Mitophylogeny of Pangasiid Catfishes and its Taxonomic Implications for Pangasiidae and the Suborder Siluroidei.

Pangasiidae (catfish order: Siluriformes) comprises 30 valid catfish species in four genera: , , , and . Their systematics are frequently revised due to the addition of newly described species. Although Pangasiidae is known to be a monophyletic family, the generic and phylogenetic relationships among the taxa are poorly resolved.

A regional approach for health risk assessment of toxicants in plastic food containers.

Unlabelled: Plastic food containers are being used popularly, generating a waste of about 115 million tons in Vietnam. Such waste is causing environmental and health issues. This study conducted a field survey with 250 local people and selected 59 samples out of 135 plastic food containers collected in Go Vap district, Vietnam.

Using dinoprostone slow release vaginal insert for cervical ripening in term-pregnancy with oligohydramnios.

Aims: The study purposed to evaluate the success rate of cervical ripening using dinoprostone controlled-release vaginal insert and reveal some factors relating to successful cervical ripening.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Tu Du Hospital in Vietnam from December 2021 to August 2022. The study enrolled 200 pregnant women with gestational age ≥37 weeks diagnosed with oligohydramnios.

Multiple genetic lineages of anadromous migratory Mekong catfish revealed by mtDNA control region and cytochrome .

Population genetic structure of migratory fishes can reflect ecological and evolutionary processes. is a critically important anadromous catfish in the Mekong River, and its migration pathways and genetic structure have attracted much interest. To investigate, we quantified the genetic diversity of this species using the control region (D-loop) and Cytochrome (Cyt) of the mitochondrial genome.
