  • Association of Environmental Factors and High HFMD Occurrence In
    Laor et al. BMC Public Health (2020) 20:1829 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-020-09905-w RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Association of environmental factors and high HFMD occurrence in northern Thailand Pussadee Laor1* , Tawatchai Apidechkul1,2*, Siriyaporn Khunthason1,2, Vivat Keawdounglek1, Suntorn Sudsandee1, Krailak Fakkaew1 and Weerayuth Siriratruengsuk1 Abstract Background: The major population vulnerable to hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) is children aged less than 5 years, particularly those who are cared for at day care centers (DCCs). This study aimed to assess the associations of environmental and sanitation factors with high HFMD occurrence rates in DCCs of northern Thailand. Methods: A case-control study was used to gather information from caregivers and local government administrative officers. DCCs in areas with high and low HFMD occurrence rates were the settings for this study. A validated questionnaire was used to collect environmental and sanitation information from the DCCs. In-depth interviews were used to collect information from selected participants who were working at DCCs and from local government administrative officers on the HFMD capacity and prevention and control strategies in DCCs. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the associations between many environmental factors and HFMD at the α = 0.05 significance level while the content analysis was used to extract information from the interviews. Results: Two variables were found to be associated with a high rate of HFMD occurrence: the number of sinks available in restrooms and the DCC size. Children attending DCCs that did not meet the standard in terms of the number of sinks in restrooms had a greater chance of contracting HFMD than children who were attending DCCs that met the standard (AOR = 4.21; 95% CI = 1.13–15.04).

    CHAPTER 6 Regional Development of the Golden and Emerald Triangle Areas: Thai Perspective Nucharee Supatn This chapter should be cited as: Supatn, Nucharee, 2012. “Regional Development of the Golden and Emerald Triangle Areas: Thai Perspective.” In Five Triangle Areas in The Greater Mekong Subregion, edited by Masami Ishida, BRC Research Report No.11, Bangkok Research Center, IDE- JETRO, Bangkok, Thailand. CHAPTER 6 REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE GOLDEN AND EMERALD TRIANGLE AREAS: THAI PERSPECTIVES Nucharee Supatn INTRODUCTION Regarding international cooperation in the Greater Mekong Sub-region, two triangle areas of the three bordering countries also exist in Thailand. The first is known as the “Golden Triangle” of Myanmar, Lao PDR, and Thailand. It was known as the land of opium and the drug trade in a previous era. The second, the “Emerald Triangle,” includes areas of Cambodia, Lao PDR, and Thailand. In addition, there is also the “Quadrangle Area” of China, Lao PDR, Myanmar, and Thailand which is an extension of the Golden Triangle. Though there is no border between China and Thailand, there is cooperation in trading, drug and criminal control, and also the development of regional infrastructure, especially in the North-South Economic Corridor (NSEC) and the 4th Thai-Laos Friendship Bridge which is currently under construction. Figure 1 shows the location of the two triangles. The circled area indicates the Golden Triangle, which is located in the upper-north of Thailand, whereas the Emerald Triangle is in the northeastern region of the country. However, as these two triangles are located in different regions of Thailand with different characteristics and contexts, the discussions of each region are presented separately.

This study aimed to estimate the prevalence and to determine the factors associated with alcohol use among Akha and Lahu hill tribe youths in Chiang Rai, Thailand. Methods: An analytic cross-sectional design was applied to obtain key data on these associations. The study sample was Akha and Lahu hill tribe youths aged 15-24 years who lived in 30 selected hill tribe villages. A questionnaire was developed from an in-depth interview and group discussion and tested for validation and reliability before use. Descriptive statistics were used to demonstrate the general characteristics, and Chi-square test and logistic regression were used to detect associations between variables at α=0.05. Results: A total of 737 subjects were recruited into the study, of whom 50.0% were Lahu. The average age was 17.9 years, 80.7% were single, 71.1% were Christian, 65.9% graduated secondary school, and 65.7% had their major source of income from their parents.

    N. Sirimongkonlertkul / GMSARN International Journal 11 (2017) 45 - 50 Nion Sirimongkonlertkul, Witoon Prommee, Sarawut Pongleerat and Vivarad Phonekeo Abstract— This paper studies the outcomes of new application on smart phones to solve smoke haze problem in Chiang Rai. In this application, there are three main parts including web server,android application, and users. For the web server, the automatic filter program downloads the hotspot data of only Chiang Rai every five minutes from the Earth Science Data and Information System (ESDIS) of NASA. After that, the web server updates the new hotspot data in the application installed on smart phones. This proposed application is tested between 1 January 2016 and 30 April 2016 by Protected areas regional office 15 of National Park, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Department. If the users receive warning voice from the hotspot monitoring application on their smart phone, they will plan to control fire area in this application for surveying. In surveyed results, this application can show the number of hotspots, geographic location of hotspots, land use map of burned area and 99 percent of detected hotspots are true fire. The top number of 3 hotspots is 322 in Mae Suai district. The average PM10 of Muean Chiang Rai and Mae Sai stations are to 128 µg/m and 186.74 µg/m3 which are higher than the normal AQI (Air Quantity Index of the United States Environment 3 3 Protection Agency (EPA), 120 µg/m ) in April 2016. Moreover, the maximun PM10 is to 317 µg/m at Mae Sai station. The moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) is used to study hotspots in Chiang Rai.
