Pneumonia remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, particularly in resource-limited settings and among elderly populations, where timely diagnosis and continuous monitoring are often constrained by limited clinical infrastructure. This study presents an edge–cloud–integrated framework for early pneumonia risk monitoring, leveraging multimodal wearable sensors and deep learning to support continuous short-duration monitoring. The proposed system is designed to operate in near real time under simulated deployment conditions, continuously acquiring and analyzing physiological signals (respiratory rate, heart rate, SpO₂, and body temperature) alongside event-driven acoustic biomarkers (cough sounds) within a distributed architecture. A lightweight edge module performs local signal preprocessing and anomaly triage, selectively transmitting salient information to a cloud-based multimodal deep learning model for refined risk estimation and interpretability analysis. The framework was evaluated using a multi-source dataset comprising public repositories (MIMIC-III and Coswara) and a clinically supervised wearable study conducted in two Nigerian hospitals, resulting in 718  hours of quality-controlled multimodal monitoring data. In a pooled multi-source evaluation, the system achieved an AUC of 0.95, while in a clinically realistic local-only evaluation, the AUC was 0.86, reflecting a consistent but preliminary diagnostic signal. These results highlight the importance of local data adaptation for real-world applicability and suggest that multimodal AI can provide meaningful early risk indicators under resource constraints. Beyond predictive performance, this work demonstrates the feasibility of integrating multimodal learning, edge–cloud computation, and explainable analytics into a deployment-aware, privacy-preserving monitoring framework for low-resource healthcare environments.

Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) enables computation on encrypted data with end-to-end confidentiality; however, its practical adoption remains limited by substantial computational costs, including long encryption and decryption times, high memory consumption, and operational latency. Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) complement FHE by enabling correctness verification without revealing sensitive information, although they do not support encrypted computation independently. This study integrates both techniques to enable encrypted computation with verifiably consistent results. A prototype system is implemented in Python using Microsoft SEAL for homomorphic encryption and PySNARK for Zero-Knowledge Proof verification. Experiments are conducted on standard consumer-grade hardware (Intel i5, 8 GB RAM, Ubuntu 22.04) using datasets ranging from 100 MB to 1 GB. The evaluation focuses on encryption and decryption time, homomorphic computation latency, memory usage, and proof generation overhead. Experimental results show that integrating ZKPs introduces a moderate and stable runtime overhead of approximately 15–20%, as analyzed in Section 4, while enabling verification without plaintext disclosure. Ciphertext expansion remains a notable limitation, with observed growth of approximately 30–40× relative to plaintext size, consistent with prior FHE implementations. Despite these overheads, the system demonstrates feasible scalability for datasets up to 1 GB on mid-level hardware. Overall, the results indicate that the integrated FHE+ZKP approach provides a practical balance between confidentiality, verifiability, and performance, supporting its applicability to privacy-preserving scenarios such as secure cloud computation, encrypted data analytics, and confidential data processing under realistic resource constraints.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the internal control system over the payroll system for Civil Servants (ASN) in addressing overpayments and underpayments at the Regional Financial and Asset Management Agency (RFAMA) of Sikka Regency. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The analysis is conducted based on the five components of the Government Internal Control System (GICS), namely control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication, and monitoring. The results of the study indicate thet the implementation of internal controls has been carried out in accordance with regulation, but it is not yet fully optimal. Overpayments and underpayments still occur due to delays in updating personel data, input errors, and delays in issuing Decrees. Strengthening data validation, coordination between units, and regular monitoring are necessary to minimize the risk of payment errors and improve accountability and the quality of regional financial governance

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.

