Introduction: Cataract and vitreous opacification caused by ocular injury results in significant visual loss. Objectives: to evaluate the initial outcome of patients with ocular blunt or penetrating trauma who underwent trans pars planar vitreo-lensectomy and posterior chamber intra ocular lens insertion. Comment on the indications and applications of surgical techniques. Subjects and method: In this prospective randomized study, a total of 30 patients (30 eyes) with blunt/penetrating ocular trauma were assessed using X-ray and ultrasound in the Trauma Department of National Institute of Ophthalmology, from December 2005 to August 2006. Results: 30 patients (28 men and 2 women) with an age range from 3 to 45 years. Penetrating injuries are more common than blunt ones. The cornea is the most common site of injury (73.3%). Conclusion: Intraocular lens were implanted at the time of trans pars planar vitreo-lensectomy can provide a reasonable restoration of visual acuity and binocular function.

Background: Suicide continues to be a leading cause of death worldwide. Recently, more than 45,000 children in the age group of 10 to 19 years died by suicide, making it the second leading cause of death in the age group of 15 to 19, surpassed only by traffic accidents, tuberculosis, and fighting. Objective: To determine the prevalence of suicidal ideation among adolescents whose parents are separated/divorced; and to explore the factors associated with suicidal ideation and describe adverse experiences among adolescents. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in 309 adolescents with separated/separated parents in Hue City. Data was collected through direct interviews using a structured questionnaire. Suicidal ideation was defined as the presence of thoughts or plans related to suicide within the last 12 months. Multivariate logistic regression was applied to identify factors associated with suicidal ideation in adolescents with separated/ separated parents. Results: The study found that 15.5% (95% CI:11.7 - 20.1) of adolescents with separated /separated parents reported experiencing suicidal thoughts, in which men accounted 8.4% (95% CI:5.6 – 11.2) and women accounted 7.1% (95% CI:4.5 - 10.6). Several factors were identified as increasing the risk of suicidal ideation, including alcohol use (OR = 3.24; 95% CI:1.42 - 7.42), hyperactivity/inattention (OR = 4.96; 95% CI:1.58 - 15.605), and a poor quality of family relationships (OR = 4.82; 95% CI:1.26 - 18.50). On the contrary, certain factors were found to reduce the risk, including being in the 14-15 age group of 14-15 (OR = 0.26; 95% CI:0.10 - 0.69) and participating in physical activity (OR = 0.44; 95% CI:0.21 – 0.94). Conclusions: The research highlights a significant percentage of adolescents with separated / divided parents who experience suicidal ideation. Therefore, it is imperative for families, schools, and society to develop comprehensive strategies to monitor and address various risky behaviours among students simultaneously.
