This study examines the digital literacy of university students in the context of Indonesia's evolving digital landscape. In the era of Industry 4.0 and the emerging Society 5.0, higher education faces the challenge of preparing students not only academically but also as responsible digital citizens. The research explores the level of digital literacy among students, identifies factors contributing to their limited ability to critically evaluate digital information, and proposes strategies to enhance digital skills. Utilizing a quantitative approach with an online questionnaire distributed to students from various higher education institutions, the study assesses competencies in technical usage, information evaluation, and digital ethics. The findings reveal that while a majority of students exhibit basic digital awareness and a tendency to verify information through credible sources, significant gaps remain in their ability to discern misinformation and protect personal data. The study recommends integrating digital literacy into academic curricula, increasing access to reliable digital resources, and conducting regular training workshops. These measures aim to foster a more critical, informed, and digitally secure student body, better equipped to navigate the challenges of the modern information age.

In the era of globalization, fashion accessories are no longer limited to functional purposes but have evolved into instruments of personal and cultural expression. Wallets, as one of the most widely used accessories, are now experiencing a shift in design orientation toward cultural values. This study aims to analyze the phenomenon of culturally designed wallets as an emerging modern trend through a comprehensive literature review. The research explores various academic and industry sources published between 2018 and 2024 to understand how cultural elements are integrated into wallet designs and how these influence consumer preferences.The study identifies three primary factors that drive consumer interest in culturally themed wallets: aesthetic value, sustainability, and innovation. Aesthetic value refers to the visual and symbolic appeal of cultural motifs, which resonate with consumers seeking uniqueness and identity. Sustainability reflects the growing awareness among younger generations—especially Millennials and Gen Z—regarding ethical consumption and the use of eco-friendly materials. Innovation in design, such as the fusion of traditional patterns with modern functionality, also plays a crucial role in maintaining market relevance.The findings suggest that culturally inspired wallets have a distinctive market niche, appealing to consumers who value both cultural heritage and modern fashion sensibilities. Moreover, these products support the preservation and promotion of local culture in the context of global commerce. This study contributes to the growing body of literature on culture-based product development and provides insights for stakeholders in the creative industry to enhance product innovation, cultural storytelling, and market competitiveness in the global fashion landscape.

Organisms and their natural environments are inherently connected and interdependent, with humans relying extensively on natural resources to meet daily needs and sustain life. Among them, indigenous communities maintain a distinctive relationship with their surroundings, guided by traditional ecological knowledge passed down orally from generation to generation. This body of knowledge, known as local wisdom, is deeply embedded within the natural, social, and cultural contexts of each community and plays a vital role in ensuring their long-term survival and well-being. The present study aims to examine the current socio-cultural conditions of customary law communities in three indigenous villages of Jayapura City—Kayu Batu, Kayo Pulau, and Skouw Yambe. Specifically, it seeks to identify the types of local wisdom practiced within these communities and to assess the efforts undertaken to preserve such traditions. A qualitative research approach was adopted, employing multiple data collection techniques, including direct observation, in-depth interviews with community leaders and members, and literature review of related studies and historical accounts. The findings indicate that, despite increasing pressures from modernization, urban expansion, and external cultural influences, these communities continue to implement local wisdom in managing and protecting their natural environment and resources. This includes sustainable harvesting practices, customary rules for resource allocation, seasonal restrictions to allow ecosystem regeneration, and culturally embedded conservation rituals. The endurance of these practices is supported by the functioning of customary institutions, strong kinship ties, community protocols, and collective decision-making mechanisms that integrate environmental considerations. In conclusion, the study demonstrates that the environmental stewardship, resource management practices, and cultural identity of these three customary communities remain actively upheld. This resilience underscores the critical importance of safeguarding indigenous knowledge systems as a foundation for environmental sustainability and cultural preservation in the face of contemporary socio-economic change.

and well-being of pregnant women. This study aims to examine the effect of the Rebozo technique in reducing lower abdominal pain in third-trimester pregnant women. A total of 65 third-trimester pregnant women at UPT Puskesmas Rum Balibunga participated in the study. The results show a significant reduction in pain levels after applying the Rebozo technique, with all participants reporting negative ranks (pain reduction). The Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test yielded a Z = -8.062 and p-value = 0.000, indicating that the reduction in pain after applying the Rebozo technique was statistically significant. This pain reduction can be attributed to the relaxation effect provided by the Rebozo technique, which helps relieve muscle tension and provide physical support to the pregnant woman's body. The study suggests that the Rebozo technique can be an effective non-pharmacological alternative for reducing pain in pregnant women, especially in the third trimester.

