  • It has recently become obvious that the prevalence of obesity has been rapidly increasing in Vietnam, as well as other countries, over the past two decades. There has been a current trend for researchers to discover new natural ingredients which are safe and effective in the treatment of obesity. RABELLA powder was a herbal-derived product which contained Amorphophalus konjac (K. Koch starch).

  • GeneXpert là một trong những kỹ thuật sinh học phân tử hàng đầu được Tổ chức Y tế thế giới (TCYTTG) khuyến cáo sử dụng trong chẩn đoán bệnh lao hiện nay. Nghiên cứu của chúng tôi được tiến hành nhằm đánh giá vai trò của xét nghiệm GeneXpert đờm trong chẩn đoán lao phổi, đặc biệt ở những đối tượng xét nghiệm AFB trong đờm âm tính. Nghiên cứu cắt ngang mô tả được thực hiện trên 1069 trường hợp có triệu chứng hoặc hình ảnh X quang lồng ngực nghi ngờ lao phổi. Nam giới và nữ giới chiếm tỷ lệ tương đương trong nghiên cứu. Các triệu chứng lâm sàng thường gặp bao gồm: ho (81,7%), đau ngực (21,5%), khó thở (20,5%), mệt mỏi (11,9%), sốt (11%). Hình ảnh X-quang lồng ngực nghi ngờ nhiễm lao chiếm 88,6%. Xét nghiệm tìm AFB trực tiếp trong đờm dương tính chiếm 3% tổng số bệnh nhân....

  • The purpose of this research was to evaluate the acute and subchronic toxicities of An Phu Khang capsules through oral administration in experimental animals. The acute toxicity was determined by the method of Litchfield Wilcoxon in Swiss mice. The subchronic toxicity was evaluated by the recommendation of WHO in Wistar rats at these doses of 0.54 g/kg b.w/day (equal to recommended human dose) and 1.62 g/kg b.w/day (3 times as high as recommended human dose) in 4 consecutive weeks. As a result

  • A double-blind, randomized, phase II clinical trial was conducted within a 14-week follow-up including 2 weeks of the non-drug run-in period, 8 weeks of medication, and 4 weeks of follow-up after discontinuation. The objective of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Trang Phuc Linh Plus in irritable diarrhea syndrome patients. Group I took Trang Phuc Linh Plus 3 tablets/time x 2 times/day for 8 weeks; Group II took placebo 3 tablets/ time x 2 times/day for 8 weeks. Patients will be re-examined, tested, and evaluated over the phone for symptom recurrence and adverse events (AEs). This study showed that the Trang Phuc Linh Plus tablets tended to improve symptoms in patients suffering from irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea, suggesting its safety and tole...

  • A 45-year-old male presented with symptoms mimicking pericarditis, including rapidly worsening dyspnea and retrosternal chest pain. On imaging workup, an abnormal mass of 50x53 mm in size was detected at the left atrium, which partially obstructed blood flow through the mitral valve. PET/CT was done in searching for the probable site of origin but revealed no abnormal uptake lesions. The tumorectomy and excision of the posterior wall of the left atrium were then performed with curative intent. The postoperative histology of the tumor was in favor of a spindle cell sarcoma, originating from the left atrium, grade 2, which was confirmed as epithelioid angiosarcoma by immunohistochemistry. The patient denied adjuvant radiation, thus we treated him with six cycles of Pacli...

  • This study was performed to investigate the effects of An Tri Khang (ATK) hard capsule on scopolamine induced memory impairment in experimental animals. The effects on memory of oral administration ATK were evaluated on scopolamine-induced memory impairment in experimental animals. The memory improvement effects were conducted on 2 experimental models: the Morris water maze (MWM) and the Multi-T maze (MTM). In the MWM model, ATK significantly reduced the time spent and pathlength to platform, increased the percentage of time swimming in platform’s quadrant. Swiss mice performed the MTM with shorter in both the time spent and the pathlength to the goal box (p < 0.01). Both doses of ATK attenuated scopolamine-mediated impairment of memory. ATK has potential effects on memo...

  • Congenital penile curvature (CPC) is a rare condition in men but has considerable impact on male sexual activity as well as their mental health. Many techniques had been proposed to manage this condition, however the corporal rotation technique had the advantage of preserving the penile length. Therefore, we conducted a study on 16 men with CPC who were treated with corporal rotation surgery to evaluate the outcome of this technique. The results showed that the mean degree of curvature was 51 ± 12.2 degree. The majority of patients had a moderate penile curvature (< 60 degree) and ventral curvature (75%). After the surgery, the residual curvature decreased significantly (from 51 ± 12.2 degree to 16.6 ± 6.34 degree with p < 0.001). We observed no remarkable changes in a...

  • Primary breast diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a rare non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma with limited data. We here report a case of primary breast diffuse large B-cell lymphoma mimicking breast cancer. A 52-year old woman had a painless mass in her right breast. Fine needle aspiration cytology and core biopsy were performed which suggested malignant features but could not confirm the specific subtype. Excisional biopsy then was conducted revealing non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which was subsequently confirmed with histopathology and diagnosed as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). A chest computed tomography scan revealed a 3.5cm sized breast mass with skin thickening and modest lymphadenopathy in the ipsilateral axilla. The patient received six courses of R-CHOP (cyclophospham...

  • Sphincter-preserving surgery for low rectal cancer improved the quality of life while maintaining the oncologic outcomes. A retrospective, descriptive study was conducted with 45 patients who underwent sphincter-preserving surgery for low rectal cancer at the National Cancer Hospital and Hanoi Medical University Hospital between January 2016 and April 2020. The mean age was 55.6 years old. Male: female ratio = 0.7:1. Nearly all patients presented with hematochezia (95.6%). 75.6% of the tumors are located within 4-6 cm from the anal verge. The anastomotic leak rate was 4.4%. All patients had a normal postoperative urinary function. The sexual dysfunction rate was low (15.8%) and reversible. None had erectile or ejaculation dysfunction. 97.8% satisfied with sphincter fun...
