Thestudy determined the trend in the consumption of SSBs among households and population groupsfrom 2013 to 2018–2019. The data were taken from the Food Consumption component of the2013 National Nutrition Survey (NNS), the 2015 Updating of the Nutritional Status of FilipinoChildren and Other Population Groups, and the 2018–2019 Expanded National Nutrition Survey(ENNS). Data for this study also includes the household’s place of residence and wealth status,as well as individuals grouped by age and physiological status. Results showed the proportion ofhouseholds and individuals consuming SSB and volume intake declined from 2013–2018–2019.Volume intake per day and the percentage of households consuming carbonated beverages,sweetened powdered drinks, and sweetened tea declined in 2018–2019. The richest and richhouseholds had higher SSB volume intake. Sweetened juice drink intake declined across allage and population groups, whereas sweetened tea volume intake declined among adolescentsand adults. The decline in SSB intake may be attributed to the implementation of the TRAINLaw in 2018. Restricting inappropriate advertisement, clear labeling, and strong advocacy andpublic education on the health consequences of consuming SSBs in schools and communitiesshould be done to sustain further decline. Moreover, tax incentives may also be granted tomanufacturers that adhere to proper labeling.","PeriodicalId":39096,"journal":{"name":"Philippine Journal of Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139356499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objectives were to: [1] identify the food groups commonly consumed and dietary patterns of Filipino pregnant and lactating women; [2] describe the macro- and micronutrient intakes of these women; [3]assess the adequacy of these intakes against dietary references; and [4] identify important food sources of their energy and nutrient intakes. This study involved a cross-sectional secondary analysis of the data of 1,474 pregnant women and 4,571 lactating women covered in the 2018–2019 Expanded National Nutrition Surveys (ENNS). Food and beverage intakes were collected using a 24-h food recall method. Energy and nutrient intakes were calculated and analyzed in relation to the Philippine Dietary Reference Intakes (PDRI). Dishes predominantly consumed by pregnant and lactating women were comprised of rice and rice products, fish and products,and vegetables. Cereal consumption is higher, whereas there was a low consumption of meat,milk and dairy products, eggs, dried beans, nuts, and seeds, starchy roots and tubers, and fruits.The mean energy intakes of pregnant and lactating women were below the recommended energy intake (REI). The majority of pregnant (83.6%) and lactating (81.2%) had intakes below theestimated average requirement (EAR) for protein. Mean intakes of all micronutrients except niacin and phosphorous were below the EAR. Iron, calcium, vitamin C, and riboflavin intakes were furthest from the EAR. Less than 1% of pregnant and lactating women met the EAR for iron, whereas less than 10% met the EAR for vitamin A. Rice and rice products were the most important dietary sources of energy, protein, iron, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and phosphorus in the diet of pregnant and lactating women. The findings of this study reflect the low intakes of energy, protein, vitamins, and minerals due to poor dietary quality and food sources, thus increasing the risk of nutrient deficiency among Filipino pregnant and lactating women.","PeriodicalId":39096,"journal":{"name":"Philippine Journal of Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139356771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Snacking patterns vary between developing and developed countries, and across nations around the globe. Utilizing data from the Philippine ENNS collected in 2018 and 2019, the authors were able to determine the distribution and frequency of snacking among Filipino children, the type of snack foods consumed, and the contribution of snack foods to their energy and dietary intakes. Results revealed that around 70% of Filipino children consume snacks once a day, usually as afternoon snacks.Moreover, consumption of snack foods decreases as the age of children increases. The snack foods frequently consumed are pastries and cookies, bread, crackers, and biscuits, along with sugar-sweetened beverages – with an average energy intake of 300.0 kcal from snack foods. Snack foods contributed 31.2% of the total daily energy intake for Filipino children aged 3–5 yr old, 25.1% in 6–9 yr old, and 21.6% in 10–12 yr old. The nutrient content of the snack foods ranged from 29.5–46.7 g protein, 295.4–347.8 mcg RE vitamin A, 5.4–7.7 mg iron, and 272.3–381.7 mg calcium. More than half of Filipino children consumed snack foods at least once a day, with a higher proportion of snackers meeting the recommended energy intakes and estimated average requirements than non-snackers. However, the promotion of healthy snack choices such as fruits and vegetables and other nutrient-dense foods needs to be strengthened. Findings support the need to develop guidance on healthy snacking among Filipino children and represent a key target for food and nutrition policies to improve the dietary quality of snacks in this population.","PeriodicalId":39096,"journal":{"name":"Philippine Journal of Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139356858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Understanding the factors contributing to the emergence of EIDs is crucialfor mitigating its risks and preventing disease outbreaks that could escalate into epidemics andpandemics. Thus, this study developed a scoring index that could estimate the vulnerability ofan area concerning the emergence of novel EIDs using established global predictors – whichinclude socio-economic and demographic factors (population density, housing, and businesspermits), weather variables (humidity, precipitation, and temperature), animal hosts (livestockand domestic animal populations), and wildlife-livestock-human interfaces (wet markets,urban green spaces, and commercial animal farms). Davao City, located in the Southern partof the Philippines, was used as a study site, wherein its barangays represent the smallest unitof geopolitical communities. Barangays vulnerable to EIDs were determined based on theresulting EID index. Clustering