Toddlers are a vulnerable group prone to health problems and malnutrition due to their rapid growth and high nutritional needs. Nutritional status serves as an indicator of adequate dietary intake, commonly assessed through weight and height measurements. Malnutrition, particularly among children aged 2-5 years, often occurs as they transition to family diets while maintaining high physical activity levels. Appropriate complementary feeding starting at six months (MP-ASI) is essential to support optimal growth and development. The Complementary Feeding Program includes porridge for infants aged 6-11 months and biscuits for children aged 12-24 months, aiming to improve nutritional status, especially among low-income families. Supplementary feeding (PMT) is an intervention designed to enhance the nutritional status of malnourished children without replacing their main daily meals. This study aims to examine the effect of the supplementary feeding program on weight changes among malnourished infants aged 6-11 months at the Tiley Health Center. A pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was used with total sampling of 20 mothers with malnourished infants. Data were collected using questionnaires and weight observation sheets and analyzed using a paired t-test. The results showed a significant effect (p < 0.05), indicating that the supplementary feeding program improves infants’ weight.

The incidence of short toddlers or commonly called stunting is one of the nutritional problems experienced by toddlers in the world today. Stunting is a chronic condition in toddlers that describes inhibited body growth due to nutritional deficiencies in the long term. Stunting can have a bad impact on a person both in the short and long term. The adverse impact in the short term is disruption of brain development, intelligence, physical growth disorders, and metabolic disorders in the body. Meanwhile, the long-term adverse effects are decreased cognitive ability and learning achievement, decreased immunity, and a high risk of diabetes, obesity, heart and vascular disease, cancer, stroke, and disability in old age. Objective: To analyze the corellation between the level of knowledge and the incidence of stunting in toddlers at the UPTD Panarung Palangka Raya Health Center and to analyze the relationship between the age of the mother during pregnancy and the incidence of stunting in toddlers at the UPTD Panarung Health Center Palangka Raya. Methods: The design of this study is correlational (Non-Experimental), a type of cross sectional approach; the sample is 59 respondents at the UPTD Panarung Health Center. Results: Based on the results of the Spearman Rank statistical test, a value of p 0.000 < 0.05 can be concluded that H1 is accepted, meaning that there is a meaningful corellation between maternal knowledge and stunting incidence. And the results of  the Spearman Rank  statistical test obtained a value of p 0.009 < 0.05, it can be concluded that H1 is accepted, meaning that there is a meaningful corellation between the mother's age and the incidence of stunting. Conclusion: The results of this study show that there is a corellation between the level of awareness and the incidence of stunting in toddlers. And there is a corellation between the age of the mother during pregnancy and the incidence  of stunting in toddlers.

Character is a trait possessed by an individual that is embedded in the soul and body, which is implemented through actions. In this day and age Christian character education is very minimal in Christian students, this can happen due to a lack of provision from parents regarding Christian character. If this continues to happen and is not resolved, it will become one of the obstacles in growing the nation's successors who have the potential to advance the nation. Therefore, the school has a very big role in teaching this to students, so that students have the correct Christian character, especially in dealing with the social life of children in the present. In solving this problem, the authors use the stages which include: Observation, implementation of PKM, and evaluation. The result of this PKM activity is to increase students' awareness of themselves not to continue to be in bad conditions so that the potential they have can be developed properly

The immune system plays a role in protecting the body from foreign antigens that invade. Research on the immune system continues to evolve, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. Various studies have been conducted on substances and compounds with bioactivity as immunomodulators, which aim to enhance immune responses. One potential source of immunomodulator compounds is seaweed. This study aims to determine the effects of various types of seaweed on enhancing animal immune responses. The study was conducted using a literature review method of previous primary studies. Articles were searched using online databases PubMed and ScienceDirect. Seven articles were used in this study. The three groups of seaweed—red, brown, and green seaweed—demonstrated effects in enhancing immune responses in animals, as seen from the increased levels of IgA, IgG, and IgM, as well as Th1 expression. However, there are no recommendations for the optimal dose of seaweed to enhance immune responses.

Background: Hypertension in pregnant women in the third trimester is a serious health problem that can have a negative impact on the mother and fetus. The main contributing risk factors are Body Mass Index (BMI) and urine protein levels. This study aims to analyze the relationship between BMI and urine protein to the incidence of hypertension in pregnant women in the third trimester at the Marlianti Clinic, East Aceh.Methods: An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design. The sample was pregnant women in the third trimester who underwent pregnancy check-ups. Data were collected through BMI measurements and urine protein examinations, then analyzed using bivariate tests.Results: Of the 48 pregnant women with hypertension, 81.3% had a BMI ≥25 compared to 41.7% in the control group. The analysis showed a significant relationship between obesity and hypertension (p < 0.001, OR = 6.0; 95% CI: 2.407-15.291). In addition, 70.8% of mothers with hypertension had positive urine protein compared to 33.3% in the control group (p = 0.001, OR = 4.8; 95% CI: 2.046-11.531).Conclusion: BMI and urine protein levels are significantly associated with hypertension in pregnant women in the third trimester.

