Background: Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection remains a major global health concern. Approximately 55–85% of individuals with acute HCV infection progress to chronic disease, which is often asymptomatic. Therefore, early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent long-term complications. This provided the rationale for our study to evaluate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment outcomes of chronic HCV patients using direct-acting antivirals (DAAs), with comparisons by viral genotype. Aim: To compare the clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment outcomes of chronic hepatitis C according to viral genotypes. Materials and Methods: A total of 1203 chronic HCV patients attending the outpatient department of Arkhangai Provincial General Hospital were included in this prospective and retrospective cohort study. HCV genotyping was performed, and patients received DAA therapy. Clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, HCV RNA levels, and fibrosis scores (APRI and FIB-4) were assessed at baseline, at week 4 of treatment, and at 12 weeks post-treatment. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS version 26.0. Results: : Among all patients, 6.7% had liver cirrhosis, and 1.4% had previously received interferon-based therapy. Patients with cirrhosis more frequently reported fatigue, abdominal discomfort, insomnia, right upper quadrant pain and loss of appetite (p<0.001). Virologic response at week 4 was 98.9%, and sustained virologic response at 12 weeks post-treatment was 99.3%. The mean APRI score decreased from 0.71±0.67 to 0.31±0.54, and FIB-4 from 1.61±0.41 to 1.16±0.26 (p<0.001). The most common adverse events were fatigue, headache, and nausea. Conclusion Treatment outcomes were 99.5% in patients with genotype 1b, 100% in genotype 1a, and 75% in genotype 2, with statistically significant differences (p<0.001). Both APRI and FIB-4 scores significantly decreased after treatment, confirming the effectiveness of DAA therapy in improving liver fibrosis (p<0.001).

BACKGROUND OF STUDY: According to WHO report estimation, 76.3 million people have been diagnosed with disorder related to alcohol use which has been root cause for over 60 types of disease in the world.1 Smoking causes death to4 million people every year, 11 people every day and 6 every minute. This number is estimated to double reaching 10 million by 2030.2 The study conducted by the ‘World Vision Mongolia’ international organization and the Anti-alcoholism and Drug Association of the Ministry of Justice show 76% of all teenagers has drunk alcohol to some extent. AIMS: To determine alcohol, tobacco and psychoactive drug use by school teenagers of Sukhbaatar district in Ulaanbaatar MATERIAL AND METHODOLOGY: The survey on inquiry of alcohol, tobacco and psychoactive drug use (ASSIST) was conducted among a total of randomly selected 800 (374 boys, 426 girls) students of 8-12th grade from 7 secondary schools of Sukhbaatar district. Statistical data was put into Microsoft office applications (excel, word) and processed by SPSS application with 95% of probability of information and 5.0% of trust level. RESULT OF STUDY: Out of all respondents 32% (256) use tobacco, 43.8% (350)alcoholic drinks, 2.6% (21)cannabis,1.1% (9) cocaine, 1.5% (12) amphetamine, 3%(24)volatile substance, 4.3% (34)sedative and tranquilizer drug, 0.6% (5)hallucinogenic drug, 0.5% (4) opioid, and 0.1% (1) uses other types of drug. Among the survey participants, there are a total of 214 teenagers (in duplicated number) who need short-term action and 2 teenagers who are smoker and need intensive treatment. CONCLUSION: Among total teenagers, the survey participants, 1 in 3 used tobacco, 1 in 2 alcoholic drinks and 1 in 7 used psychoactive drug. Male students smoke twice more than female students and there is no difference in use of alcoholic drink in both sexes. The alcohol and tobacco use among teenagers at the age of 12-18 who participated in the survey showed that they use more when they grow older. 1 in 4 students of all participants belongs to a group with average risk and needs intensive treatment.

Introduction: In 1814 Irish surgeon Abraham Coll first introduced distal radial bone fracture in clinical practice as a colles fracture. It is one of the most common fractures account for 10-20% of the total respectively fracture. Case of Colles fracture has being increased in the developed country year by year besides the increasing number of elderly patients. Depending on severity displaced of the fracture, management includes closed reduction or surgical procedure. The aim of study was to study result of risk factors that influence the closed reduction management of the Colles fracture. Materials and Methods: From hospital based population 80 patients aged between 5-76 years (mean age 47.31 years, male 61.25%, female 38.7%) were recruited by cross sectional and randomized method. Participants were divided into displaced and non-displaced groups which confirmed by refractive index difference on X-ray. Results: The risk factors that influence the colles fracture closed reduction management was osteoporosis (p=0.38), menopause (r=0.18, p=0.27), calcium supplement intake (r=0.21, p=0.05), received hospital care in 24 hour (p=0.39), apply plaster (p=0.64), hand sling immobilizer brace (p=0.5) and physical therapy (p=0.5). Conclusion: Osteoporosis and menopause were the risk factors that influenced the closed reduction management of Colles fracture. The patient cases that not receiving emergency medical care in first 24 hours, not applying plaster, not using the hand sling immobilizer brace and not receiving physical therapy was risk factors for extending the closed reduction management of the Colles fracture.

