Clinical and paraclinical characteristics and evaluation of surgical outcomes for patients with nasal bone fractures at Hai Phong Medical University Hospital
type: item
description: Background: Prescribing medications for patients with impaired renal function requires appropriate dose adjustments based on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) to minimize the risk of drug accumulation and related adverse events. However, dose adjustment is often inconsistently applied and lacks systematic implementation in routine clinical practice. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of a renal function–based dose adjustment alert tool integrated into the electronic prescribing system at a general hospital. Methods: A pre–post intervention study without a control group was conducted at Hai Phong International General Hospital from January to June 2025. The study included 1,000 inpatient prescriptions containing at least one active ingredient requiring renal dose adjustment based on eGFR, equally divided into pre-intervention (n = 500) and post-intervention (n = 500) groups. Data were processed and analyzed using R software with appropriate statistical tests. Results: There were no statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics (age, sex, length of hospital stay, comorbidities) between the two groups (p > 0.05). The rate of inappropriate dosing prior to intervention ranged from 6.1% to 15.0% depending on the stage of renal impairment, and decreased to between 0% and 5.6% after the intervention, with statistically significant improvements observed in some stages (p < 0.05). The physician acceptance rate of dose adjustment alerts ranged from 75.6% to 91.1%, highest in the anticoagulant and antibiotic groups. Conclusion: Integrating a renal function–based dose adjustment alert tool into the electronic prescribing system significantly reduced dosing errors and was well accepted by clinicians. Further development and long-term clinical outcome evaluations are warranted.

title: Comparision of the effectiveness of combined therapy sodium-glucose transporter 2 inhibitors versus traditional therapy in treatment of type 2 diabetes with heart failure in Hai Phong International General Hospital
description: To compare the effectiveness of a combination therapy involving sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2i) inhibitors with traditional therapy in treating type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) accompanied by heart failure, the research team conducted a retrospective study on 106 medical records, including 53 patients treated with traditional therapy and 53 patients treated with combination therapy. This study aimed to achieve two objectives: comparing the effectiveness of the SGLT2i combination therapy against the traditional therapy in treating T2DM with concurrent heart failure. After 3 months of treatment, both patient groups showed a reduction in HbA1C, with the traditional therapy group showing a decrease of 0.71% and the SGLT2i group showing a decrease of 0.72%. This difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Similarly, the percentage of patients achieving the target HbA1C and fasting plasma glucose levels increased in both groups, with the SGLT2i group experiencing a greater increase, although the difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). The mean BNP levels also decreased in both groups, with a greater reduction in the SGLT2i group (12.54 pg/mL) compared to the traditional group (7.07 pg/mL); however, this difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Notably, the weight reduction in the SGLT2i group (1.25 kg) was significantly more than in the traditional therapy group (0.44 kg), and this difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05). Overall, the results indicate that the SGLT2i combination therapy offers some benefits over traditional therapy, but the differences in treatment effectiveness between the two groups were not statistically significant for most parameters.

Study on the inhibition of alpha-glucosidase and acetylcholinesterase by Stellaria media harvested in Hai Phong
type: item
description: This study was conducted on ”Cỏ sao” (Stellaria media L., Caryophyllaceae) collected in Hai Phong. The chemical composition of the samples was analyzed using specific chemical reactions, thin-layer chromatography (TLC), and the inhibitory effects on alpha-glucosidase and acetylcholinesterase enzymes were tested to evaluate the potential of the herbal material in the treatment of related diseases. The results revealed the presence of carotenoids and cardiac glycosides, while groups such as alkaloids, flavonoids, phytosterols, and saponins were not detected. TLC using a solvent system of n-hexane : ethyl acetate (5:1) showed that the ethyl acetate fraction displayed more distinct and diverse spots than other samples, indicating the presence of various chemical compounds. The herbal samples exhibited little inhibitory activity on the acetylcholinesterase enzyme (IC50 > 256 µg/ml). Similarly, the inhibitory activity on the alpha-glucosidase enzyme was also fragile, with an IC50 value > 256 µg/ml. However, the herbal material still has the potential for further research on other biological properties, such as cell protection and cardiovascular health.