Green tea (Camellia sinensis) belongs to the genus Camellia from the Theaceae family. This plant has been used as traditional medicine for generations and is known to have various pharmacological activities. The purpose of this review is to discuss the benefits of green tea in reducing the risk of obesity by reviewing its botanical characteristics, phytochemical content, use and bioactivity to treat obesity obtained and compiled from literature searches through search engines such as Google Scholar, Science Direct, and PubMed. then discussed narratively. The results obtained indicate that green tea extracts and drinks can reportedly help increase the body's metabolism, which contributes to the reduction of body fat. Many studies report that this plant contains phytochemical compounds such as flavonoids, alkaloids, steroids, triterpenoids and carbohydrates. Epigallocationchin-3-gallate, L-theanine, and caffeine, which are respectively classified as flavonoids, amino acids, and alkaloids, are considered responsible for their pharmacological activity in treating obesity. EGCG has a hypocholesterolemic effect and suppresses cholesterol absorption in the intestine, L-theanine itself has physiological effects such as relaxation activities, and caffeine is useful in reducing food intake and has a thermogenic effect which can encourage weight loss.

Ferritin is considered a protein that contains iron and includes two types of subunits: ferritin light chain (FTL) and ferritin heavy chain (FTH), which increases when inflammation increases, especially in the heart and kidneys, and helps in converting ferrous iron into iron. The light subunit is present in the liver and spleen and has a role in storing iron (1). Coronavirus (COVID-19) caused by the new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is a disease It is new to humanity, as it is accompanied by symptoms during the disease, including blood abnormalities, with activation of the immune system and phagocytic monocytes, and damage to the lungs. In our study, we showed that ferritin is an indicator of the severity of the disease and mortality (2). Acute respiratory syndrome (Coronavirus), which causes pneumonia and damages the heart, liver, and kidneys, is caused by the appearance of acute inflammatory cytokines that lead to death (3). A cytokine is a small protein that transmits messages to help stimulate the body’s immune response, and its rise causes increased inflammation, and these Cytokines secreted by macrophages (TNF-α, IL-10, IL-6) where there is high inflammation in the plasma. An indicator of the progress and severity of the disease (3).

Speaking anxiety among students is a common phenomenon that affects their academic performance and personal development. This study aims to explore the reasons behind students' fear of speaking in various educational settings. Using a literature review method, this research examines previous studies related to psychological, social, and educational factors contributing to students’ reluctance to speak. The findings indicate that speaking anxiety is primarily caused by fear of making mistakes, low self-confidence, and negative social evaluations from peers or teachers. Additionally, classroom environment, teaching methods, and cultural influences also play a significant role in shaping students' willingness to speak. The impact of this fear extends beyond academic performance, affecting students' participation, self-expression, and future communication skills. Several strategies have been identified to reduce speaking anxiety, including fostering a supportive learning environment, encouraging positive reinforcement, and implementing interactive teaching methods. Educators are encouraged to create a more inclusive atmosphere that minimizes students' fear of judgment and enhances their confidence in speaking. This study contributes to the existing body of knowledge on students' speaking anxiety by summarizing key factors and offering practical implications for teachers, educators, and policymakers. Future research could further explore intervention programs that effectively address students' fear of speaking in different cultural and educational contexts.

A hernia is a protrusion of the abdominal wall into another body cavity (hip or pelvis, chest or thorax). One of the procedures performed in cases of hernia is surgery called herniorrhaphy. Surgery is an invasive treatment procedure through incisions to open the part of the body that will be treated surgically, which will cause pain. The pain felt after surgery is acute pain. Acute pain can complicate the healing process which can hinder the patient's ability to mobilize, rehabilitate and be hospitalized. One of the non-pharmacological therapies used to reduce pain is finger-hold relaxation therapy. Finger grip relaxation is a simple technique that combines breathing and holding a hand on each finger which can help control emotions and stress. It is hoped that this method can stimulate the brain to produce positive hormones and reduce cortisol secretion so that pain is reduced. Finger grip therapy intervention can help patients reduce the scale of pain felt after surgery. The case study used a descriptive method with a nursing process approach which was carried out on 3 respondents aged 67 - 76 using a One Group Pretest Posttest research design which was measured using the NRS instrument for 3 days. The results showed that there was a decrease in the pain scale in respondents after being given finger grip relaxation therapy.
