Multi-Stakeholder Primary Health Care for Migrant Populations in Thailand’s Border Regions
Primary health care (PHC) in Thailand's border regions remains challenged by the needs of mobile and marginalized populations, despite the country's progressive Universal Health Coverage (UHC). This qualitative study explores the dynamics of cross-border PHC systems along Thailand's borders with Myanmar, Lao PDR, and Cambodia through a people-centered lens. We conducted 101 semi-structured interviews with diverse stakeholders across six border pr…

Evaluation of the community-based suicide surveillance system in Northern Thailand using the RE-AIM framework
The Four Pillars strategy is a feasible and promising approach to reduce suicide risk through a community-based integrated surveillance and response system. Strategic local adaptations enhanced its feasibility without compromising core components. Addressing stigma, improving literacy, and strengthening multisectoral capacity are critical for broader scale-up and sustainability in Thailand and similar settings
Knowing Otherwise
Reflexivity, the critical self-examination of one’s role in the research process, has become increasingly central as researchers navigate positionality, power, and methodological bias when working across diverse sociocultural and linguistic contexts. Yet, intercultural research often overlooks the affective, relational, and embodied dimensions of collaboration that shape how knowledge is produced. This paper examines how transnational, multilingu…
Matters of Gender and Social Disparities Regarding Postnatal Care Use Among Nepalese Women
Objective: The study compares the uses of postnatal care (PNC) and women's autonomy gradients across social caste and used intersectionality concepts to estimate odds ratio of women's autonomy and social caste on complete PNC. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study among 600 women aged 15-49 years who had at least one child younger than the age of 2 years in Morang District, Nepal, was conducted from April to July 2019. PNC, women's aut…
Development of a protein energy malnutrition screening tool for older Thais in public residential homes
Objective: This study aimed to develop and validate protein energy malnutrition (PEM) screening tool for older adults in public residential homes, and to test its practicality. Design: This cross-sectional study consisted of two phases: tool development/validation and tool practicality evaluation. In Phase 1, the questionnaire was developed based on literature review and tested for content validity. Older residents were interviewed using this que…
Are countries’ self-reported assessments of their capacity for infectious disease control reliable? Associations among countries’ self-reported international health regulation 2005 capacity assessment…
Countries' self-reported infectious disease control capacities positively correlated with their disease control outcomes. While the self-reported IHR scores were accountable to some degree, this approach was useful for understanding global capacity in infectious disease control and in allocating resources for future preparedness
Dietary Iron Intake and Availability in Hill Tribe and Urban Women, Chiang Rai Province, Northern Thailand
Data were collected as part of a cross-sectional study. The objectives were to compare dietary intakes of iron and enhancers and inhibitors of non-heme iron absorption in hill tribe and urban women of Chiang Rai province, northern Thailand, and compare iron- and vitamin C- containing foods sold in markets in both settings. Dietary data were collected using three 24- hour recalls from 128 women aged 19-50 years (hill tribe: n = 65; urban n = 63), …
Social support, functional outcome and quality of life among stroke survivors in an urban area
Sophisticated medical technologies can prolong a stroke patient’s life but not always their quality of life (QoL) due to poor functional outcomes. Social support can theoretically assist a patient’s adaptation to life after stroke and improve their QoL, but existing findings are inconclusive. This inconclusiveness is especially found in large cities where family and social bonding can be scarce. We conducted a hospital-based, cross-sectional stud…
Food Consumption and Accessibility in Hill Tribe and Urban Women, Chiang Rai Province, Northern Thailand
This analytical cross-sectional study aimed to examine the associations between setting and food consumption and accessibility in two districts of Chiang Rai province, northern Thailand. 128 women (65 in hill tribe setting and 63 in urban setting) were surveyed using an interviewer-administered questionnaire. Traditional and mobile markets were well utilized in both settings, in spite of the growth of multinational retailers. Consumption of ready…
A Cross-Sectional Investigation of Cardiovascular and Metabolic Biomarkers among Conventional and Organic Farmers in Thailand
Pesticide exposure has been implicated as a risk factor for developing a wide range of adverse health issues. Some examples are metabolic syndromes, including diabetes. This study investigated the relationship between current occupational use of pesticides and metabolic and cardiovascular biomarker levels among organic and conventional farmers in Thailand. In total, 436 recruited farmers were divided into two groups: conventional farmers ( n = 21…
Paraquat Exposure of Pregnant Women and Neonates in Agricultural Areas in Thailand
This study aimed to assess paraquat concentrations in the urine of women at 28 weeks of pregnancy, delivery and 2 months postpartum and in the meconium of neonates. In all, 79 pregnant women were recruited from three hospitals located in agricultural areas in Thailand. The subjects were interviewed about personal characteristics, agricultural activities and pesticide use patterns. Paraquat was analyzed in urine and meconium using high performance…
Evaluation of mass drug administration in the program to control imported lymphatic filariasis in Thailand
Hospital-based DEC administration was an inappropriate approach to DEC delivery in areas with highly mobile Myanmar immigrants. Incorporating health-center personnel in DEC delivery twice yearly and improving the perceptions of DEC side effects would likely increase DEC coverage among Myanmar immigrants
Effects of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation on dengue epidemics in Thailand, 1996-2005
El Niño is one of the important driving forces for dengue epidemics across the geographically diverse regions of Thailand; however, spatial heterogeneity in the effect exists. The effects of El Niño should be taken into account in future epidemic forecasting for public health preparedness
