Union of Myanmar Ministry of Health and Sports THE REPUBLIC OF THE UNION OF MYANMAR MINISTRY OF HEALTH AND SPORTS 46TH MYANMAR HEALTH RESEARCH CONGRESS Programme and Abstracts 8-12 January 2018 The Republic of the Union of Myanmar Ministry of Health and Sports 46th MYANMAR HEALTH RESEARCH CONGRESS Programme and Abstracts 8-12 January 2018 FOREWORD The 46th Myanmar Health Research Congress, organized by the Ministry of Health and Sports will be held at the Department of Medical Research with the aims of attaining the highest quality in health care by promoting research capacity strengthening of healthcare personnel and providing evidence‐based, applicable research findings to end‐users by researchers. In today’s world, we are facing the growing burden of Non‐Communicable Diseases including cancer therefore this year’s congress theme is most appropriate and timely being “To Prevent, Detect, Treat & Live with Cancer”. As we strive for Universal Health Coverage, we look forward to a healthier Myanmar where cancer is detected at early stage and all cancer patients receive quality health care and quality of life. For this to become a reality, research plays a pivotal role for making the correct decisions in cancer diagnosis and subsequent management. All researchers under the Ministry of Health and Sports felt a surge of pride as our National Health Research Policy was approved by the cabinet in September 2017. Among many important issues, to promote Ethical and Responsible Conduct of Research, to develop a national health research agenda and to establish a national health information system for avoiding duplication and redundancy as well as for promoting effective dissemination and appropriate utilization of research findings were included. For research priorities to be made systematically and duplication avoided, we have recently developed the Myanmar Health Research Registry (MHRR) website. MHRR also provides a mutual platform for communication between researchers of different fields and to generate new knowledge and opportunities to develop collaborations for research. In this year’s Myanmar Health Research Congress, a total of 110 research papers will be presented and 80 posters will be displayed by local and international researchers from many countries over the world. Furthermore, 12 symposia and 4 scientific talks will be conducted, in many diverse priority health problems in Myanmar encompassing not only early diagnosis and management of cancer but also environmental health, child and adolescent health, Universal Health Coverage, important issues by the food and drug administration such as Post Marketing Survey, enhancing quality in laboratory systems and advanced techniques in genome sequencing, medical education, implementation research, emerging infectious diseases in our region and the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance, will be presented and discussed by prominent researchers and academicians. Last but not least, we would like to take this opportunity to congratulate and applaud all researchers for their immense effort to make this year’s congress a huge success.

    UNIVERSITY OF ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE MASTER OF BANKING AND FINANCE CREDIT ACCESSIBILITY AND FARM PERFORMANCE (A CASE STUDY IN MYAN AUNG TOWNSHIP, AYEYARWADY DIVISION) THIDA OO DECEMBER 2018 ABSTRACT The study examined the relationship between agricultural credit and farm performance in Myan Aung Township, Ayeyarwady Division. Both of the primary and secondary data were used to analyze. There are 518 villages and 58 village tracts in Myan Aung Township . The random sample of 92 agricultural farmers was from 923 households of 6 village tracts which represents 10% of village tracts. Correlation and regression models are used to test whether the farm performance is affected by agricultural credit accessibility and also if there is any relationship between the two. For this study, the independent variables taken are agricultural credit accessibility of farmers and the farming characteristics of farmers: number of farmers in household and farming experience. The dependent variable is the farm performance (paddy yield per acre). There is a fairly positive correlation between all three independent variables (credit accessibility, farming experience, number of farmers in household) and farm performance (paddy yield per acre). According to the result of correlation, all three independent variables are significant at 1% level. The effect of farm experience is highest among variables on paddy yield per acres. For regression analysis, the independent variables (farm experience, number of farmers in households and credit accessibility) are positive and statistically significant with farm yield. Three variables have significantly explained 51% of the variance in paddy yield per acre. As a conclusion, agricultural credit should be provided to farmers sufficiently and timely manner.
