As a dual response to the HIV epidemic and high level of injecting drug use in Vietnam, Ministry Health (MOH) initiated pilot methadone maintenance therapy (MMT) program Hai Phong Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) early 2009. The objectives were provide evidence on whether MMT could be successfully implemented Vietnam scaled up other localities.

In Vietnam, like many countries in Southeast Asia, the commonly used approach of center-based compulsory drug treatment (CCT) has been criticized on human rights ground. Meanwhile, community-based voluntary methadone maintenance (MMT) implemented for nearly a decade with promising results. Reform-minded leaders have seeking empirical evidence costs and effectiveness associated these two main modalities. Conducting evaluations treatments, especially where randomization is not ethical,...

Plasmodium vivax cases represent more than 50% of a diminishing malaria case load in Vietnam. Safe and effective radical cure strategies could support elimination by 2030. This study investigated the operational feasibility introducing point-of-care quantitative glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) testing into management practices. A prospective interventional was conducted at nine district hospitals commune health stations Binh Phuoc Gia Lai provinces Vietnam over period October 2020...

Abstract Introduction and Aims Quality of life (QOL) is a relevant quantifiable outcome drug dependence treatment. We assessed health‐related QOL for people released from three centre‐based compulsory treatment (CCT) centres in Vietnam, using the EQ‐5D. The study aimed to examine prognostic value relation time relapse heroin use among participants. Design Methods Two hundred eight CCT participants with were interviewed at release, 3, 6 12 months post‐release. Health‐related was measured...

Hyper-immunoglobulin E syndromes (HIES), also known as Job's syndrome, is a rare primary immunodeficiency disorder characterized by elevated serum IgE levels, recurrent cutaneous and sinopulmonary infections, chronic eczematous dermatitis. The condition can manifest in two familial forms: autosomal dominant (AD-HIES) recessive (AR-HIES), with most cases being sporadic.

We prove that the original compact convex set with no extreme points, constructed by Roberts (1977) is an absolute retract, therefore homeomorphic to Hilbert cube. Our proof consists of two parts. In this first part, we give a sufficient condition for space be AR. second part paper, shall apply show example