This study examines the experience of access to health services and resilience strategies in adolescents with unplanned pregnancies in Makassar, Indonesia. Access to quality reproductive health services is important for adolescents' well-being, but they often face systemic barriers that affect access to health services and outcomes. The study used an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) approach on seventeen adolescent girls aged 15–19 years who had an unplanned pregnancy between June–November 2023. Data were collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews, recorded, verbatim transcribed, and analyzed by a six-stage science process. Two main themes were found: Navigating Closed Doors: Systematic Barriers to Care and Finding Light in Darkness: Resilience and Agency. Participants faced a variety of layered barriers, including a lack of information about health services and rights, geographical and economic constraints, age-based discrimination, parental notification obligations, fear of legal consequences especially related to abortion, family control over decisions, and limitations in adolescent-friendly services. Nonetheless, adolescents show resilience through seeking strategic help, resistance to pressure, spiritual and religious coping, peer support, gradual acceptance of maternal identity, educational sustainability, and positive meaningfulness of difficult experiences. These findings point to the need for a transformation of the health system that not only improves attitudes of health workers, but also addresses structural barriers such as confidentiality, age discrimination, and service availability, while strengthening agency and adolescent coping strategies.

UMKM Kerupuk Subur is one of the SMEs quite well-known for its cracker products and is located at Jl. Gedongkuning Gg. Nuri No.66, RT.2/RW.33, Wonocatur, Banguntapan, Bantul Regency, Special Region of Yogyakarta. Product packaging is one of the important factors in maintaining the quality of the crackers to keep them crispy and not easily soggy. Currently, UMKM Kerupuk Subur still uses ordinary plastic packaging that is only tied with a string, so its protection against physical damage and product quality deterioration is still limited. Besides functioning as a protector, product packaging also serves as a consumer attraction that can influence purchasing decisions. In 2024, UMKM Kerupuk Subur experienced a production and sales decline of 4.58 percent, which is suspected to be influenced by packaging factors. This study aims to develop Kerupuk Subur packaging based on customer criteria and needs. The Green Quality Function Deployment approach is used to obtain comprehensive information in designing packaging according to consumer needs and preferences. The results of identifying consumer needs show priorities such as packaging that is easy to open, resealable, transparent, environmentally friendly, durable, and tear-resistant. Based on these needs, packaging development alternatives were designed, including an easy-open system, durable and tear-resistant packaging, and resealable packaging to maintain product quality and crispness. Then, testing was conducted with 50 respondents to assess consumer satisfaction. The level of consumer satisfaction falls into the satisfied category, with an average score of 4.18, where 80% of respondents stated they were satisfied or very satisfied with the designed packaging prototype.

The findings indicate that CAATs, through features such as test data and parallel simulation, are effective in identifying system weaknesses, detecting transaction anomalies, and strengthening controls in the expenditure cycle. Fraud in this cycle is commonly caused by weak authorization, incomplete documentation, and expenditures conducted without proper procedures. CAATs address these challenges through data-driven and automated audit approaches. In conclusion, CAATs represent a strategic solution for enhancing monitoring accuracy, preventing fraud, and supporting organizational transparency and accountability in the digital era.

News texts are a systematic way of conveying information that contains declarative and imperative sentences used to convey meaning directly and demonstrate the persuasive value of the news. The research goals are to analyze imperative sentences to understand how commands, requests, prohibitions, or invitations are conveyed so that they can influence the actions or responses of readers, as well as to analyze declarative sentences, which play an important role in constructing discourse structure and indicating the writer's position on the topic being discussed. This study was conducted using a qualitative descriptive method. This method was chosen because it can describe what is seen, heard, felt, and asked. The researcher considers qualitative descriptive research to accurately describe a situation without manipulating variables.  This research concludes that imperative sentences elicit responses in the form of agreement and action, or rejection, either directly or indirectly. Meanwhile, declarative sentences serve as a guide or basis for understanding the context the speaker wishes to convey and can also be used to reinforce previously conveyed information to avoid ambiguity and misunderstanding when examining the meaning. This research is expected to be useful in linguistic studies, more specifically in syntactic material that discusses declarative and imperative sentences in news texts and political discourses.
