Abstract

This research aims to determine the inter-relationship among the profile, disaster preparedness, and resiliency of the residents in Barangay 74-A Matina Crossing and what demographic profile significantly predicts resiliency as well as the disaster preparedness of the residents. It explores whether resiliency significantly predicts disaster preparedness among the identified residents. A survey was conducted on a convenience sample of 400 residents situated in a landslide-prone area in Barangay 74-A Matina Crossing using a 3-part structured questionnaire; the Demographic Profile of the residents, the Disaster Preparedness Index, and the Resiliency Scale. When grouped according to sex, it shows that 200 (50.0%) were males and 200 (50.0%) were females. The age groups have a total of 247 respondents (61.8%) with ages between 18-25 years old; 90 respondents (2.5%) with ages between 36-39 years old; and 63 respondents (15.8%) with ages between 50-60 years old. The overall mean of the level of disaster preparedness is 2.66 with a standard deviation of 0.30, indicating that the disaster preparedness of respondents is well-prepared. The respondents obtained the descriptive interpretation of true nearly all the time mean ratings on meaningfulness/Purpose, and the other six variables: Self-Efficacy, Hardiness, Adaptability/Flexibility, Regulation of Emotion and Cognition, and Coping, had often true mean ratings. Findings highlight the significant associations of demographic profiles, disaster preparedness, and resiliency, while regression results show that the demographic profile did not significantly predict the resiliency of the residents. However, only adaptability/flexibility significantly predicts the disaster preparedness of the identified residents.

Abstract

Enterobiasis, commonly known as pinworm infection, is caused by the roundworm Enterobius vermicularis, and is considered the most prevalent parasitic infection in humans worldwide. This study aims to determine the prevalence of Enterobius vermicularis among primary school children in Barangay Gravahan, Matina, Davao City. The researchers utilized a Quantitative Correlational Research Design to determine if there is a significant association between the participants’ demographic profile and the prevalence of Enterobiasis, using a Chi-Square Test for Association. A purposive sampling technique was used to select children aged 6-12 from different households in Barangay Gravahan, Matina as study participants. Specimen collection was conducted early in the morning using the adhesive cellophane tape method. Results showed an overall prevalence of 35.0% for Enterobiasis, with 14 out of 40 samples testing positive for Enterobius vermicularis eggs. Additionally, the study found no significant correlation (p-value: >0.05) between the prevalence of Enterobiasis and the participants' demographic profile. The results highlighted that Enterobius vermicularis remains a significant health issue for children aged 6-12. To help prevent its spread, it is important to practice good hand hygiene, avoid habits that can spread pinworm eggs (such as nail biting), and taking daily morning showers to remove any eggs deposited overnight.

Abstract

This study aims to assess parasitic contamination in lettuce (Lactuca sativa) from selected public markets in Davao City, Philippines. Using a quantitative cross-sectional design, a total of 60 samples were collected from Agdao, Bankerohan, and Toril Public Markets. Each sample was placed in sterile plastic bags and sent to the University of Mindanao Medical Technology Laboratory for examination. Using the method of Hoffman, Pons, and Janer, the samples were washed with saline, filtered, and examined using direct wet mount technique after overnight sedimentation. Four samples were positive for parasites, corresponding to a total prevalence of 6.67 percent. The parasites identified were Strongyloides stercoralis, Balantidium spp., filariform larva, and a trematode egg. It was also found that there is no significant difference in parasitic contamination among the three public markets. The presence of parasites in commonly consumed raw vegetables like lettuce poses a significant threat to consumer safety. Hence, the researchers recommend that local health agencies in the community strengthen educational initiatives targeting vendors, food handlers, consumers, and the general public on proper vegetable handling and safe preparation practices. It is recommended that further research be conducted on effective methods for washing lettuce and other vegetables before consumption to safeguard the public from possible parasitic infections and outbreaks in the future.
