Abstract:
A study was carried out from January to December 2012 among pig farming communities of Kathmandu and Morang districts of Nepal to determine knowledge regarding Japanese encephalitis (JE) disease. In this comparative study, 100 pig farmers were surveyed in each district Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) infection. The research observation revealed that the pig farming communities in both districts were poor, illiterate, having no training, highly dependent on pig farming occupation and some were landless. Comparatively, Kathmandu pig farmers had better education, training on pig farming and income status but less land ownership than Morang pig farmers. Male and female respondents were equal in Kathmandu and nearly equal in case of Morang district. There was significant difference (P<0.05) regarding knowledge of JE in two districts. In Kathmandu, 42% pig farmers were aware of JE while in Morang only 25% were having knowledge of it. Study district, literacy status and gender of pig farmers were significantly associated (P<0.05) with JE awareness. Literate farmers (41.5%) were more aware than illiterate (24.5%) and males (43.5%) were much aware than females (21.7%). There was also significant difference (P<0.05) between pig as vector for zoonotic disease and knowledge regarding JE.

Abstract:
Foundation is the part of all structure, which helps transmit the all the loads from above structure to the ground. The bearing capacity value mainly affected by two major factors, they are type of soil and also the location where the stratum. Due to various reasons such as; Economy, miser, unconsciousness etc, people don’t conduct soil test in many cases and starts to build high rise buildings in different locations. From the prevention of collapse and settlement of building bearing capacity of soil should be checked. Zonation mapping of bearing capacity is inevitable in many cases of newer and expansion storey construction. In many countries, zoning mapping of bearing capacity has been available for crowd or urbanized cities. In case of Nepal, there are absences of such zoning maps. The thesis report tries to fill such gap present in Nepal. Different bearing capacity has been found using different tests; SPT Value, Terzaghi, and among them least of the resulted value of bearing capacity is used for Zonation mapping of Morang district of Nepal. These targets are achieved by various data and tests conducted in the soil investigation with boring logs and SPT N value from 239 different locations and terrain around Morang District of Nepal. The methods initially adopted are collecting, selecting, grouping and plotting the data Location in Morang District map using GIS. Various analytical, experimental and theoretical approaches also used for the estimating and analyzing bearing capacity of soil. The research shows that the bearing capacity of soil of Morang ranges from 50kPa to 628kPa.

Abstract:
The objective of the study were to identify the variation in the physico chemical characteristics of dragon fruit species Hylocereus polyrhizus randomly collected from the four districts of Nepal namely., Chitwan, Sunsari, Morang and Sankhuwasabha. Physico - chemical observations were recorded immediately after harvest. Data were collected for fruit pulp, diameter, size, moisture content, dry matter content, pH, soluble solids, reducing sugar, ascorbic acid, titratable acidity and total carbohydrate. The results revealed that the fruit samples collected from Sunsari recorded the highest moisture content (86.81%) which was at par with samples from Sankhuwasabha (86.44%). Dry matter content ranged from 13-15 % among the fruits collected from all the four locations. Average fruit pH was found slightly acidic within the location variation with the highest pH value recorded in the samples collected from Chitwan (5.47). TSS value ranged from 11.7 to 14.70˚ Brix across the different sites. The fruits collected from Sunsari and Morang districts had a significantly trace amount of titratable acidity with an average of 0.57% while the rest of the fruits collected from other locations ranged from 0.6 – 0.7%. Ascorbic acid was found rich in the samples collected from the Sankhuwasabha district (7.80 mg-100g.). Reducing sugar was recorded maximum in fruits collected from Morang district (9.64 mg-100g). The highest carbohydrate content was recorded in the samples collected from Sunsari district (11.36 mg-100g). From the present investigation it can be concluded that the physico- chemical characteristics of Hylocereus polyrhizus showed differences in the results among the samples collected from the four different location.

