    causal relationship model of urban environmental factors affecting SWB. The study used a cross-sectional method based on questionnaire surveys of 389 Japanese residing in Bangkok, Thailand. The surveys were conducted during 15 July-15 August 2024. SWB... via PHS and SS. NEP indirectly affected AWB via SQ and PS. The results point to urban environmental factors as important factors which could affect health-related factors and social factors, and finally constitute to the SWB of Japanese workers

    (2017-12-01) Pantitcha Outapa; Jaeraya Ruangkawsakun; Waewta Khantee; Sarawut Thepanondh; Mahidol University; Center of Excellence on Environmental Health and Toxicology (EHT)
    © 2017, Gheorghe Asachi Technical University of Iasi, Romania. All rights reserved. Average emission factors of air toxic compounds, emitted from motorcycles in Bangkok, Thailand were analyzed using the IVE (International Vehicle Emission) model... the average emission factors of air toxics from motorcycles were greatly reduced by the replacement of engine technology from the carburetor system with the electronically controlled fuel injection system. Improvement of fuel quality standard (from EURO II

    investigated. This study explores the impact of environmental factors on the frequency and severity of breakthrough cancer pain (BTCP) in the home context from the perspective of patients with advanced cancer and their primary family caregiver. Methods: A... examined the relationship between environmental factors with: 1) individually reported pain episodes and 2) overall pain trends in a 24-hour time window. Machine learning models were developed to explore how environmental factors may predict BTCP episodes

    measured SR and some environmental factors including soil temperature (ST), soil moisture (SM), and organic matter content (OM) in three successional tropical forests in both wet and dry periods. We also analyzed the relationships between SR... of SR to environmental factors varied temporally and across forest succession. Nevertheless, these findings are still preliminary and call for detailed investigations on SR and its variations with environmental factors in Southeast Asian tropical forests
