Surgery is a medical procedure performed by opening a part of the body and ending with the closure or suturing of the wound. This procedure often causes anxiety in preoperative patients. One non-pharmacological intervention that can be used to reduce anxiety is classical music therapy, which helps promote relaxation and supports the healing process. This study aims to determine the effect of classical music therapy on reducing anxiety levels in preoperative patients in the implementation of nursing care. The method used was a case study design with a nursing care approach involving three preoperative patients experiencing anxiety. The intervention consisted of classical music therapy delivered through headphones for 5 minutes and administered twice to each respondent. The results showed that after receiving classical music therapy, the anxiety levels of all three patients decreased from severe anxiety with an average score of 19 to moderate to mild anxiety with scores ranging from 7–13. In addition, symptoms such as worry, restlessness, and tension also appeared to decrease after the intervention. It can be concluded that classical music therapy is effective in reducing anxiety levels in preoperative patients during the nursing care process. Therefore, nurses are expected to apply classical music therapy as one of the interventions for patients experiencing anxiety.

Immature permanent teeth with open apices and pulpal necrosis present a significant challenge in endodontic treatment. Apexification procedures have been developed to stimulate the formation of a hard tissue barrier at the apex, thereby allowing adequate obturation. Objective: This case report aims to describe the evaluation of apexification treatment based on radiographic findings. Case Report: An 8-year-old boy accompanied by his mother presented to PKU Muhammadiyah Surakarta Hospital with a history of a fall one week earlier. The affected tooth had previously received a temporary restoration from another dentist. According to the patient’s mother, medication had been placed in tooth to devitalize the pulp prior to temporary filling. Clinical examination revealed that tooth 11 exhibited a fracture involving approximately half of the crown and extending into the pulp chamber. Discussion: Initial radiographic examination in 2018 indicated that immature teeth have lower structural resistance compared with mature teeth; therefore, endodontic intervention such as apexification is required to establish apical barrier and adequate obturation. The material used for apexification in this case was a combining calcium hydroxide and iodoform. In contrast to the initial stage, radiographic evaluation in 2024 demonstrated that root development had progressed to stage V. According to Cvek’s classification of root development, stage V (Cvek stage V) represents a condition in which root development is fully completed. Conclusion: Based on long-term clinical and radiographic evaluation in this case, apexification treatment proved effective in stimulating the formation of an apical barrier and supporting root maturation in immature permanent teeth.

Hypertension is a non-communicable disease that can lead to cardiovascular complications and requires both pharmacological and non-pharmacological management. One of the non-pharmacological therapies that can be applied is warm water foot soaking and progressive muscle relaxation, which may help reduce blood pressure through peripheral vasodilation, stimulation of the parasympathetic nervous system, and decreased sympathetic nervous system activity. This study aimed to analyze the implementation of nursing care through warm water foot soaking therapy and progressive muscle relaxation to reduce blood pressure in patients with hypertension. The method used was a case study with a pre-experimental design using a one group pre-test post-testapproach involving three hypertensive patients, with the intervention administered once daily for three days. The results showed a decrease in blood pressure in all patients. The average systolic reduction was 5.3 mmHg, 12.3 mmHg, and 5.6 mmHg, while the diastolic reduction was 1.6 mmHg, 2.6 mmHg, and 4 mmHg, respectively. In addition, all patients reported a reduction in pain scale. It can be concluded that warm water foot soaking therapy combined with progressive muscle relaxation is effective as a complementary nursing intervention to help reduce blood pressure in patients with hypertension.

Chronic Energy Deficiency (CED) in pregnant women remains a health problem in Indonesia, including in Sleman District. CED can be overcome through the provision of supplementary foods (PMT) based on local foods that are high in energy and protein. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of local PMT on upper arm circumference (UAC) in pregnant women with CED. The study design used an analytical observational approach with a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique used in this study was total sampling, involving 47 pregnant women with CEM who received local PMT for at least 90 days in 2024 at the Cangkringan and Sleman Community Health Centers. The secondary data in this study were the results of LILA measurements before and after the provision of local PMT. The Wilcoxon Signed Test was used to analyze the difference in LILA. The results showed that the median LILA before PMT administration was 22 cm and after PMT administration was 23.6 cm, with an increase of 1.6 cm. There was a significant difference between LILA before and after local PMT administration (p = 0.000). After local PMT administration, 51.06% of pregnant women had LILA > 23.5 cm. It is hoped that further research can explore the intake of pregnant women with KEK during local PMT administration as additional data to examine the effectiveness of local PMT on LILA in pregnant women with KEK.

Law Number 17 of 2023 concerning Health (the 2023 Health Law) serves as a fundamental regulation governing various aspects of health services in Indonesia, including the operations of private hospitals. For private hospitals whose shares are listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX), the implementation of the 2023 Health Law has brought significant changes in both legal and operational dimensions. This study aims to examine the legal aspects of implementing the 2023 Health Law on the operations of IDX-listed private hospitals. Employing a normative legal research method with statutory and conceptual approaches, this study analyzes relevant regulations and doctrines. The results indicate that the 2023 Health Law expands the scope of hospitals' legal liability, comprehensively regulates the obligations and rights of both hospitals and patients, and imposes stricter sanctions for violations. Furthermore, the implementation of this regulation impacts the business and financial aspects of listed private hospitals, including expansion opportunities, shifts in cost structures, and stock market responses. However, challenges remain in its application, such as diverse interpretations of certain provisions and hospitals' readiness to comply with the established requirements.

