1.Ultrasonic diagnosis of digestive tumor
Journal of Practical Medicine 2000;383(6):46-48
A retrospective study on 40 cases of digestive tumor diagnosed by combination of ultrasound, X-ray and laparoscopy in which the ultrasound and anapathology play a role as screen has shown that the sensitivity and accuracy of ultrasound in the detection of digestive tumors was 97.05% and 87.50%, respectively. However, it should combine the ultrasound with other imaging diagnosis to obtain the higher accuracy

2.Ultrasonic diagnosis and prognosis of abdominal aortic aneurysm
Journal of Practical Medicine 2002;435(11):50-7
Ultrasound (US) is a good screening modality to confirm or exclude aneurysm, especially abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) provides information for thoracic aneurysm except in the area of proximal (blind spot). In HCM, ultrasound and colour Doppler US in 10 years (1986-1987) are still the best screening modality of imaging diagnosis for detecting aortic aneurysm in preclinical stage, play a significant role in modifying the patient's prognosis.

4.The ultrasound image of amebic hepatic abscess during the internal treatment
Journal of Vietnamese Medicine 1999;232(1):101-104
55 cases of amoebic hepatic abscess diagnosed basing on the clinic, ultrasound B-mode and Doppler in 1998 in Hå ChÝ Minh medical center. The duration of disease was 6-10 days. Of which 10 cases were monitored continuously until the disease free. There was no specific image of amebic hepatic abscess on the ultrasound. Most of abscess focused in the right liver. The size of abscess was reduced gradually as duration of the treatment. The conclusion: the ultrasound helps the needle aspiration of the complicated diseases and monitors the response of the treatment.

5.Ultrasound image of the amoebic hepatic abscess during the internal treatment
Journal of Vietnamese Medicine 1999;232(1):148-149
The ultrasound images of the amoebic hepatic abscess during the internal treatment were studied to evaluate the disease's progress and the response to the available guideline of treatment. The ultrasound's features and the distribution of the abscess focuses in 55 patients with the amoebic hepatic abscess during the treatment (6 months - 10 years) were evaluated. The conclusion: the diagnosis should base on the ultrasound, clinical features and needle aspiration as the guidance of the ultrasound.

Ultrasound cross-sectional prospective investigation on 16 patients with Dengue fever, showed that 15/16 cases, gall bladder wall thickness was a factor of prognosis, standard for patients with high risk of volume dropping shock related to kidney syndrome, 12/16 cases with abdominal cavity fluid, 7/16 cases there was perirenal collection of fluid, 3/16 cases of fluid subcapsular collection in the liver, pleural effusion. In addition, there may be large pancreas and spontaneous rupture of the kidney.

7.Remarks on surfactant therapy in premature infants with respiratory distress syndrome at intensive care unit of Children Hospital No 2 from January 2007 to July 2007

Journal of Medical Research 2007;55(6):72-75
Background: Respiratory distress is one among the leading reasons cause mortality for infants especially for preterm babies or light weight babies. Surfactant therapy in premature infants can decrease mortality, duration of respiratory treatment, pulmonary air leaks and chronic lung disease. Objective: This study aims to assess the effect of surfactant therapy in premature infants with respiratory distress syndrome at Intensive Care Unit of Children Hospital N\xb0.2. Subjects and method:A cases study about premature infants less than 24 hours after birth with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) admitted to intensive care unit and treated with surfactant from January 2007 to July 2007 at the Children Hospital No 2. There were 30 cases recruited. The data was collected and analyzed by EpiInfo software 2002.Results: Most of them improved in respiration status after using surfactant (96.7%); no case of air leak was seen; 3 bronchopulmonary dysplasia cases and 4 deaths due to nosocomial infection were seen. Conclusion: Surfactant therapy was effective in premature infants with RDS. In the case of having economic advantages, surfactant may be indicated for preventive treatment on the premature and light weigh infants without respiratory distress syndrome on clinical aspect.

Background:A premature birth is one among four main reasons of mortality in the first infant stage in our country. Objectives:This study aims to determine the rate of premature, morbidity form in early neonatal period under 37 weeks as well as evaluate the efficacy of premature babies' care via the rate of morbidity of neonatal period under 37 weeksat Obstetric Department of Hospital of Hue Medical College. Subjects and method: A prospective, descriptive study was conducted on 2452 cases with gestation \ufffd?25 weeks from 2003 to 2006 at Obstetric Department of Hospital of Hue Medical College. They followed up the rate of morbidity, vitalness and mortality among premature babies \ufffd?37weeks which divided into 2 types:<33 weeks and from 33 to 37 weeks. Results: Prernatures <33 weeks was 1.4%; prernatures from 33-37 weeks was 5.2%; premature infant infection under 33 week was 57%; Mortality of newborn <33 weeks was 229\ufffd? prernatures from 33-37 weeks was 23,4\ufffd? Conclusion: Thanks to the care of newborn according to the combination of Obstetric- Pediatricfor immediate support in the consecutive services, continuous therapy and indication of using antibiotic for anti negative gram germs had reduced the mortality of premature babies at Obstetric department of Hospital of Hue Medical College.\r\n", u'\r\n', u'

Journal of Medical Research 2008;54(2):34-40
Background: Preeclampsia is a major cause of maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity, affecting 5 - 6% of all pregnancies. Recently, homocysteine (Hcy), a metabolite of amino acid methionine has been postulated producing oxidative stress, endothelial cell dysfunction, and alterations associated with preeclampsia. It is unclear whether high concentration of circulating Hcy causes preeclampsia, or whether this is a secondary phenomenon of metabolic alterations resulting from the disorder. Objectives: (1) Determining blood Hcy concentration in pregnancies in various severities of preeclampsia. (2) Discover the relationships between serum Hcy and other biological markers in preeclampsia. Subjects and method: This descriptive cross-sectional study consisted of 3 groups of pregnancies admitted to Thanh Nhan Hospital: 24 normal pregnant women, 28 pregnancies with non-serious preeclampsia, and 27 pregnancies with serious preeclampsia. Concentrations of blood Hcy of all participants were assayed by a competition fluorescence immunoassay (FPIA). Results: The mean concentration of serum Hcy during normal pregnancy was 5.2+/-1.0micromol/L compared with 7.1+/-1.8micromol/L among pregnancies with non-serious preeclampsia, and 11.7+/-2.9micromol/L among pregnancies with serious preeclampsia. Serum Hcy increased in pregnancies with renal dysfunction, elevated serum uric acid, and injuries of liver cells. Conclusion: Concentration of the serum Hcy in pregnancies with serious preeclampsia is significantly higher than that of pregnancies with non-serious preeclampsia, and the serum Hcy in pregnancies with non-serious preeclampsia is significantly higher than that of normal pregnancies. There are relationships between elevated serum Hcy in preeclampsia with level of kidney failure, injury of liver and increased levels of serum uric acid.

Journal of Medical Research 2007;47(1):19-23
Background: Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) may reduce the numbers of platelets and cause platelet function disorder. Postoperative bleeding is one of the most common complications in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Objectives: (1) To study changes platelet count and platelet aggregation with ADP in patients undergoing CPB. (2) To identify the relationship between the postoperative bleeding and these parameters. Subjects and method: Crossectional descriptive study on 35 patients of three groups: congenital heart diseases, valvular heart diseases and coronary artery disease. Results: Platelet count and platelet aggregation with ADP reduce. Conclusion: There is a considerably change in the number of platelets and disturbance of platelet function in patients undergoing CPB. No remarkable evidence on relationship between posttoperative bleeding and above disorders.
