Publication Metadata only Towards a conceptual framework to support one-health research for policy on emerging zoonoses(2011-04-01) Richard Coker; Jonathan Rushton; Sandra Mounier-Jack; Esron Karimuribo; Pascal Lutumba; Dominic Kambarage; Dirk U. Pfeiffer; Katharina Stärk; Mark Rweyemamu; Mahidol University; London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine; Royal Veterinary College University of London; Sokoine University of AgricultureIn the past two decades there has been a growing realisation that the livestock sector was in a process of change, resulting from an expansion of intensive animal production systems and trade to meet a globalised world's increasing demand... for livestock products. One unintended consequence has been the emergence and spread of transboundary animal diseases and, more specifically, the resurgence and emergence of zoonotic diseases. Concurrent with changes in the livestock sector, contactItem Metadata only A New Consistent Concept Between the I-change Model and the Transtheoretical Outcome to Imply the Leading Guideline of Depression Behavior Health Change Using Social Media(2024-01-01) Nusawat P.; Leelasantitham A.; Nusawat P.; Mahidol Universityand treatment for patients with depression have become unprecedentedly important. Objective: The main objective of this study was to present a new, consistent conceptual model for changing the health behavior of patients with depression using social media... by combining factors from the I-change model theory with the transtheoretical outcome of behavioral health change and to present guidelines that have implications for practice. Methods: The research design is quantitative, in which data are collected from aItem Metadata only Preeclampsia and eclampsia: the conceptual evolution of a syndrome(2022-02-01) Erez O.; Mahidol Universityof the central nervous system, recognized by the occurrence of seizures (ie, eclampsia)—to the present time when preeclampsia is conceptualized primarily as a vascular disorder. We review the epidemiologic data that led to the recommendation to use diastolic... was used for several decades. The search for putative toxins has challenged investigators for more than a century, and a growing body of evidence suggests that products of an ischemic or a stressed placenta are responsible for the vascular changesItem Metadata only A Place-Based Conceptual Model (PBCM) of Neotricula aperta/Schistosoma mekongi habitat before and after dam construction in the Lower Mekong River(2023-10-01) Lanza G.R.; Upatham S.; Chen A.; Mahidol Universityand is unique in providing the only description of the river shoreline habitat before any dams were built and any alteration of the natural flow regime was in place. Aggregating current information in a Place-Based Conceptual Model (PBCM) as an organizing... with current updates on the potential impacts of climate change and dams with flow-related snail habitat characteristics, including sediment drift and water quality. The application of the PBCM to describe and compare descriptive information on currentItem Metadata only Alcohol use, economic development, and health burden: A conceptual framework(2024-08-17) Rehm J.; Rovira P.; Shield K.D.; Sornpaisarn B.; Thang V.V.; Room R.; Rehm J.; Mahidol Universityoutweighing the impact of higher alcohol consumption. Without any change in alcohol consumption, both alcohol-attributable and all-cause mortality are substantially improved with economic development—but an increase in consumption diminishes these benefitsPublication Metadata only Nutri-action Analysis as a Research Strategy to Improve Nutrition Information, Education and Communication Interventions in Asia(1996-09-01) Suttilak Smitasiri; Sakorn Dhanamitta; Mahidol UniversityWhat is lacking in nutrition information, education and communication (IEC) work today is accurate knowledge about the processes which bring about beneficial nutritional behavior changes. In this paper, Nutri-action Analysis is proposed as a... mechanism for nutrition planners to gain this knowledge and seek ways to improve the effectiveness of nutrition IEC interventions. It suggests that a more holistic and dynamic approach is necessary to conceptualize nutrition IEC and increase itsPublication Metadata only Framing risk in pandemic influenza policy and control(2012-08-01) Theresa Seetoh; Marco Liverani; Richard Coker; Mahidol University; London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicineperceptions about the characteristics and inevitability of a pandemic. Following the analysis of these cases, a conceptual framework is presented to illustrate ways in which changing relationships between risk assessment, risk perception and risk managementItem Metadata only Antimicrobial therapies for chronic pain (part 1): analgesic mechanisms(2023-01-01) Wang E.J.; Karri J.; Tontisirin N.; Cohen S.P.; Mahidol Universityeffects, including for nociceptive and neuropathic pain symptoms, and affective components of pain. The analgesic mechanisms of antimicrobials are indirect, but might be conceptualized into two broad categories: 1) the reduction of the infectious burden... and associated pro-inflammatory processes; and 2) the inhibition of signaling processes (e.g., enzymatic and cytokine activity) necessary for nociception and maladaptive neuroplastic changes via off-target effects (unintended binding sites). For the formerItem Metadata only Transforming Nepal’s primary health care delivery system in global health era: addressing historical and current implementation challenges(2022-12-01) Adhikari B.; Mishra S.R.; Schwarz R.; Mahidol Universityof diseases, Nepal echoes the progressive increase in life expectancy, changes in diseases patterns, including the current impact of COVID-19. Nepal’s health system is also accommodating recent federalization, and thus it is critical to explore how the primary... health care system is grappling the challenges amidst these changes. In this review, we conducted a narrative synthesis of literature to explore the challenges related to transformation of Nepal’s primary health care delivery system to meet the demandsItem Metadata only Empowering village health volunteers in Ubon Ratchathani Province through experiential learning models: Enhancing understanding of hyperglycemia and kidney health(2026-05-01) Wongprasert B.; Jittam P.; Siriwat P.; Sajjapanroj S.; Wongprasert B.; Mahidol UniversityThis study investigated the impact of integrating experiential learning activities into a physical learning model to enhance conceptual understanding of hyperglycemia and its effects on kidney function. Participants were local residents engaged... approach was employed. Forty participants attended a one-hour training session incorporating experiential learning into the physical model. Pre-and post-tests measured conceptual understanding. Perceptions were gathered through a 5-point Likert-scale
