Indramayu mango is a seasonal fruit that is highly favored due to its delicious taste and high nutritional content. However, high mango production is often not supported by adequate post-harvest facilities, particularly in terms of fruit ripeness classification. Currently, mango ripeness classification is still performed manually, which tends to be subjective and inconsistent. To address this issue, this study proposes a ripeness detection system for Indramayu mangoes by integrating the TGS2602 gas sensor and the YOLOv11 algorithm based on image processing. The TGS2602 sensor is used to detect ethylene gas emitted by ripe mangoes, while YOLOv11 is employed for visual image analysis of the fruit. This study aims to evaluate the system’s performance in classifying ripe and unripe mangoes, as well as analyze the integration between the gas sensor and the object detection model. The test results show that the TGS2602 sensor can detect increased ethylene gas concentration in ripe mangoes, while YOLOv11 demonstrates high accuracy in detecting mangoes based on visual images, with precision and recall close to 1.0. The system was also tested under various lighting conditions, including dark environments, and still performed well, although with a slight decrease in accuracy under low-light conditions.

The digital transformation of health services through the Mobile JKN application was introduced by BPJS Kesehatan to provide easier access for the public in obtaining information, managing membership administration, and receiving health services more quickly and efficiently. This study aims to measure the readiness level of patients at Abdul Manap Regional Hospital, Jambi City, in adopting the Mobile JKN application using the HOT-Fit method, which covers three main components: Human, Organization, and Technology. Data were collected from 360 respondents through questionnaires and analyzed using Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that technology factors—including system quality, information quality, and service quality— along with organizational support have a significant effect on system use and user satisfaction, which in turn positively influence the net benefits. The outer loading values of all indicators exceeded 0.7, with Composite Reliability above 0.8 and AVE above 0.6, confirming that the research instruments are valid and reliable. Overall, patients at Abdul Manap Hospital are categorized as ready to adopt Mobile JKN, although improvements in digital literacy and stronger organizational support are still required to optimize its utilization.

Transaction logs in online retail provide opportunities for data-driven customer segmentation. This study segments customers at two scopes global (all countries) and United Kingdom (UK) using Recency, Frequency, and Monetary (RFM) features derived from the Online Retail transaction dataset. After cleaning cancellations and invalid records, RFM variables are computed per customer and normalized. K-Means clustering is applied separately for global and UK data, while the number of clusters is selected via the elbow criterion and validated using internal indices. The best configuration for both scopes yields five clusters, with moderate separation quality based on the silhouette score. Cluster profiling indicates distinct groups ranging from low-frequency low-spending customers to highly frequent high-spending customers. The comparison between global and UK segmentation shows similar structural patterns, yet different proportions across segments, supporting targeted retention and value-driven marketing actions.

Vibrio sp. is one of the main pathogenic bacteria causing various diseases in whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) cultivation, such as vibriosis, which can reduce the survival rate and productivity of ponds. Environmentally friendly Vibrio control efforts can be achieved through the use of probiotics. One widely used probiotic is Lactobacillus sp., which is known to suppress the growth of pathogenic bacteria through competition for space and nutrients, production of antimicrobial compounds (bacteriocins and organic acids), and increased shrimp non-specific immunity. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of administering different doses of Lactobacillus sp. in suppressing Vibrio sp. populations in whiteleg shrimp cultivation media. The method used was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with four treatments and five replications: control (A), 6 ppm lactobacillus sp (B), 12 ppm (C), and 18 ppm (D). The parameter observed was the Total Vibrio Count (TVC) in the culture water after 24 hours of lactobacillus administration.