Abstract:
Japanese Encephalitis (JE) a vector borne zoonoitc disease caused by arbovirus of Flavivirus and transmitted by Culex tritaeniorhynchus additionally pig acts as amplifying host for the virus. A total 115 swine serum samples 100 pig farmers from each district were tested against Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) infection. The collected samples were analyzed by using “Porcine Encephalitis B Virus Antibody Rapid Test Kit”. Among them 17% samples were positive for JE while 83% samples were negative for JE. Total 18% were positive for JE in Morang district while 115.4% were positive for Kathmandu district. There was no significant difference in prevalence of JE in these two districts (p>0.05). In Kathmandu, the prevalence was 15.4% while in Morang it was slightly higher, 18%. 9.5% younger pigs of 3-9 months of age were positive for JE and 20.6% of age above 9 months were positive of JE but were no significant (p>0.05). Similarly, 17.9% female pigs and 14.6% male pigs were positive for JE however difference was not significantly different. In case of breed, no association of pigs with seropositivity (p>0.05), 7 (13.5%) out of 52 local breed pigs and 12 (19.1%) out of 63 were JE positive. The prevalence rate of JEV was higher in Morang district among study area which might be due to several factors like lack of education in pig farmers, non vaccinated pig population and lack of awareness regarding risk factor of JEV.

Abstract:
The lower productivity and higher yield gaps in major cereals are the dominant problems of agriculture in eastern-terai of Nepal. Hence, field experiment was conducted to evaluate Nutrient Expert® wheat and maize model on farmer’s field at two sites each for maize and wheat in Morang and Jhapa district. The experiment was conducted in Randomized Completely Block Design replicated among twenty farmers in each district. Two treatments executed were NE (Nutrient Expert Recommendation) and FFP (Farmer Fertilizer Practices).The result revealed significant difference in terms of morphology, yield attributes and yield of wheat and maize. The highest wheat yield (4.71 ton ha-1) was obtained from NE followed by FFP (3.00 ton ha-1) in Jhapa and in Morang, was (4.01 ton ha-1) in NE followed by (2.05 ton ha-1) in FFP. In contrary, the higher maize yield (9.22 ton ha-1) was obtained from NE followed by FFP (4.94 ton ha-1) in Jhapa and (8.059 t ha-1)in Morang NE followed by FFP (4.52 ton ha-1). The net revenue of NE wheat in Morang was found to be increased by 344.799% while in maize the increment in net revenue of NE was only by 131.158% in Jhapa than in Morang. NE based practices produced significantly higher productivity and profitability in comparison with FFP.Int. J. Appl. Sci. Biotechnol. Vol 6(1): 45-52

Abstract:
Chilapata rain-pool frog (Minervarya chilapata) was described in 2009 from the Chilapata Reserve Forest of West Bengal, India. Here, we report the occurrence of M. chilapata for the first time from Morang district, Nepal, based on acoustic and morphological characters such as the presence of a distinct white line in the upper lip, small size (snout-vent length 18 to 26 mm), pointed snout and presence of dorso-lateral black patch. The nearest record of Chilapata rain-pool frog in Nepal from Pathari-Kanepokhari forest, Morang district, Nepal is ca.182 km west of its type locality Chilapata Reserve Forest, Jalpaiguri district, West Bengal, India. We also report the occurrence of M. chilapata from Barandabhar Biological Corridor, Chitwan National Park, Nepal based on a photographic record. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has listed the species as Data Deficient. Therefore, this record from Nepal will add new presence data for future status assessment for the species.

Abstract:
Background: Road traffic accidents is growing continuously as a global burden and would be a leading cause of death in developing countries. The global burden of road traffic accidents continues to grow and promises to overtake tropical diseases as leading causes of death in the developing world. This study aimed to study the pattern and causes of road traffic accidents in Morang district.Methods: Record based descriptive cross-sectional study was used by reviewing all registered RTA cases of the District Traffic Police Office, Morang during fiscal year 2074/75 (Shrawan 2074 to Ashad 2075). 501 road traffic accident cases were found in the record and used for the study. The data was analysed using SPSS v 16 and presented in normal frequency tables and crosstables.Results: Out of 501 accidents 32.2% occurred Friday and Saturday. In the evening time, most of the accidents occurred. In highways, 53.5% of accident cases occurred. 82% of the accidents occurred in blacktop road. Two-wheelers are mostly involved in accident cases (77%). Negligence (55.7%) and over-speed (36.5%) were the major reasons for accidents. In 33% of cases, accidents occurred involving pedestrians and cyclists. 80% of the drivers are below 40 years; similarly 80% of the victims are also below 40 years. Among victims who died 84.1% were male and among injured 73.3% were males.Conclusions: Weekends, evening, highways and two wheelers are more accident prone time, place and vehicles respectively. Overspeed and negligence of driver tends to major cause of accidents and majority of victims are the young bike riders and pedestrians. Keywords: Burden; causes; road traffic accidents; pattern

