1.Primarily results of percutaneous laser disc decompression in Center for Biomedical Physics in Ho Chi Minh
Journal of Practical Medicine 2002;435(11):5-7
The disc herniation occurs in 1/3 population in the world but 3% of this population had clinical symptoms that need a treatment. 87 patients received the method of percutaneous laser disc decompression has show that the successful rate was 80%. There had no major complications. There was only case suffering from the small abscess at the back of spine

2.Percutaneous laser for lumbar disc decompression
Journal of Practical Medicine 2002;435(11):42-44
There are several advantages of percutaneous laser. Candidates for this technique are patients who have CT or MRI imaging findings showed that the spinal disc(s) were displaced but remained to be intact, with correlative pain symptoms and received conservative treatment for at least three months without success. The patients have only to suffered regional anesthesia, have not to hospitalize, free from scar, have not any spinal problem, time of immobilization and activity limitation was shorter

3.Preliminary results of assessment on overweight and obesity status among military officials in airforces 2002
Journal of Vietnamese Medicine 2003;288(9):17-24
Among military officials aged > 30 years in air force and air defence army, the rate of overweight and obesity are high relatively according to IDI and WPRO 2000 classification with a general overweight of 35.2%, of them pre-obesity 24.2%, 1st grade obesity 11%, 2nd grade 0.1%. According to WHO 1998, classification 11%, pre-obesity 10.9%, 1st grade obesity 0.21% and 2nd grade none; especially in fly-troop, the rate is very high 67.5% (according to IDI and WPRO 2000) and 20% (according to WHO 1998). Energy intake is 4645-5162 Kcalo/capita daily and P:L:G ratio is 16:22:62

4.Dental carries and oral hygiene knowledge and practice of 12-years-old pupils at some secondary schools in Hai Duong city
Journal of Practical Medicine 2005;510(4):27-29
Study on dental carries situation of 200 pupils at 6 secondary schools in Hai Duong city. Results: The rate of dental carries of 12 years old pupils was high (67%), in the 6th teeth was 63%. 80.5% of pupils had good knowledge of oral hygiene and 74.5% had good practice of oral hygiene. School based oral health program is strongly supported and collaborated by the leaders of schools. It is necessary to develop human resource for school based oral health program, and the teachers should be trained for co-operation and participation this program.

5.Isolation and structure determination of coumarine from extract of Eupatorium chinese L
Pharmaceutical Journal 2003;326(6):12-13
Eupatorium chinese L. is an indegenous plant using in the folk medicine of Vietnam. From the ethanol extract and petroleum – ether extract of aerial parts of this plant a coumarin was isolated. It’s structure was identified by MS, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and 13C-DEPT methods

6.Evaluating effect on treating hypertension in some patients with chronic renal failure, dialysis and treated in the 108 Hospital
Journal of Practical Medicine 2005;0(6):71-72
A study was conducted on 24 patients with advanced chronic renal failure treated at Central Military Hospital 108. Results: The majority of patients with advanced chronic renal failure and periodic dialysis had stable blood pressure in all 7 days follow-up (with 508 measurements). The rate of measurements had systole blood pressure in emergency level (≥ 180mmHg) was very low (4/504 = 0.75%). Less measurements (8.1%) had blood pressure ≥ 160 or ≤90mmHg. The effectiveness of blood pressure medications will be enhanced when using combined treatment and taking at reasonable time (at 6 am, 10 am, 4 pm, 9 pm).

7.The role of CRP on blood inflammation in the severe burned patients
Journal of Practical Medicine 2005;0(12):54-56
Investigating the role of CRP levels in the blood of major burned patients in predicting bacterium and treatment results. The plasma CRP levels of 54 patients (18 female, 36 males), average age (20.44 ± 2.17) with burns between 20 and 90 (47.27±2.21) TBSA (total body surface area), full thickness burns between 1 and 75 (15.58±2.3) TBSA were determined for 4-7 days (CRP1) and 10-14 days (CRP2) after thermal trauma by CRP test kit (Human Co-Germany). Result: CRP1 concentration of patients with sepsis were much higher than without sepsis (p<0.05). Decreased level of CRP was observed in patient who had good response to therapy. The mortality rate increased in case of high CRP levels. Results suggested that there was risk of infection in patients with high plasma CRP levels. CRP measurement appeared to be the most useful method to monitor patient’s response to therapy

8.Preliminary study on the changes of daytime blood pressure in some advanced chronic renal failure, dialysis patients with hypertension
Journal of Practical Medicine 2005;512(5):21-23
Study was carried out on 22 advanced chronic renal failure, regular dialysis inpatients with hypertension (21 males, 1 female, ages from 25 - 76) treated in Central Military Hospital No.108. All of patients were treated hypertension with combined regimen or one drug followed convention, periodic dialysis 2-3 times per week, 4 hours per 1 time. The study’s time was 7 days. The results: almost of chronic renal failure patients had stable blood pressure, less daytime fluctuation in all of 7 days (with 462 measurements). Very less measurements (8/462) had systole blood pressure in emergency level (≥180 mmHg), less measurements (25/462) had blood pressure, which was not achieved treatment aim due to systole blood pressure at grade 2 (≥160 mmHg). A good efficacy of treatment with hypertension medications achieved by combined treatment at 6 hours, 10 hours, 16 hours and 21 hours of taken times.

9.Study on some clinical features and treatment of thermal burn of mesoderina (grade III) and whole skin (grade IV) of upper extremity
Journal of Practical Medicine 1999;361(2):14-16
Study on 27 patients with thermal burn in upper extremities has shown that deep burn with severe edema changed hand into claw picture in the deep burn of whole hand (6,98%). The maximal edema occurs within 48 -72 hours after burn. The syndrome of hamper of extremities occurred in deep burn including perimeter of wrist. The deep injury in back of the hand (97,67%). Treatment of 3thgrade burn: clean the hand; everyday bandage distribution; self split of necrosis. Treatment of 4th grade burn: cut the necrosis as average linear method in day of 6,6+/- 1,3 of burn.

10.The affects of hot microclimate environment at work to pilots and technicians at some airports
Journal of Preventive Medicine 2002;12(1):72-74
A study on some pilots and technicians at some airports from the center to the South showed that: during the studying days of May - June /1996, the temperature burden of hot microclimate environment according to the Yaglow general index rose to 32%, the tension of the temperature regulatory mechanism of the body expressed the raising of body temperature, increasing the pulse and excretion of sweats. Suitability to the hot climate of pilots and technitians through training themselves maintained the temperature balance at standard level.
