After the issuance of Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation, there are several important clusters that need to be considered, one of which is the ease of doing business which is closely related to government administration. Therefore, a system was created by the government to facilitate and legalize business actors in running their businesses in the form of a Business Identification Number (NIB). Because this NIB is a new system and is likely not widely understood by business actors, including MSMEs, it is necessary to socialize it and then provide assistance. Assistance in applying for NIB through the Online Single Submission-Risk Based Approach (OSS-RBA) System by MSMEs is an important step in managing the legality of their businesses. NIB is an identity for business actors that provides access to various facilities and legal protection. The OSS-RBA system is designed to facilitate the licensing process with a risk-based approach, where types of businesses are classified based on their risk levels. The method used in community service under this title is in the form of Socialization/Counseling and Assistance for MSMEs in submitting NIB to the OSS-RBA system. Socialization or counseling is carried out in the form of lectures and Q&A discussions so as to provide a comprehensive understanding. This assistance is carried out by academics/lecturers of the Law Study Program, Veteran Bangun Nusantara University, Sukoharjo Together with the Sukoharjo regional government, in this case represented by the Sukoharjo PMD Chamber of Commerce to ensure that MSME actors understand the procedures that must be followed and can submit NIB correctly. The assistance process includes socialization, consultation and assistance in filling in data in the OSS-RBA system. The goal is to increase the number of registered and legal MSMEs in Indonesia, so that they can access various government programs and get better legal protection.

Stroke is one of the leading causes of long-term disability worldwide. Stroke survivors often experience severe disabilities, particularly in their ability to walk and perform daily physical activities independently. Many are unable to ambulate without assistance, even after reaching a certain level of independence. These persistent impairments contribute to a decreased quality of life and increase the risk of long-term complications. This study aims to determine the self-perceived difficulty in performing Activities of Daily Living (ADL) among ischemic stroke patients. The research employed a quantitative descriptive design and involved 25 ischemic stroke patients selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected at Banda General Hospital using the Barthel Index (BI) assessment tool to evaluate the patients' level of independence in carrying out daily activities, both before and after receiving physiotherapy. The results showed that, prior to physiotherapy, 10 respondents (40%) were in the category of severe dependency, requiring significant assistance to perform ADL. Following physiotherapy intervention, there was a decrease in the number of patients in the severe dependency category, indicating an improvement in functional independence. These findings suggest that physiotherapy plays an important role in supporting recovery and enhancing the ability of ischemic stroke patients to carry out daily activities. Patients’ self-perceived difficulties are also essential indicators in designing more personalized and effective rehabilitation programs.

This study aims to analyze the effect of body angle variations on propulsion force and water resistance in swimmers through a biomechanical approach. This research is motivated by the importance of movement efficiency in swimming, where suboptimal body positions can increase drag coefficient, thus slowing down swimming speed. The method used is a quantitative experimental design, involving professional and semi-professional swimmers. Instruments used include a motion capture system to record body movements, force sensors to measure propulsion and water resistance, and biomechanical software to analyze force vectors and drag coefficient. The results show a significant difference in swimming performance based on body angle variations. At a 0° angle, the average propulsion force is 145.3 N with a drag coefficient of 0.92. At a 15° angle, the propulsion force increases to 162.7 N with the lowest drag coefficient of 0.78. Meanwhile, at a 30° angle, the propulsion force decreases to 150.1 N, and the drag coefficient increases to 0.88. These findings indicate that a 15° body angle is the most optimal position, as it minimizes water resistance and maximizes propulsion force, thus improving swimming movement efficiency. The implications of this study suggest that biomechanical approaches can be used to design more efficient swimming training programs. The findings are also beneficial for swimmers and coaches in developing more effective training strategies.