Abstract:
INTRODUCTION: Nepal has one of the worst maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality due to the lack of antenatal care (ANC) practices of pregnant women.The objective of this study was to find out the ANC practices and to find out the association between sociodemographic characteristics and antenatal care visits. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The cross-sectional study was conducted from 1st March to 14th March, 2014 among the residents of Rangeli VDC of Morang District in Eastern Nepal where 300 households were taken as subjects. Simple random sampling technique was applied for data collection. Semi-structured questionnaire was used and face to face interview was conducted. Chi-square test was applied to find out the association between sociodemographic characteristics and antenatal care visits.RESULTS: Almost fifty five percent of respondents attended ANC visits.The findings revealed that about 55% received iron, calcium and folic acid tablets and almost 61% of the pregnant women took the tetanus toxoid (TT) injections among who attended ANC. Almost 54.6% of pregnant Hindu women have completed four ANC visits. Women with School Leaving Certificate (SLC) and higher education level was more likely to ANC visits (100%) than women with below SLC (73%) and no education (25%). Furthermore, education of husband shows stronger association with ANC visits (P<0.001).CONCLUSION: The problem of ANC practices is common and has become a key public health concern for all. Lack of education and poor occupation of wife and husband led some of the respondents not to attend the recommended ANC visits.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jucms.v2i3.11824 Journal of Universal College of Medical Sciences Vol.2(3) 2014: 26-29

Abstract:
Hyperuricemia refers to an elevation in the serum uric acid concentration. The blood levels of uric acid are a function of the balance between the breakdown of purines & the rate of uric acid excretion. Theoretically, alterations in this balance many account for hyperuricemia. Prolonged hyperuricemia often associated with gout, is an important risk factor for damaged joints. The present study is undertaken with the aim to find out the prevalence of hyperuricemia by age & sex, to establish the statistically significant correlation between serum creatinine & triglyceride concentration with uric acid concentration & to study the relation between alcohol drinking & hyperuricemia in Morang District, by routine health examinations in the out Patients Department (OPD) of Nobel Medical College, Biratnagar from January 2012 to January 2013. The study reveals that 28.57% (male – 30.06%., female -26.61%) of patients have been suffering from hyperuricemia. It indirectly indicates hyperuricemia is very frequent in developing country like Nepal. The present study denoted that hyperuricemia is directly related to alcohol consumption in both male & female.

Abstract:
Background:Nursing is indeed considered a noble and essential profession in society because of the core value it promotes in its practice-which is the care of life. Nursing student’s perception towards the image of the nursing profession has an apparent impact on their self-concept, self-esteem, recruitment, retention, and performance. Thus, nurses who have positive professional images have good knowledge retention. Methodology: A descriptive cross-sectional study were conducted among nursing students in Purbanchal University School of Health Sciences through self-administration question. Data collection involved assessment of nursing student’s perception towards their profession through census method. Chi-square was done to examine associations between perception of profession and its factors. Results: The 126 participants were included in this study; most of them 60.8% were studying in 1st year. This study mentioned that 51.6%had positive perception and found a significant relationship between perception and the age of the respondents. This suggests that the way respondents perceive the profession is influenced by their age.

Abstract:
Background: Scoliosis is common in children of school going age particularly in the adolescents. This condition is asymptomatic and often children present in the advanced stage of this condition with large deformity. Therefore, early detection avoids the problems associated with large curves. Material and Methods: Retrospective analysis of data obtained from screening of eight schools in the eastern part of Nepal between April 2016 and May 2017 was done; Morang district (5 schools) and Sunsari district (3 schools). A consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon, a trained Physiotherapist and an Orthopaedic nurse conducted school screening for scoliosis using the Adam’s forward bend test in the Morang district while the latter two were involved in screening in the Sunsari district. The data collected included demographics, number of positive cases and treatment prescribed. Results: 5505 children {2840 boys (51.6%) and 2665 girls (48.4%)} were screened for scoliosis in this period. Majority of patients were from the Morang district (86.2%). All six children (five girls and one boy) who were found to have positive Adam’s forward test had adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. One child had a curve of 35 degrees and bracing was started. Rest of the children had curves less than 25 degrees and were kept on regular follow up. The referral rate was 1.1 per 1000 children screened for scoliosis. Conclusion: Though the overall prevalence of scoliosis appears to be less in our population, school screening is still important for two main reasons. This may be the only way to detect cases early so that treatment can be instituted before deformity becomes large. Secondly, this activity would also spread awareness about this little known condition in the community. Journal of Nobel Medical College Volume 7, Number 1, Issue 12, January-June 2018, Page: 37-40

