Glaucoma Clinic Monitoring Over 6 Months Using Online Circular Contrast Perimetry in Comparison with Standard Automatic Perimetry: The Developing-World Setting.

Purpose: Online circular contrast perimetry provides visual field testing on any computer or tablet without additional hardware. This study compared outcomes of online circular contrast perimetry (OCCP) and standard automated perimetry (SAP) in a developing world setting.

Methods: The longitudinal and observation study was conducted on patients sampled during 2023 at Hanoi Medical University Hospital.

Treatment of Vietnamese patients diagnosed with myelodysplastic neoplasms: Practical experience in a developing country.

Background: Treatment of patients diagnosed with myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) is difficult and the outcome is still limited, especially in developing countries. We conducted this study in order to share some experience in treating patients diagnosed with MDS in developing countries.

Methods: This was a retrospective study that included 32 patients with newly MDS.

Outcomes of Second Trabeculectomy Versus Glaucoma Drainage Device in Juvenile Open-angle Glaucoma After Primary Trabeculectomy Failure.

Precis: Second trabeculectomy and glaucoma drainage device implantation offer similar success rates for juvenile open angle glaucoma after initial trabeculectomy failure. However, second trabeculectomies required fewer medications. A quarter of patients in both groups required a third operation after 2.

Identification of novel variants of and genes in xeroderma pigmentosum patients in Vietnam.

Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) disorder is recognized as a genetic condition inherited by autosomal recessive fashion. XP results from a defective DNA repair mechanism that significantly increases skin cancer risk. Fifteen Vietnamese patients were investigated with typical clinical manifestations of XP.

Changes of physicochemical, bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity of nutritional beverages products from VD20 broken Rice in the pasteurization process.

VD20 broken rice, a byproduct of rice milling, shows significant potential for value-added applications, particularly in functional beverage production. This study investigates the impact of homogenization and pasteurization on the quality and stability of VD20 broken rice-based beverages. Homogenization at speeds 6000 to 12,000 rpm for 5 to 20 min improved product stability, while pasteurization between 80 and 95 °C for up to 20 min ensured microbial safety and extended shelf life.
