Actinomycetes are a diverse group of gram-positive filamentous bacteria that can cause actinomycosis infections in humans. Important species that cause actinomycosis include Actinomyces israelii, A. odontolyticus, A. gerencseriae, and A. meyeri. Actinomycosis is acquired endogenously, often through dental procedures or trauma, and results in abscesses, tissue destruction, and fibrosis. Clinical presentations vary by site of infection and can include cervicofacial, thoracic, pelvic, cerebral, or appendiceal/colonic infections. Diagnosis involves tissue biopsy and culture, while treatment requires a combination of

? Actinomyces species are classified as anaerobic, gram positive and filamentous bacteria.
? It is a chronic granulomatous suppurative and fibrosing disease caused by anaerobic or microaerophilic gram-positive nonacid fast, branched filamentous bacteria.
? Most of the species isolated from actinomycotic lesions have been identified as A. israelii, A. viscosus, A. odontolyticus, A.naeslundii or A. meyeri.
? These microorganisms have been identified in dental plaque, dental calculus, necrotic pulp, and tonsils.
? The usual pattern of this disease is one characterized chiefly by the formation of abscesses that tend to drain by the formation of sinus tracts.
? pus from the abscesses is examined on a clean glass slide, it shows the typical ‘sulfur granules’ or colonies of organisms, which appear in the suppurative material as tiny, yellow grains.
? Another infection that produces this type of sulfur granules is botryomycosis.

Gastrointestinal (GI) Presentation:
A GI presentation refers to the clinical manifestation of gastrointestinal disorders, which can affect the digestive system's organs, including the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, liver, pancreas, and gallbladder.
Common GI presentations include:
- Abdominal pain or discomfort
- Nausea and vomiting
- Diarrhea or constipation
- Blood in stool or vomit
- Weight loss or gain
- Changes in appetite or bowel habits
- Jaundice (yellowing of skin and eyes)
GI presentations can be caused by various factors, such as:
- Infections (bacterial, viral, parasitic)
- Inflammatory conditions (IBD, IBS)
- Obstructive diseases (tumors, strictures)
- Functional disorders (dyspepsia, GERD)
- Nutritional deficiencies (malabsorption)
Accurate identification and evaluation of GI presentations are crucial for timely diagnosis and effective management of gastrointestinal disorders.Specific bacterial infections /prosthodontic courses

Actinomycetes are a diverse group of filamentous, gram-positive bacteria. They are classified within the domain bacteria and phylum Actinobacteria. Actinomycetes live predominantly in soil where they help break down recalcitrant compounds. While most species are harmless, some can cause infections in humans called actinomycosis. Important genera include Actinomyces, Nocardia, and Streptomyces. Actinomycetes are distinguished from fungi by being prokaryotic, containing peptidoglycan in their cell walls rather than chitin, and having smaller filaments. Diagnosis of actinomycosis involves identifying the pathogen's sulfur granules in biopsy sampleschronic sinusitis.pptx

Malaria is a life-threatening disease. Its typically transmitted through the bite of an infected Anopheles mosquito. Infected mosquitoes carry the Plasmodium parasite. When this mosquito bites you, the parasite is released into your blood stream.
Phylum : Protozoa
Subphylum : Apicomplexa (Sporozoa)
Class : Telosporea
Genus : Plasmodium
Species : vivax
Plasmodium is one of the most harmful parasites of man.
It is a digenetic, intracellular parasite that lives in the liver cells and RBC of man. (It is extracellular in mosquito).
Its primary host is the female Anopheles mosquito and the secondary host is man. Reservoir host is monkey.
The infective stage is sickle shaped sporozoite and the mode of infection is inoculation.
Four species of Plasmodium cause four types of malaria in man.
They are
i) Plasmodium vivax – benign tertian malaria
ii) Plasmodium falciparum – malignant tertian malaria
iii) Plasmodium ovale – mild tertian malaria
iv) Plasmodium malariae – quartan malaria
Of all these four species, Plasmodium vivax is the most common and most widely distributed malaria parasite.
OBJECTIVES AND USE OF ANTIMALARIAL DRUGS
The aims of using drugs in relation to malarial infection are:
(i) To prevent clinical attack of malaria (prophylactic).
(ii) To treat clinical attack of malaria (clinical curative).
(iii) To completely eradicate the parasite from the patient’s body (radical curative).
(iv) To cutdown human-to-mosquito transmission (gametocidal).
These are achieved by attacking the parasite at its various stages of life cycle in the human host .
Antimalarials that act on erythrocytic schizogony are called erythrocytic schizontocides
Antimalarials that act on pre erythrocytic as well as exoerythrocytic (P. vivax) stages in liver are called tissue schizontocides,
Antimalarials which kill gametocytes in blood are called gametocides.