Abstract:
Monitoring natural background radiation is important to locate the high background area. The objective of the work is to find the average background radiation in the Morang district and to observe the effects of cosmic radiation at high altitudes. In this study, background radiation was measured in 17 different municipalities of Morang with the help of a GM counter of model GMC-300E plus. The result showed that the annual effective dose of Morang was 0.24±0.02mSv/y and was below the recommended value of 1 mSv/y set by ICRP for public health. The radiation level was slightly higher in the hospital area. The frequency distribution indicates that there is a good fit of observed data with a known Gaussian distribution. The variation of background radiation with an altitude from 381 to 2550m showed an increasing trend. The best-fitted line depicted that background radiation increased by 16% with 1000m in altitude and it was slightly higher than the literature’s result of 10-12%. The comparative study of the present work showed that the effective dose was the least value in the Morang (0.24mSv/y) and the highest in the Pokhara Valley (0.81mSv/yr).

Abstract:
AbstractThis is a review of epilepsy in Nepal. Nepal is a predominantly rural country with a population of 21 million. A community-based survey in Morang district showed that the prevalence of epilepsy was 7.3 per 1,000 population. A cohort of 300 cases in Shree Birendra Military Hospital showed that neurocysticercosis was the most important etiological cause. There are seven neurologists, 10 CT scanners, three MRIs, and four EEG machines in the country. The practice of anticonvulsant use varied according to different geographical locations. The treatment gap may be in excess of 70%. The epidemiology study in Morang district showed that the proportion seeking modern treatment was higher among those with more frequent seizure. None of the patients were able to attribute their illness to brain disease. Various forms of traditional treatment are widely practiced in all casts among Hindus as well as Buddhists.

Abstract:
Global circulation model (GCM) projections indicate that the temperature over Nepal will increase between 0.5ºC and 2.0ºC with a multi-model mean of 1.4ºC, by the 2030s and between 3.0ºC and 6.3ºC, with a multi-model mean of 4.70C, by the 2090s. In this context, this paper highlights trend of climate change and its impact on crop production practices of Morang district. The research issues are appraised based on secondary data and document review. This study found that crops production trend has been changed in Morang District. It has decreased from 392330 metric ton in 2068/69 into 318841 metric ton in 2069/70. However, the production of Paddy wheat, maize, oilseed, pulses, potato, vegetables fruits and jute are loss but millet, sugarcane, spices, fish, tea, cardamom and mushroom are increased.Due to climate change, different types of insects are attacking Soil fertility is also declining. Climate change has led to a decline in agricultural production due to floods, inundation of arable lands, changes in the timing of cultivation, and failure of previously planted fertilizer seeds. Therefore, the local and central government must provide subsidy to the marginal farmers through the affirmative attractive policies and programs.

Abstract:
This cross-sectional study was carried out in Purbanchal University teaching hospital outpatient department among 175 respondents to assess the level of knowledge and awareness in dengue prevention. Nearly 53% of the respondents were aged ≤40 years. Similarly, more than half (61.7%) of the respondents were male. The mean score of knowledge was 5.41 ± 3.41 regarding dengue fever and 5.29 ± 3.34 regarding dengue prevention. More than half of the respondents had correct knowledge regarding the breeding season, common presentation, source of transmission and susceptibility of dengue fever however, very few knew about the drug of choice, route of transmission and specific symptoms like skin-rash, muscle pain, etc. It was also interesting to note that people were more aware regarding basic ways to prevent dengue like using mosquito bed nets, reducing source of stagnant water, using mosquito repellents, etc. than some modern techniques like window screening. Even though dengue is an epidemic people seem to have lower than average knowledge regarding its prevention hence, sufficient informational and educational materials must be made available to the public and community centers where maximum people can get it for enhancement of their knowledge on dengue and improve the good practice on dengue prevention.

