1.Schonlein-henoch and duodenal mucosal lesion
Journal of Practical Medicine 2002;435(11):25-27
The gastrointestinal lession generally and the duodenal mucosal lession is the common symtom in the schonlein-henoch and helps the early diagnosis of the schonlein-henoch in case of the symptoms in the skin,, joint and kidney are not enough. The duodenal mucosal lession are most frequent than stoma-duodenal lession. The hamorrhagi crash helps elucidating the etiology of many cases of the acute or chronic gastrointestinal hemorrhage in patients with schonkin-henoch. The treatment of the duodenal mucosal lession including haemorrhage mainly are use of the systemic corticorsteroids.

Several factors presumed to facilitate the transmission of Taenia spp. were reported in Vietnam. We conducted a cross-sectional study taking questionnaires from 1,185 participants, and collecting 1,151 sera and 1,036 stool samples in northern Vietnam. Sera were examined for circulating antigens of Taenia solium cysticerci using ELISA, stools for Taenia eggs by Kato-Katz smear, and copro-antigens by ELISA. Ag-ELISA revealed 4.6% antigen positivity, indicating infection with viable cysticerci. Taenia eggs were detected in 1.5% of participants. Copro-antigens were found in 2.8% of participants. Eating raw meat and/or vegetables was significantly associated with the presence of copro-antigen (OR=8.6, 95% CI: 1.16-63.9, P=0.01). Considering the high taeniasis prevalence and the associated threat, public health attention should be given to treat the tapeworm carriers in the projected areas.
