CD3 count between two groups (CD8-423,68174,28 cells/microL, CD3-1212,27453,98 cells/microL in treatment group, CD8-500,67203,74cells/microL, CD3 -1139,33 386,47 cells/ microL in control group) (=0,05). Conclusion: 1. T cell subsets were signifi cantly lower in active,new,smear positive, pulmonary TB patients than in healthy Mongolians (p=0.05). 2. The statistical signifi cance is observed in 50 years and older TB patients (p=0.05). 3. CD4, CD4/CD8 were signifi cantly higher in patients treated with immuno-regulating treatment than in patients of control group (=0,05, =0,001).

Background:
Treatment of adult tibiofibular fractures, especially severely comminuted
fractures, is technically challenging due to the lack of reduction markers and difficulty in restoring
the alignment. Fixation of the fibula can facilitate reduction of the tibia fracture and restoration
of the lower extremity alignment.
Methods:
Between 2018-2019 we have operated on 50 patients who have lie on the same
plane of tibiafibular fractures. Measures of angulation were obtained from radiographs taken
immediately after the surgery, a second time 3 months later, and at 3-month follow-up. The
analysis was performed with STATA.
Results:
Fixating fractures of tibia and fibula at same level were not shown to have complications
on the development of nonunion including fibular shortening, hindfoot alignment, slow process of
nonunion and unstableness.
Conclusions
We recommend fibular fixation in all 50 distal fractures when both fractures lie on
the same plane and the tibial fracture is relatively stabilized.
