Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by consistently elevated blood sugar levels, leading to prolonged carbohydrate, protein, and lipid metabolism disruptions. This condition can cause damage to various organs, especially the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, eyes and nerves. This study aimed to investigate the usage of type 2 diabetes treatment medications among outpatient individuals at Vinh Long General Hospital. Surveying was conducted on 281 patients (aged 18 and above) with diabetes type 2. Our results revealed that the most common treatment protocol was a combination of two medications (142 cases, accounting for 50,5%), followed by monotherapy regimen (119 cases, accounting for 42.3%), and only 1 case accounting for (0.4%) followed a four-drug protocol. The proportion of patients achieving blood sugar control goals after 3 months was 50.5%. Influencing factors were reported to be associated with the effectiveness of blood sugar control, including the patient’s age, duration of type 2 diabetes, and physical exercise. The use of drugs and treatment protocols for type 2 diabetes demonstrated effectivelyness in improving the proportion of patients achieving HbA1c and FPG.

Hypertension is a leading cause of mortality of millions of people each year. Prescribing hypertension drugs for patients is therefore important because of the effective treatment and prevention of complications. The research aimed to survey the characteristics of outpatient treatment for hypertension and analyze the use of antihypertensive drugs in outpatient treatment at Vinh Long General Hospital in 2023. A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on 384 prescriptions of hypertension outpatients treated at the Outpatient Department. Data was analyzed by using SPSS 20.0 software. All hypertension drugs in the study samples were within the recommended list by the Vietnam National Heart Association. The angiotensin II receptor blockers were the most common drug group which accounted for 78.39%. The most frequently prescribed drugs were bisoprolol, losartan, and amlodipine, with usage rates of 56.77%, 41.66%, and 35.42%, respectively. The rate of using combination regimens was higher than monotherapy regimens (75.26%) and mainly combined beta blockers - ARBs (22.15%). Further, hypertension drug groups were used widely and diversely with angiotensin II receptor blockers being the most prevalent.

Increasing organic matter in soilf resulted effectively in increasing crop yield, increasing the quality of agricultural products, improving soil fertility, and being environmental friendly. Rich organic soil was an important source in urban agriculture, in the Mekong Delta. The objective of this study was to use agricultural by-products to compost bio- organic-rich soil by combining with beneficial microorganisms to help improve crop yield for growing vegetables in urban agricultural production. The experiment planting mustard green was ranged in completely randomized with three mixing formulas to create bio-organic compost soil combined with NPK inorganic fertilizer (four levels: 0%, 25%, 50% and 100% as recommended). The results showed that the bio-organic compost soil (2) includes 30% pond bottom mud + 35% rice husk + 35% coco peat + 5 mL kg-1 beer residue and bio-organic-rich soil (3) 30% bottom mud soil pond + 35% rice husk + 35% coco peat + Bacillus subtilis 108 cfu.g-1 resulted in increasing the content of available nitrogen, available phosphorus, and exchangeable potassium compared to control organic-rich soil (1), without adding beer residue and beneficial microorganisms. Comparing three types of composted organic soil, bio-organic-rich soil (3) significantly increased mustard green yield compared to organic-rich soil (1) and (2). Applying bio-organic compost soil (3) with an amount of 10 tons.ha-1, without NPK inorganic fertilizer led to increase highest vegetable yield (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, amendament of bio- organic compost soil (2) and (1) needs to be combined with 25% and 50% of the recommended NPK fertilizer to achieve equivalent mustard green yields. The Nitrate content in vegetables in bio- organic-rich soil treatments combined with 25-50% NPK fertilizer is below the threshold affecting health.

The research aimed to produce activated carbon from coconut husks and to evaluate its effectiveness in removing Iron(II) ions in water. Activated carbon from coconut husks was synthesized in a low oxygen environment using a furnace at temperatures of 650°C and 900°C for 4 hours, followed by activation with 10% H3PO4 and 15% KOH. The activated carbon was sieved to a specific particle size and had a density of 0.5968 g/cm3. The efficiency of the activated carbon in adsorbing Iron(II) ions from water was evaluated in the laboratory by measuring the adsorption capacity at different concentrations.