This study was motivated by the importance of the availability and quality of infrastructure as a major supporting factor for the comfort and smooth running of the lecture process at the postgraduate level. The purpose of this study was to evaluate educational facilities and infrastructure based on the perceptions of postgraduate students in the Islamic Education Study Program (PAI) using the Context, Input, Process, and Product (CIPP) evaluation model. This research is an evaluative study with a qualitative approach, involving PAI graduate students as research subjects. Data collection was conducted through questionnaires, in-depth interviews, and field observations, then analyzed using the Question Discourse technique to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the students' experiences and assessments. The results show that students view facilities and infrastructure as important to very important in supporting the lecture process. In general, the facilities are considered adequate, but there are still limitations in the air conditioning system and internet network stability, which affect the comfort and effectiveness of learning. The implications of this study emphasize the need for continuous improvement in the quality, maintenance, and management of facilities and infrastructure to support the quality of PAI postgraduate education.

Hypertension is a major modifiable risk factor contributing to the development of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS), which includes STEMI, NSTEMI, and unstable angina. The increasing prevalence of hypertension worldwide raises concern regarding its impact on cardiovascular outcomes. This study aimed to describe the profile of ACS patients with hypertension receiving angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) therapy in the Intensive Coronary Care Unit (ICCU) of RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya. Using a descriptive cross-sectional method, data from 91 patients treated between July 2021 and October 2024 were analyzed. Variables included demographic characteristics, clinical classification of ACS, hypertension degree, comorbidities, types and doses of ACEI/ARB administered. The results showed that most patients were male (73%) and aged over 65 years (40%). Chi-square analysis revealed no significant relationship between hypertension degree, ACS classification, or most comorbidities with drug selection or dosage (p>0.05), except for a significant association between coronary heart disease comorbidity and ARB selection. These findings suggest that in hypertensive ACS patients, the choice between ACEI and ARB therapy is predominantly based on individual comorbidity profiles rather than blood pressure severity or ACS type. The study highlights the importance of personalized treatment approaches considering patient comorbidities to optimize cardiovascular outcomes.

Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) is a critical indicator for evaluating maternal health programs, and insufficient knowledge of pregnancy danger signs remains a significant factor in preventable maternal complications and mortality. This issue is particularly prevalent among third-trimester pregnant women. Health education has proven to be an effective strategy for enhancing maternal knowledge, promoting early detection of obstetric emergencies, and supporting timely decision-making. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of health education on improving knowledge of pregnancy danger signs among third-trimester pregnant women in Nunkurus Village. A pre-experimental study with a one-group pre-test–post-test design was conducted, involving 42 third-trimester pregnant women, with 40 selected through purposive sampling. Structured questionnaires were used to collect primary data, and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test was employed to analyze the knowledge differences before and after the intervention. Results showed a statistically significant increase in knowledge after the health education intervention (p-value = 0.000; p < 0.05). In conclusion, health education significantly enhances knowledge of pregnancy danger signs among third-trimester pregnant women. Strengthening community-level educational interventions can help in early detection of pregnancy complications and contribute to reducing maternal morbidity and mortality.

The problem that occurs in stroke patients is damage to the autonomic nervous system that regulates intestinal peristalsis, causing a decrease in the defecation reflex and leading to constipation. If constipation is not treated properly, it will affect the quality of life of stroke patients. Constipation can be treated pharmacologically and non-pharmacologically. One non-pharmacological treatment is abdominal massage. Abdominal massage can stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, which can increase digestive system motility, reduce tension in the abdominal muscles, and have a relaxing effect on the sphincter. The design used in the preparation of the final scientific paper for the nursing study was a one-group pretest-posttest case study with abdominal massage intervention on three respondents who had experienced constipation for ≥ 72 hours. Abdominal massage was given once a day for 10-15 minutes for three consecutive days. The constipation scores using the Constipation Assessment Scale (CAS) were as follows: respondent 1, Mrs. L, from 13 to 6; Mrs. W, from 12 to 11; and Mrs. W, from 15 to 11. There was a decrease in the CAS score before and after the abdominal massage was administered, but it was not yet able to significantly alleviate constipation in stroke patients. The application of this EBP is expected to provide additional information on the administration of abdominal massage to stroke patients experiencing constipation for ≥72 hours.