of vulnerability index scores across communities was identifiedusing the Global Moran’s I and Getis-Ord General G statistic. The Getis-Ord Gi* and AnselinLocal Moran’s I were then used to identify the hotspot barangays most vulnerable to EIDs. Themost vulnerable areas to EIDs were barangays with larger urban green spaces and a highernumber of commercial animal farms and wet markets in Davao City. These most vulnerablebarangays were also clustered and located in the districts of Toril, Tugbok, and Calinan. Hence,an appropriate basic action plan for these most vulnerable barangays should be provided.Moreover, policies related to wildlife management and urban planning should be revisited,with emphasis on mitigating the risks (i.e. infectious disease surveillance, zoning, animal biosecurity, and sanitation and hygiene) associated with EIDs while giving equal importancetoward maintaining a stable local economy.","PeriodicalId":39096,"journal":{"name":"Philippine Journal of Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139356599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, TC strike probability forecasts with a lead time of up to 4 wk were derived by combining the TC tracks from each ensemble member of the three models – namely, NCEP Coupled Forecast System version 2 (CFSv2), European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts Ensemble Prediction System (ECMWF), and NCEP Global Ensemble Forecast System version 12 (GEFSv12) – to show how likely it is for a TC to form or strike an area within the 300-km radius of the TC center. To assess its performance, real-time-derived TC strike probability forecasts over the Tropical Cyclone Information Domain (TCID) of the Philippines (bounded by 0–27 °N and 110–155 °E) covering the period from 06 Oct 2020–31 Oct 2022 were evaluated. Verification metrics revealed that the skill and reliability of the TC forecasts vary with lead time and the TC being forecasted. Week 1 forecasts are reliable and can be helpful for decision-making, whereas Week 2 forecasts are considered most reliable only up to the 51–60% probability interval. On the other hand, forecasts with 3–4-wk lead times are reliable for probabilities less than 20%. The case study performed using five TCs with different intensity classifications has shown that generally, forecasts for TCs with stronger intensity have higher skill than forecasts for relatively weaker ones. It was also observed that the magnitude of the probability values varies with the intensity changes within the validity period. These findings suggest that multi-model ensemble forecasts can be utilized for the improvement and eventual operationalization of multi-week TC strike probability forecasts over the Philippines.","PeriodicalId":39096,"journal":{"name":"Philippine Journal of Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90536258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The most optimum reaction was performed at a relatively low temperature (120 °C), 3% NaOH as a catalyst, a 12% molecular sieve, and an agitating speed of 2000 rpm. The evaluated factors were palm olein: coconut oil ratios (70:30, 60:40, 50:50, 40:60, and 30:70) and oil: glycerol ratios (1:3, 1:4, 1:5, 1:6, and 1:7). The results showed that palm olein: coconut oil ratio had a significant effect on melting point (MP), slip melting point (SMP), hardness, and emulsion capacity and stability, but it did not have a significant effect on MDAG concentration (P > 0.05). Besides, modifying a high-shear reactor with a vacuum pump and molecular sieve caused a decrease in water content in the system, subsequently reducing free fatty acid (FFA) significantly (P < 0.05). The reaction condition at palm olein: coconut oil ratio of 50:50 and oil: glycerol ratio of 1:5 produced the highest MDAG concentration (58.28%) with FFA, water content, hardness, SMP, MP, emulsion capacity, and emulsion stability about 6.75%, 7.00%, 3.93 N, 33.23 °C, 35.57 °C, 62.66%, and 61.59%, respectively. Thus, glycerolysis-interesterification of palm olein and coconut oil blend in a high shear reactor is a promising alternative to produce a product containing high MDAG with better characteristics at a relatively low temperature. The product can be used for chocolate spread based on its emulsion capacity, stability, and semi-solid hardness.","PeriodicalId":39096,"journal":{"name":"Philippine Journal of Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86841009","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The prolonged heavy rainfall events were the result of tropical cyclone enhancement of the monsoon winds. The synoptic environment in the two events was characterized by the deepening of the Asian monsoon trough depicted by the zonally-oriented and eastward-extended 1000 hPa isobar. The deep troughs were caused each year by a combination of tropical cyclones located to the northeast of the Philippines – Typhoon Haikui in 2012 and Severe Tropical Storm Trami in 2013, and remnant tropical cyclones in the northern South China Sea region that formed several days prior to the enhanced Habagat episodes. The monsoon trough induced a low-level westerly jet in the South China Sea toward the western Luzon region that transported a narrow stream of moisture-laden air mass to Metro Manila and surrounding areas. Consequently, heavy precipitation ensued. Analysis showed the remnant lows are as important as the enhancing tropical cyclones Haikui and Trami in inducing the westerly jets. Removal of the enhancing tropical cyclones in numerical model simulations still showed a relatively deep monsoon trough that led to heavy rainfall along western Luzon. In addition, the intrusion of low potential vorticity area to the eastern and northern flanks of the tropical cyclones facilitated the strengthening of the steering ridge that resulted in their westward and slow translational motion, making the events last for several days and exacerbating the impacts. Furthermore, the Madden-Julian Oscillation possibly serves as a precursor to heavy rainfall events. Compounded with a populous megacity, understanding the mechanisms that lead to these extreme hazards is vital to future forecasting and disaster risk management of similar events.","PeriodicalId":39096,"journal":{"name":"Philippine Journal of Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77271578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
