Authors: Moteh Naarm , Laeheem Kasetchai 
Published: June 2024

Objective: The purpose of this research was to study factors affecting depression among first-year undergraduate students at a university in Songkhla Province.

Theoretical Framework: Psychological factors consist of Self-Esteem (X1), Life satisfaction (X2), Rumination (X3), Problem-solving (X4). Obligation factors consist of Study stress (X5), Taking responsibility for financial obligations (X6). Relationship factors consist of Relationships with friends (X7) and Relationships with family (X8).

Methods: Data was collected by surveying 180 students. The research method was a questionnaire consisting of 1) general information about the respondents 2) the Patient Health Questionnaire for Adolescents (PHQ-A) to measure levels of depression, and 3) a questionnaire on factors influencing depression, including psychological factors, obligation factors, and relationship factors. The study identified Cronbach's alpha coefficients, which are equal to 0.76 - 0.93 to analyze the average, standard deviation, Pearson correlation coefficient, and stepwise multiple regression analysis.

Results and Discussions: The results found that three factors significantly affect student depression: rumination, self-esteem, and relationship with family. Rumination and self-esteem affect student depression with statistical significance at p<.001 and the relationship with family has a significant effect on student depression at p<.01. These factors can predict 54.70% of the depression of first-year undergraduate students at a university in Songkhla Province (R2 = .547, p < .01).

Research Implications: Factors affecting depression among first-year undergraduate students at a university in Songkhla Province included self-esteem, rumination, and relationships with family.

Originality/Value: Therefore, the organizations or institutions involved in caring for students should use this as a basis for planning and monitoring depression, paying particular attention to promoting students' self-esteem, management of rumination, and building relationships with families to reduce factors affecting depression for first-year undergraduate students effectively.

ABSTRACT

Objective.

To assess changes in reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health (RMNCAH) in Haiti from August 2018 to September 2021, before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods.

A retrospective study using surveillance data from the Haitian Unique Health Information System, examining two periods: pre- and peri-COVID-19 pandemic. Health indicators at the national level in the two periods were compared using two-sample t-tests for proportions, and average absolute monthly changes were calculated using variance-weighted regression.

Results.

There was a statistically significant decline in the proportion of most of the indicators assessed from the pre- to the peri-COVID-19 pandemic period. However, the most affected indicators were the proportions of pregnant women with four antenatal care visits, with five antenatal care visits or more, and those who received a second dose of tetanus vaccine, which decreased by over 4 percentage points during the two periods. Likewise, the proportions of children who received diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (DTaP), BCG, polio, pentavalent, and rotavirus vaccines also all declined by over 8 percentage points. In contrast, pneumococcal conjugate vaccine increased by over 4 percentage points. A statistically significant decrease was also observed in the average absolute monthly changes of several reproductive and child health indicators assessed.

Conclusions.

The COVID-19 pandemic may have contributed to the decline observed in several RMNCAH indicators in Haiti. However, the role played by the sociopolitical crisis and control exercised by armed groups over the population in the last three years cannot be ruled out.

Effect of purified Calotropis gigantea latex protease on the cheese quality
Authors: Shrestha Nabindra Kumar , Maskey Bunty 
Published: June 2024

Cheesemaking has been relying solely on chymosin for so long. But factors like increased cheese production, diminishing supply of chymosin as well as religious and dietary limitations have been hindering the demand-production balance of cheese in the world. Hence, the primary objective of this study was to utilize the three-phase partitioning (TPP) purified Calotropis gigantea latex protease in cheesemaking. The cheese prepared using purified protease was compared with chymosin cheese for physicochemical, sensorial, textural, and microbiological evaluation. The optimum conditions for purified protease from response surface methodology (RSM) analysis were 6.25 milk pH and 45℃ milk temperature. The physicochemical parameters (moisture content, protein, ash, calcium, salt content, and pH) of cheeses prepared from latex protease and chymosin were significantly different (p<0.05). The yield of latex protease cheese was significantly higher (p<0.05) than chymosin cheese. In terms of texture and aftertaste, the cheese made with latex protease had significantly lower (p<0.05) mean scores than chymosin cheese. Compared to chymosin cheese, the latex protease cheese had a generally inferior textural character, with significantly (p<0.05) lower values for hardness, chewiness, gumminess, cohesiveness, and resilience. The total viable count and Lactobacilli count of the cheeses produced with chymosin and latex protease showed a significant (p<0.05) difference. Hence, this study highlighted that the TPP purified C. gigantea latex protease could be used as a plant coagulant for cheesemaking.

Published: June 2024

Due to the significant impact of late blight (LB) (Phytophthora infestans [Mont.]) on tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.), we investigated the interaction between fungicides and this disease to understand how some plant defense mechanisms are affected over time. Following a randomized design, we evaluated the synthesis of phenolic compounds (PHE) and the activity of phenylalanine ammonium lyase (PAL), peroxidases (POX) and superoxide dismutase (SOD). The experiment involved the application of fosetyl-Al and fluoxastrobin (fungicides with dual modes of action) on healthy and infected tomato plants. LB severity was assessed weekly and leaf samples were collected at various intervals for biochemical analysis. The Kruskal-Wallis test (α = 0.05) analyzed main effects of infection, fungicide, and time on response variables, followed by Bonferroni post hoc for significant group differences and regression models to evaluate variable effects over time. The application of fungicides had no effect on enzymatic activity or PHE accumulation. While PAL and SOD activities were not significantly affected by infection, POX activity was significantly higher in healthy plants (4793.8 U g-1 fresh weight) compared to infected plants (1858.1 U g-1 fresh weight). A complex interaction between PHE accumulation in relation to LB severity and time was observed, with a notable increase in PHE levels at 50 days after transplant when disease severity was between 25 and 50%. Future studies should consider including a broader range of genotypes and isolates of P. infestans, a more extensive set of biochemical responses, and evaluations of the overexpression of genes related to plant defense.

Published: June 2024

Electric vehicles (EVs) have emerged as a key element of this paradigm shift, providing not only a means of reducing emissions but also serving as a catalyst for a fundamental re-evaluation of the transportation system and modes of transportation. There are different types of Electric Vehicles which encourage the people to shift from traditional vehicles to the former case. The advantages associated with the Electric vehicles are cost saving, easy maintenance, energy efficiency, style, government policies and in some cases the environmental concern. Many researchers focus on the reasons and perceptions of shifting from traditional vehicles to electric vehicles. The present research focuses on the perception of management students of south India towards the electric vehicles and it is found that age, gender and educational qualification don’t have any impact on the adoption process of electric vehicles in their transportation. Only the case of willingness to purchase the electric vehicle and recommendation of electric vehicle have differences with respect to educational qualification and age factors. Cost saving is the first and foremost aspect of shift from traditional vehicles to electric vehicles.