Abstract:
Objective: This study was carried out to determine the prevalence of Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency among population of selected malaria endemic districts in central and eastern terai of Nepal.Methods: Six hundred seventy whole blood samples were collected from the indigenous peoples community, identified based on district public health office records for G6PDd in the past from Jhapa, Morang and Dhanusha districts endemic to malaria, during April to June 2013. Collected blood samples were tested on the sites by using BinaxNow G6PD test kit and CareStartTM G6PD test kits.Results: The G6PD deficiency was found to be in 6.1% and 6.3% in BinaxNow and CareStartTM respectively. In 42 G6PD deficient cases number of male to female ratio was almost equal. Higher proportions of deficient cases were from Rajbanshi and Santhal communities than others. Highest number of deficient cases was in Jhapa followed by Morang and Dhanusha districts respectively.Conclusion: G6PD deficiency in indigenous population group in eastern and central terai are heterogenous. So the testing of G6PD before initiation of radical treatment of Plasmodium vivax infection would be important for reducing the risk of hemolysis following Primaquine (PQ) administration. Rational evidence-based PQ administration may be helpful in contributing towards the elimination of malaria from the country.

Abstract:
Background: Visceral leishmaniasis is a major public health concern in Nepal. During the last few years, several Kala-azar outbreaks have been reported from Terai region including Morang district, Nepal. Objectives: The aim of this study is to determine the risk factors associated with Kala-azar at individual and household levels in selected highly endemic areas of Morang district of eastern Nepal. Methodology: A case control study was conducted in five endemic village development committees of Morang district with 62 cases already treated from B.P. Koirala Institute of Health Sciences and Koshi Zonal Hospital. Two hundred and forty eight controls were selected randomly from the same village at the ratio of 1:4. Data was collected between September and November 2013 using structured questionnaires. Bivariate and multivariate analysis were done and the final model was selected using the backward elimination strategy. Results: This study showed that the majority of cases (29.0%) were from the 13-25 years age group, males are more than females and indigenous caste (74.2%) were affected more than other caste. Living in thatched house (OR 4.57, 95% CI 1.91-10.93), ownership of animal (OR 3.95, 95% CI 1.87-8.37), sleeping on the ground floor (OR 3.90, 95% CI 1.83-8.31), history of migration to India and proximity to other Kala-azar cases within 50 metres distance of household were significant risk factors for visceral leishmaniasis. The association with socioeconomic status remained significant and there was a clear dose – response effect. Conclusion: Living in thatched house, ownership of animals, sleeping on the ground floor, history of migration to India, proximity to other Kala-azar cases within 50 metres distance and poverty are the main risk factors associated with visceral leishmaniasis transmission.

Abstract:
Introduction: Post-natal care is regarded as the care provided to the mother and the baby during first six weeks of childbirth. Large proportion of maternal and neonatal deaths occur during postnatal period. The utilization of postnatal care services helps in preventing maternal and neonatal deaths. The study aim to find out the utilization of postnatal care services among postnatal mothers residing in Morang district, Nepal.Methods: A Cross sectional study was undertaken among 256 postnatal mothers residing in Kanepokhari rural municipality, Belbari and Sundarharaincha municipality of Morang district. Multi stage sampling method was used. Ethical approval was obtained from PUSHS- Institutional review committee (Ref no 041—078/079). Face to face interview was done using self developed semi structure questionnaire to collect the data. Descriptive statistics were performed and chi –square was done. Multivariable logistic regression was doneResults: Nearly half (47.3%) had utilized the postnatal care services. Very few (6.6%) of the respondents were aware about the importance about the PNC utilization. Most (85.2%) of the respondents were unaware about the government protocol of PNC visit. Educational level, duration of stay at hospital parity, danger sign seen in pregnancy, place of delivery and mode of delivery were associated with having utilization of postnatal services. The primi mothers (95% CI: 1.229-0.403) had higher likelihood of having postnatal care utilization.Conclusions: Nearly half postnatal mothers have utilized the postnatal care services. Awareness programme focusing on government protocol for postnatal services should be done to improve the utilization.

