Balancing Education And Health Among Rural Schoolchildren During Prolonged Heat Wave In The Philippines, Elias Olapane

Kesmas

Intensifying heat waves disrupt learning environments in the Philippines, particularly in rural areas where schools often lack adaptive infrastructure. Many rural classrooms are built with heat-retaining materials, such as concrete, which trap excessive heat, leading to indoor temperatures exceeding safe comfort levels. These conditions lead to dehydration, fatigue, and reduced cognitive function, directly impairing students’ focus and academic performance. Schoolchildren are particularly vulnerable due to their developing thermoregulatory systems, higher metabolic demands, and potential preexisting health conditions. These risks are further amplified in rural communities with limited access to cooling, healthcare, and adaptive resources. These challenges require practical, context-specific interventions. …

The New Ropanasuri Journal of Surgery

Introduction. Congenital duodenal obstruction is an anatomical abnormality in newborns. Various intrinsic and extrinsic etiologies can cause duodenal obstruction. The surgical treatment that is commonly performed on duodenal obstruction in neonates is duodenoduodenostomy. However, several etiological conditions, such as preduodenal portal vein (PDPV) and pancreatic annulare cause duodenoduodenostomy nearly impossible to perform, so an alternative surgery procedure with a good outcome is necessary.

Case Illustration. A female neonate had been suspected congenital duodenal obstruction since pregnancy due to polyhydramnios. An OGT was inserted with greenish yellow residue after the baby was born. Based on abdominal x-ray examination, a …
