Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) are regulated in Article 1 Paragraph (6) of the Regulation of the Minister of Home Affairs Number 39 of 2010, which states that BUMDes is a business formed by the village government with its ownership and management involving the village government and the community. BUMDesa Kareka Nduku, although it functions as a village economic empowerment institution, faces a number of challenges in its operations. Some of the main problems faced are difficulties in recording agricultural assets and tools, as well as the insynchronization between stock records in warehouses and records in the treasurer, which leads to frequent shortages of fertilizer and insecticide stocks. In addition, the manual recording process for capital and business loans causes the creation of monthly reports to take a long time, even more than an hour, and there are often errors because officers have to check daily reports from various fields. This resulted in delays in making reports that should have been submitted by the BUMDes.

This study examines the strategic role of the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) of the Republic of Indonesia in ensuring transparent, accountable, and aligned state financial management in line with national goals. As an independent state institution, the BPK has a constitutional mandate to audit state financial management and accountability objectively and free from intervention by any party. This study uses a legal method with a normative juridical approach, accompanied by descriptive analysis and systematic interpretation of data from literature studies. The results show that the BPK has broad authority in auditing state finances, both for the central government, regional governments, and other public institutions. However, its implementation still faces obstacles such as a lack of internal transparency, overlap with internal government oversight, and limited resources for comprehensive oversight. To address these issues, the BPK needs to strengthen its internal systems, increase auditor capacity, develop more systematic audit result reporting guidelines, and build cross-agency coordination to make its external oversight function more effective, transparent, and capable of supporting clean and integrated governance.

Hospitals are a crucial sector in a country due to their functions encompassing various aspects of healthcare provision. Factors supporting smooth operations and quality healthcare services in hospitals include human resources, facilities and infrastructure, health information systems, financial management, good customer service, security, occupational health, and other supporting factors. This study aims to determine the effect of compensation, work environment, and work stress on employee work productivity at Bhayangkara Level II Hospital in Kediri City. The research method used is a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis techniques. The sample in this study amounted to 40 respondents who were employees of Bhayangkara Level II Hospital in Kediri City.

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease whose exact cause is not yet fully understood. This condition is characterized by damage to the articular cartilage, resulting in pain, joint stiffness, decreased muscle strength, muscle spasms, and reduced functional activity of the patient. Several factors contribute to the development of osteoarthritis, including age, gender, race, genetic factors, smoking habits, history of trauma, type of occupation or physical activity, exercise habits, and obesity. The prevalence of osteoarthritis increases with age; among individuals aged 65–74 years, approximately 39% experience knee osteoarthritis and 23% experience hip osteoarthritis. In those over 70 years old, almost all individuals, both men and women, show symptoms of this condition. Osteoarthritis is a chronic progressive disease characterized by inflammation of the articular cartilage and synovial membrane, which causes persistent pain, joint stiffness, decreased muscle strength, and reduced mobility. Physiotherapy management for this condition aims to reduce pain, improve muscle strength, and enhance joint function. Common therapeutic modalities used include Shortwave Diathermy (SWD), Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS), and the Hold Relax exercise technique, which helps relax muscles and increase joint range of motion

Bell's Palsy is a sudden onset of peripheral facial nerve paralysis that is generally unilateral. This condition is characterized by facial muscle weakness, asymmetry, difficulty closing the eyes, and facial expression disorders. Associated risk factors include exposure to cold temperatures and the habit of chewing ice cubes, which can trigger vasospasm of the blood vessels and inflammation of the facial nerve.  Physiotherapy management is important to accelerate recovery, prevent complications such as synkinesis and contractures, and improve the patient's quality of life. This study aims to describe the implementation of physiotherapy in cases of Bell's Palsy at PKU Muhammadiyah Selogiri Hospital and evaluate the effectiveness of physiotherapy intervention on the recovery of facial function in patients. A case report was conducted on a 41-year-old female patient diagnosed with right-sided Bell's Palsy. The examination included anamnesis, static and dynamic inspection, palpation, basic movement examination, sensory examination, and assessment using the House-Brackmann Facial Grading System (HBGS). Physiotherapy interventions were given three times a week, including Infra Red (IR), Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS), light massage, facial exercises (raising eyebrows, closing eyes, blowing, smiling), and education on preventing exposure to cold. Evaluation was performed using Manual Muscle Testing (MMT) and Ugo Fisch. The implementation of physiotherapy with a combination of IR, TENS, massage, and facial exercises is effective in gradually improving the facial function of patients with Bell's Palsy. Physiotherapy also plays a role in educating patients about the prevention of recurrence related to environmental risk factors and lifestyle.