Tight competition in the footwear industry requires companies to carry out production processes effectively and efficiently. Good production management will have an impact on the quality of the products produced and the achievement of the company's production targets. The purpose of compiling this internship report is to study and analyze the shoe production process based on the operational management perspective at PT. XYZ. The benefits of the report discussed are as a direct means in the world of work and as evaluation material for the company. The FAJAR Internship Activity of the Sharia Business Management Study Program in 2025 was carried out at PT. XYZ in the production department. Data collection was carried out using several techniques, namely direct observation of the production process, interviews with related parties, and documentation during the implementation of the internship activities. Based on the results of the analysis carried out, the production process at PT. XYZ is divided into several stages, preparation of raw materials, cutting processes, pressing and trimming (hotpress), to quality control. The implementation of operational management has been quite successful with a clear division of tasks, but challenges remain, such as limited production time and coordination between departments. The conclusion of this internship report is that the implementation of operational management has supported the smooth running of production activities, although improvements are still needed. It is recommended that the company improve coordination between departments and conduct regular production process evaluations to improve process efficiency and product quality.

State finances rely heavily on tax revenues, yet tax avoidance remains a persistent obstacle that can reduce government income. This practice is commonly associated with internal corporate conditions. Therefore, this research examines how profitability, leverage, firm size, and capital intensity relate to tax avoidance behavior. Employing a descriptive design with a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), the study evaluates ten empirical articles published between 2021 and 2025 in Sinta and Scopus indexed journals. The analysis indicates that the influence of these internal factors varies across studies. Profitability and leverage demonstrate contradictory effects, as strong earnings and higher debt may stimulate aggressive tax planning through tax shields, but may also restrain avoidance to preserve corporate image. Firm size likewise presents inconsistent results due to regulatory and public attention. In contrast, capital intensity generally shows minimal influence because investments in fixed assets are directed toward operational efficiency. These findings provide valuable considerations for policymakers to strengthen tax deduction regulations and encourage responsible corporate tax compliance.

This community service programme aims to provide education and training on the utilisation of the TikTok application as a digital business medium for the community of Rejosari Village, RT 03 RW 07, Karanggeneng, Boyolali Regency. The rapid development of digital technology and social media has transformed patterns of economic interaction from conventional systems into platform-based digital economies. Nevertheless, at the village level, the use of social media remains predominantly oriented towards entertainment and has not yet been optimally directed as an instrument for enhancing household economic capacity. The implementation method adopts an educative–participatory approach through the delivery of conceptual materials, demonstrations of TikTok features, and hands-on practice in creating digital business content. The results of the activity indicate an improvement in participants’ understanding of social media–based digital business opportunities, as well as the emergence of collective awareness to utilise TikTok as a means of generating additional income. This programme confirms that social media–based digital business education can function as an effective instrument for empowering rural communities in responding to digital economic transformation.

Difficulties in learning to read the Qur’an among adults do not always stem from the quality of teaching materials or instructors, but are often caused by the use of learning methods that are not appropriate to adult learners’ characteristics. Adults possess distinct psychological, physiological, and experiential backgrounds that require learning approaches different from those used for children. Monotonous and rigid instructional methods may hinder motivation and limit learning outcomes, particularly in Qur’anic literacy education. This condition is further compounded by physical limitations commonly experienced by adults and the elderly, such as dental and oral health problems, as well as strong regional language accents that affect pronunciation accuracy. In response to these challenges, the Tsaqifa method was developed as an alternative and practical approach specifically designed for adult beginners who have little or no prior ability to read the Qur’an. This method emphasizes simplicity, flexibility, and learner-centered instruction, enabling participants to gradually improve their Qur’anic reading skills in a supportive and non-intimidating learning environment. Through its application, adult learners are encouraged to regain confidence and motivation in studying the Qur’an, thereby contributing to efforts to reduce Qur’anic illiteracy among adult and elderly communities, particularly in rural areas.

Introduction: Tooth loss is a common oral health problem in the elderly population and can significantly impact quality of life. The use of dentures is an important solution to restore chewing function, aesthetics, and speaking comfort. This literature review aims to analyze the effect of gender on denture use in the elderly population. Method: The research method uses a narrative review approach by searching various scientific databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, and Science Direct. Result: Consistent pattern exists that older women have a higher prevalence of denture use than men across countries and research settings. Factors influencing this difference include socioeconomic factors, care-seeking behavior, perceived need, aesthetic considerations, and a higher burden of tooth loss in women. Furthermore, denture use is correlated with improved quality of life and overall health. Women tend to have higher aesthetic expectations and satisfaction, while men are more functionally oriented. Conclusion: Shows that gender is an important factor that needs to be considered in planning dental health services for the elderly population.
