Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease that requires long-term adherence to treatment. One of the main challenges in managing type 2 DM is the low level of patient adherence to medication. This literature review aims to analyze the effect of health education on improving patients’ knowledge and medication adherence. The review is based on selected scientific articles that discuss the relationship between education, knowledge, and adherence in patients with DM. Findings indicate that health education-delivered through counseling, printed media, self-instructional modules, or home visits—generally improves patients’ understanding of the disease and the importance of regular treatment. This increase in knowledge contributes to better health behavior, particularly in terms of medication compliance. Interactive educational methods that involve healthcare providers and patient families are more effective than one-way communication approaches. Structured and continuous education tailored to patient characteristics has the potential to significantly enhance disease management. Therefore, health education should be prioritized as a key strategy to improve treatment adherence and prevent long-term complications in patients with diabetes mellitus.

This study aims to examine the influence of cross-cultural leadership style and reward provision on employee job satisfaction, with workload serving as an intervening variable. The research was conducted at PT X, a multinational company managed by foreign leaders who come from diverse cultural backgrounds. As organizations become increasingly global, understanding how leadership and reward systems function in multicultural environments is essential to improving workforce performance and satisfaction. This research applies a quantitative approach using survey methods, with data collected through questionnaires distributed to 105 employees across various departments. The analysis was carried out using structural equation modeling (SEM) to explore both direct and indirect relationships among the variables. The findings show that cross-cultural leadership style has a significant positive impact on workload, suggesting that cultural differences in leadership influence how employees perceive and handle their tasks. Furthermore, reward provision shows a strong and direct influence on job satisfaction, highlighting the importance of fair compensation and recognition in motivating employees.Importantly, the study also finds that workload partially mediates the relationship between leadership style and job satisfaction. This indicates that leadership practices affect job satisfaction not only directly but also through the perceived amount and nature of the work assigned. These results underscore the necessity for companies, particularly those with a multicultural workforce, to adopt inclusive leadership models and implement transparent, performance-based reward systems. By doing so, organizations can create a more supportive work environment, improve employee morale, and ultimately enhance overall productivity and satisfaction.

The development of digital technology, particularly deepfake, has brought negative impacts, including the protection against non-consensual pornography content. Deepfake, which uses artificial intelligence to manipulate images, videos, or audio, allows the creation of pornography without the consent of the individual whose face or identity is manipulated. This phenomenon results in violations of privacy, honor, and the psychological well-being of the victims, while also spreading false information that can damage public perception. Although Indonesia has regulations such as Law No. 11 of 2008 on Electronic Information and Transactions (ITE Law) and Law No. 44 of 2008 on Pornography, there are no specific provisions regulating the use of deepfake technology. This article identifies deficiencies in existing regulations and provides recommendations for adaptive legal measures, including legislative updates, strengthening digital platform responsibilities, enhancing law enforcement capacity, and international cooperation to address this threat. It is hoped that with these measures, protection for individuals in the digital era can be strengthened.

This study aims to analyze the Pareto distribution of stock quality in 16 Apotek Kimia Farma outlets in Southeast Sulawesi during the period of January to October 2024, with a focus on inventory management based on ABC analysis. The research employed a descriptive quantitative design with a longitudinal (time series) approach, involving descriptive, trend, comparative, and correlation analyses to evaluate stock distribution and its stability. The findings show that, overall, the stock distribution in Kimia Farma outlets follows the Pareto principle, with category A accounting for an average of 73-86% of total sales value. However, significant variations were found across outlets, with outlets such as KF 004 and KF Hasanuddin Kendari showing high stability in category A distribution, while outlets like KF BULOG and KF Kolaka exhibited greater fluctuations. Seasonal patterns were also identified, with a decrease in category A percentages in April-May and October. Based on these findings, optimizing inventory management strategies based on Pareto distribution can enhance stock management efficiency, with recommendations to focus on category A, conduct regular evaluations of categories B and C, and adjust for seasonal patterns. This study suggests the implementation of more flexible inventory management strategies for each outlet to improve operational efficiency and customer service.
