Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, is a condition where blood pressure in the blood vessels consistently exceeds the normal range of 140/90 mmHg. Central Java Province has the highest prevalence of hypertension in Indonesia, at 13.4%. In 2020, Purbalingga Regency reported 268,936 cases of hypertension. According to data from the Bojongsari Health Center, there were 11,596 hypertension patients in 2023. Among the 13 villages in Bojongsari District, there are villages that have experienced an increase in hypertension cases of over 20% annually, one of which is Karangbanjar Village, with 542 cases of hypertension in 2022 and an increase to 858 cases (26%) in 2023. Hypertension treatment can be done through complementary therapy such as progressive muscle relaxation therapy and hydrotherapy. This Community Service Program (PkM) was attended by 20 participants. The results from the pre-test to the post-test showed an increase in the average score, from 59 to 81.5. The evaluation of participants' skills indicated an improvement, with 90% in the “good” category and 10% in the “adequate” category. In addition, there was a significant change in participants' blood pressure after receiving therapy. This activity was carried out using lectures and discussions, with PowerPoint presentations, leaflets, and videos demonstrating how to perform progressive muscle relaxation therapy and hydrotherapy. This educational activity showed an increase in knowledge among the elderly in performing progressive muscle relaxation therapy and hydrotherapy to reduce hypertension.

This study explores the critical role of law in preventing and addressing crimes within the trade sector, focusing on specific economic crimes such as corruption, embezzlement, market manipulation, and smuggling. These crimes are on the rise, primarily driven by social and economic inequality. Unequal wealth distribution, weak regulatory oversight, and legal loopholes create opportunities for individuals and groups to pursue illicit financial gains. Powerful economic entities often exploit these weaknesses to maintain monopolistic control, deepening inequality and obstructing fair competition. Moreover, inadequate law enforcement and a lack of transparency within bureaucratic systems contribute to the widespread practices of bribery and collusion between business actors and government officials. This undermines the effectiveness of existing regulations and diminishes public confidence in the legal framework. The consequences of such economic crimes extend beyond financial losses; they significantly affect the broader society. These include rising poverty and unemployment, the deterioration of public trust in legal institutions, and increased social instability, all of which threaten sustainable economic development. To address these challenges, this study applies criminological and legal perspectives, underlining the necessity of multisectoral collaboration. It advocates for stronger government and legal institutional efforts, along with active community engagement, to enhance oversight mechanisms and promote transparency. Firm and equitable enforcement of laws is essential in ensuring justice and restoring trust. Ultimately, a collective commitment to legal reform and accountability is vital to building a trade environment that is fair, inclusive, and conducive to long-term national growth.

The Umayyad Dynasty (661–750 AD) was the first Islamic dynasty to implement a hereditary monarchy and played a significant role in the massive expansion of Islamic rule. After the end of the Caliphate, power passed to Muawiyah ibn Abu Sufyan, who founded the dynasty and moved the center of government to Damascus. This study aims to examine the political, social, economic, and religious dynamics during the Umayyad Dynasty through qualitative methods and a literature review approach. The results of the study indicate that the success of the Umayyad expansion to Spain in the west and India in the east was driven by solid military strength, intelligent diplomatic strategies, and an established government administration system. In the economic aspect, the Umayyad Dynasty developed a taxation and currency system that supported the country's financial stability. Infrastructure such as roads, postal services, and communication systems were also improved to support connectivity between regions. In the social and cultural fields, interactions between various ethnicities and religions encouraged the development of science, art, literature, and architecture, including the emergence of a distinctive Islamic architectural style. However, the unequal social system between Arabs and non-Arabs (mawali), as well as discrimination within the government, fueled public dissatisfaction. Furthermore, sectarian conflict between Sunnis and Shiites exacerbated the domestic political situation. Inequities in the distribution of power, nepotism, and authoritarianism were the main causes of the weakening of support for the Umayyad government. Ultimately, this dynasty collapsed after being overthrown by the Abbasid Dynasty in 750 CE. This study emphasizes that the success of a government is greatly influenced by just leadership, an inclusive government system, and the ability to respond adaptively to socio-political challenges.

