Item type:Publication, Osteoporosis in Mongolian Population: Prevalence and Risk Factors(Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences, 2017-11-25); ; ; ; Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of osteoporosis and investigate some of its risk factors among Mongolian adults. Methods: The subjects comprised of 2001 adults (age ranged from 20 to 87) were recruited from 5 ecological zones of Mongolia. After applying exclusion criteria, 1990 subjects were selected. Speed of sound (SOS) ultrasonic bone mineral density was measured in the distal one third of radius of the non-dominant arm using the Sunlight Omnisense (Sunlight Medical, Rehovot, Israel). The data were used to calculate mean SOS and T-score by WHO osteoporosis criteria. Results: The average age was 49.1±13.5 (men: 48.6±14.6, women: 49.4±13.0). The prevalence of osteoporosis in men and women from 20-35 years of age was 4.7% vs 6.2%, from 36-45 years of age was 7.2% vs 8.0%, from ages 46-55 was 11.4% vs 25.5%, from ages 56-65 was 21.9% vs 58.3%, and from those over 65 years of age was 35.6% vs 75.5%. The prevalence of osteoporosis was lowest in Ulaanbaatar city. The independent predictors of osteoporosis in Mongolian adults were female sex, menopause, lower education level, physical inactivity and low BMI (BMI<18.5). Conclusion: Compared to neighboring and industrialized countries, the prevalence of osteoporosis in Mongolia is significantly higher. Female sex, lack of exercise, lower education level, menopause and being underweight were identified as risk factors in Mongolian adults. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Workplace Stress and Physiological Indices Correlation Study Results(Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences, 2021-07-01); ; ; Objective: Numerous studies demonstrated that while performing diverse routines in hospitals, nurses often face overcommitment and low social support. We have aimed in this study to address work-related stress level of nurses working at referral hospitals in Mongolia through determining the stress induced changes in blood pressure as well as alpha-amylase level in saliva. Methods: The study involved a totally of 473 nurses from tertiary referral hospitals of Mongolia. We employed the Work Stress Profile questionnaire of Rice and Likert scale in measuring the questions. Additionally, we measured the α-amylase level in the saliva of nurses. The arterial blood pressure, level of glucose in blood and heart pulse were evaluated by a cross-sectional model. Results: The study was conducted by collecting an age group similar to the age pyramid of nurses working in referral hospitals. The participants illustrated low levels of work stress in 7.6%, medium levels in 27.1%, and high levels of work stress in 65.3%, respectively. When we examine whether the level of stress exposure of nurses differs between the groups by high, medium, and low levels of workplace stress, the analysis of one factor variance confirms the statistical real difference (F = 3.071), (p = 0.028). The study results revealed that long lasting accumulated work stress triggers hypertension. Conclusion: The workplace stress of the nurses depends on many different physiological factors. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Kawasaki disease in Mongolia: results from 2 nationwide retrospective surveys, 1996-2008(Japan Epidemiological Association, 2011); ; Chimedsuren, OchirBACKGROUND: Kawasaki disease (KD) has been reported in many countries. However, the incidence of KD in Mongolia is not known. This is the first report of incident cases of KD in Mongolia, which were identified using data from 2 nationwide surveys. METHODS: Two nationwide retrospective surveys were conducted: medical histories were collected from patients aged 0 to 16 years who were hospitalized countrywide between 1996 and 2008. Hospital records for these patients were also reviewed. Nationwide training seminars on KD were conducted before each survey. RESULTS: For the nationwide surveys, the participation rates among all hospitals with pediatric wards were 97% and 94%. Inpatient medical histories from 1996 through 2008 were reviewed, and, among children younger than 16 years, 9 patients with KD were investigated. The age of KD patients ranged from 1.4 to 14 years; 7 of 9 patients were male. Six (67%) patients fulfilled all 6 clinical diagnostic criteria; the other 3 (33%) were defined as having KD based on the presence of 5 such criteria. Fever persisting 5 or more days, bilateral conjunctival congestion, and changes of the lips and oral cavity were the most common symptoms, and cervical lymphadenopathy was the least common symptom. Cardiac sequelae developed in 5 of the patients, 4 of whom were older than 10 years. CONCLUSIONS: The results of these nationwide surveys reveal that KD cases do exist in Mongolia. However, knowledge of KD among Mongolian pediatricians is likely to be poor. Thus, there is a need to augment their understanding to improve management of KD patients. Further studies are crucial to clarify the epidemiologic characteristics of KD in Mongolia.Scopus© Citations 11 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