Kidney transplantation is the best alternative treatment for end-stage renal disease and health-related quality of life and survival of the patients are improved compared with dialysis. Worldwide, more than 1.4 million patients with CKD receive renal replacement therapy with incidence growing by approximately 8% annually.1 Unfortunately, despite significant improvement in graft function, kidney transplants can still fail due to acute rejection and chronic allograft nephropathy.2 Kidney biopsy after transplantation, which has evaluated by Banff 09 classification is usefull method for diagnose of transplanted kidney disease.3,4Kidney graft rejection was diagnosed in 10 renal allograft biopsy specimens (bs) obtained from transplant patients followed up at our institute between 2015 and 2016. All specimens were evaluated as satisfactory which show more than 8 glomerulus under the light microscopy. Each renal cortical tissue was divided into two tips: one piece for routine H&E stain and special stains, including Masson’s trichrome, and PAS stain; another piece for immunofluorescence by frozen section, which were stained with IgA, IgM, IgG and complement component (C3, C4, C1q, C4d). All the renal biopsies were examined by the same pathologist.Out of 117 transplantations, 10 episodes of rejection selected. Among the 10 patients, 30% had an acute T cell rejection and 70% had a chronic allograft nephropathy. Interstitial inflammation (i1-7) was present in 7 bs (70%), tubulitis (t1-4,t2-2) in 6 bs (60%), transplant glomerulitis (g1-1, g2-2, g3-1) in 4 bs (40%), transplant interstitial fibrosis (ci1-2, ci2-2, ci3-2) in 6 bs (60%), tubular atrophy (ct1-6, ct2-2, ct3-1) in 9 bs (90%), mesangial matrix increase (mm1-5) in 5 bs (50%), vascular fibrosis intimal thickeness (cv1-3) in 3 bs (30%), arteriolar hyaline thickening (ah1-5) in 5 bs (50%), tubulitis (ti1-6, ti2-3, ti3-1) in 10 bs (100%) and peritubular capillaritis (ptc1-1, ptc2-2, ptc3-1) in 4 bs (40%). C4d deposition was present very mild in wall of the vessels and peritubular capillaries. Because of not good working Methenamin silver stain, we couldn’t demostrate glomerular basement membrane changes (cg) fully.We suggest that histopathological changes of transplant glomerulopathy might be accompanied by inflammation of the microvasculature, such as transplant glomerulitis and peritubular capillaritis. C4d deposition in the wall of the vessels and peritubular capillaritis is not always present in biopsy specimens of transplant glomerulopathy.

Background:We determined lipid parameters which are the leading causes of developing cardiovascular diseases and atherosclerosis and investigated the increased serum triglyceride level which is referred to as atherogen triad , decreased high-density lipoprotein and increased low- density lipoprotein associating with age and sex.Method:237 people who were done lipid level parameter tests in the Central Hospital Laboratory were involved in the study. We identifed cholesterol, triglyceride, lowdensity lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein ( HDL) (COBASC-311,ROCHE,Germany) which are the lipid parameters using full automatic apparatus .Results:While serum cholesterol level increased in the ages between 40-60 and has a tendency to decrease in the further, HDL level was decreasing as the age grew. Serum LDL level has strong direct relevance to cholesterol (r=0.720, p<0.01) and weak relevance to triglyceride (r=0.189,p<0.01). As for the sex, high- density lipoprotein level decreased for men with statistical importance (p<0.05) and there was no signifcant difference in other parameters. LDL level increased for 81.8% , increased cholesterol for 51.1%, raised triglyceride for 27.9% comparing with the normal rate but HDL level was decreased for 32.2% of the participants in the study. These changes mostly occurred at the ages of 40-60. Atherogen triad occurred for 16.5% of the participants and 13(33.3%) of whom were male and 26(66.7%) female.Conclusion:LDL and cholesterol level raised more than the normal rate comparing with other lipid parameters particularly as for 40-60 aged people and atherogen triad which leads to develop atherosclerosis occurs in 16.5% of all adults in the study.