Abstract:
Background: Premenstrual syndrome is the symptom that occurs prior to the menstrual cycle and includes physical and psychological changes that interfere with the daily activities. There is inadequate knowledge regarding premenstrual syndrome among adolescents and very little information is found regarding it among adolescents in Nepal. Objective: To find out knowledge and prevalence regarding premenstrual syndrome among adolescent students of a selected school in Morang District, Nepal. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 137 female adolescents from 13-19 years having a menstrual cycle. Non-probability purposive sampling was used to select the school and census sampling at the time of data collection for the selection of samples. The data was collected by a self-administered questionnaire and interview method, which was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The study revealed that most (90.5%) of the respondents had inadequate knowledge regarding premenstrual syndrome and 57.7% of the respondents had a prevalence of premenstrual syndrome. Most (73%) of the respondents said that they had experienced fatigue/lack of energy prior to menstruation and many (56.93%) of the respondents said that the prevailing symptoms interfered with their work efficiency and productivity. Statistically, a significant association was found between the knowledge of premenstrual syndrome and ethnicity at (p=0.037). Similarly, a statistically significant association was also found between the prevalence of premenstrual syndrome and family history at (p=0.018); the prevalence of premenstrual syndrome and regularity of menstruation at (p= 0.002). Conclusion: The findings of this study concluded that there was inadequate knowledge and the premenstrual syndrome was present among most of the respondents. The findings highlight the importance of awareness regarding premenstrual syndrome among adolescents.

Abstract:
Background and objectives: Importance of maternal health has been recognized over the last decade, however information about the perception of illness and health care behavior of obstetric complication is lacking. So, this study was conducted to find out the prevalence of taking care during pregnancy and delivery, and to find out the association between sociodemographic characteristics and taking care during pregnancy and delivery. Material and Methods: The study is a cross-sectional study conducted among the residents of Rangeli VDC of Morang District in Eastern Nepal where 300 households were taken as subjects. Semi-structured questionnaire was used and face to face interview was conducted. Chi-square test was applied to find out the association between sociodemographic characteristics and taking care during pregnancy and delivery. Results: Almost forty percent of pregnant women have taken care during pregnancy and delivery i.e. delivery conducted in Health Care Center (HCC). Only 21.8% of women were applied antiseptics after cutting cord and sixty three percent of women have fed colostrums to their babies. All of the women with Brahmin/ Chhetri have conducted delivery in Health Care Center. The women with SLC and higher education have conducted delivery at HCC more (91.1%) than below SLC (51%) and illiterate (12.5%). The women with service have conducted delivery at HCC more than other occupational groups. Conclusion: The problem of taking care during pregnancy and delivery is common and has become a key public health concern for all. Lack of education and poor occupation of wife and husband led some of the respondents not taking care during pregnancy and delivery.

Wheat production in Nepal is declining due to inadequate fertility application and/or management program. Nutrient Expert® (NE) Model was adopted to compare with the conventional fertilizer application. Thus, the objectives of this research were to assess the adopted Nutrient Expert® Model vis-à-vis its conventional counterpart in Morang District of Nepal. The experiment was conducted from January 2015 to August 2017 in Itahara and Babiyabirta of Morang district of Eastern Nepal. The experiment comprised of two treatments and twenty replications. The results showed that there is a significant yield difference between the adopted Nutrient Expert® software doses compared to the farmers’ conventional practices. The percent increase in the grain yield among the treatments was 95.33% in Nutrient Expert® compared to the conventional system. Significantly, higher net return was recorded in treatment NE (Nepalese Rupee (NRs.) 47,968) than the farmers’ fields practice (NRs 10,784). Field experiment validation confirmed that the Nutrient Expert® Wheat model could be used as a practical tool for the decision support system to make a more authentic fertilizer recommendation.

Abstract:
A better understanding of spatial distribution of groundwater level is necessary for the development of groundwater development strategies and sustainable use of available resources. The present study evaluates the spatial distribution of groundwater level over the Morang Administrative District of Eastern Nepal and the groundwater accessibility over the area. The study was realized by performing an extensive field survey of groundwater level during the post-monsoon season over 126 sites. The study area of 1224.80 km2 was gridded at 3 km x 3 km horizontal grid resolution and at least one survey was ensured for each grid point. Downscaled spatial distribution of groundwater level was achieved by interpolating the observed data using the Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) with different weighting parameters available with the geostatistical module of ArcGIS. The performances of the interpolation methods were evaluated based on the cross-validation of results characterized by the statistical parameters RMSE, R2 and MAE and optimal power (α) for weighting function. The IDW (with α=4) appears to perform well for the study area with Coefficient of Determination (R2) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and Mean Absolute Error (MAE) values of 0.336, 4.750 and 2.967, respectively. The spatial distribution of groundwater level over the low-lands of Morang District mapped with the IDW interpolation method, revealed that the ground water level is maximum in south-western part of the district. The depth to groundwater lies between the ranges of 4.5 to 10 meters covering almost 67.47% of the total study area.