Smoking is the activity of smoking smoke from the burning of tobacco in cigarettes, one end of the cigarette is burned and the smoke can be smoked through the mouth on the other end. If the amount or form of hemoglobin is abnormal, red blood cells cannot function properly in transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide. This can trigger various health problems, including anemia. From the results of this study, we can see that the average value or mean value of hemoglobin levels is 12.5 g/dL, the median value is 12.9 g/dL, the minimum value is 11.9 g/dL, and the maximum value is 16.2 g/dL. The results showed that most of the respondents had hemoglobin levels within normal limits. In detail, hemoglobin levels in the normal category were 23 respondents, low category was 1 respondent, and high category was 1 respondent. This shows that the majority of active smokers in Market VI of North Binjai Village still have normal hemoglobin levels, although smoking has the potential to affect oxygen transport capacity in the long term and increase the risk of health problems if it continues continuously.

Hydroquinone is a skin lightening agent that effectively inhibits melanogenesis, but its use in cosmetics is restricted due to the potential for serious side effects. Although banned in over-the-counter cosmetics, hydroquinone is still found in unregistered night cream products. This study aims to detect the presence, determine the levels of hydroquinone, and evaluate its safety risks in night cream products sold in District X, Sukoharjo Regency. The study was conducted experimentally in a laboratory using a purposive sampling technique on 15 night cream samples consisting of 8 BPOM-registered products and 7 non-BPOM products. Qualitative analysis was carried out using FeCl₃, Benedict's, and o-phenanthroline color reaction tests, while quantitative analysis used the HPLC method with a C18 column and a UV-Vis detector at a wavelength of 280 nm. The results showed that all BPOM-registered samples did not contain hydroquinone, while several non-BPOM samples were detected to contain hydroquinone at levels ranging from 0.0688%–0.2043%. These findings indicate a higher safety risk in non-BPOM products. The implications of this research emphasize the importance of strengthening regulatory oversight and increasing public literacy in choosing safe and legal cosmetic products.

Hypertension is a major non-communicable disease, particularly challenging in regions with extensive service areas. Community health volunteers are essential for prevention and management through blood pressure measurement. Existing training programs focus primarily on knowledge, highlighting the need to integrate cognitive learning with small-group skills practice to enhance practical competencies and community-based hypertension control. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest–posttest design was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of combined lecture and small-group training. Knowledge was assessed before and after training, while skills were evaluated post-intervention. Thirty volunteers from the Public Health Center Selakau participated. The results showed that knowledge of blood pressure measurement improved significantly, with pretest scores of 74.67 ± 16.34 rising to posttest scores of 90.00 ± 10.50 (p < 0.005). Posttest evaluation of practical skills showed a mean score of 80.93 ± 13.35, indicating proficient performance in most assessed items. Combined lecture and small-group training effectively enhanced both knowledge and practical skills of community health volunteers in blood pressure measurement. Integrating cognitive learning with hands-on practice strengthens theoretical understanding and field competencies, supporting more effective community-based hypertension control programs.

Burnout is a psychological condition characterized by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and decreased personal achievement, commonly experienced by medical students. Mindfulness, defined as awareness and acceptance of the present moment without judgment, has been increasingly studied as a strategy to reduce burnout. This narrative literature review aims to evaluate the effectiveness of mindfulness interventions in reducing burnout levels among medical students. Articles were collected from PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar published between 2020 and 2025. Studies indicate that mindfulness-based programs, such as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and brief online mindfulness training, effectively reduce emotional exhaustion and improve psychological well-being. Mindfulness promotes self-regulation, decreases stress reactivity, and enhances empathy, which are essential for medical students’ mental health. In conclusion, mindfulness interventions show significant potential in alleviating burnout among medical students and should be considered as part of medical education curricula.

