Validation of a questionnaire for assessing household vulnerability to climate change and health among small island communities
Introduction: Small island communities in tropical regions are vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. However, there is a lack of a comprehensive tool to assess their health vulnerability, particularly at the household level. This study addresses this gap by developing and validating a questionnaire to evaluate household vulnerability to climate change and health in these communities. Materials and methods: The questionnaire was constructed…
Impact of Audit Committee Effectiveness, Internal Audit and Enterprise Risk Management on Financial Reporting Lag
This study investigates whether enterprise risk management (ERM) functions as a mediating mechanism through which audit committee effectiveness (ACE) and internal audit (reflected by its arrangement and expenses) influence financial reporting lag (FRL). This study also tests (a) the nonlinearity of the ERM–FRL relationship and (b) the heterogeneity in the FRL that affects the relationship. The analysis is grounded in agency theory and the resourc…
Feasibility of acquiring occupational data from cancer patients’ medical records in Malaysian oncology centres
This study underscores the need for improvement in collecting detailed occupational history from cancer patients. Identification of possible occupational exposure is a fundamental step in determining the possibility of work-related cancer
Droplet digital PCR application for the detection of Sars-CoV-2 in air sample
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) may transmit through airborne route particularly when the aerosol particles remain in enclosed spaces with inadequate ventilation. There has been no standard recommended method of determining the virus in air due to limitations in pre-analytical and technical aspects. Furthermore, the presence of low virus loads in air samples could result in false negatives. Our study aims to explore t…
Concerns, perceived impact, practices, preventive measures, and stress among healthcare workers during Covid-19 pandemic in Malaysia
Introduction: Healthcare workers (HCWs) have been continually exposed to patients with COVID-19 and are at higher risk of contracting the disease. Their psychological health is important for overall wellbeing and productivity, which could lead to a reduction in human errors during the pandemic crisis. This study aimed to measure the level of concerns, work practices, adequacy of preventive measures among HCWs, and the impacts on their life and wo…
Head and face anthropometric study for respirators in the multi-ethnic Asian population of Malaysia
Background: Existing anthropometric studies for respirator designs are based on the head and facial dimensions of Americans and Chinese nationals, with no studies for multi-ethnic countries like Malaysia. This study aimed to create head and facial morphological database for Malaysia, specifically to identify morphological differences between genders, ethnicities, and birthplaces, as well as predictors of the dimensions. Design: A cross-sectional …
Compliance to Infection Prevention and Control Practices Among Healthcare Workers During Covid-19 Pandemic in Malaysia
Healthcare workers (HCWs) are at risk of contracting coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) in their workplace. Infection prevention guidelines and standard operating procedures were introduced to reduce risk of exposure and prevent transmission. Safe practices during interaction with patients with COVID-19 are crucial for infection prevention and control (IPC). This study aimed to assess HCWs' compliance to IPC and to determine its association with…
An ecological study of the relationship between urban built environment and cardiovascular hospital admissions (2004-2016) in an Asian developing country
Disaster risk reduction
Purpose The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030 calls for a reduction in disaster mortality, yet measuring mortality remains a challenge due to varying definitions of disaster mortality, the quality, availability and diversity of data sources, generating mortality estimates, and how mortality data are interpreted. Design/methodology/approach This paper uses five case studies to provide details around some of the complexities in…