Antibiotic resistance of some gram-negative bacteria at Hai Phong International General Hospital from 2020 to 2024
type: item
description: This study investigates the antibiotic resistance of Gram-negative bacteria at Hai Phong International General Hospital from January 2020 to October 2024. A retrospective analysis was conducted on microbiological test data collected during this period, focusing on the isolation rates and resistance profiles of key bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Escherichia coli. The results indicated a total of 363 samples analyzed, with Pseudomonas aeruginosa having the highest isolation rate from urine samples (24.24%), followed by sputum (17.36%). Antibiotic resistance analysis revealed resistance rates of 55.56% for Ampicillin-Sulbactam and 50% for Amikacin. Other antibiotics such as Ertapenem (28.82%), Cefepime (28.13%), and Moxifloxacin (30.61%) also exhibited high resistance rates. Acinetobacter baumannii was primarily isolated with a total of 98 samples, where samples from bronchial secretions accounted for 23.47% and urine (17.35%). Doxycycline showed the highest resistance rate (90.63%), followed by Tetracycline (77.14%). Although no resistant strains of Meropenem were found, other carbapenems like Ertapenem and Imipenem exhibited significant resistance rates (50% and 53.13%, respectively). Escherichia coli was isolated positively from 2,436 samples, with an ESBL rate of 26.03%. The majority of Escherichia coli was isolated from urine samples (73.11%). Resistance rates of Escherichia coli to Ciprofloxacin and Moxifloxacin were 50% and 49.65%, respectively. These findings underscore the necessity for continuous monitoring and implementation of antibiotic stewardship programs to address the increasing threat of antibiotic resistance among Gram-negative bacteria in the hospital environment.

Investigation of the Anti-inflammatory Activity of Four Leaf Extracts of Rhodomyrtus tomentosa Collected in Do Son, Hai Phong
type: item
description: This study was conducted on Rhodomyrtus tomentosa (commonly known as Sim), collected from the hilly region of Do Son, Hai Phong, Vietnam. Dried leaf samples of R. tomentosa were subjected to ultrasonic-assisted extraction at room temperature using three solvents: water (RT-N2), ethanol (RT-Et), and methanol (RT-Me), as well as hot water extraction (RT-N1), yielding four different extracts. The anti-inflammatory activity of these extracts was evaluated via the inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW 264.7 macrophage cells, in order to assess the therapeutic potential of R. tomentosa in inflammation-related conditions. The results indicated that three extracts RT-Me, RT-Et and RT-N1 are all exhibited moderate to weak anti-inflammatory activity, with IC50 values ranging from 13.53 ± 0.95 µg/mL to 190.75 ± 6.30 µg/mL. In contrast, the RT-N2 extract showed negligible activity compared to the positive control L-NMMA (IC50 = 3.45 ± 0.5 µg/mL). Among the tested extracts, the methanolic extract (RT-Me) demonstrated the most potent inhibitory effect, with an IC50 value of 13.53 ± 0.95 µg/mL. These findings suggest that leaf extracts of Rhodomyrtus tomentosa, particularly the methanolic extract, hold promise for the treatment of inflammatory conditions and may provide a basis for further studies focusing on burn therapy.

Prevalence and associated factors of macrosomia among prenant women with gestational diabetes mellitus at Hai Phong Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital
type: item
description: Objective: This study pursued two aims: (1) to determine the prevalence of macrosomia and (2) to identify factors associated with macrosomia among women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) delivering at Hai Phong Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital. Methods: Objective 1: A cross sectional descriptive study was conducted using convenience sampling of 3,164 women with GDM who delivered at the hospital from January 2021 to December 2024. Objective 2: A case–control study was carried out on 117 GDM women who delivered macrosomic infants (cases) and 234 GDM women who delivered non macrosomic infants (controls) during the same period and setting. Results: The prevalence of macrosomia among women with GDM was 3.95%. Univariate logistic regression analysis identified the following factors as increasing the risk of macrosomia: maternal age ≥ 30 years, parity ≥ 3, diet-only treatment, BMI, serum glucose, and HbA1c at the end of pregnancy. Intellectual labor (white-collar occupation) was found to be a protective factor. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that only three variables were independently and significantly associated with macrosomia: Serum glucose at the end of pregnancy (OR = 1.33, 95% CI: 1.12 – 1.56, p = 0.001), BMI at the end of pregnancy (OR = 1.11, 95% CI: 1.03 – 1.20, p = 0.006), and HbA1c at the end of pregnancy (N=107, OR = 2.29, 95% CI: 1.34 – 3.92, p = 0.002). Conclusion: The prevalence of macrosomia among women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) was 3.95%. Elevated serum glucose levels, higher body mass index (BMI), and increased hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels at the end of pregnancy were independently associated with a higher risk of macrosomia in this population.

