Total cholesterol measurement is essential for assessing cardiovascular risk, but consistency between laboratory instruments must be validated for reliable results. Architect C4000 and Alinity C1000 operate on enzymatic principles but differ in system design, reagents, and supporting technology. This study aimed to compare total cholesterol measurements between the two instruments using a non-parametric statistical approach (Mann-Whitney test). A comparative analytical design was conducted with 100 serum samples obtained via purposive sampling and divided for measurement with each device. Statistical analysis evaluated differences, and mean differences were calculated using the Hodges-Lehman method. Results showed mean cholesterol values of 182.98 mg/dL for Architect and 182.37 mg/dL for Alinity, with no significant difference (p=0.9942) and a median difference of 0.0 (95% CI: -9.0 to 9.0). Data distribution was nearly identical for both instruments in terms of mean and spread. Therefore, both methods demonstrate comparable validity in total cholesterol measurement, as they rely on similar principles and technologies, with reagents calibrated to the same standards.

Hipodontia adalah kondisi medis yang dapat mempengaruhi gigi desidui dan/atau gigi permanen, dan sering kali menimbulkan berbagai tantangan yang memerlukan perencanaan multidisiplin. Kondisi ini dapat berdampak negatif pada aspek estetika, bicara, fungsi oklusal, serta kesejahteraan psikologis pasien. Salah satu bentuk perawatan yang umum diberikan untuk pasien dengan hipodontia adalah penggunaan gigi tiruan cekat (GTC). Tujuan laporan kasus ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana perawatan gigi tiruan cekat dapat diterapkan pada pasien dengan hipodontia. Metode yang digunakan dalam laporan kasus ini adalah memberikan perawatan dengan GTC pada pasien hipodontia, kemudian dievaluasi hasilnya setelah diberikan perawatan. Dalam merawat hipodontia, penggunaan gigi tiruan cekat sangat bergantung pada sejumlah faktor, antara lain ukuran, bentuk, dan warna gigi yang hilang, lokasi hipodontia, serta profil wajah pasien. Selain itu, aspek estetika seperti garis senyum, perbedaan panjang lengkung gigi, ukuran gigi, ketebalan tulang rahang, dan ekspektasi estetika pasien juga turut mempengaruhi keputusan perawatan yang dilakukan. Dengan pendekatan yang tepat, perawatan hipodontia dapat memperbaiki fungsi oklusal dan estetika, memberikan hasil yang optimal untuk pasien.

The distribution of inheritance is an important issue in Indonesian society which adheres to a plural legal system, namely Islamic law, customary law, and western civil law. One of the issues that often raises differences of opinion is the position of biological children and adopted children as heirs. In Islamic law, the right to inherit is based on the relationship of the nasab so that the biological child gets a clear share, while the adopted child does not have the right to inherit but can still be given a share through a grant or obligatory will. In contrast, Toba Batak customary law emphasizes the patrilineal principle, whereby sons, including legitimate adopted children through mangain customary ceremonies, are positioned as the successors of the clan and are entitled to inheritance except hereditary inheritance. This study uses a literature study method by examining literature related to Islamic law and Batak Toba customary law and qualitatively analyzed. The results of the study show that the difference in principles between these two legal systems gives birth to social and legal conflicts in the Batak Muslim society, especially when religious and customary values must be carried out together. However, opportunities for harmonization remain open through the application of the principle of justice that recognizes the position of adopted children in customary structures, as well as upholding sharia by granting rights through the mechanism of compulsory wills. These findings emphasize the need for an integrative approach in resolving inheritance disputes in order to create legal certainty, social justice, and maintain cultural and religious harmony.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menafsir ulang makna iman anak berkebutuhan khusus melalui sudut pandang teologi disabilitas dalam konteks budaya serta pelayanan gerejawi di Indonesia. Anak berkebutuhan khusus, seperti autisme, sindrom down, hiperaktif, cerebral palsy, dan hambatan intelektual lainnya, acapkali dilihat dari sudut pandang medis atau psikologis saja. Sedangkan melalui sudut pandang spiritual mereka seringkali diabaikan atau dianggap tidak penting. Umumnya dalam banyak gereja, konsep iman masih sangat idealis, bergantung pada kapasitas intelektual dan kemampuan lisan. Hal ini mengakibatkan anak berkebutuhan khusus acapkali tidak bisa mengekspresikan iman yang "benar" sehingga seringkali dianggap kurang memiliki iman. Studi ini memakai metode penelitian literatur dengan mengkaji berbagai macam teori dan pendekatan dalam teologi disabilitas modern, seperti yang dikembangkan oleh tokoh seperti Amos Yong, John Swinton, maupun Thomas Reynolds. Studi ini juga mengaitkannya dalam konteks sosial-budaya dan konteks gerejawi di Indonesia. Artikel ini menunjukkan bahwa anak berkebutuhan khusus memiliki kapasitas spiritual yang asli, meskipun melalui cara pemahaman dan mengekspresikan iman yang berbeda dari anak reguler. Mereka dapat juga berperan aktif dalam lingkup liturgi dan aktivitas gerejawi. Dalam wilayah negara Indonesia, norma atau etika lokal seperti gotong royong, empati kolektif, serta penghargaan terhadap perbedaan dapat menjadi landasan berpikir teologis untuk membangun gereja yang lebih ramah anak berkebutuhan khusus. Kesimpulannya, penelitian ini mengundang gereja serta komunitas Kristen di Indonesia untuk memandang anak berkebutuhan khusus bukan hanya sebagai pihak yang menjadi sasaran pelayanan saja, namun juga sebagai subjek yang memiliki iman yang utuh, yang berharga, yang memiliki kontribusi spiritual yang dapat ikut serta membangun tubuh Kristus dalam kebhinekaan.