Employee performance is a critical determinant of service quality and operational success in hospitals. High-performing employees contribute directly to patient satisfaction, service efficiency, and overall institutional reputation. This study investigates the influence of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation on the performance of employees at Petrokimia Gresik Hospital, aiming to provide empirical evidence to guide strategic human resource management in healthcare settings. A quantitative research design was employed, with data collected using structured questionnaires. The respondents consisted of 85 permanent employees selected through simple random sampling, ensuring that the sample fairly represented the hospital's workforce. The questionnaire was designed to measure aspects of both intrinsic motivation (such as self-fulfillment, recognition, and meaningful work) and extrinsic motivation (such as salary, benefits, and job security), along with indicators of employee performance. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis to examine the individual and joint effects of the motivational variables on performance. The results revealed that both intrinsic motivation (β = 0.532, p < 0.05) and extrinsic motivation (β = 0.487, p < 0.05) had a statistically significant and positive impact on employee performance. The model showed that the combination of these two factors accounted for 68.2% of the variation in employee performance (R² = 0.682), indicating a strong explanatory power. These findings underscore the importance of a balanced motivational strategy in hospital management. Relying solely on financial incentives is insufficient; efforts must also be made to cultivate a positive and fulfilling work environment. Therefore, hospital administrators are encouraged to design integrated motivation programs that address both intrinsic and extrinsic factors to enhance employee engagement, productivity, and ultimately, the quality of healthcare services provided.

The growing environmental crisis underscores the need for education systems to foster ecological responsibility among students. This study explores the potential for multifaith schools to cultivate environmental moral education through an interreligious pedagogical model. By integrating diverse religious teachings on ecology, the proposed model aims to promote shared moral values for environmental protection and sustainability. The research addresses the gap in existing environmental education, which often lacks an integrated approach that incorporates various religious perspectives. Through a qualitative research design, the study analyzes curricula, observes classroom practices, conducts interviews with educators, and evaluates existing environmental education frameworks in multifaith schools. The study identifies key strategies, including the incorporation of eco-ethics from different religious traditions, project-based learning, and interfaith dialogues, as effective means of fostering ecological responsibility. However, challenges such as balancing doctrinal differences, overcoming biases, and developing inclusive pedagogy remain. The study emphasizes the importance of designing educational content that respects all faiths and promotes intercultural dialogue, thereby encouraging a collective commitment to sustainability. The findings suggest that multifaith schools can serve as powerful platforms for environmental moral education, highlighting the value of integrating religious perspectives into sustainability education. The study concludes with recommendations for incorporating interreligious eco-ethics into curricula and teacher training programs and suggests future research on the long-term impact of interreligious environmental education and its applicability in diverse cultural contexts.

This study aims to design and evaluate lipstick preparations by utilizing solid paraffin as the base ingredient and lanolin as an emollient and stabilizer. Solid paraffin was chosen because of its dense properties at room temperature and having the ability to form a stable lipstick structure. In addition, paraffin can provide a smooth, durable surface, and provide good smearing power. On the other hand, lanolin is known as a natural emollient ingredient that functions to moisturize and protect the lips from dryness. Lanolin also has water-retaining properties (occlusive) so that lip moisture is maintained even if the lipstick is used for a long time. The process of making lipstick is carried out by the melting method using indirect heating to maintain the stability of the material and prevent color and aroma degradation. All materials are accurately weighed, then put into beaker glass and heated over three legs using a Bunsen lamp. During heating, the ingredients are gently stirred so that all the components, including solid paraffin and lanolin, melt and mix homogeneously. Once the mixture reaches the desired consistency, the formula is poured into the lipstick mold and allowed to set at room temperature until ready for use. The results of the evaluation test showed that the combination of solid paraffin and lanolin was able to create lipstick with an optimal solid texture, even color, not easy to crack, and had a smooth application power on the surface of the lips. Lanolin plays a big role in providing a soft, moisturizing effect and adding a natural shine to the lips. Meanwhile, solid paraffin helps maintain the shape of the lipstick so that it doesn't break easily when applied. This study also highlights the importance of comparing the composition of ingredients to produce lipsticks that have a stable melting point, good application power, and appropriate adhesion.  

