title: TiO2 nanoparticles coated forward osmosis membranes for treatment of industrial textile effluent

description: Textile wastewater occur as demanding water bodies to be treated by membrane separation due to the complex composition and presence of reactive constituents such as heavy metals and salts as well as nutrients, e.g. nitrogen, sulphate and phosphate. Numerous combination of osmosis process with photocatalysts has been experimentally conceived for the water and wastewater treatment and reuse of textile wastewater. The present work was devoted to study the operating feasibility using photocatalyst as TiO2 nano-particles were coated onto two commercially available FO membranes, a cellulose triacetate (CTA) membrane and an aquaporin (AqP) membrane through a specially designed 3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate–polymethyl methacrylate–bromide (MEMO–PMMA–Br) monomer chain as an alternative forward osmosis treatment method of conventionally treated wastewater discharged from textile plants. Effects of dye concentration, dissolved ions and TOC and reactive dye removing were studied. An initial water flux (Jw) of 18.38 L m−2 h−1 with a dye rejection of 99.9% has been demonstrated by using 1 M NaCl as the draw solution and synthetic textile wastewater containing reactive textile dyes (black, blue and red) 200, 400, 600, 800 ppm, inorganic salts, varying amounts of PVA and HCOH as interferences in the feed under the FO mode. The water flux of both membranes and the performance of the CTA membrane were greatly enhanced after surface modification. The experiments also show that CTA membrane gives higher water flux than aquaporin membrane for forward osmosis operation of synthetic textile wastewater. The increase in water flux for aquaporin is about 5.13% than CTA.

title: Systems biology of human cells responded to influenza B virus infection

description: Influenza B virus is a member of Orthomyxoviridae family which can cause influenza in human and affect to worldwide health problem. Systems biology is the computational modeling of molecular systems which is useful to predict how these biological systems change over time and under different conditions. In this study the multiomics was used to study human cellular response to influenza B virus infection. The transcriptome including mRNAs, lncRNAs and miRNAs and proteome were investigated by high-throughput technologies such as next-generation sequencing and mass spectrometry. The results showed that in human cells infected with influenza B virus, transcriptome including mRNAs, lncRNAs and miRNAs and proteome were changed. Some genes were up-regulated responding to the influenza B virus infection for both Victoria and Yamagata lineages. Some were lineage specific. Whereas there was no similar down-regulated genes for both lineages. The MX1 genes was found to be up-regulated in both mRNAs and protein level in both Victoria and Yamagata lineages. For lncRNAs, the response to influenza B virus infection seems to be lineage specifically. The miRNAs profiling also showed the up-regulated and down-regulated miRNAs which were predicted to target several of human genes. In addition, the up-regulated miR-30e-3p was selected for functional study and found that it can directly target viral NA and NP inhibiting influenza B virus production.

title: Design of plantwide control structure of double effect water/lithium bromide absorption chiller

description: Alternative control structures for a parallel double effect aqueous lithium bromide absorption chiller, operated in two modes of operation, has been designed using Skogastad’s plantwide control procedure. In on-demand mode, two complete decentralized control structures with proportional integral (PI) controllers and one structure with a two inputs – two outputs model predictive controller (MPC) were proposed. Their performance was evaluated using MATLAB-Simulink dynamic simulation. The results varied depended on type of disturbance, but overall, the structure with MPC controller provided slightly better results with less liquid holdup changes and faster setting time in average. For on-supply mode, two self-optimizing control variables obtained from minimum singular value (MSV) and null space method were implemented to a decentralized control structure. In general, both variables were able to reduce majority of loss due to change in optimal process conditions. Nevertheless, the null space control variable provided slightly better results for main disturbances, which are cooling utility temperature and amount of heat input.

title: Delay in health seeking behavior among tb patients in Chiang Rai province, Thailand

description: The aim of this study was to determine the pattern of health seeking behavior and factors associated with delay in health seeking behavior among tuberculosis patients in border hospitals, Chiang Rai province, Thailand. A cross-sectional study was conducted in four biggest border hospitals in Chiang Rai province, Thailand during May to July 2018 among 103 identified tuberculosis cases. Data was collected by a structured questionnaire on patients’ general characteristics, HIV status, distance from health service, health seeking treatment with onset symptoms, and patient delay. Collected data was analyzed in SPSS 22. Both descriptive and inferential statistics was employed in data analysis. Chi- square test was applied for the test of association between anemia and designated variables. Later, the variables with p-value &lt;0.20 obtained in bivariate was processed for multivariate analysis and considered significant with p-value &lt;0.05. Finally, adjusted odd ratio (AOR) with 95% of confidence interval (CI) was reported. The study found that most of the participants were age more than 60 years old (27.2%), with 48.5% of the patients reported to have no educational background, and 61.2% were single. Thai nationality was found to be the highest nationality of the study’s participants with 61.2%. Interestingly, the prevalence of delay in health seeking behavior among the study’s participants was high at 65.1%. Government hospital and self-medication were mostly presented for health seeking behavior at 40.8% and 20.4%, respectively. From the result, the factors that significantly related to the delay in health seeking behavior among TB patients in Chiang Rai province were HIV status (AOR = 6.806, 95%CI: 1.174-39.462), Nationality (AOR = 2.824, 95%CI: 1.041-7.660) and duration to health facility (AOR = 18.467, 95% CI: 1.257-271.414). The study showed that delay in appropriate health seeking among TB patients in Chiang Rai province, Thailand were high. Therefore, further intervention emphasizes on the improvement of appropriate knowledge of TB and health seeking behavior to strengthen the TB control.

