This research focuses on assessing the efficacy of a method that integrates Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) with Decision Trees for the detection of phishing URLs. Phishing represents a major cyber threat, where cybercriminals attempt to deceive individuals into disclosing sensitive information via fraudulent websites. As the frequency of phishing attacks continues to rise, there is a pressing need for effective detection and prevention strategies. In this investigation, a dataset comprising both phishing and legitimate URLs was utilized to train a CNN-Decision Tree model. The training phase includes feature extraction from URLs using CNN, which excels at identifying intricate patterns within the data, followed by classification through Decision Trees, recognized for their capacity to deliver straightforward and comprehensible interpretations of classification outcomes. The model's performance was evaluated across nine distinct scenarios to assess its effectiveness under varying conditions. The results indicated that the hybrid CNN-Decision Tree model achieved a precision rate of 94%, a recall of 90%, and an F1-Score of 92%, with an overall accuracy of 93%. These findings suggest that the model is not only proficient in identifying phishing URLs but also maintains a commendable balance between precision and recall. This research highlights that the synergy of CNN and Decision Trees can serve as a potent solution for phishing URL detection, significantly contributing to the advancement of enhanced cybersecurity systems.

Hypertension is a non-communicable disease that is often referred to as "the silent killer" because of its asymptomatic nature. Surgical education plays an important role in providing important information and motivational support to hypertensive patients, which has the potential to increase the effectiveness of treatment. In addition, family involvement is the main foundation for successful monitoring and prevention of complications, because hypertension management is highly dependent on effective self-care management. This study used a quantitative descriptive correlational research design with a cross-sectional approach. Data collection used a questionnaire given to 75 participants registered in the Hypertension Chronic Disease Management Program in the Bangetayu and Tlogosari Kulon Health Centers. Statistical analysis used the Somer'd correlation test. Among the 75 study respondents, 92% (n = 69) rated the role of nurses as good educators, while 88% (n = 66) reported good family support, and 84% (n = 63) showed good self-care management. Statistical analysis revealed a significant correlation between the role of nurses as educators with self-care management of hypertension patients (p=0.016, correlation coefficient=0.525). Likewise, family support showed a significant relationship with self-care management (p=0.01, correlation coefficient=0.491). This study shows that there is a significant relationship between the role of nurses as educators and family support with self-care management in hypertension patients in the working areas of Bangetayu Health Center and Tlogosari Kulon Health Center.

Background : Smoking is a dangerous habit that causes various diseases and death.  Passive smokers, especially children and teenagers, are more susceptible to disease than active smokers.  The prevalence of passive smoking in Indonesia is quite high, especially among women (66%) and teenagers (12.7%).  Jambi Province has a high number of active smokers (27.47%), resulting in an increase in passive smoking among children and teenagers.  Therefore, this study aims to analyze the factors that influence passive smoking behavior among elementary school children in Jambi Province. Methods : This research uses quantitative methods with an analytical observational design.  The design of this research is cross-sectional, where each subject is only observed once.  Data collection was carried out through approaches, observations and data collection simultaneously on students at Elementary School 59/IV, Jambi City. Results : The results showed that 9 respondents (13.8%) were passive smokers, while 56 respondents (86.2%) did not smoke passively.  Statistical analysis found a significant relationship between knowledge and attitudes and passive smoking behavior (p < 0.05).  However, the influence of peers and family did not have a significant relationship. Conclusion : This research concludes that increasing knowledge and positive attitudes can reduce the risk of passive smoking behavior in elementary school children.  Therefore, prevention programs should focus on health education and the formation of positive attitudes.

Hypertension is one of the health disorders that can be fatal and is a leading cause of death worldwide, both in developed and developing countries. In Indonesia, hypertension ranks among the top ten causes of death, contributing 5.3%. According to the 2021 Riskesdas, the prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia is 34.1%, with 8.8% diagnosed and 13.3% undiagnosed. Health screening (MCU) results from workers at PT. X in 2023 showed that 13% of 138 workers had hypertension, and in May 2024, the prevalence increased to 20% among 120 workers. Although the increase is not significant, hypertension remains the second most common disease in the top ten list at PT. X in 2024. This study aims to identify factors associated with the occurrence of hypertension among office workers at PT. X in 2024. This is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional design. The sample size used in this study is 90 workers, selected using a system random sampling technique. Data collection was performed using secondary data obtained from the MCU results in 2024. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test, which showed a significant relationship between age (p=0.000), family history (p=0.000), body mass index (BMI) (p=0.000), and stress (p=0.000) with the incidence of hypertension among office workers at PT. X. Based on the findings of this study, it is recommended that the company strengthen its health education efforts for all workers, especially those with a family history of hypertension, and enhance prevention programs by educating healthy lifestyle practices, maintaining an ideal weight according to BMI, and conducting monthly blood pressure checks.

The management and care of wounds play a crucial role in the healing process. Improper wound management can lead to infections, slow down the healing process, and even cause post-healing disabilities. Therefore, increasing knowledge about wound care is essential, especially in initial treatment, by conducting wound care training to prevent infections.The training was provided to the administrative staff and youth of the St. Francis of Assisi Church in Tebet. It was conducted using two methods: theoretical and practical. Participants were given pre- and post-training tests to assess their understanding and knowledge before and after the training. A total of 22 participants attended the wound care training to prevent infections. There was a significant increase in the average test scores after the training. It can be concluded that the training improved participants' understanding and knowledge of wound care to prevent infections.

Supervision is part of the directing function carried out by supervisors to improve nurse performance. Falls result in injuries such as broken bones or bleeding and can cause death. This is because nurses' lack of optimal compliance with the implementation of fall risk prevention SOP can increase the incidence of patients falling while being treated. One of the incidents of falls comes from not yet optimal SOP planning in an institution. The purpose of this research is to analyze the relationship between head of room supervision and the implementation of fall risk prevention SOP at the Sultan Agung Islamic Hospital.This research is a quantitative research with a cross-sectional approach. Data collection was carried out using questionnaires and observation sheets. The research sample consisted of 50 respondents. This research uses a total sampling technique and is processed statistically with the correlation test used in this research is the spearman rank test.The results of the spearman rank test on the room head supervision data with the implementation of fall risk prevention SOP obtained a p value of 0.000 (<0.05). For further research, it is recommended to expand the scope of research by involving more respondents and hospital institutions in order to obtain more generalizable results.