Environmental health risks, including air pollution, unsafe water, and climate-sensitive diseases, remain pressing global challenges that continue to threaten public well-being. Conventional monitoring systems are typically manual, costly, and geographically limited, making it difficult to provide timely and accurate data for intervention. This study explores how digital health technologies—specifically mobile health (mHealth), the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and remote sensing—are applied to strengthen the monitoring and management of environmental health risks. A structured literature review was carried out by synthesizing 87 peer-reviewed articles published between 2013 and 2024, using an evaluation framework built on keyword clustering, metadata filtering, and multi-criteria scoring to assess usability, scalability, interoperability, and relevance to health outcomes. Findings show that mHealth platforms are highly accessible and user-friendly but often face limitations in integration with broader health systems. IoT and AI technologies offer strong scalability and predictive capability, particularly in real-time risk detection, though they are hindered by interoperability issues across platforms. Meanwhile, remote sensing is powerful for capturing large-scale environmental data but lacks direct connections to health-specific applications. The analysis identifies a critical gap in the integration of these technologies, emphasizing the need for cross-sector collaboration to build more robust, interoperable systems. Additionally, the findings highlight the importance of ethical considerations, validation processes, and interdisciplinary approaches to ensure sustainable and impactful implementation. Overall, this study provides not only a comparative synthesis of current practices but also a methodological roadmap to guide future digital innovations in environmental health. By bridging technological potential with practical application, it underscores the urgent need for integrated strategies that can better address the growing complexity of environmental health risks in the modern era.

This community service activity aims to increase the capacity of residents of Tumpangrejo Hamlet, Ngenep Village, Karangploso District, Malang Regency through training in the manufacture and use of solar-powered lamps. The main problem faced by residents is limited access to electricity in some areas, especially in remote areas not yet covered by the PLN electricity network. Furthermore, there is a lack of knowledge about environmentally friendly renewable energy technology and its potential use in daily life. The activity method begins with socialization about solar energy, where residents are given an understanding of the basic principles and benefits of solar energy as an environmentally friendly alternative energy source. Then, practical training is conducted on assembling solar-powered lamp components, which includes installing solar panels, batteries, and LEDs. During the training, participants are guided to understand each stage of the assembly process and the importance of maintaining the equipment to ensure its long-lasting and optimal function. Technical assistance is also provided after the training to ensure residents can apply the skills learned in their daily lives. Participants are encouraged to assemble and maintain solar-powered lamps independently, so they do not solely rely on external parties for maintenance. The results of this activity demonstrated an increase in residents' knowledge and skills in understanding the concept of solar energy, as well as their ability to independently assemble and maintain solar-powered lamps. Furthermore, residents began utilizing solar-powered lamps for street and household lighting. This reduced reliance on conventional electricity sources, which are often limited and expensive. This activity is expected to become a model for community empowerment based on appropriate technology in rural areas, improving their quality of life through the sustainable use of available natural resources.

Cultural communication plays an important role in maintaining and preserving the values of traditional marine education. In this context, cultural communication serves as a bridge to maintain traditional values while adapting them to the dynamics of the times in the era of modern life, especially the Mandar sailors on Kerayaan Island who have long been known for their maritime traditions inherent in their daily lives. This study aims to analyze the impact of modernization on the traditional practices and maritime cultural identity of the Mandar community. In addition, this study also presents the fact that not only the Bugis tribe is known as reliable sailors in the region, but the Mandar tribe also has a long history as accomplished sailors. The method used in the research uses a qualitative approach with the type of ethnographic research. The data was collected through direct observation in the field and in-depth interviews with local communities. Social change analysis is used as a theoretical framework to understand the maritime cultural transformation that occurs. This research shows that the entry of modern technology has slowly but surely changed the way of life of the Mandar seafaring community. Various cultural symbols that exist today are more widely used for economic purposes only, no longer as a cultural identity that is upheld. This study provides a real picture of how this change at least gives hope, that there will be no total death of traditional sized, there will always be adjustment, imaging and re-creation of new traditional authorities. The ability to survive this tradition is at least quite justified because the emergence of tradition always presupposes the presence of a 'regime of representatives' who has the authority to interpret the symbols and sacred texts of tradition for the purpose of legitimacy of power through cultural communication. Keywords: Mandar Tribe; Culture; Technological Modernization, Social Change

