The management of blood glucose levels in individuals diagnosed with diabetes mellitus is a multifaceted process that involves the integration of pharmacological therapy and evidence-based nutritional interventions. Among these strategies, nutritional therapy plays a pivotal role in achieving optimal glycemic control and preventing diabetes-related complications. The success of nutritional therapy is closely tied to the individual’s adherence to prescribed dietary guidelines and the ability to meet adequate protein intake as recommended by healthcare providers. Protein is essential not only for maintaining muscle mass and supporting metabolic functions but also for its role in stabilizing blood glucose levels through slower glucose absorption and enhanced satiety. This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between dietary adherence and adequate protein intake with fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels among outpatients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus at RSUD dr. Iskak Tulungagung. A quantitative research method with a cross-sectional design was employed, involving 26 respondents selected using a non-probability sampling technique. Data collection utilized structured questionnaires to assess dietary compliance, interview forms to capture dietary behavior and protein intake patterns, and medical record documentation to obtain accurate FBG measurements. Statistical analyses included Pearson correlation tests for normally distributed data and Spearman rho tests for non-normally distributed data, ensuring appropriate analytical rigor. The results indicated a significant negative correlation between both dietary adherence and adequate protein intake with fasting blood glucose levels. This finding suggests that individuals who consistently follow dietary recommendations and consume sufficient protein tend to exhibit lower FBG values, indicating better glycemic control. Such results underscore the importance of not only emphasizing dietary compliance but also ensuring protein adequacy in daily nutritional plans for type 2 diabetes patients. These findings have practical implications for diabetes management programs, highlighting the necessity of sustained patient education, regular counseling, and individualized meal planning.

Village websites currently generally only provide information in the form of an interface for users, such as village profiles, potential areas, population data, and current news. However, the majority are not yet equipped with Application Programming Interface (API) support that allows for flexible and automated data integration and exchange. This is a challenge when dynamic access is needed by third-party systems, such as public service platforms, mobile applications, or local government information systems, which require real-time and accurate synchronization of population data. The project aims to implement a RESTful API that can be accessed securely, efficiently, and easily understood by developers to retrieve villagers' data. The development of the system is carried out using the Agile method, which supports rapid iteration and periodic evaluation to ensure that each feature functions optimally according to the needs of users and field conditions. This Agile method is applied in several sprints that include the stages of needs planning, designing the API endpoint structure, coding, documentation, and testing of the integration and security of the system as a whole. The results of the implementation show that the API successfully retrieves data directly from the village database, and presents it in a JSON format that is compatible for use by both frontend and third-party systems. This API supports pagination features for efficient access to large amounts of data, and is equipped with Basic Authentication to keep data access secure from being abused. With this API, the village website not only becomes a static information medium, but also transforms into a digital service platform that is open for cross-system integration. This supports the development of a more modern, efficient, sustainable, and collaborative village information system in the future, so that public services can be significantly improved.

Profitability is one of the key indicators in assessing a company's ability to generate profits and plays a crucial role in financial decision-making. According to the pecking order theory, companies with high profitability tend to prefer using internal funds and reduce reliance on debt. This study aims to analyze the effect of profitability on debt policy, as well as to examine the role of dividend policy as a moderating variable in this relationship. The study employed Slovin’s formula for sample selection and analyzed 263 non-financial publicly listed companies on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) in 2023. The data used in this research were secondary data obtained from annual financial reports published on the official website of the IDX or the respective company websites. Profitability was measured using return on assets (ROA), debt policy was measured by the debt-to-equity ratio (DER), and dividend policy was measured by the dividend payout ratio (DPR). The analytical method used in this study was multiple linear regression analysis with the help of the SPSS software. The results indicate that profitability has a negative effect on debt policy, meaning that the more profitable a company is, the less likely it is to depend on debt financing. Additionally, the findings suggest that dividend policy does not significantly moderate the relationship between profitability and debt policy. This implies that whether a company distributes dividends or not does not meaningfully influence how profitability affects its debt decisions. These results are in line with the pecking order theory and provide insight for corporate financial managers in planning funding structures. It also emphasizes the importance of internally generated funds for companies with strong earnings performance.

In the academic world, proper and efficient reference management is essential to ensure the quality and credibility of scientific writing.

To address this issue, a structured training program was conducted focusing on the use of Mendeley, a digital reference management tool designed to simplify citation and bibliography management automatically. The objective of this training was to enhance participants’ technical competence, digital literacy, and their ability to integrate Mendeley into the process of preparing scientific papers. The training activities were carried out using a series of steps, including needs assessment of participants, collaborative planning, hybrid training implementation (both online and offline), and continuous assistance through follow-up forums. Throughout the program, participants were guided step-by-step on how to install, use, and integrate Mendeley into word processing applications for academic writing. The results of the evaluation showed a significant increase in participants' knowledge and practical skills, with an N-Gain score of 0.70, which falls into the high effectiveness category. The training not only improved the quality of reference management in scientific papers but also promoted greater professionalism and academic accountability. Moreover, it supported the broader goal of integrating technology into educational development. Overall, this initiative is expected to encourage more systematic, efficient, and digitally literate practices in academic writing among educators, ultimately contributing to improved educational quality in higher education settings.
