Red roses (Rosa damascena Mill.) are known to contain active compounds such as flavonoids, tannins, and vitamin C, which have potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. However, the utilization of rose flower waste after extraction remains limited. This study aims to formulate and evaluate gel preparations based on red rose extract and post-extraction rose flower waste as an innovation in natural-based topical formulations. This research is an experimental laboratory study using a post-test only design. Three concentration variations were formulated for both the extract (F1, F2, F3) and rose flower waste (F4, F5, F6) using HPMC as the gel base. Physical evaluations included organoleptic testing, homogeneity, pH, adhesion, spreadability, and viscosity. Data were analyzed descriptively and statistically using the Kruskal–Wallis test to determine the effect of concentration variation on physical parameters. All formulations showed good organoleptic and homogeneity results. The pH values were within the safe range for skin (4.75–5.92). Adhesion times met the criteria of >1 second, with a tendency to increase alongside higher concentrations of active ingredients. Spreadability fell within the acceptable range (3–5 cm), decreasing as viscosity increased. The viscosity values ranged from 20,150 to 20,182 cps. There was a significant effect of concentration variation on pH (p < 0.05), adhesion in extract-based gels (p = 0.021), and spreadability in waste-based gels (p = 0.024). In conclusion, gel preparations made from red rose extract and its waste can be successfully formulated with good physical stability and meet standard criteria for topical formulations. Rose flower waste has potential as an alternative active ingredient in the development of natural-based gel products.

Phlegmon is a serious infection affecting the maxillofacial area. Cases of phlegmon cause more than 50% mortality before the development of antibiotics, and 90% are due to acute infection of molar teeth. Examination of cervical vertebrae can help the diagnosis by using AP Axial, Lateral, right posterior oblique (RPO)/left posterior oblique (LPO) projections of 15º-20º cephalad, and right anterior oblique (RAO)/left anterior oblique (LAO) 15º-20º caudad while in the Radiology Installation of Yogyakarta City Hospital, using AP Axial projection 15º cephalad, Lateral and oblique (RPO and LPO) with perpendicular beam direction without other modalities such as MRI and CT Scan. This study aims to further examine radiographic examination procedures and projections of RPO and LPO with perpendicular ray directions. This type of research is qualitative with a case study approach at the Radiology Installation of Yogyakarta City Hospital from September 2024 to May 2025. Data were collected by observation, documentation and interviews with 3 radiographers and 1 radiology specialist. Data analysis was done by data reduction, data presentation and conclusion drawing. The results showed 3-position photographs to evaluate the overall condition of the cervical vertebrae and surrounding tissues. RPO and LPO projections are not angled according to the applicable SOP and have no significant effect, because the main focus of phlegmon is soft tissue evaluation and is not related to the evaluation of nerve abnormalities in the intervertebral foramen. However, for phlegmon cases with serious severity, other modalities such as MRI, CT scan or ultrasound should be added in order to detect soft tissue and the cause of phlegmon for further action.