The drama Woman Talking has many feminist values can be found, especially about gender equality, women’s freedom, and moving away from patriarchy. The values shown in this film are already being practiced today, where women and men are seen as equals in terms of rights and opportunities. These important ideas inspire writers to explore them more deeply, aiming to raise awareness among men so they do not look down on women. This study aims to examine the representation of feminism in Women Talking, a drama directed by Sarah Polley. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, this research analyzes the film’s narrative and dialogue to explore how the women fight for bodily autonomy, voice, and the freedom to choose their own paths. The results indicate that Women Talking has five of six types of feminism theory, which the liberal feminism is the largest one with 39%, and then radical feminism 32%, traditional marxist feminism 16%, socialist feminism 12%, and the last is postmodern feminism 6%. This drama has no dialog that talking about critical race feminisim. The findings show that Women Talking is not only a space for the expression of voices long silenced, but also a quiet yet powerful form of collective resistance against systemic oppression.

Increasing police accountability and professionalism is critical in addressing abuses of authority within law enforcement institutions. These issues have become a major concern, especially when abuses undermine public trust and the integrity of law enforcement agencies. To overcome these challenges, a comprehensive approach that includes both preventive and repressive measures is necessary. Preventive efforts such as ethics education, professional training, and mental development programs are essential in cultivating a culture of integrity and professionalism within the police force. These initiatives help officers to better understand their responsibilities, adhere to ethical standards, and manage the psychological demands of their roles. On the other hand, repressive efforts, including law enforcement and the imposition of strict sanctions for violations, act as deterrents to unethical behavior. The effective enforcement of laws and policies is critical in holding officers accountable and ensuring that those who abuse their power are appropriately disciplined. Analyzing the implementation of ethics in police duties and the factors that either support or hinder both internal and external supervision is also necessary. By identifying weaknesses in the existing system, law enforcement agencies can better target areas that need reform. Furthermore, strengthening transparency within the police force and reforming the supervision system are crucial steps toward building public trust. Public participation in external supervision mechanisms is also a key factor. When citizens are actively involved in oversight, it fosters a sense of accountability and encourages police officers to act with more responsibility. In conclusion, by adopting an evaluation-based approach and pursuing reforms aimed at enhancing accountability and professionalism, police institutions can improve their effectiveness. These reforms will promote fairer, more transparent, and responsible law enforcement, ultimately leading to greater public confidence in the police and their ability to perform their duties justly.

This study was conducted with the aim of determining the extent to which leg power training through the box jump method influences the increase in volleyball smash jump height in extracurricular participants at SMK Negeri 1 Kuningan. Volleyball requires good physical abilities, especially explosive leg muscle power, because this skill plays a very important role in performing the smash movement as the main form of attack. One form of training that is believed to be able to increase explosive power is box jump training, which is a type of plyometric training that emphasizes repeated jumping movements with high intensity. The research method used was an experiment with a one group pretest-posttest design. The study involved a sample group consisting of 15 students, taken using a total sampling technique from all volleyball extracurricular members. The data collection instrument used the vertical jump smash test according to Ali Maksum. The test was conducted in two stages, namely before treatment (pretest) and after treatment (posttest). The results of data analysis showed a significant increase after being given treatment in the form of box jump training. This is evidenced by a significance value (p) of 0.000 which is smaller than 0.05, so it can be concluded that there is a real difference between the pretest and posttest results. In other words, box jump training has been shown to be effective in increasing smash height. These findings indicate that training programs designed to incorporate plyometric elements, particularly box jumps, can optimally develop leg muscle explosive power. Therefore, this study recommends that coaches and sports teachers incorporate box jumps as a primary training component in volleyball skills development programs, significantly improving players' offensive performance.

