UnknownEconomic evaluation of a community health worker model for tuberculosis care in Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam: a mixed-methods Social Return on Investment Analysis.

Background

There is extensive evidence for the cost-effectiveness of programmatic and additional tuberculosis (TB) interventions, but no studies have employed the social return on investment (SROI) methodology. We conducted a SROI analysis to measure the benefits of a community health worker...

UnknownAcceptance and User Experiences of a Wearable Device for the Management of Hospitalized Patients in COVID-19-Designated Wards in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam: Action Learning Project.

Background

Wearable devices have been used extensively both inside and outside of the hospital setting. During the COVID-19 pandemic, in some contexts, there was an increased need to remotely monitor pulse and saturated oxygen for patients due to the lack of staff and bedside monitors.

Ob...

UnknownPhenotypic and genotypic characteristics of ESBL and AmpC producing organisms associated with bacteraemia in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Background

Broad-spectrum antimicrobials are commonly used as empirical therapy for infections of presumed bacterial origin. Increasing resistance to these antimicrobial agents has prompted the need for alternative therapies and more effective surveillance. Better surveillance leads to more ...

UnknownMapping of Rice Varieties and Sowing Date Using X-Band SAR Data.
Rice is a major staple food for nearly half of the world's population and has a considerable contribution to the global agricultural economy. While spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data have proved to have great potential to provide rice cultivation area, few studies have been performed to ...

UnknownThe latency time of SARS-CoV- 2 Delta variant in infection- and vaccine-naive individuals from Vietnam.

Background

The latency time (from infection to infectiousness) guides the choice of measures required to control an infectious disease. Estimates of the SARS-CoV- 2 latency time are sparse due to lack of appropriate and representative data. Infection time is rarely known exactly and exposure...

UnknownAn artificial intelligence-based approach to identify volume status in patients with severe dengue using wearable PPG data.
Dengue shock syndrome (DSS) is a serious complication of dengue infection which occurs when critical plasma leakage results in haemodynamic shock. Treatment is challenging as fluid therapy must balance the risk of hypoperfusion with volume overload. In this study, we investigate the potential utilit...

UnknownCytotoxicity, anti-diabeticity, and phytocomposition investigation of Vietnamese Euphorbia tithymaloides Linn. (Euphorbiaceae).
In this study, the aerial parts of mature Vietnamese Euphorbia tithymaloides plants were put through cytotoxic, anti-diabetic, and phytocompositional evaluations. Specifically, four extracts (petroleum ether (PE), ethyl acetate (EA), methanol (Me), and aqueous (W)) were prepared by maceration...

UnknownDesign, synthesis, biological evaluation, and <i>in silico</i> studies of novel 1,3-thiazole derivatives.
A series of novel 1,3-thiazole heterocyclic derivatives has been synthesized and structurally characterized using melting point, FT-IR, 1D and 2D NMR, and HR-MS. The compounds were screened for antibacterial activities, three human cancer cell lines (A549, HepG2, and MCF-7), and anti-inflammatory an...

UnknownContinuity of primary care for type 2 diabetes and hypertension and its association with health outcomes and disease control: insights from Central Vietnam.

Background

Vietnam is undergoing a rapid epidemiological transition with a considerable burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs), especially hypertension and diabetes (T2DM). Continuity of care (COC) is widely acknowledged as a benchmark for an efficient health system. This study aimed to ...

UnknownWolbachia wMel strain-mediated effects on dengue virus vertical transmission from Aedes aegypti to their offspring.

Background

Dengue virus serotypes (DENV-1 to -4) can be transmitted vertically in Aedes aegpti mosquitoes. Whether infection with the wMel strain of the endosymbiont Wolbachia can reduce the incidence of vertical transmission of DENV from infected females to their offspring is not well under...