type: item
description: Objective: To describe the side effects experienced by women using Implanon NXT® and to examine associated factors. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on 34 patients aged ³18 years presenting with dizziness . All patients underwent a full battery of Videonystagmography tests, including Saccade, Optokinetic, Dix - Hallpike and Caloric tests, between April and June 2025. Results: The mean age was 55,6 ± 14,0 years; 76,5% of patients were female. The most common etiologies were peripheral vestibular disorders (52,9%), followed by central (26,5%), mixed (14,7%), and unclassified causes (5,9%). Frequent symptoms included spinning vertigo (100%), nausea / vomiting (44,1%), and imbalance (41,2%). Saccade and Optokinetic tests demonstrated high sensitivity in detecting central causes of vertigo, while unilateral reduction Caloric response was more commonly associated with peripheral vestibular disorders (p<0,05). Conclusion: Videonystagmography is a reliable diagnostic tool in the evaluation of dizziness, especially for distinguishing between peripheral and central vestibular causes. Its application improves diagnostic accuracy, particularly in atypical presentations such as non – posterior canal BPPV of central vertigo with minimal neurological signs.

type: item
description: Objective: Develop a standard technical procedure for testing to determine EGFR gene mutations from paraffin cast samples. Methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study, using Realtime-PCR technique in the process of determining gene mutations. Six paraffin cast tissue samples FFPE of patients diagnosed with lung cancer by histopathology and identified with EGFR gene mutations by molecular biology techniques were used to develop the procedure. Apply the procedure to detect EGFR gene mutations after being built on 109 paraffin cast samples FFPE of patients diagnosed with lung cancer by histopathology. Results: With 4-5 slices for each sample, the DNA concentration obtained ensures the quantity and input sample for the gene amplification reaction. When soaking in xylene twice in a row with each soaking time of 5 minutes under shaking and incubation conditions at 560C, the sample completely removed Paraffin, ensuring the purity of the input DNA of the gene amplification reaction. Of the 109 specimens tested, 38 were positive. Of these, 1 specimen was positive for both S768I and G719C; L858R had the highest positive rate of 31.58%, followed by ex19del at 28.95%; G719x and EGFR S768I both had a rate of 10.53%; EGFR ex20ins accounted for 7.89%, and finally EGFR T790M and EGFR L861Q accounted for 5.26%. Conclusion: Standardization and successful construction of the technical process for testing to determine EGFR gene mutations. The process gives higher test results, suitable for the facilities and equipment at the hospital. The rate of NSCLC patients identified to carry EGFR gene mutations of 34.86% is quite high.

Clinical and radiological characteristics of maxillary sinusitis caused by teeth at the Department of Dentistry and Maxillofacial Surgery, Hai Phong University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital
type: item
description: Objectives: Describe the clinical and paraclinical characteristics of odontogenic sinusitis, evaluate the treatment results of odontogenic sinusitis. Methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study on 30 patients diagnosed with odontogenic sinusitis. On cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), it is necessary to detect important signs that point to the cause of odontogenic sinusitis, such as ipsilateral maxillary sinus opacity and periapical inflammation, and periapical bone loss. Cone beam computed tomography is valuable in diagnosing maxillary sinus lesions and assessing in detail the causative tooth lesions, helping to plan combined sinus and tooth treatment. Results: showed that facial pain accounted for 90.6%, ipsilateral maxillary toothache accounted for 90.6%. Partial ipsilateral maxillary sinus opacity accounted for 62.5%, periapical inflammation accounted for 87.5%, periapical bone loss accounted for 84.4%. Thus, maxillary sinusitis due to teeth has two very valuable suggestive symptoms: facial pain and ipsilateral maxillary toothache. Treatment results: 100% of patients had stable maxillary sinus during dental treatment.