Now days, as the technology develops, improved levels of consumer demand for consumptionand they want the product easier to use. In this study, sustainable refers to both the technology andstandardization characteristics of gel medicine for a new Dentamon or Dentos gels were prepared using20% ethanol extract for mixture of Chamaenerion angustifolium L, Stellera chamajasme L and Oxytropispseudoglandulosa which are pharmacological active for gum tissues and a oral cavity inflammation.GoalThe aim of this work was to standardize of Dentamon elixir gel medicine and make technological studyof Dentamon.Materials and MethodsThe present study included plant species which were Chamaenerion angustifolium L, Stellerachamajasme L and Oxytropis pseudoglandulosa. Those three medicinal plants were collected fromdifferent regions of Mongolia and samples their upper part of ground. The plants were used for thepurpose of their phytochemical analysis and technological study of gel formulation. For the contentof flavonoids, total coumarin and tannin in the gel and extract of those plants were determined byspectrophotometric method. The direct measurement of the microbiological climacteric was determinedin extract by according to Mongolian National Pharmacopeia and the viscosity property of gel medicinewas identified using viscometer.ResultsThis study has revealed the presence of photochemical considered as active medicinal chemicalconstituents. Chemical tests of the screening and identification of main active components in the plantsunder study were carried out in the ethanol extract (20, 40, 70%) and aqueous extract using generalextraction method. The tannin content of the upper part in water and three different concentrated ethanolextract was found to be (2.16±0.04%, 1.73±0.04%, 2.58±0.04% and 1.74±0.02%), respectively. Thetannin content of upper part in 40% of ethanol extract of the plants was 7.40±0.21% and coumarin contentwas 3.01+0.09% and the total flavanoids content were 0.70+0.03%. There were not detected Esherichiacoli, Salmonella, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus in plant extracts. The gelmedicine was prepared from concentrated plant extract using dispersion method and and gel formingmaterial selection using 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2% of carbomer. The results from gel formulation assay,the 0.5% of the gel was turbid liquid state, and 1% of the gel was a colorless, clear liquid state, 1.5% gelwas colorless, created very clear and 2% gel was colorless but it was very dense. The pH condition ofthe 1% of Dentos gel was 7.6 and the viscosity property was 7400000 mPa/sec, the flavonoid contentwas 0.165%, the total coumarin content was 0.69 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcusaureus, Enterobacteriaceae did not detected. Dentos 1% gel was compared its pharmacological trialwith Hi Ora gel which is produced by Himalaya LLC. On the treatment 14 days, Dentos gel more reduced45.9% of wound area index than Hi Ora gel.ConclusionThe 40% ethanolic extracts of the studied plants contained many bioactive chemical constituentsincluding alkoloids, flavonoids, tannin and coumarin. The 1.5% of carbomer was most effectivefor make a new Dentos gel and also new generated gel was most effective against Pseudomonasaeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacteriaceae. The new generated gel was standardizedby its appearance, viscosity property and content of coumarin, alkaliod, flavonoids and microbiologicalpurity characteristics.

IntroductionThe metabolic syndrome is a cluster of the most dangerous heart attack risk factors: diabetes andprediabetes, abdominal obesity, high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Also it is known as acluster of changes associated with resistance to insulin.There is a convincing evidence of important ethnic differences in the prevalence of metabolic syndrome,its components and sequelae. Estimates vary by country, but generally they show higher prevalenceof metabolic syndrome in non-European groups. Based on these findings, we were convinced inthe importance of studying the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance among thepopulation of Mongolia.Materials and MethodsThe main goal of our study was the determination of insulin level and insulin resistance in metabolicsyndrome exposed and non-exposed groups. We included 194 randomly selected people aged 20-60 years old; among them 51 had metabolic syndrome which was identified by the criteria of theInternational Diabetes Federation. All participants underwent general medical examinations andsigned a written consent paper. Fasting blood glucose, triglyceride, HDL, insulin levels were measuredin fasting blood serum and insulin resistance was calculated as a HOMA-IR model.ResultsAverage age of participants was 44,26±8,66 years, of whom 46,4% (n=90) were male, 53,6%(n=104)were female. By IDF criteria, 26,2% (n=51) of the participants had metabolic syndrome. Insulin levelwas 17,23±14,91μIu/mL in MS exposed group which was much higher than in the control group.Insulin, HOMA-IR, had direct correlation with the body mass, BMI and waist circumference andinverse correlation between HDL.Conclusions26.2% of the study participants had metabolic syndrome which was defined by IDF criteria. Insulin levelin the MS exposed group was 17,23±14,91μIu/mL, higher than in the control group by 7,53±2,21μIU/mL. Insulin, HOMA-IR, showed a direct correlation with the body mass, BMI and waist circumferenceand inverse correlation between HDL.
