  • Pulmonary Tb Among Myanmar Migrants in Samut Sakhon Province, Thailand: a Problem Or Not for the Tb Control Program?
    SOUTHEAST ASIAN J TROP MED PUBLIC HEALTH PULMONARY TB AMONG MYANMAR MIGRANTS IN SAMUT SAKHON PROVINCE, THAILAND: A PROBLEM OR NOT FOR THE TB CONTROL PROGRAM? Ranee Wongkongdech1, Sompong Srisaenpang1 and Sasithorn Tungsawat2 1Department of Community Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Khon Kaen University, Khon Kaen; 2The Office of Disease Prevention and Control 6 Khon Kaen Province, Department of Disease Control, Ministry of Public Health, Nonthaburi, Thailand Abstract. Most transnational migrant workers in Thailand are from Myanmar, a country with a high tuberculosis prevalence. We investigated the prevalence of suspected pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) among Myanmar migrants in communi- ties of Mueang District, Samut Sakhon Province, Thailand. Symptom screening for those with a productive cough of more than 2 weeks was conducted by face-to-face home interviews with 4,874 participants aged at least 15 years. Most subjects (75%) were aged 15-34 years (75%), 52% were male and 60% were mar- ried. Subjects typically lived with fellow nationals in crowded, poorly ventilated apartments or row houses. Ten subjects had suspected TB, giving a prevalence rate of 0.2%. Ninety-seven percent were working in Thailand legally but 80% had no health insurance. None had sought community health services; all preferred self- medication and private clinics due to stigma associated with TB, medication costs and health center waiting times. Providing information about health insurance and introducing TB prevention and control in this group should be considered. Further studies are needed to develop a TB control program and communicable disease surveillance among migrant communities, in Thailand. Keywords: pulmonary tuberculosis, prevalence, symptom screening, Myanmar migrant workers, Thailand INTRODUCTION source of most of Thailand’s transnational migrant workforce and has a 0.384% inci- Thailand ranks in the top 22 tuber- dence and 0.525% prevalence for TB (Bu- culosis (TB) prevalence countries world- reau of Tuberculosis, 2011).

  • Trace Elements in Marine Sediment and Organisms in the Gulf of Thailand
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Review Trace Elements in Marine Sediment and Organisms in the Gulf of Thailand Suwalee Worakhunpiset Department of Social and Environmental Medicine, Faculty of Tropical Medicine, Mahidol University, 420/6 Ratchavithi Rd, Bangkok 10400, Thailand; [email protected]; Tel.: +66-2-354-9100 Received: 13 March 2018; Accepted: 13 April 2018; Published: 20 April 2018 Abstract: This review summarizes the findings from studies of trace element levels in marine sediment and organisms in the Gulf of Thailand. Spatial and temporal variations in trace element concentrations were observed. Although trace element contamination levels were low, the increased urbanization and agricultural and industrial activities may adversely affect ecosystems and human health. The periodic monitoring of marine environments is recommended in order to minimize human health risks from the consumption of contaminated marine organisms. Keywords: trace element; environment; pollution; sediment; gulf of Thailand 1. Introduction Environmental pollution is an urgent concern worldwide [1]. Pollutant contamination can exert adverse effects on ecosystems and human health [2]. Trace elements are one type of pollutant released into the environment, and metal contamination levels are rising. The main sources of trace elements are natural activities such as volcanic eruptions and soil erosion, and human activities such as industrial production, waste disposal, the discharge of contaminated wastewater, the inappropriate management of electronic waste (e-waste), and the application of fertilizers in agriculture [3–7]. Once trace elements are released into the environment, they can be dispersed by the wind and deposited in soil and bodies of water, accumulating in marine sediments [8,9].