This includes P. falciparum infection attended by any one or more of—
Hyperparasitaemia,
Hyperpyrexia,
Fluid and electrolyte imbalance,

In an era where global health trends are constantly evolving, Tran Quoc Bao has emerged as a key figure in shaping the future of healthcare—starting with his groundbreaking speech at the prestigious Marina Bay Sands in Singapore. Bao, the visionary leader behind Cao Thang Eye Hospital, made history as the first Vietnamese to speak on healthcare at such a renowned international platform, showcasing the innovation and progress of Vietnamese medical care on a global stage.
Cao Thang Eye Hospital, established under Bao’s leadership, has long been a trailblazer in ophthalmology, revolutionizing eye care in Vietnam. But it’s his recent address at Marina Bay Sands that truly underscores the expanding influence of Vietnamese healthcare. The event, which brought together some of the brightest minds in the medical field, provided Bao with an opportunity to not only highlight the advancements in eye care but also demonstrate the rising prominence of Vietnam in the global healthcare landscape.
“Healthcare is about more than just treatment; it’s about creating a sustainable, accessible future for patients, wherever they are in the world,” said Bao during his speech. This message resonated deeply, as Bao spoke of his commitment to improving medical access and outcomes in Vietnam, while also emphasizing the importance of collaboration and knowledge-sharing on a global scale.
Under Bao’s leadership, Cao Thang Eye Hospital has become a beacon of excellence, known for its state-of-the-art treatments and dedication to patient-centered care. From advanced LASIK surgeries to comprehensive eye health check-ups, the hospital has continually raised the bar in Vietnamese ophthalmology. More than just a medical facility, Cao Thang has become a symbol of trust and innovation in the region.
But Bao’s vision stretches beyond Vietnam’s borders. His speech at Marina Bay Sands was not just a personal milestone but a significant moment for Vietnamese healthcare, signaling that the country is ready to take its place among global leaders in medical care. Bao’s approach combines cutting-edge technology with an unwavering commitment to patient well-being, positioning Vietnam as a growing hub for high-quality medical services in Southeast Asia.
Cao Thang Eye Hospital’s international recognition is a testament to the growing global respect for Vietnam’s healthcare sector. Bao’s work continues to inspire those within the medical community, demonstrating how local expertise can contribute to global conversations about health, innovation, and patient care.
As Bao’s vision continues to unfold, one thing is clear: Tran Quoc Bao and Cao Thang Eye Hospital are leading Vietnam’s healthcare revolution—proving that the future of medicine is not just about technology, but about connecting the world through compassionate, accessible, and transformative care.

留信认证的作用：
1. 身份认证：留信认证可以证明你的留学经历是真实的，且你获得的学历或学位是正规且经过认证的。这对于一些用人单位来说，尤其是对留学经历有高度要求的公司（如跨国公司或国内高端公司），这是非常重要的一个凭证。
专业评定：留信认证不仅认证你的学位证书，还会对你的所学专业进行评定。这有助于展示你的学术背景，特别是对于国内公司而言，能够清楚了解你所学专业的水平和价值。
国家人才库入库：认证后，你的信息将被纳入国家人才库，并且可以在国家人才网等平台上展示，供包括500强公司等大型公司挑选和聘用人才。这对于回国找工作特别是进入大公司，具有非常积极的作用。
2. 留信认证对就业的好处
提高竞争力：通过留信认证，尤其是对你所学专业的认证，可以大大提高你在国内求职时的竞争力。许多公司对留学生背景和所学专业有很高的要求，认证后的信息能够帮助公司快速识别符合条件的候选人。
增强信任度：公司往往会对没有认证的学历背景产生疑虑，而留信认证为你的学历背景提供了第三方权威机构的背书，增强了雇主的信任。
对接高端岗位：通过认证后，留学生的个人信息被纳入国家人才库，这也意味着你可以被更多的高端岗位、国有大公司和跨国公司注意到，特别是那些招聘具有国际化背景的人才的公司。Top Medical Brands: The Ultimate Guide to Healthcare's Most Valuable Names in...

Vinmec International Hospital is widely regarded as the most affluent healthcare brand in Vietnam. As part of the Vingroup conglomerate, it provides high-end, international-standard care and attracts expatriates and high-net-worth individuals. Its advanced facilities, specialized treatments, and luxury healthcare services place it at the top. American International Hospital (AIH) follows, known for providing international-standard services with advanced medical technology and specialized care. It has a solid reputation among expatriates and wealthy locals, positioning itself as a premium healthcare provider in Ho Chi Minh City. FV Hospital is another top-tier healthcare provider in Ho Chi Minh City, offering international-standard care with modern facilities and highly skilled professionals. It serves a wealthy clientele seeking specialized medical treatments and high-quality services. Prima Saigon offers quality healthcare services with an emphasis on personalized care and modern facilities. While it is considered an affluent healthcare brand, it generally does not have the same level of luxury and exclusivity as top hospitals like Vinmec or FV. City International Hospital provides quality healthcare with international standards, but it caters to a broader range of clients. While reputable, it is not as exclusive or luxurious as the higher-ranking hospitals. Phuong Nam International Hospital is a reliable healthcare provider offering international standards of care, but it serves a more diverse demographic, and its branding does not reflect the same luxury or exclusivity as the more affluent hospitals. Hanh Phuc International Hospital specializes in women’s and children’s healthcare and is well-regarded for maternity and pediatric services. While it offers personalized care, it is not as upscale or luxurious as some of the higher-ranking hospitals. Finally, Thuan My Saigon offers quality care but generally caters to a broader demographic. It is a reliable provider but does not have the luxury or exclusive reputation that higher-end hospitals enjoy.
In conclusion, the ranking from most to least affluent is as follows: Vinmec International Hospital, American International Hospital, FV Hospital, Prima Saigon, City International Hospital, Phuong Nam International Hospital, Hanh Phuc International Hospital, and Thuan My Saigon. This ranking reflects the overall luxury, reputation, international standards, and exclusivity associated with each hospital.