Errors in the pre-analytical phase are a dominant factor causing inaccurate laboratory test results, including blood serum cholesterol analysis. Pre-examination specimen handling is crucial to ensure the quality of measurement results. This study aimed to compare serum cholesterol levels in blood frozen before centrifugation with those immediately centrifuged. The research method was analytical using a cross-sectional design. A total of 35 respondents were involved, consisting of laboratory staff, emergency room staff, pharmacists, and administration at Sinar Kasih GKST Tentena Hospital. Blood samples were obtained via venipuncture after participants had fasted for 10–12 hours. Each sample was then separated into two groups: those immediately centrifuged and those frozen 20–30 minutes before centrifugation. Data collection was carried out by examining serum cholesterol levels using an Erba Mannheim Chem-7 photometer. The results showed that the average cholesterol level in frozen samples was higher (161.4 mg/dL) compared to samples immediately centrifuged (140.45 mg/dL). The Mann-Whitney statistical test yielded a p-value of 0.006 (p<0.05), indicating a significant difference between the two treatments. This confirms that pre-analytical handling of blood specimens significantly impacts the validity of cholesterol test results. Therefore, careful attention to the pre-analytical stage is essential to ensure the accuracy of laboratory results.

Bluru Kidul Village is an area located near the northeastern coast of Sidoarjo, where its geographical position provides significant benefits for the community. Consequently, the majority of residents work as fishermen and live side by side with the marine ecosystem. Due to the existence of Bluru Kidul Village, Sidoarjo City is often referred to as a fisheries or coastal city. The fish resources in these waters are dominated by small pelagic fish, large pelagic fish, and demersal fish. One of the most widely used fishing gears is the gill net. This study applied treatments with soaking durations of 2 hours, 3 hours, and 4 hours. The objectives of this research were to identify the composition of gill net catches, analyze the effect of different soaking times on gill net catches, and determine the optimal soaking duration for catching Indian mackerel (Rastrelliger) using gill nets. Data analysis was conducted using statistical methods, including analysis of variance (ANOVA) and normality tests to ensure data suitability. To determine whether soaking duration had a significant effect, a further statistical test, namely the Least Significant Difference (LSD) test, was applied to identify which soaking time produced the best catch of Indian mackerel. The results indicated that there were significant differences in catch variables between the 4-hour treatment and the 3-hour and 2-hour treatments, whereas the difference between the 3-hour and 2-hour treatments was not significant. This finding demonstrates that the 4-hour soaking duration resulted in significantly different catch outcomes compared to the 3-hour and 2-hour durations, but no significant difference was observed between the 3-hour and 2-hour treatments.

This study aims to analyze the effect of fishing ground differences between WPPNRI 711 and 712 on squid (Loligo spp) catches using boat-operated falling nets landed at Nusantara Fishing Port Muara Angke, Jakarta. The research employed a quantitative approach with a two-treatment experimental design, involving fishing operations in two different areas with an equal number of trips (six trips each), analyzed using an independent samples t-test. The results indicated no statistically significant difference in catches between WPPNRI 711 and 712 (p = 0.747 > 0.05). However, production data revealed variations in catch differences, with CPUE (Catch Per Unit Effort) in WPP 711 being higher than in WPP 712. These variations are likely influenced by environmental factors, oceanographic conditions, fishing pressure, and squid spawning seasons. The implications of this study highlight that differences in fishing grounds do not always produce significant statistical impacts on catches but remain crucial for sustainable squid fisheries management. Policy recommendations include regulating fishing efforts based on spawning seasons, routine stock monitoring through CPUE, and adopting advanced fishing technologies to enhance efficiency and sustainability. This research provides valuable input for fisheries management and supports sustainable utilization of squid resources at Muara Angke.

