Abstract            :  This study aimed to 1) describe the motivation of travelers to visit Thailand as a film shooting destination by applying the concept of tourists’ motivation on repeat visits to Thailand proposed by Rittichainuwat, Qu, and Mongkhonvanit (2008), 2) identify the travel motivations of tourists in visiting film shooting location in Thailand, and 3) assess whether film can motivate people to become a specific film tourists. This study used ‘The Beach’, and ‘Lost in Thailand’ movie which was film in Thailand as a case study. The instrument used in the present study is a self-administered questionnaire. A survey with 800 questionnaires was collected in June – December, 2015 and February – April, 2016. Descriptive statistics, Independent Sample Mean T-tests, Analysis of Variances, and the structural equation modeling was employed to analyze the data.

Abstract            :  Background: A reliable objective tool using as a predictor of asthma control status could assist asthma management.

Objective: To find the parameters of forced oscillation technique (FOT) as predictors for the future loss of asthma symptom control.

Methods: Children with well-controlled asthma symptom, aged 6-12 years, were recruited for a 12-week prospective study. FOT and spirometer measures and their bronchodilator response were evaluated at baseline. The level of asthma symptom control was evaluated according to Global Initiative for Asthma.

Results: Among 68 recruited children, 41 children (60.3%) maintain their asthma control between 2 visits (group C-C), and 27 children (39.7%) lost their asthma control on the follow-up visit (group C-LC). Baseline FOT parameters, including the values of respiratory resistance at 5 Hz (R5), respiratory resistance at 20 Hz (R20), respiratory reactance at 5 Hz, area of reactance, %predicted of R5 and percentage of bronchodilator response (%∆) of R5 and R20 were significantly different between C-C and C-LC groups. In contrast, only %∆ of forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), and FEF25%-75% (forced expiratory flow 25%-75%) were significantly different between groups. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that %predicted of R5, %∆R5, %predicted of FEV1 and %∆FEV1 were the predictive factors for predicting the future loss of asthma control. The following cutoff values demonstrated the best sensitivity and specificity for predicting loss of asthma control: %predicted of R5=91.28, %∆R5=21.2, %predicted of FEV1=89.5, and %∆FEV1=7.8. The combination of these parameters predicted the risk of loss of asthma control with area under the curve of 0.924, accuracy of 83.8%.

Conclusion: Resistance FOT measures have an additive role to spirometric parameter in predicting future loss of asthma control.

Email                     :  rawid.ban@siam.edu

Abstract            : 

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to originally present the generic analytical models of memelement and inverse memelement with time-dependent memory effect.

Design/methodology/approach

The variable order forward Grünwald–Letnikov fractional derivative and the memristor and inverse memristor models proposed by Fouda et al. have been adopted as the basis. Both analytical and numerical studies have been conducted. The applications to the candidate practical memristor and inverse memelements have also been presented.

Findings

The generic analytical models of memelement and inverse memelement with time-dependent memory effect, the simplified ones for DC and AC signal-based analyses and the equations of crucial parameters have been derived. Besides the well-known opposite relationships with frequency, the Lissajous patterns of memelement and inverse memelement also use the opposite relationships with the time. The proposed models can be well applied to the practical elements.

Originality/value

To the best of the authors’ knowledge, for the first time, the models’ memelement and inverse memelement with time-dependent memory effect have been presented. A new contrast between these elements has been discovered. The resulting models are applicable to the practical elements.

Abstract            : Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) has increasingly spread worldwide in the past decade. The prevalence and characteristics of CRE in Thailand are unknown. In this study, we conducted a 2-year surveillance of CRE among 12,741 clinical isolates of Enterobacteriaceae at the largest university hospital in Thailand with molecular characterization of beta-lactamase (bla) genes, including carbapenemase genes. The CRE prevalence was 1.4%. blaKPC-13 and blaIMP-14a were the only carbapenemase genes detected among these CRE isolates. blaKPC-13 gene was found in a single isolate of Escherichia coli, Enterobacter cloacae and Citrobacter freundii, and blaIMP-14a was found in four isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae. Carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae (CRKP) isolates were resistant to multiple carbapenems at a higher ratio than other CRE species, and thus were further characterized for resistance phenotypes, bla genotypes and molecular epidemiology. Most CRKP isolates harboured multiple bla genes, especially those related to extended-spectrum beta-lactamases. Seven CRKP isolates were resistant to all tested carbapenems, and showed decreased ompK35 and/or ompK36 porin gene expression. Molecular typing of CRKP based on pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) demonstrated several unrelated clones. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) was partially concordant with PFGE results and revealed that ST340, a member of drug-resistant K. pneumoniae clonal complex 258, was the most predominant clone, followed by ST48, ST11 and ST273. The novel ST1645 was identified from this study. ST340 has neither been shown to be predominated among CRKP from other studies, nor been reported in Thailand. Therefore, it emphases a critical concern to monitor and control the spread of CRKP.

Abstract            :  A 6-year-old healthy Thai boy presented with multiple vesicles and bullae varying in size on the whole body, mostly on face and trunk for five days. The first vesicle arose on scalp while he had low-grade fever and felt headache on that day. A few days later, some vesicles progressed to large bullae containing turbid fluid or yellowish pus. Oral and genital mucosa were not involved.

Department     :

Abstract            :  Thailand has had over 30 years of experiences and development in fighting HIV/AIDS with successful results in terms of providing access to prevention, testing, antiretroviral treatment (ART) and care for over 90% of the affected patients. As a consequence, approximately 400,000 patients on ART currently have undetectable viral load, lead normal lives, and are untransmittable. However, ART must remain in place forever or else the viral load in blood will rebound. Recent advance in stem cell transplant, gene editing, and therapeutic HIV vaccine development yields hope on designing novel approach for an HIV elimination or functional cure. The National AIDS Prevention and Alleviation Committee of Thailand has set up the Subcommittee on HIV Vaccine Trials to oversee and endorse experimental vaccine regimen with sound and adequate scientific background to be tested in Thailand. So far, at least 23 small and large studies have been conducted in collaboration with the international organizations and at least 10 articles were published after the studies ended and cited over 2,726 times. One landmarked trial using notable vaccine regimen, evaluated in the RV144 trial, has shown effectiveness in reducing new infections by 31.2%. The conduction of these research in Thailand have facilitated the development of infrastructure, networking, and experience sufficiently to further support future field trial with a notable HIV cure approach. Since there are over 400,000 HIV cases with undetectable viral load in Thailand, this condition poses an excellent opportunity for testing a novel HIV cure approaches to eliminate HIV or functional HIV cure. The Subcommittee has reviewed current novel methods in this regard and strongly welcomed international organizations with similar aim, to test an innovative therapeutic HIV vaccine or a combination therapy to finally end HIV/AIDS in Thailand by the year 2030.
