HEALTHCARE SYSTEM FOR GERIATRIC SCREENING IN ELDERLY CANCER PATIENTS

Abstract

Cancer is one of the major health issues in Thailand, particularly as the country enters an aging society. The risk of chronic diseases among the elderly often results in limitations in treatment, making it difficult for most patients to achieve a complete recovery. This necessitates continuous care and the provision of accurate information and guidance about cancer. However, current health record systems for patients lack effective interconnectivity, which hinders data analysis and the development of patient care models. Additionally, incorrect information about cancer spread across social media can lead to misunderstandings among elderly patients. To address these issues, researchers have developed a chatbot system that utilizes Natural Language Processing (NLP) technology to understand human language and accurately respond to questions about elderly cancer patient care. The chatbot provides reliable and up-to-date information based on medical knowledge sourced from a database reviewed by healthcare professionals. Furthermore, a web application has been developed to record and analyze patient assessments according to medical standards, enabling healthcare providers to plan and develop appropriate treatment approaches in a better way. This system also facilitates data sharing and connectivity across hospital systems, allowing information to be used to enhance the precision and modernity of treatment approaches. In addition, the chatbot acts as an assistant, providing information and guidance to patients, reducing the workload of healthcare staff in answering questions and encouraging patients to take a more active role in managing their own health.

Objective

โรคมะเร็งเป็นหนึ่งในสาเหตุสำคัญของการเจ็บป่วยและการเสียชีวิตของประชากรทั่วโลก องค์กรอนามัยโลก (World Health Organization; WHO) ระบุว่าในปี 2022 มีผู้ป่วยมะเร็งรายใหม่ประมาณ 20 ล้านคน และคาดว่าในปี 2050 จะมีผู้ป่วยมะเร็งรายใหม่เพิ่มเป็น 35 ล้านคนทั่วโลก โดยในประเทศไทยมีผู้ป่วยมะเร็งรายใหม่จำแนกตามระยะ ของโรคและกลุ่มอายุ ซึ่งพบว่าผู้ป่วยโรคมะเร็งที่อยู่ในระยะ ลุกลามส่วนใหญ่อยู่ในกลุ่มผู้สูงอายุร้อยละ 87 และมากกว่า ร้อยละ 50 ของผู้ป่วยโรคมะเร็งทั้งหมด จากสถิติดังกล่าว สามารถสรุปได้ว่า อายุที่เพิ่มขึ้นเป็นปัจจัยเสี่ยงสำคัญที่ส่ง- ผลต่อการเกิดโรคมะเร็ง ทำให้ผู้สูงอายุจึงมีความเสี่ยงสูง กว่ากลุ่มอายุอื่น ๆ และจำเป็นต้องได้รับการดูแลรักษา อย่างใกล้ชิด แต่การรักษาในปัจจุบันพบว่าการบันทึกข้อมูล ในแต่ละโรงพยาบาลของไทยมักไม่เชื่อมโยงกัน ซึ่งนำไปสู่ การวิเคราะห์และการวิจัยที่เป็นไปอย่างล่าช้า นอกจากนี้ ผู้สูงอายุส่วนใหญ่มักพบอุปสรรคในการเข้าถึงข้อมูลที่เกี่ยวข้องกับโรคมะเร็ง โดยเฉพาะข้อมูลจากแหล่งที่ไม่น่าเชื่อถือ ซึ่งอาจทำให้เกิดการเข้าใจผิดเกี่ยวกับโรคและวิธีการรักษา ดังนั้นผู้วิจัยจึงพัฒนาระบบแชทบอทและเว็บแอปพลิเคชัน เพื่อช่วยในการเข้าถึงบริการด้านสุขภาพของผู้ป่วยสูงอายุ และอำนวยความสะดวกให้แก่บุคลากรทางการแพทย์

Efficacy of mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana) peel hot water extract against Aeromonas hydrophila infection of seabass fingerling (Lates calcarifer)

Mangosteen peel (Garcinia mangostana Linn.) extract using hot water (MPE) has been shown to have antibacterial potential in freshwater sea bass (Lates calcarifer) larvae infected with Aeromonas hydrophila. In vitro studies showed that MPE has a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 25 ppm and a minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of 25 ppm. In vivo, sea bass larvae were immersed in various concentrations of MPE at 0 ppm (control), 20 ppm, 40 ppm and 60 ppm, respectively, for 7 days with A. hydrophila. The results showed that the MPE-treated group had a higher survival rate compared to the control group. Hematological parameters showed that the MPE-treated group had significantly increased red blood cell (RBC), white blood cell (WBC) and hemoglobin (Hb) concentrations compared to the control group. In addition, the water quality parameters were not significantly different, except for ammonia concentration, with MPE having an ammonia concentration of 60 ppm being the lowest. All results can indicate that MPE can improve the antibacterial potential and the culture potential of sea bass larvae.

THE DESIGN GUIDELINE OF IDENTITY FOR HIGH SPEED RAIL STATION

The purpose of this research aims to guidelines the identity design for high-speed rail stations, which are divided into four steps: 1) Survey and analysis of identity at the high-speed train stations, including subway in Japan and Taiwan. 2) Comparison the perception of the environment by the questionnaire at BTS, MRT BL, Airport Rail Link (AERA1), and MRT PPL in Bangkok from passengers 800 passengers. 3) Survey and analysis the perception of identity at the MRT Blue Line by questionnaires 800 passengers at Wat Mangkorn, Sam Yod, Sanam Chai, and Itsaraphap stations. 4) To analysis with the descriptive statistics and one-way ANOVA. Study and survey of the high-speed rail environment from Bangkok to Nong Khai, then synthesize the identity design guidelines by 12 experts with structured interviews to summarize the conceptual framework for identity design for high-speed rail stations. The results shown that the identity of train stations in Japan and Taiwan is designed based on architectural and historical concepts that align with the local environment, society, and lifestyle near the stations. This design approach is evident at stations serving as significant tourist attractions and in the surrounding environment, including external buildings and nearby public transportation connections, as well as entrance and exit doors to the station. In summary, four types of identities have been identified: 1) The Identity Historical and Architectural 2) The Identity of Culture 3) The Identity from Cartoons and 4) The Identity of Art and Design

Testing of Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) based on IEC 61851-1 Annex A

This project focuses on developing a test device for an AC charger for electric vehicles according to the IEC 61851-1 Annex A standard by simulating the test circuit inside an electric vehicle according to the standard to test the operation of the AC charger. The test topic is related to the communication between the electric vehicle and the charger via a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) control circuit system and creating an operation manual (WI) to prepare for testing in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025 standards, which are general requirements for laboratory capabilities in conducting tests and/or calibrations. The overall picture of this project is to develop test equipment and create an operation manual by collecting knowledge and various devices and then comparing the data to meet the abovementioned standards to test the Type II AC charger in each state. The test equipment consists of a communication part between the test equipment and the AC charger using a PLC S7-1200 and an HMI to control the operation of the switches in the test equipment circuit, including controlling parameters and displaying results. The equipment used to measure values ​​is an oscilloscope and a multimeter that have undergone a calibration process to comply with the specified standards.
