        Effects of monoculture and polyculture farming in oil palmsmallholdings on terrestrial arthropod diversity

        Amal Ghazali,Siti Asmah,Muhammad Syafiq,Muhammad S. Yahya,Najjib Aziz,TanLi Peng,Ahmad R. Norhisham,Chong Leong Puan,Edgar C. Turner,Badrul Azhar 한국응용곤충학회 2016 Journal of Asia-Pacific Entomology Vol.19 No.2

        Oil palmagriculture has become one of the economic mainstays for biodiversity-rich countries in the tropics. The conversion of native forests to oil palm monoculture plantation has caused unprecedented biodiversity loss in Southeast Asia. Little is known about the effects of oil palm polyculture farming on arthropod diversity. In this study, arthropodswere sampled using pitfall traps at 120 sites in Peninsular Malaysia.We examined howarthropod biodiversity responded to different oil palmfarming practices and local-scale vegetation structure characteristics. We found that the number of arthropod orders was significantly greater in polyculture than monoculture smallholdings. However, we did not detect a significant difference in arthropod order composition nor abundance between monoculture and polyculture practices. In situ habitat characteristics explained 16% of the variation in arthropod order richness, with key predictor variables including farming practice, height of oil palm stands, and number of immature palm. The findings of this study suggest that polyculture farming together with management for in situ habitat complexity may be a useful strategy in supporting biodiversity within in oil palm plantations.

      • Non-Practice of Breast Self Examination and Marital Status are Associated with Delayed Presentation with Breast Cancer

        Ghazali, Sumarni Mohd,Othman, Zabedah,Cheong, Kee Chee,Lim, Kuang Hock,Wan Mahiyuddin, Wan Rozita,Kamaluddin, Muhammad Amir,Yusoff, Ahmad Faudzi,Mustafa, Amal Nasir Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2013 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.14 No.2

        Delay in seeking treatment for breast cancer is a barrier to the early diagnosis and management of the disease, resulting in a poorer prognosis. We here estimated the prevalence of delayed presentation for breast cancer and identified possible influential sociodemographic factors in a cross-sectional study of 250 patients diagnosed with primary breast cancer at the Radiotherapy and Oncology Clinic in Kuala Lumpur Hospital. Data were collected by face-to-face interview using a structured questionnaire and from medical records. We examined associations between delayed presentation (presenting to a physician more than 3 months after self-discovery of a symptom) and sociodemographic characteristics, practice of breast self examination (BSE), history of benign breast disease, family history of breast cancer and type of symptom, symptom disclosure and advice from others to seek treatment using multiple logistic regression. Time from self-discovery of symptom to presentation ranged from tghe same day to 5 years. Prevalence of delayed presentation was 33.1% (95%CI: 27.4, 39.3). A significantly higher proportion of delayers presented with late stages (stage III/IV) (58.3% vs. 26.9%, p<0.001). Divorced or widowed women (OR: 2.23, 95% CI: 1.11, 4.47) had a higher risk of delayed presentation than married women and women who never performed breast self examination were more likely to delay presentation compared to those who regularly performed BSE (OR: 2.74, 95% CI: 1.33, 5.64). Our findings indicate that delayed presentation for breast cancer symptoms among Malaysian women is high and that marital status and breast self examination play major roles in treatment-seeking for breast cancer symptoms.
