BACKGROUND The vital registration system in Myanmar has a long history and geographical coverage is currently high. However, a recent assessment of vital registration systems of 148 countries showed poor performance of the death registration system in Myanmar, suggesting the need for improvement. This study assessed the quality of mortality data generated from the vital registration system with...
BACKGROUND Emergence of artemisinin resistance in southeast Asia poses a serious threat to the global control of Plasmodium falciparum malaria. Discovery of the K13 marker has transformed approaches to the monitoring of artemisinin resistance, allowing introduction of molecular surveillance in remote areas through analysis of DNA. We aimed to assess the spread of artemisinin-resistant P falcipa...
In Myanmar, as in most of Southeast Asia, not only are the numbers of persons in older ages rapidly increasing but their share of the total population is growing, resulting in population ageing. Yet little information has been available about older persons in the country due to a lack of empirical studies. To remedy this, HelpAge International sponsored the 2012 Myanmar Ageing Survey (MAS) with...

Secondly, these ideas are empirically illustrated by a c...
Gastric cancer is a significant health problem in Asia. Although the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection is similar in Bhutan, Vietnam, and Myanmar, the incidence of gastric cancer is highest in Bhutan, followed by Vietnam and Myanmar. We hypothesized that H. pylori virulence factors contribute to the differences. The status of cagA, vacA, jhp0562, and β-(1,3)galT(jhp0563) was examined ...
This work studies the last twenty-six years of civil war in Myanmar. Since the country bears several correlates of war such as poor economic performance, rugged terrain, lack of inclusive institutions, ethnic heterogeneity and richness in natural resources, it represents an ideal ground for understanding their interplay in conflict outbreaks. While empirical and theoretical research on civil co...
This study assesses the burden of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and effectiveness of an intervention package in Myanmar. Disability adjusted life years (DALYs) lost for fatal and non-fatal DHF cases and DALYs averted due to intervention for DHF from 1970-1997 were estimated. The data are based on reported cases and deaths from DHF extracted from annual reports of the Myanmar vector borne disea...
