1.Study on effects of traditional processing methods on chemical composition and biological activity of Drynaria bonii Rhizome
Journal of Medicinal Materials - Hanoi 2005;10(5):158-164
Study on ‘Cot toai bo’ (Drynaria bonii Rhizome) product was processed from fresh stem and root of Drynaria bonii Christ., collected at Lang Son from July 2003 to September 2003. Results: chemical analysis showed that Cot toai bo contains flavonoids, steroid saponins, sterols, tannins, deoxidized sugar. Total flavonoid in stem and root accounted for 0.60±0.03% and total saponin was 3.71±0.06%. After processing by traditional method, total flavonoids and saponins in processed materials reduced in comparison with raw material. Compare 2 processing methods: in rice alcohol processed material, whose chemical constituents were reduced very little but in fried material, whose chemical constituents were reduced more than raw material. Rice alcohol processed Cot toai bo had analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects better than raw material and this processing was a more appropriate method than fried method

2.Inspection of hygiene and safe foods at Ha Nam province, 2001-2003
Journal of Preventive Medicine 2004;14(2):65-68
Implementation "the month for the quality of hygiene and safe foods" during 3 years from 2001 to 2003, Ha Nam province gained results at the same time realized some difficulties that should overcome and consolidate. Some evaluations on examined results in "the month for the food hygiene and safety " should contribute to the application of norms for better food safety, as well as contribute to planning, investment and allocation of resources that limit the food poisoning on the areas, protect people health in this province for the coming years

3.Evaluation of the value of blood gas in thoraco-abdominal postoperation in newborns admitted to rehabilitation Department of Children N0 II hospital
Journal of Practical Medicine 2005;515(7):17-21
A retrospective study of the value of blood gas in prognosis of early respiratory failure postoperation was performed on 50 newborns admitted to Children N0 II hospital, HCM city from 2000 to 2002. Examination of blood gas 24 hours before and after operation in 50 newborns. The results as followed: the lower PaCO2 and CRIB score were the good predictor for non respiratory failure in postoperating patients. This study suggested, tests of blood gas before and after operation should be done routinely to predict early respiratory failure for the newborns in NICU

4.Pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis in Pham Ngoc Thach Hospital: a case report
Ho Chi Minh city Medical Association 2003;8(2):104-106
This rare condition was diagnosed in the stage of a history of resection of left renal tumor of angiomyolipoma and recurrant pneumothrax with PCR of positive tuberculosis bacilla, special chest CT scan with thin wall cyst. These female patients are in reproductive age, using consistantly sex hormone. The prognosis is similar with COPD. Early detection and treatment of the case slowers the progression of disease.

5.Acute toxicity and some pharmacological effects of "c?t khí c?", a traditional pharmaceutical material
Journal of Practical Medicine 2003;425(5):35-37
The study was carried out with healthy white mice of the strain of Swiss, weighed 202 g, fed properly in good supply of water and food. Results a pain relief and narcotic effects of the material. An intensive dose 200 times higher than usual clinical dose did not manifest toxicity in the animal

6.The anti- inflammation and pain relief effects of " Cau tich" in experiment
Journal of Practical Medicine 2003;425(5):42-44
Cau tich fluid extract was studied on white mice. The dose of 4 g/kg of body weigh exerts against acute inflammation and relief the pain 2 hours, 4 hours, and 6 hours after the onset of inflammation. On the experimental granuloma, Cau tich has a moderate effect on chronical inflammation. In experimental model of “hot plate” Cau tich manifests a pain relief effect centrally and peripherally

7.Remark on epidemiology and clinical complication of wisdom teeth
Journal of Vietnamese Medicine 2005;0(2):32-35
A prospective study was conducted on 120 patients (65 males and 55 females) with displaced wisdom tooth at the Dentistry and Stomatology Department of Hospital 103 between 9/2003 and 10/2004. Results: There was no difference between male and female. The surgery for extracting displaced wisdom tooth caused complications depending on ages 25-34 (51.16%), 15-24 (37.5%), 35-45 (8,33%). Patients need examination and treatment for pain (55.85%), swelling (11.66%), choking on food (29.16%) and the other causes (33.3%). Two kinds of displaced wisdom tooth that have high rates were: Mesio–angular wisdom tooth: (54.16%), vertical wisdom tooth, jaw-bone clamp (22.5%)

8.Treatment for displaced tooth due to trauma by duracryl and steel thread
Journal of Vietnamese Medicine 2005;0(3):10-14
The study evaluates 2 methods use duracryl combining with steel-thread and steel thread alone in conservative treatment for 24 teeth displaced by trauma. Following up 1 week, 2 weeks and 1 month showed that duracryl combing with steel thread provided good outcomes in 83.33%; moderate in 16.66%; nobody had bad result. Steel thread alone provided good outcome in 50%; moderate in 25%; and poor in 25%. Using duracrul combining with steel thread is efficient in fixation of teeth displaced by trauma at facilities with simple equipment.

9.Study on anatomical basis of skin flaps based on the blood supply of the rectus abdominis muscle
Journal of Practical Medicine 2005;530(11):59-62
The investigation was performed in 20 cadavers (dissection in 17 formaldehyde preserved and dye injection in 3 fresh ones). The results of study showed that: average, each rectus abdominal muscle has 4.97 vessel with 0.5-0.6 mm in diameter arising from the anterior gone up through the sheath of abdominal muscle. Among them, 4.56 arising from the deep inferior epigastric artery (DIEA) and they concentrate mainly in the paraumbilical area (87.7%). The cutaneous blood supply (dye coloured area) of the DIEA was 19.5 x 14 cm in the supra and infra umbilical regions. The DIEA and the vein form a suitable pedicle for free tissue transfer. The design of different skin flaps patterns was proposed by results.
