1.Review of 20 years of surgical treatment of deformity of foot cervix and club foot combining with orthopadic equipment and external fixation.
Journal of Vietnamese Medicine 1999;233(2):20-22
Center for the trauma and orthopady treated 200 cases of foot deformity in which 1,500 cases received operations. Most of them were congenital club foot (70%) followed by club food due to the polio fever(20%) due to the brain paralysis (5%) and due to arthrogrip ossis (5%). The orthopadic equipments were applied for 35 cases. The equipment was used within 5 weeks and continuously fixed by gypsum up to 3 months from the day of operation.

2.Introduction of urodynamic studies
Journal Ho Chi Minh Medical 2003;7(2):68-74
To survey the basic measurements of urodynamic as cystometry, uroflowmetry, electromyography, urethral profilometry. Currently, it may be to combine measurements each other or urodynamic with image diagnostic technique in order to have comprehensive consideration, more accurate on lower urinary tract function: To combine with cystometry, uroflowmetry and electromyography, detrusor pressure measurement, to combine with cystometry and observe reflection of light of cystoids under fluorescent screen, video-urodynamics

3.Varicocele - Updated knowledge on diagnosis and treatment
Journal Ho Chi Minh Medical 2003;7(4):195-200
Varicocele is a dilatation of plexus venosus in the spermatic cord. It rarely occurs before the age of puberty, but 15% of male teenager experienced varicocele (the rate is relatively high). This rate is higher when surveying data of male infertility (35% of primary infertility patients, and 75-81% of secondary infertility patients had experienced varicocele). Varicocele may affect both sides, but 90% of cases occurred in 1 side and among them 90% were in the left side. Microsurgery is a treatment with high rate of success

4.Ecstasy – is very dangerous
Pharmaceutical Journal 2003;326(6):32-32
Ecstasy has been registered in 1914 as an anti-tired medicament for military use. From the year 1980, Ecstasy becomes an excitant using in amusing with the name of “shaking drug”, “Rabid drug”.

Pharmaceutical Journal 2003;9():37-38
Antibiotic use must carefully and must exactly consider according to indication and combined exactly method and disease. To against antibiotic resistance, urgent methods is needed such as drugs used exactly disease, sufficient dose and enough time. For physicians, should careful if prescribe antibiotic, don't use new drug if older drug still effective, review antibiotic resistance to choose exactly, preservation obey exact standards, limited using antibiotic for cattle and poultry

6.Study on the hemodynamometry in 2 positions to predict the development of hypertensive disorder in pregnancy
Journal of Vietnamese Medicine 1999;232(1):31-36
Fifty three of normogravid - normotensive women who subsequently developed pregnancy - included hypertension demonstrated an increase in diastolic blood pressure at least 20 mmHg when turned from the lateral recumbent to the supine position, between twenty eight and thirty six weeks of gestation. Conversely 95.8% percent of women who did not demonstrate such a rise in diastolic blood pressure when turned to supine position did not become hypertensive during that pregnancy. The results demonstrated the high validity of this method as follow: the sensivity of predictive value: 65%. The specificity of predictive value: 93%, the positive predictive value: 53%, the negative predictive value: 96%.

8.Study on size of maxillary sinuses by multislice computed tomography
Journal of Practical Medicine 2005;0(12):81-83
The aim of this study is to describe some maxillary sinuses parameters of Vietnamese adults by multislice computed tomography from January 2005-June 2005 at the Post and Telecommunication No2 hospital. Results: jaw cavity have horizontal diameter of 3.177cm, pre- rear diameter 3.99cm, top-bottom diameter 3.9517cm… Besides the anatomical description characteristics, the initial results of this study are very important to endoscopic surgery via nasal sinus.

9.Determining enteroaggreative escherichia coli infection proportion in children manure in Ha Noi
Journal of Practical Medicine 2005;0(12):90-92
Diarrhea continues to be one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality among infants and children in developing countries. Escherichia coli are an emerging agent of pathogens causing diarrhea. Among 587 fecal samples from Vietnamese children under five years of age with diarrhea, the PCR technique identified 68 samples (11.6%) positive with EAEC and 18(7.2%) among the 249 age-matched controls showing the significant difference. In the diarrhea group, the significantly higher prevalence was seen in the children less than two years of age as compared to the older ones. There is a decreasing tend of EAEC infection during the age. When comparing the children at the age of less than 12 months, the prevalence of EAEC was significantly higher in the diarrhea group than in the control. More studies need to be carried out to verify the role of EAEC in causing diarrhea in children.

10.The change of peripheral white blood cell count and the transfusion of white blood cells for treating leucopenia in patients with burn sepsis
Journal of Practical Medicine 2003;425(5):63-66
101 patients with burn sepsis including 22 patients, having peripheral white blood cell count of < 3.109/l treated in the National Institute of Burn, had received 23 units of white blood cells in transfusion. Results showed a decrease of white blood cell count in 58.4% of burn sepsis patients, and an increase in 21.8%. The peripheral white blood cell count was related closely to the germ of sepsis, the state of infections shock and the mortality. The monitoring of white blood cell count has had good impact on early diagnosis and a prognostic significance. The transfusion of white blood cells increases the white blood cell count and promotes its restoration processes