This study investigates the differences in customer satisfaction levels toward the services of Bank Syariah Indonesia by employing a nonparametric statistical approach. Customer satisfaction is a critical benchmark in Islamic banking, as it not only reflects the quality of services but also the extent to which sharia compliance is embedded in financial practices. Given that satisfaction data are generally ordinal and may not fulfill the assumptions of normal distribution, nonparametric methods such as the Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests were selected as the primary analytical tools. This research adopts a qualitative library-based method by reviewing relevant literature, scientific articles, and previous empirical studies to construct a comprehensive understanding of customer satisfaction measurement within Islamic banking. The findings highlight that variations in satisfaction are influenced by multiple factors, including service speed, staff friendliness, accessibility of digital platforms, and clarity of sharia principles applied in daily operations. Results further suggest that demographic characteristics and service usage frequency significantly shape satisfaction differences across customer groups. Theoretically, this study enriches the body of knowledge on the application of nonparametric statistics in Islamic banking research, while practically, it provides actionable insights for Bank Syariah Indonesia in formulating adaptive service strategies. These contributions are expected to assist the bank in strengthening customer loyalty, enhancing competitiveness, and sustaining growth in the dynamic modern banking industry.

Capture fisheries are one of the most contributing sectors in producing fishery products.The fourfinger threadfin (Eleutheronema tetradactylum) is one of the key commodities in the capture fisheries sector of Pasuruan City. The catch yield of this species is influenced by the mesh size of the gillnet used. This study aimed to determine the effect of different mesh sizes on the catch yield of fourfinger threadfin and to identify the most effective mesh size. The research was conducted using an experimental fishing method with a Randomized Block Design (RBD) comprising three gillnet mesh size treatments: 1.75 inches, 2.5 inches, and 4 inches, with nine fishing trips. Data on catch weight and number were analyzed using a One-Way ANOVA followed by the Least Significant Difference (LSD) test. The ANOVA results showed an F-value of 10.083 with a significance level of 0.001 (p-value < 0.05), indicating a significant difference in the catch weight of fourfinger threadfin (Eleutheronema tetradactylum) among the mesh size treatments. This finding suggests that mesh size has a significant effect on catch weight, with the 2.5-inch mesh size being the most effective for catching fourfinger threadfin in the Madura Strait, as it produced the optimal catch weight compared to 1.75-inch and 4-inch mesh sizes.

This study aims to analyze the differences between various extraction techniques and their relationship to the yield and biological activity of phytochemical compounds derived from natural materials. A systematic literature review was conducted by analyzing relevant and reliable scientific publications published within the last five years. The findings indicate that extraction methods such as maceration, soxhletation, microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), and ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) demonstrate varying levels of effectiveness depending on the type of material, solvent polarity, extraction temperature, and duration of the process. Modern extraction methods, particularly sonication, MAE, and UAE, have been shown to produce higher yields with enhanced biological activity while offering greater efficiency in terms of reduced time and solvent consumption. On the other hand, conventional techniques such as maceration and soxhletation remain relevant, particularly for thermolabile compounds that are sensitive to high temperatures. The selection of an appropriate extraction method plays a crucial role in obtaining high-quality extracts that can serve as potential raw materials for phytopharmaceuticals, functional foods, dietary supplements, and other natural products. This review not only highlights the advantages and limitations of each technique but also emphasizes the importance of aligning method selection with specific research objectives and compound characteristics. Overall, this study provides a theoretical foundation for future experimental research and serves as an initial guideline for determining extraction strategies based on efficiency, effectiveness, and sustainability.

Kangaroo mother care is a treatment for low-birth-weight infants that involves direct skin-to-skin contact between the infant and the mother (skin-to-skin contact). This provides health and psychological benefits, particularly in providing warmth to the infant, enhancing maternal bonding, increasing maternal trust and satisfaction, and reducing stress. The difference in body temperature of low-birth-weight infants treated with kangaroo mother care for one hour and three hours. Research Method: The research design used was a quasi-experimental, pre-post test with control group design, which involves administering treatment or intervention to the experimental group and then measuring and analyzing the effects of the treatment. The sample size for this study was 30 people. Bivariate analysis was conducted using the independent t-test and paired t-test. The results showed that the infant's body temperature before the kangaroo mother care intervention was in the below-normal. The infant's body temperature after the intervention was in to normal range. The infant's body temperature after the kangaroo mother care intervention in the one-hour had a p value = 0,000 or <0,05). The infant's body temperature after the intervention was in to normal range. The infant's body temperature after the kangaroo mother care intervention in the three-hour had a p value = 0,000 or <0,05). The infant's body temperature after the kangaroo mother care intervention in the one-hour had a p value = 0,000 or <0,05). The infant's body temperature after the kangaroo mother care intervention in the three-hour had a p value = 0,000 or <0,05).
