  • Surveillance of Imported Bancroftian Filariasis After Two-Year Multiple-Dose Diethylcarbamazine Treatment
    SOUTHEAST ASIAN J TROP MED PUBLIC HEALTH SURVEILLANCE OF IMPORTED BANCROFTIAN FILARIASIS AFTER TWO-YEAR MULTIPLE-DOSE DIETHYLCARBAMAZINE TREATMENT Surachart Koyadun1 and Adisak Bhumiratana2 1Office of Disease Prevention and Control 11 (Nakhon Si Thammarat), Department of Disease Control, Ministry of Public Health, Nakhon Si Thammarat; 2Department of Parasitology, Faculty of Public Health, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand Abstract. Myanmar migrants are at increased risk for nocturnally periodic Wuchereria bancrofti causing imported bancroftian filariasis. They have a significant influence on the effectiveness of diethylcar- bamazine (DEC) mass treatment at the provincial level in the National Program to Eliminate Lym- phatic Filariasis (PELF) during the fiscal years (FY) 2002-2006, in Thailand. Two oral doses of DEC 6 mg/kg are given twice a year to the eligible Myanmar migrants (≥2 years old). A 300 mg DEC provo- cation test is given once a year to all Myanmar migrants with work permits. Effectiveness evaluation parameters, such as cumulative index (CI) and the effectiveness ratio (ER), were obtained after 2 years of the multiple-dose DEC treatment program in Ranong Province, Southern Thailand. By cross- sectional night blood surveys at the end of FY 2003 in two districts of Ranong Province, the microfi- larial positive rates (MPR) were 0.8% and 1.2% for Mueang Ranong and Kra Buri, respectively. The MPR in the agricultural (1.5%) and industrial (0.4%) occupations were not significantly different from each other. Our findings suggest that most untreated microfilaremics working in agriculture, with short-term residency in Thailand, may have delayed multiple-dose DEC treatment.

  • Remote Sensing for Mangrove Landscape Pattern Identification on the Coast of Ranong, Thailand
    Kasetsart J. (Nat. Sci.) 47 : 182 - 190 (2013) Remote Sensing for Mangrove Landscape Pattern Identification on the Coast of Ranong, Thailand Puvadol Doydee1 and Monton Anongponyoskun2,* ABSTRACT The mangrove landscape in the Ranong coastal ecosystem provides habitat and niches for many aquatic animals. It also plays an important role in shoreline protection and serves as a livelihood source for millions of people. This study was conducted to identify and determine the pattern of mangrove patches and their species by using remotely sensed data and field methods, respectively. The point- centered quarter method was used for mangrove vegetation inventory. The results revealed that Mueng district had the highest number of mangrove patches. The smallest number of patches was identified in Kra Buri district. Most of the patches were clumped and elongated with a medium or large size. In total, 19 mangrove species were identified with 7 dominant species—namely, Avicennia marina, A. officinalis, Bruguiera parviflora, Ceriops decandra, C. tagal, Rhizophora apiculata and R. mucronata. The results provide useful information for mangrove habitat restoration and coastal landscape planning in Ranong province. The dominant species of mangrove found in the area could be promoted for mangrove rehabilitation. Keywords: remote sensing mangrove landscape, coastal ecosystem, Ranong INTRODUCTION Buot, 2010). In addition, they provide protection for habitats which are suitable as breeding and Mangroves are a unique ecosystem, nursery grounds for many species of shrimp, crab, linking the terrestrial and ocean ecosystems.

The cave was made known because it was mentioned in a legend related to the first ruler of Kra (Kra Buri), Phra Kaeo Korop, whose former name was Nai Kaeo Thanabat. The legend goes that a Nakhon Si Thammarat resident Nai Kaeo had caught a magnificant gold-color hawksbill sea turtle. He offered this rare creature to the Chumphon ruler, who then presented it to a late Ayutthaya king. For this good deed, Nai Kaeo was awarded an important post of Ranong ruler. The 2017 traditional Thum Phra Khayang Fair took place on January 27-29. The main features were three. First, it was about the legend of the Mueang Kra ruler Phra Kaeo Korop. But this year they did not hold a parade, usually organized by the Tambon Nam Jued Municipality. Instead, the Tambon Lam Liang Administration Organization initiated a big rite of paying homage to the first ruler, at the Po Ta Luang Kaeo Monument. Second, they emphasized the ecotourism promotion of the cave and its mangrove natural trail. The third emphasis was on the preservation of the local manorah stage performance.