Efforts to protect children in conflict with the law constitute a concrete manifestation of the state’s responsibility in implementing the principles of restorative justice. This study aims to comprehensively examine the implementation process of diversion at the Pengadilan Negeri Bukittinggi and to assess the extent to which its application achieves the primary objective of the juvenile criminal justice system, namely restoring the child’s social condition without emphasizing retribution. This research employs an empirical juridical approach by combining literature review and field research through interviews with judges, court clerks, and other relevant parties. The findings indicate that the implementation of diversion at the Pengadilan Negeri Bukittinggi has been carried out in accordance with Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System. The diversion process is conducted through deliberation involving the offender, the victim, their respective families, and supporting institutions under the guidance of a diversion facilitator. However, several challenges remain, including limited public understanding of the importance of restorative-based settlement, insufficient human resources with adequate competence in implementing diversion, and frequent failures in reaching agreements between offenders and victims. This study concludes that diversion in court proceedings is not merely a legal obligation but also an essential instrument in creating a more humane child-oriented justice system. Therefore, enhancing the competence of law enforcement officers and strengthening inter-agency coordination are necessary to support the sustainable success of diversion.

This study is motivated by the increasing complexity of financing coordination between the National Health Insurance (BPJS Kesehatan) and supplementary health insurance providers under the Coordination of Benefits (KAPJ) scheme, which creates potential claim disputes and administrative risks for hospitals. Although Minister of Health Decree No. HK.01.07/MENKES/1117/2025 regulates payment allocation and membership verification mechanisms, it does not explicitly recognize pre-admission confirmation as a preventive legal protection instrument. This research aims to analyze the normative position of pre-admission confirmation within the KAPJ framework, conceptualize it as a preventive legal protection mechanism, and formulate a proportional implementation model. The study employs a normative juridical method using statutory and conceptual approaches through literature review of relevant regulations and scholarly works. The findings indicate that pre-admission confirmation possesses implicit normative legitimacy through membership verification obligations and system integration requirements, and functions as a risk allocation mechanism that clarifies payment responsibilities prior to service delivery. Its implementation enhances legal certainty, reduces fraud potential, and minimizes claim disputes, provided that access to emergency medical services remains guaranteed.

This study examines the distortion between civil and criminal perspectives in the legal considerations (ratio decidendi) of Judex Juris in Supreme Court Decision Number 121K/Pid.Sus/2020. The decision lacks substantial criminal law considerations regarding the alleged corruption offense. Instead, the legal reasoning focuses on the fault or negligence of company directors, particularly the exception under Article 97 of Law Number 40 of 2007 concerning Limited Liability Companies, which embodies the Business Judgment Rule doctrine. Furthermore, these considerations are distorted by tort (onrechtmatige daad) as regulated in Article 1365 of the Civil Code juncto Article 138 paragraph (1) letter b of the Company Law. This research employs a legislative approach by analyzing various legal instruments, including the 1945 Constitution, the Criminal Code, the Criminal Procedure Code, the Limited Liability Company Law, State-Owned Enterprises Law, Judicial Power Law, Supreme Court Law, and the Corruption Eradication Laws. A conceptual approach is also utilized to examine theoretical concepts concerning corporate crime, directors' liabilities, state losses, tort, negligence from criminal and civil perspectives, business judgment rules, collective collegiality principles, and formal-material classification of legislation. The data comprises primary legal materials (legislation and court decisions) and secondary legal materials (legal literature and scientific journals). Analysis is conducted qualitatively by interpreting legal principles and their relevance to the court's considerations in the decision.

This article examines Indonesia’s public policy on personal data protection in light of Law No. 27/2022, which mandates the establishment of an independent Personal Data Protection Authority (PDP Authority). Despite this legal requirement (Article 58 UU PDP), no such institution has been formed. As a result, there is currently no supervisory authority with the mandate to audit compliance, impose administrative sanctions, or resolve data protection disputes. Enforcement of the law has thus remained reactive rather than preventive, with violations prosecuted only after harm occurs. Experts warn that without a strong implementing agency, deterrence is weak: administrative sanctions cannot be effectively applied and punished violations continue unchecked. Cybersecurity analysts even describe this gap as a national digital protection crisis, as personal data leaks (e.g. millions of citizens’ records exposed in recent breaches) continue unabated. Using a normative legal research approach and literature review, this study analyzes how the lack of the mandated PDP Authority undermines the effectiveness of data protection in Indonesia. The article reviews relevant legal theory on regulatory independence and deterrence, and compares with international best practices (e.g. EU/GDPR). We find that the absence of the agency creates serious implementation gaps, and we urge the government to immediately form the PDP Authority and clarify its powers.