The Family Welfare Empowerment (PKK) is a community organization that plays a vital role in improving family welfare in Indonesia. Through various programs, the PKK contributes to family empowerment, particularly in education, health, and economics. However, many PKK activities are still conducted manually, including recording and managing member data and activities. This creates several challenges, such as difficulty in archiving, time-consuming information searches, and difficulties in preparing accurate and timely reports. This research aims to design and develop a web-based information system that can simplify member data management, activity recording, attendance management, and report generation more quickly, efficiently, and accurately. This system will be designed using an object-oriented approach, involving several stages, starting from needs analysis, system design, implementation, and system testing. This information system is expected to improve service efficiency, facilitate PKK administrators in monitoring member activity, and support a more precise and weighted data-based decision-making process. Another advantage is that this system will also facilitate the PKK in producing faster, more comprehensive, and more structured activity reports, thereby increasing organizational transparency and accountability. Therefore, this web-based information system is expected to be a solution to improve the PKK's performance in carrying out its function of empowering family welfare.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that presents significant diagnostic challenges due to its heterogeneous clinical manifestations and symptom overlap with other neurological conditions. Early and accurate diagnosis is critical for initiating timely interventions and improving patient outcomes. Traditional diagnostic approaches rely heavily on clinical expertise and manual interpretation of neuroimaging data, such as structural MRI, Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI), and functional MRI (fMRI), which are inherently time-consuming and prone to interobserver variability. Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Deep Learning (DL) have demonstrated potential for automating neuroimaging analysis, yet existing models often suffer from limited generalizability across modalities and datasets. To address these limitations, we propose a Transformer-augmented deep learning ensemble framework for automated ALS diagnosis using multi-modal neuroimaging data. The proposed architecture integrates Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), and Vision Transformers (ViTs) to leverage the complementary strengths of spatial, temporal, and global contextual feature representations. An adaptive weighting-based fusion mechanism dynamically integrates modality-specific outputs, enhancing the robustness and reliability of the final diagnosis. Comprehensive preprocessing steps, including intensity normalization, motion correction, and modality-specific data augmentation, are employed to ensure cross-modality consistency. Evaluation using 5-fold cross-validation on a curated multi-modal ALS neuroimaging dataset demon-strates the superior performance of the proposed model, achieving a mean classification accuracy of 94.5% ± 0.7%, precision of 93.9% ± 0.8%, recall of 92.9% ± 0.9%, F1-score of 93.4% ± 0.7%, spec-ificity of 97.4% ± 0.6%, and AUC-ROC of 0.968 ± 0.004. These results significantly outperform baseline CNN models and highlight the potential of transformer-augmented ensembles in complex neurodiagnostic applications. This framework offers a promising tool for clinicians, supporting early and precise ALS detection and enabling more personalized and effective patient management strategies.

The Industrial Revolution marked a significant milestone in the transformation of the workplace, creating a need for efficiency and more systematic structures within organizations. This development led to the emergence of various management theories, including Frederick W. Taylor's scientific management theory and Henri Fayol's general administrative theory. This study aims to examine the relationship between the changes brought about by the Industrial Revolution and the emergence of these two theories, as well as to examine their relevance and application in the context of modern management. The method used was a descriptive qualitative literature review, reviewing various classical and contemporary literature covering three main topics. The results indicate that Taylor's theory emphasizes work efficiency through standardization and scientific supervision, while Fayol's theory highlights the importance of managerial functions and structured organizational principles. Both responded to managerial challenges during the Industrial Revolution and remain relevant today, particularly in human resource management and organizational structure. The implications of this study demonstrate the need for a historical understanding of classical management theories in order to adapt these principles to address managerial challenges in the digital era and Industry 4.0.

Zakat is one of the pillars of Islam and plays a strategic role in creating spiritual and socio-economic balance among the people. As an instrument of Islamic economics, zakat serves to distribute wealth fairly, reduce social inequality, and empower the poor to achieve independence. This study aims to analyze the concept of zakat in Islam, its social and economic functions, and its implementation in the context of development in Indonesia. The research method used is qualitative descriptive with a literature study approach that examines primary sources such as the Quran and Hadith, as well as secondary literature from journals, BAZNAS reports, and previous research. Therefore, optimizing zakat requires a comprehensive strategy through digitizing the collection system, an empowerment-based productive approach, integrating national mustahik data, and synergy between the government, zakat institutions, and the private sector. With professional and empowerment-oriented management, zakat has the potential to become a crucial pillar in realizing sustainable socio-economic development and a just and prosperous society.

This study aimed to examine the ecological and socio-economic aspects of mangrove utilization in Nasem Village, Merauke Regency, Papua Selatan. The ecological assessment included mangrove species composition, regeneration potential, health status, and Importance Value Index (INP). Socio-economic data were collected through questionnaires and focus group discussions with 30 respondents. The results showed that  Avicennia marina  had good regeneration potential and dominated the community with the highest INP (1.13), while  Avicennia alba  was categorized as new regeneration with a low INP (0.31). The health status of both species was classified as rare/damaged according to national standards, indicating the need for restoration. From a socio-economic perspective, 90% of respondents utilized mangroves for firewood and fisheries, and 95% stated that mangroves significantly contributed to household income, although 83% earned less than IDR 1,000,000 per month. Most respondents (85%) recognized the ecological functions of mangroves, but anthropogenic pressures such as sand mining remained major threats. These findings highlight the urgent need for community-based mangrove management that integrates ecological restoration with sustainable economic development. The study provides scientific evidence to support policy recommendations for sustainable coastal zone management in Merauke.