title: Prevalence and factors associated with anemia among pregnant women attending AMDA hospital of Eastern Nepal

description: Anemia in pregnancy is a global public health problem, affecting nearly 40% of the pregnant women worldwide. The higher burden of anemia was found in Nepal with 46% prevalence among pregnant women. This study is a health facility-based cross-sectional study carried out from September to October 2018. A total of 420 pregnant women of reproductive age group (18-49 years) attending the antenatal check-up in AMDA Hospital of Damak, Jhapa were recruited in this study. Data was collected through a validated semi-structured questionnaire. Collected data was analyzed in SPSS 22. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were employed in data analysis. Chi-square test was applied for the test of association between anemia and designated variables. Later, the variables with a p-value &lt;0.20 obtained in bivariate was processed for multivariate analysis and considered significant with p-value &lt;0.05. Finally, the adjusted odds ratio (AOR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) was reported.The prevalence of anemia was 42.1% in which 13.6% were severely anemic, 40.7% moderate and 45.8% were mild anemic. The study explored age group &lt;20 and between 30-34 years (AOR 5.499, 95%CI: 1.172-25.792), (AOR 0.175, 95%CI: 0.042-0.735), pregnant with other religion (Buddhist, Christian, Kirant, Muslim) (AOR 3.217, 95%CI: 1.152-8.982), Janajati ethnicity (AOR 0.337, 95%CI: 0.134-0.848) were the factors associated with anemia. In addition, pregnant women working as laborer/peasant farmer (AOR 3.267, 95%CI: 1.121-9.522), Insufficient kitchen garden products (AOR 10.648, 95%CI: 2.702-41.961), vegetables brought rarely and sometimes (AOR 7.042, 95%CI: 1.049-47.277), (AOR 7.653, 95%CI: 2.308-25.371) had higher likelihood of having anemia. Correspondingly, vegetarian (AOR 6.264, 95%CI 1.646-23.830), DGLV once a week (AOR 8.139, 95%CI 1.714-38.680), no dietary diversity (AOR 6.741, 95%CI: 2.528-17.975) and prolong menstruation (AOR 2.696, 95%CI: 1.351-5.380) were independently associated with anemia as well.The findings identified the necessity of awareness on nutrition and the importance of dietary diversity to pregnant women. Similarly, adequate counseling by health workers on preventing anemia during ANC visit is highly recommended.-

title: Prevalence and factors associated with safe sex behaviors among adolescent vocational students in Nakhon Ratchasima Province, Thailand

description: Background: Premature sexual intercourse among adolescent can be linked to HIV and sexual transmitted diseases and unintended pregnancy. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and factors associated with safe sex behaviors among adolescent vocational students in Nakhn Ractchasima province, Thailand.Methods: A cross-sectional analytical study(n=332) was conducted from August-October 2018 by using self-administered questionnaire. Bivariate (Chi-square test) and multivariate analysis ( logistic regression) were performed to identified the factors associated with safe sex behaviors among adolescent vocational students in Nakhon Ratchasima province, Thailand.Results: finding revealed that the participants were male 57.8% and female 42.2%with an average age of 16.80 years (±1.7). Approximately 60.% of male and 50% of female had experience of sexual intercourse , with their first experience of sexual intercourse at the average age of 15 years old. Most respondents 63.1 % used a condom and 63.6% used contraception in their latest sexual intercourse. About 41.9% consumed alcohol and 15% was due to substance abused. Sexual intercourse among adolescents vocational students were significantly associated with knowledge of contraception (OR = 0.298, 95%CI= 0.47 -0.57), Positive attitude towards reproductive health (OR=0.165,95%CI= 3.32-6.71), with low risk behavior (OR = 0.45, 95%CI= 0.219-0.911), and high risk behaviors (OR = 0.24, 95%CI= 0.09-0.58). Contraceptive used in the latest sexual intercourse was significant association with cues to action (OR=0.43, 95%CI= 0.22-0.86) Conclusion: The study highlights the situation of safe sex behaviors among adolescent vocational students in Nakhon Ratchasima. It is recommended that sex education should be improved within the curriculum and active campaigning in schools should be promoted.

