Active case finding is a top priority for the global control of tuberculosis, but robust evidence its effectiveness in high-prevalence settings lacking. We sought to evaluate household-contact investigation, as compared with standard, passive measures alone, Vietnam.
Progress towards ending tuberculosis (TB) in Viet Nam includes monitoring the costs borne by patients through periodic facility-based surveys.To document magnitude of incurred TB-affected households and establish a baseline for top End TB indicator Nam.A national survey with retrospective data collection projection among 735 participants 20 stratified clusters was conducted 2016. Each patient interviewed on costs, time loss, coping measures asset ownership. Total were expressed as proportion...
Sino-Vietnamese words play an extremely important role in the Vietnamese vocabulary system. help national language become refined and elegant. Besides, expression social communication is accurate, polite cultural. The teaching of schools has achieved certain results, however, practice shows that skills recognizing accurately using are not simple for students. Therefore, we chose research reading comprehension texts Literature textbooks at secondary school level, belonging to book series...
BackgroundActive case finding is recommended as an important strategy to control tuberculosis, particularly in low-income and middle-income countries with a high prevalence of the disease. However, costs cost-effectiveness active are unclear due absence evidence from randomised trials. We assessed Vietnam, where there tuberculosis.MethodsWe conducted economic evaluation alongside Active Case Finding Tuberculosis (ACT2) trial—a pragmatic cluster-randomised controlled trial 70 districts across...
Abstract Background Mental health is reported to be a significant issue among slum dwellers and unhoused (homeless) individuals worldwide, particularly those facing housing instability. Ho Chi Minh City, the largest city industrial hub of Vietnam, has substantial population experiencing instability, although its exact scale rarely been accurately measured. This study aimed estimate prevalence serious psychological distress in City identify factors associated with distress. Methods A...
Abstract Background Chest X-ray (CXR) screening is a useful diagnostic tool to test individuals at high risk of tuberculosis (TB), yet image interpretation requires trained human readers who are in short supply many TB burden countries. Therefore, CXR by computer-aided detection software (CAD) may overcome some these challenges, but evidence on its accuracy still limited. We established library with images and metadata from groups that underwent variety countries assess the three commercial...
Differences in the prevalence of latent tuberculous infection (LTBI) and tuberculosis (TB) disease among contacts patients with multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) drug-susceptible are not well understood.To compare tuberculin skin test (TST) positivity household MDR-TB never previously treated for ('new TB').Consecutive their at nine urban district clinics Viet Nam were screened LTBI, followed up 6 months. LTBI was defined as a TST result least 10 mm.A total 167 337 recruited. A 167/180 (25.8%)...
Malnutrition in cancer patients reduces response to chemotherapy, increases the hospitalization costs, hospital infections, and deaths. The aim of this study was determine prevalence, level malnutrition, its related factors at a local Southern Vietnam.A descriptive cross-sectional performed on all 118 who were undergoing inpatient treatment Long An General Hospital, Vietnam from May September 2020. Data collected by face-to-face interviewing using subjective global assessment (SGA) medical...
Vietnam has been using a levofloxacin-based shorter treatment regimen (STR) for rifampicin resistant/multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (RR/MDR-TB) patients since 2016 on pilot basis. This lasts 9-11 months and is provided to RR/MDR-TB without second-line drug resistance. We report the outcomes factors associated with unsuccessful outcomes. conducted cohort study involving secondary analysis of data extracted from electronic patient records maintained by national TB program (NTP). Of 302...
Named Entity Recognition (NER) is one of the most common tasks natural language processing. The purpose NER to find and classify tokens in text documents into predefined categories called tags, such as person names, quantity expressions, percentage names locations, organizations, well expression time, currency others. Although there a number approaches have been proposed for this task Russian language, it still has substantial potential better solutions. In work, we studied several deep...
Purpose This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of serious psychological distress (SPD) among slum dwellers and homeless individuals in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, identify factors associated with SPD. Method A cross-sectional survey 415 unstable housing, including 383 32 individuals, was conducted from November 2023 April 2024. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire that included Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K6). Results The SPD 19.8% (18.5% 34.4% homeless)....
Recently, the epidemic forecast has been interest of many researchers. Traditionally, mathematical epidemiological models have used for forecast. However, these require some functional dependency assumptions that may not be always practical. Other approaches based on data mining achieved promising results thanks to development efficient techniques and computing technologies. This paper proposed a method cholera association rule using non-standard distribution dataset. Experimental show is...
Background: Active case finding (ACF) is recommended as an important strategy to control tuberculosis (TB), particularly in high prevalence low- and middle- income (LMIC) settings. However, the costs cost-effectiveness ACF have been uncertain, absence of evidence from randomised controlled trials (RCT). We investigated Vietnam based on findings a recent large-scale trial.Methods: conducted pragmatic cluster RCT 70 districts eight provinces Vietnam, comparing plus standard passive (PCF) PCF...
Abstract Background: Lymphedema is a disease thatrefers to tissue swelling caused by an accumulation of protein-rich fluid that usually drained through the lymphatic system. Detection lymphedema often based on expensive diagnoses such as bioimpedance spectroscopy, shear wave elastography, computed tomography, etc. Applications data science and machine learning in predicting medical conditions offered support for doctors patients early detection diseases. Although current studies proposed...
In recent years, tours of cultural festivals in Viet Nam have been on the rise thanks to increasing demands from foreign visitors, which requires high-quality English versions festival texts for tour guidance and tourism promotion, contributing a positive image Nam.However, such are burdened with large number culture-specific items that not easily translated Vietnamese into English.This paper aims at exploring terms texts, identifying their categories, then applying appropriate techniques...