Improving the accuracy of emission monitoring in the Continuous Emission Monitoring System (CEMS) is crucial to support compliance with environmental regulations, especially in gas and steam-based power plants (PLTGU). At PT Jawa Satu Power's PLTGU, the purging system on the CEMS sample probe is still performed manually and limited to scheduled preventive maintenance, potentially reducing emission data reliability due to particle contamination. This study aims to design and simulate an automatic purging system based on a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), taking into account technical parameters such as timer, gas pressure, temperature, and sample flow rate. The system design was carried out through the modeling of automatic control logic using CX-Programmer software, with a protection approach based on real-time conditions and timing. The design results show that the automatic purging system can improve cleaning consistency, reduce the risk of contamination, and enhance the integrity of emission monitoring data. This study is expected to serve as a foundation for developing a more applicable and integrated automated purging system for CEMS in the future.

The phenomenon of bullying that occurs in the pesantren environment is not only a social problem, but also reflects a crisis in the internalization of Islamic educational values. This study aims to examine the dynamics of bullying in Islamic boarding schools from a psychosocial perspective and Islamic educational values. With a literature study approach and qualitative content analysis, this study explores various theories, empirical findings, and expert views obtained from relevant journals, books, and scientific works. The results of the study show that the practice of bullying in pesantren often stems from power relations that are institutionalized through the hierarchy structure of seniority, as well as weak supervision of the process of internalizing Islamic values among students. The values of Islamic ukhuwah, justice, and compassion that should be the spirit of Islamic education are often eroded by a culture of silence, neglect, or even the wrong perception that bullying is part of discipline. In fact, the concept of Islamic education not only emphasizes the mastery of the knowledge of tools (tsaqafah), but also the formation of intellect ('aqliyah), soul (nafsiyah), and Islamic personality (syakhsiyah Islamiyah) based on a strong aqidah. Bullying prevention requires deeper Islamic character education, strengthening social control, and psychosocial approaches to maintain mental and spiritual balance of students. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of a holistic and civilized pesantren management strategy, by fostering an anti-bullying culture, creating a safe, harmonious, and harmonious learning environment that is in line with the main goals of Islamic education. Thus, pesantren are expected to be able to form students who are not only intellectually intelligent, but also have noble morals, high social spirit, empathy, and have a strong Islamic personality and full of integrity.

Each stage is designed systematically and reflectively to ensure that the intended message is well received by the audience. In the pre-production stage, the author designed a visual concept that aligns with the theme and purpose of the work, namely to depict the meaningful philosophy of the angklung sound. In the production stage, shooting techniques were carefully selected to ensure aesthetics and clear communication in each frame. The results of the application of appropriate shooting techniques are proven to be able to present the philosophical value of angklung aesthetically and communicatively. Through powerful visuals, viewers can experience the depth of meaning behind this traditional musical instrument. Furthermore, this work concludes with testimonials from young angklung players and an angklung performance at Saung Angklung Udjo, illustrating concrete efforts to preserve angklung culture. This section emphasizes the importance of youth involvement in cultural regeneration, demonstrating that with a creative approach, the angklung's sound philosophy can be revived and well-received by Generation Z. Therefore, this work not only conveys solutions in the form of discourse but also provides a concrete illustration of cultural preservation through contemporary media that is accessible and understandable to the younger generation.

The phenomenon of bullying among teenagers is an increasing and complex social problem, not only occurring in everyday life but also widely represented through mass media, one of which is teen drama. One popular media that highlights this issue is My Nerd Girl Season 1, which shows the reality of bullying in its various forms. The main character, Rea, is depicted as a victim of bullying who experiences verbal, emotional, and social pressure from her environment. This representation illustrates that bullying is not just an individual act, but part of a social construction that is full of meaning. This study aims to explore how bullying is presented in the drama My Nerd Girl Season 1 using Roland Barthes's semiotic approach. The analysis focuses on the denotative, connotative, and mythical meanings contained in the visual and narrative symbols in the bullying scenes. The research data in the form of scene clips showing forms of bullying, are then analyzed to reveal the underlying social ideology. The results show that this drama represents bullying in various forms, ranging from verbal, cyber, physical, to social. These bullying acts are presented as a form of power, domination, and group control over individuals. The emerging connotative meanings indicate that bullying is legitimized by adolescent ideologies regarding popularity, physical appearance standards, and social acceptance in the school environment. The myth constructed through the drama's narrative is that symbolic and social violence is often considered normal or even necessary to maintain a certain social status. Thus, My Nerd Girl Season 1 serves not only as entertainment but also as a medium for social reflection that reveals the reality of bullying among adolescents.  