title: Impacts of communication technology and social media on intergenerational relationships in Bangkok

description: The objective of this research is to explore how communication technology and social media affects the intergenerational relationships between older persons and their adult children in Bangkok. Using Bengston and Schrader’s (Bengtson and McChesney 1998) measurement framework for intergenerational relationships, this study examines how communication technology, namely the smart phone and its accompanying applications, Line and Facebook, has impacted the relationship between thirty older persons and their adult children. Purposive sampling was used to select participants from three elderly associations located in different neighbourhoods around Bangkok, data was collected using semi-structured interviews and data was analysed via thematic analysis. The results of this study indicate that while the use of such technological tools may bring about certain negative impacts, when utilised efficiently and to its full potential, these innovations could enrich and foster relationships. Given that older persons are able to overcome the barriers that prohibit their willingness to adopt these tools, data results illustrate that rather than dividing the generations, access to these communicative technological tools have been shown to decrease the generation gap between older persons and their children.

title: The construction of images of "Vietnam" in contemporary Thai writings

description: This dissertation aims to examine the images of Vietnam portrayed in contemporary Thai writings (1990s-2015) and to analyse the construction of such images. Document research, textual analysis and interview reveal three outstanding images of Vietnam: (1) “Vietnam is a country of wars”, which is initially constructed from old impressions about the Vietnam War of the Thai writers then are soon replaced by their first-hand experience in Vietnam with new aspects of the serious consequences of the wars as well as post-war struggles. (2) Next, Vietnam is in transition to modernity and integration, which is represented by the romanticised traditionality that has difficulty finding a stance in a globalised world, and on the other hand, the active, rapid process of economic development, socio-cultural changes, adjustment of views and policies. (3) Last, Vietnamese people are fighters that can keep their spirit strong both in the wartime and in the present.Compared with previous periods of time, the contemporary images of Vietnam are no longer affected by the nationalist mindset of the Early Rattanakosin Era and the Cold War Era. Within the contemporary period, the images also have dynamics as a result of a number of factors including the new context of eased atmosphere and warm relations since the early 1990s, the participation of more varied stakeholders in the image construction, and the first-hand experience and the sources of data the Thai writers get during their travels. In general, contemporary Thai writings bring a better understanding of Vietnam and Vietnamese people, as well as reveal Thai perspectives on Vietnam and their own country.

title: The role of ancestral halls and ancestral worship in Chinese clan associations in Thailand as forms of cultural integration in the age of globalization

description: This dissertation focuses on studying the relationship between the ancestral hall and ancestral worship of Thai-Chinese clan associations in the context of contemporary Thai society, Thai local culture and the era of globalization. The research data mainly derives from the journals of the Thai-Chinese communities, news reports, on-site investigations and interviews.This study indicates that the Thai-Chinese had been living in Thai society and they had established Chinese traditional cultural practices in Thailand and enriched the culture of Thailand. With the development of contemporary Thai society, Thai-Chinese community associations have been transformed into non-governmental organizations and have become part of the Thai NGO network. The income of Thai-Chinese clan associations mainly derived from the contributions of the members of their councils who relied on bureaucratic and community patronage system. The Lim Clansmen Association of Thailand is introduced as an example to analyze its management of human resources, finance and affairs in the typical Chinese clan association in Thailand from 1990s to the present. The architectures of ancestral hall and ancestral worship rites of the Xu Clan Association of Thailand are used as examples to illustrate how the Thai-Chinese ancestral halls and ancestral worship have mixed with local Thai Culture.Finally, this dissertation proves that the ancestral halls and ancestral worship in clan associations in Thailand serve as an active platform for promoting communication between the Thai-Chinese in the age of globalization from three aspects—the relationship between Thai-Chinese and their ancestral homes after 1978, China’s influence on Thai and Thai-Chinese ancestor worship, and the contribution of Thai-Chinese clans to the world of Chinese clan associations.

title: Investor’s hindsight effect and true timing ability of tax saving mutual funds

description: This paper analyze the cash flow timing ability of mutual fund investors both non-tax-saving and tax-saving funds which have constraints such as lock-up period to block investor’s ability to make cash flow timing, after controlling for the hindsight effect. We analyze the sample of Thai mutual funds in the period of 2006-2017.We find that investors have bad timing ability and make return underperformance. The tax-saving funds that have investment constraints to block investor’s timing ability have better timing ability and tends to have smart money effect and make return over performance. In addition, volatility affect investors to increase the return under or over performance based on investors have smart or dump money effects. Lastly, large asset under management affects investors are hard to make cash flow timing.

title: The effects of increased transparency on market liquidity : empirical evidence from Thai bond market

description: To increase transparency, Thai Bond Market Association (ThaiBMA) issues the notification of disclosure of transaction information and control for post-trade deferred publication. Dealers are required to report all required trading information to ThaiBMA within 30 minutes after execution for public dissemination. The rules are issued for improved the market efficiency and increased customer activity. Moreover, ThaiBMA issues the penalty for Late Transaction to punish dealer. However, increasing transparency leads to an improvement on market liquidity. This paper examines the effect of post-trade transparency on market liquidity in the Thai bond market, measured by bid-offer quoted in terms of their yield to maturity (YTM) on government bonds. The result show that there is a significant difference between the impact of increased transparency on spread. Moreover, this study shall examine the effect of delayed time on the market liquidity. However, there is not enough statistical evidence to conclude that the impact of delay time on spread is significantly differences across periods.
