    Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify cases of human echinococcosis in the Bayan-Ulgii, Khovd provinces, to determine their WHO classification by ultrasound and to identify the haplotype in surgically cysts removed. Methods: A total of 1063 people participated in ultrasound screening. Patients who had a positive echinococcosis by ultrasound underwent serologic testing for detection of antibodies for echinococcosis. Results: Ninety people were positive for the liver cystic lesions by ultrasound screening of which 12 cases were newly diagnosed cystic echinococcosis. Four were cystic echinococcosis stages 1-2, five were stage 3, while three were cystic echinococcosis stage 4. Thirty-three patients with previously known echinococcosis stage 2 and alveolar echinococcosis stage 4 were also examined. Out of 29 cystic echinococcosis cases, 24 underwent treatment. Of 24 who underwent treatment, only one was cured. The haplotypes E. canadensis G6/7 and E. granulossus s.s. G1 were confirmed by evaluating the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene of mitochondrial DNA in two patients in Bayan-Ulgii. Conclusion: Ninety people were positive for cystic echinococcosis in western Mongolia of which 12 cases were newly diagnosed cases. Of the 12 new cystic echinococcosis cases, 4 were stages 1-2, 5 were stage 3 and 3 were stage 4 by WHO classification. The haplotype in Bayan-Ulgii population were E. canadensis and s.s.

    Objectives: The high prevalence of overweight and obese adolescents has severe consequences for economic and social development in Mongolia. This study aims to describe the prevalence of obesity and its associated factors among adolescents. Methods: Using the published results of the 2013 Global School-based Student Health Survey (GSHS), we determined the prevalence of overweight and obese youth as well as some aspects of their physical activity, alcohol consumption, tobacco usage, and dietary behavior. A total of 5393 students from grade 7-12 students who were normal weight, overweight or obese were studied. Results: Approximately 15% of adolescents were overweight or obese with significant differences in BMI when comparing students in grades 7 to 9 to students in grades 10 to 12 (p= .004). More of the students from grades 7 - 9 were overweight than obese (13.3% vs. 10.7%), while more in grades 10 - 12 were obese (2.1% vs. 1.1%). None of the risk factors available in the GSHS data set were related to being overweight or obese. Conclusion: Using the potential risk factors available in the GSHS data set, none were associated with being overweight or obese. There is a need for better understanding of the social, economic, and physical determinants of the high prevalence of overweight and obese adolescents in Mongolia.

    Objective: The purpose of this study is to provide an evidence based foundation to implement interventions that improve the health of the population of UB, particularly pregnant women and their yet to be born children by reducing the impact of exposure to the ultra-high air pollution levels found in the city. Methods: This is a hospital based cross-sectional survey including 35 pregnant women, 26 doctors and 31 pregnant women participated in focus groups. All participants were selected from Family Health Centers and District Hospital in UB. Results: Pregnant women both lack accurate knowledge about the effects of extreme air pollution and mask wearing and desire to have more knowledge. Health practitioners scored much higher than pregnant women, in general, on knowledge about the health implications of air pollution and the benefits of wearing air masks. Pregnant women report an overall very negative perception about wearing air masks that is more negative than their report about their perceptions of other’s negative attitudes toward those who wear air masks. Conclusion: This pilot study exposes areas that can be used in a complementary manner in the design and implementation of the more detailed full survey that will lead to the design and implementation of the planned intervention.

    Objective: To assess the health-seeking behavior among presumptive TB cases in a Mongolian population-based TB prevalence survey. Tuberculosis (TB) is a major public health concern in Mongolia. TB prevalence survey provides a chance to explore health seeking behavior at the population level. Methods: A population based, cross-sectional survey was conducted using 51 cluster samplings in Mongolia. Participants were interviewed for TB symptoms and their health seeking behavior aged 15 years and above. Participants with a cough lasting two weeks were classified as TB suspects. Results: Of 27,112 survey participants, 4.6% had cough more than two weeks. Forty-eight percent of them had sought health care and to reported pharmacies (26.2%), family group practitioners (45.7%), district health centers (13.3%), and private physicians (3.6%) as first point of contact. The young adults (46.8%) and students (61.0%) approached pharmacies for care more often than their counterparts. Preference for family clinics increased with age. Conclusions: In this survey, 48.1% of the TB suspects had visited a health-care provider. TB case detection need to be improved by retraining health staffs of family health facilities.