Abstract:
The present study is based on the secondary sources of information on temperature, rainfall and productivity of four major cereals (Rice, Maize, Finger Millet and Wheat) in Morang district of Nepal. A total of 17 years data (1995-2011) on yield of crops, annual total rainfall, annual mean maximum temperature and annual mean minimum temperature is analysed. The suitability analysis of crops shows that all the four cereals found to be suitable for cultivation in temperature range of Morang district, whereas irrigation is required in addition to recorded rainfall in case of rice and wheat. The production of three cereals except millet (which is almost stable) has increased during the study period. The analysis of correlation coefficient shows that maize yield and minimum temperature have strong positive correlation (0.7755). The linear regression analysis showed that the yield of maize was significant and highly sensitive to combined effect of all three climatic factors (R2 0.7414). Whereas, the yield of rice, millet and wheat were not statistically significantly related. At individual climatic factors level, yield of maize and wheat were significantly related with annual mean minimum temperature. The yield of these crops can be increased by crop management mainly by altering the planting time, varieties and irrigation practices.

Abstract:
This study is focused to probe the impacts of COVID-19 pandemic and human security-oriented response in Nepal. Particularly Morang district is purposefully selected as the area of study. Qualitative meta-analysis and semi-structured telephone interview were the methods utilized for the qualitative data collection. The response mechanism adopted can be made further influential through minor adjustments as public always look forward to receiving extra effective responses during emergencies. Local levels have been doing their best with limited resources, where some are capable of mobilizing additional resources. Good practices relating to economic decision-making and implementation by all three levels of governments can amplify the vibes of responses posing positivity in the fighters at the frontline during the fight against non-traditional adversary such as COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract:
Introduction: Emotional Intelligence (EI) is the ability to recognize one's own and other's emotions and capacity to utilize the emotional information to adjust to the environment. Nurse with high EI is found to have a better interpersonal relationship, higher job satisfaction, better leadership abilities, and better academic achievement. There is a gap in information regarding EI in nursing students of Morang district. Objective: The objective of the study was to find out the emotional intelligence and its association with selected socio-demographic variables among undergraduate nursing students of selected colleges of Morang district, Nepal. Methodology: This was a cross-sectional study carried out from June 2020 to November 2020 among 423 undergraduate nursing students of Purbanchal University School of Health Sciences, Hamro School of Nursing and Koshi Health and Science Campus. Ethical clearance was obtained from Purbanchal University School of Health Sciences- Institutional Review Committee (PUSHS-IRC) and informed consent were taken from study participants. A standard tool, “The Schutte Self Report Emotional Intelligence Test (SSEIT)” was used. Data was collected through a google form. Univariate and bivariate analysis was performed. P-value <0.05 at 95% confidence interval was considered statistically significant for bivariate analysis. Results: Majority (75.4%) of nursing students had a high level of EI score and 24.6% of the students had a moderate level of EI score. There was no statistically significant association of total EI score with any of the selected demographic variables. Further, the selected domains such as perception of emotion with an academic year of study (p=0.02), occupation of the mother (p=0.017), management of other's emotions with a year of the study (p=0.018), and utilization of emotion with the type of schooling (p=0.003) were statistically significant. Conclusion: Emotional intelligence was high and does not vary with different sociodemographic characteristics among nursing students.

Abstract:
The study has explored the risk scenario via geospatial mapping of temporal transmission trend of COVID-19 in 77 districts of Nepal focusing on the district-wise risk analyses based on present active cases, population density and land entry points from neighboring countries. In overall, low to very high risk zones have been identified. Jhapa, Morang and Sunsari districts of Province 1; Dhanusa, Mahottari, Sarlahi, Rautahat, Bara and Parsa districts of Province 2; Kathmandu district of Bagmati Province, Nawalparasi West, Rupandehi, Kapilbastu and Banke districts of Province 5, as well as Kailali of Sudurpanchim Province are identified to have very high risk for COVID-19 spread. The rapid growth in the number of cases has made many districts remarkably susceptible to the infection. The vulnerability analysis has been then followed by identification of agriculture hotspots across the country in terms of major crops. 42 districts with moderate to high crop productivities have been recognized as being not in very high risk zones where the government should allow farmers to do their agriculture activities with well-maintained social distance and other safety precautions. The results when combined would suggest an urgent decision by the Government for gradual lockdown relaxation for agro-economic reinstatement what is commonly called the latent comparative advantage for Nepalese economy after tourism.
