Background: Liver fluke disease caused by Opisthorchis viverrini remains a major public health problem with its crucial risk factors caused by some individual habits or false beliefs among the people in northeastern Thailand concerning the consumption of raw fish meat dishes. Objectives: This study explores the predictive risk factors for the infection of liver fluke disease. Methods: The sample consisted of 400 people aged 30 years and above in Thanya sub-district, Kamalasai district, Kalasin province. A cross-sectional analytic study, using the χ2 test, odds ratio and 95% confidence interval, was used to find the influence of each variable, along with the use of multiple logistic regression (p = 0.05). A questionnaire form was used as the research instrument. Results: Factors found in the results are as follows: households with a cat were 7.00 times more at risk than households without a cat; eating raw fish dishes prepared by themselves increases the risk of infection by 2.58 times; eating raw fish dishes prepared by family members increases the risk by 4.74 times; and raw fish dishes bought from a community market increases the risk by 2.33 times. Conclusion: A campaign should be launched to educate people not to eat raw or undercooked fish dishes, but to fully cook fish dishes before eating, as the food is still delicious, but also safe, healthy, and free from liver fluke infection.

Abstract Background The incidence of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) has increased worldwide in recent years, but the risk factors of ICC have not yet been clearly defined. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for ICC. Methods A literature search was conducted in PubMed database for eligible studies published from January 2000 to November 2018. Summary odds ratio (OR) with their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using a random-effects model. Results Thirty-two studies (5 cohort, 27 case control) were included in this meta-analysis. Pooled estimates indicated that cirrhosis (OR=11.96, 95% CI 7.53-19.00), hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection (OR=4.09, 95% CI 3.13-5.34), hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection (OR=3.94, 95% CI 2.85-5.45), alcohol consumption (OR=2.68, 95% CI 1.97-3.66), hepatolithiasis (OR=14.94, 95% CI 6.41-34.83), choledochal cyst (OR=21.67, 95%CI 10.83-43.36), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) (OR=93.91, 95%CI 43.99-200.47), diabetes mellitus (OR=1.82, 95% CI 1.57-2.11), non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (OR=2.23, 95% CI 1.65-3.02), liver fluke infection (OR=2.28, 95% CI 1.30-4.01) and smoking (OR=1.26, 95% CI 1.07-1.49) were significantly associated with ICC. Non-significant association was found between ICC and history of cholecystectomy, hypertension, coffee and aspirin. Conclusions Cirrhosis, HBV infection, HCV infection, alcohol consumption, hepatolithiasis, choledochal cyst, PSC, diabetes mellitus, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, liver fluke infection and smoking are risk factors for ICC.