Integral equations are essential tools in applied mathematics, with wide-ranging applications in fields such as physics, engineering, and finance. However, solving these equations presents significant challenges, particularly when dealing with complex, high-dimensional, or singular problems. Traditional methods, such as manual analytical techniques or direct numerical approaches, often struggle with computational efficiency, especially for large-scale systems, and may not be suitable for handling ill-conditioned problems. This study aims to develop an efficient numerical method for solving integral equations by combining adaptive quadrature techniques with Python-based iterative solvers. The adaptive quadrature method adjusts the step size dynamically based on error estimates, ensuring high accuracy even in the presence of singularities or near-singularities, which are common in many real-world problems. The iterative solver, based on Krylov subspace methods, enhances computational efficiency by reducing memory usage and improving the convergence speed of the solution. By using these techniques together, the proposed method significantly improves the computational time required to solve large-scale and complex systems of integral equations, while maintaining satisfactory accuracy. The results demonstrate that the adaptive quadrature technique, when combined with the Python-based iterative solver, offers a substantial advantage in both speed and precision compared to traditional methods. The proposed method is especially effective in handling complex, high-dimensional systems and ill-conditioned problems, making it a powerful tool for applied mathematics, physics, and engineering applications. In conclusion, this study presents a robust and efficient approach for solving integral equations, with potential for future research in solving non-linear and multi-dimensional integral equations.

The Abbasid dynasty was one of the most influential Islamic caliphates and left a long legacy in the development of world civilization. Established in 750 AD and ending in 1258 AD, the Abbasid period is known as the Golden Age of Islam due to its extraordinary progress in various fields, including politics, economics, and science. This study aims to examine how the Abbasid political and economic policies and the development of science that took place during that period were able to contribute significantly to the progress of global civilization. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive-historical approach through the study of relevant literature in the last five years. The results of the study indicate that political stability and a structured bureaucratic system provided a strong foundation for economic growth and intellectual progress. The Abbasid government established a center of knowledge in Baghdad known as Baitul Hikmah (House of Wisdom). Here, scientists from various religious and cultural backgrounds gathered to translate, develop, and disseminate knowledge from Greek, Persian, Indian, and other scientific traditions into the Islamic world. Some of the great figures who emerged during this period included Al-Khwarizmi (mathematics), Ibn Sina (medicine and philosophy), and Jabir Ibn Hayyan (chemistry). Their discoveries and work became the foundation for modern science. However, the glory of the Abbasids slowly declined due to internal conflicts, power struggles, and the weakening of the caliph's authority. The peak of the fall occurred when Baghdad was attacked and destroyed by the Mongols in 1258 AD. However, the intellectual and cultural heritage of the Abbasid dynasty continues to have an important influence on the development of world science and civilization to this day.

Community participation refers to the active involvement of citizens in various stages of the development process, especially at the village level. A concrete example of community participation can be seen in the case study of Bendhung Lepen, located in Mrican Village, Yogyakarta. Bendhung Lepen is an irrigation canal that stems from the Gajah Wong River. Before its revitalization, the area faced numerous environmental problems, primarily due to household waste and pollution that contaminated the waterway and negatively affected the environment and public health. In response to these issues, local residents, along with relevant stakeholders, initiated an environmental conservation program. The main goal of this initiative was to restore the ecological function of Bendhung Lepen and transform it into a clean, green, and beneficial public space for the community. This study aims to measure the level of community participation in the environmental conservation program. Data collection methods included questionnaires for quantitative analysis and in-depth interviews for qualitative insights into community involvement. The results of the study show that community members were actively involved in various phases of the program, including planning, implementation, and evaluation. Stakeholders involved in the program included community leaders, youth groups, environmental organizations, and village officials. The forms of participation extended beyond voicing aspirations to contributing labor (through mutual cooperation) and materials (such as donations or supplies). According to Arnstein’s ladder of participation, the level of community participation in this conservation program falls under the category of "delegated power," which represents a high degree of participation. This means that the community was not merely involved as passive participants but was given real authority in decision-making and program management. These findings indicate that genuine and sustained community involvement plays a crucial role in the success of local environmental conservation efforts.