This study examines the sacred meaning of the agricultural cycle in the life of the indigenous community of the Detunggali Communal Land through an ethnographic approach. Agricultural rituals accompanying all stages of farming from land clearing, seed preparation and planting, crop maintenance, to harvesting are understood as cultural practices that integrate spiritual, social, and ecological dimensions. The study aims to explore how these agrarian rites function in shaping relationships between humans, nature, and ancestors, while sustaining the collective identity of the Detunggali community. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, with data collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation involving customary elders and community members. The findings reveal that farming activities in Detunggali are not merely economic endeavors but are deeply embedded in sacred values expressed through symbols, prayers, and customary rules. Agrarian rituals play a crucial role in maintaining cosmic balance, strengthening social cohesion, and fostering ecological awareness rooted in local cosmology. The study highlights that indigenous agricultural traditions remain a vital source of cultural and spiritual values, offering important insights for cultural preservation and locally grounded approaches to sustainable development.

Paaloka is a religious–cultural practice of the indigenous community of Detunggali Lewumbangga Village that functions as a medium for maintaining relationships with ancestors as well as a means of fostering social solidarity. This study aims to analyze the religious meaning of Paaloka and its relevance from the perspective of Catholic faith and within the local social context. The research employs a descriptive qualitative method, with data collected through observation and in-depth interviews with traditional leaders, church leaders, and community members. Data analysis was conducted through processes of reduction, categorization, and thematic interpretation. The findings indicate that Paaloka embodies religious values such as expressions of gratitude, petitions for blessings, and respect for ancestors, and serves to strengthen communal identity and social cohesion. From a theological perspective, Paaloka can be understood as a space for the inculturation of Catholic faith insofar as it is interpreted as an expression of prayer and lived faith in God without negating the teachings of the Church. This study underscores the importance of dialogue between faith and culture in the development of contextual pastoral practice.

This Community Service Program (PKM) was carried out in Dander Village with the aim of increasing the marketability of agricultural products through assistance in branding strategies and digital marketing. The background of this activity stems from the low added value and limited market reach of agricultural products, most of which are still sold without clear branding and have not yet utilized digital media. The program aims to raise farmers’ awareness of the importance of brand identity, enhance their ability to design product branding, and utilize digital platforms for promotion and sales. The implementation methods included planning, socialization and branding training, digital marketing training, implementation assistance, and evaluation. Through this activity, participants were trained to create brand identities, product packaging, business social media accounts, and digital promotional content. The results showed an improvement in participants’ skills in developing branding strategies and managing digital marketing, which led to an average sales increase of 25–30%. This activity demonstrates that proper application of branding and digital marketing can enhance the competitiveness and selling value of local agricultural products in Dander Village.

This study aims to explore the influence of formal language skills on the use of slang among first-semester students in the English Language and Literature Education Program at Muhammadiyah University Maumere. The method used in this study is a descriptive qualitative approach with subjects consisting of first-year students. Information was collected through observation, questionnaire distribution, and brief interviews about daily language use habits and academic contexts. The findings of this study indicate that the majority of students actively use slang when interacting informally, especially when communicating with peers and on social media platforms. The use of slang serves as a way to express identity, build social solidarity, and facilitate social adjustment. However, deficiencies in formal language skills make it difficult for some students to recognize the appropriate use of language in context, so that elements of slang often creep into academic situations, such as in class discussions and assignment writing. This study concludes that formal language skills have an impact on the use of slang. Students with high formal language skills tend to be better at switching between language varieties according to context, while those with low formal skills are at greater risk of mixing them up.
