The majority were diagnosed at WHO clinical stages I and II (95.6%). Most patients identified as homosexual (90.5%), while 9.5% identified as bisexual. Concomitant STIs were identified in 47.6% of patients, all of which were syphilis. In conclusion, HIV/AIDS among MSM in Jayapura predominantly affects young productive-age individuals with distinct social and clinical characteristics, emphasizing the importance of early screening and culturally sensitive, integrated HIV prevention strategies.

This study investigates the levels of asprosin and irisin in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and diabetic nephropathy (DN), and evaluates their relationships with insulin resistance, glycemic control, and renal function. Additionally, it explores their diagnostic performance as potential non-invasive biomarkers for the early detection of DN using ROC curve analysis. A controlled prospective study was conducted involving 130 participants, categorized into healthy controls, T2DM patients, and T2DM with DN. Serum asprosin, irisin, and insulin levels were measured using ELISA, while biochemical and renal parameters such as fasting blood glucose, HbA1c, creatinine, urea, and eGFR were assessed using standard spectrophotometric techniques. ROC analysis was employed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of asprosin and irisin. Asprosin levels were significantly elevated, while irisin levels were markedly reduced in DN patients compared to T2DM and control groups (p < 0.001). Moreover, DN patients exhibited higher levels of fasting glucose, HbA1c, HOMA-IR, creatinine, and urea, with lower eGFR, indicating substantial renal dysfunction. ROC analysis revealed that asprosin had an AUC of 0.910 (95% CI: 0.839–0.981), with 90.0% sensitivity and 88.9% specificity at a cutoff value of 11.27 ng/mL. Irisin showed an AUC of 0.886 (95% CI: 0.812–0.960), with 95.0% sensitivity and 71.1% specificity at a 158.25 ng/mL cutoff. Asprosin and irisin are strongly associated with insulin resistance and renal impairment in patients with T2DM and DN. Their high diagnostic performance supports their utility as promising non-invasive biomarkers for the early detection and monitoring of diabetic nephropathy progression.

Domestic violence (DV) is a hidden crime phenomenon with complex criminology, deeply rooted in the interaction between economic pressures and unequal social norms. Financial instability, such as unemployment and poverty, creates profound psychological stress on individuals, especially for perpetrators who fail to fulfill their breadwinner role, which is then expressed through aggressive behavior. Economic crises even causally increase stress, leading to physical or psychological violence. The dominant profile of perpetrators is men with low emotional control who are financially stressed and adhere to patriarchal ideology, while the majority of victims are women (housewives) who are vulnerable due to economic dependence and lack of access to resources, reinforcing the dynamics of economic violence as a systematic means of control. Optimizing response requires an integrated approach: strengthening law enforcement through sensitivity to non-physical violence and guaranteeing the protection of victims' assets, empowering victims economically through training and access to capital to foster independence, and transforming social norms through gender equality campaigns and deconstructing patriarchal culture that considers domestic violence a private matter.

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a global health problem with continuously increasing prevalence, covering the majority of diabetes cases worldwide. Persistent hyperglycemia in T2DM progressively damages the kidneys. Early assessment of kidney function, especially through the examination of urea levels and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) values, is important to predict CKD prognosis and guide therapeutic intervention. To discover the profile of urea levels and eGFR values in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients at ODSK Hospital, North Sulawesi Province. This study is a descriptive quantitative observational study with a cross-sectional design, conducted retrospectively using secondary data from the medical records of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients at ODSK Hospital, North Sulawesi Province during the period February 2024–August 2025 who met the inclusion criteria. From a total sample of 658 Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients, the majority of patients had high urea levels (53.3%). Based on sex, the proportion of high urea levels in males (57.2%) was higher compared to females (50.5%). Meanwhile, the distribution of eGFR values showed that the G1 category was the most frequent (23.9%). However, the majority of other patients (75.1%) were already in categories G2 to G5, which indicates a decrease in kidney function. This decrease in kidney function was slightly more detected in male patients (76.1%) compared to female patients (74.4%). Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients at ODSK Hospital, North Sulawesi Province, have high urea levels and the majority have decreased eGFR values.

This research examines the practices of a B4 class teacher at RA Takhrimah Tungkop in identifying children’s Multiple Intelligences (MI) through authentic observation during an activity of printing moon shapes using banana stems. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach with data collected through in-depth interviews and participatory observation. Data were analyzed thematically and supported by source and technique triangulation to ensure the validity of the findings. The results indicate that the teacher’s understanding of the MI concept was still focused on linguistic, logical-mathematical, and visual-spatial intelligences. Despite this limited conceptual scope, the implementation of authentic observation during the art-based activity successfully revealed a broader range of children’s intelligences. The moon-printing activity demonstrated indicators of visual-spatial intelligence through shape recognition and composition, bodily-kinesthetic intelligence through hand–eye coordination and motor control, and intrapersonal intelligence reflected in children’s ability to manage emotions, maintain focus, and show persistence during the task. Repeated observations accompanied by anecdotal records enabled the teacher to construct individual and continuous MI profiles for each child. These profiles can be utilized to design more varied, contextual, and child-centered learning strategies that align with the characteristics of early childhood learners in the Raudhatul Athfal setting. The practices observed also illustrate the connection between Gardner’s MI theory and Islamic early childhood education grounded in concrete learning activities. The findings support the development of child-friendly learning environments and encourage teacher creativity in conducting activity-based assessments. This study recommends strengthening teacher competencies through training in authentic MI assessment and further research using a research and development approach.

Rice is a staple food for nearly two-thirds of the world's population, including Indonesians. Rice generally has a high glycemic index (GI) and cannot be consumed by diabetics.  Pratanak rice has a low GI, so it is recommended for diabetics. The study aimed to evaluate the effect of parboiled rice on the amount of LAB (Lactic Acid Bacteria), pH, and SCFA (Short-Chain Fatty Acids) of diabetic experimental animals. The research method consisted of 6 groups of rats with groups 1 (Cr and Mg fortified parboiled rice), 2 (Cr, Mg and cinnamon fortified parboiled rice), 3 (nonfortified parboiled rice), 4 (ciherang rice), 5 (standard feed for healthy rats), 6 (diabetic rats). All groups of rats were adapted for 3 days with standard feed and treatment for 14 days. LAB, pH, and SCFA were analyzed, statistical tests using One Way Anova if significantly different, followed by DMRT test. Giving chromium, magnesium, and cinnamon fortified rice gave a significant difference in the amount of LAB, pH, and SCFA feces between the treatment group and the control group. Thus, pre-cooked rice fortified with Cr, Mg, and cinnamon has the potential to be a healthier food option for individuals with diabetes.

Wheat has limited nutritional content, therefore fortification with other ingredients is required to complement these nutrients, one of which is fortification with pineapple peel flour and chicken bones in noodle products.

All business actors responded positively because they now have a digital footprint that makes it easier for consumers to find business locations. Thus, this activity is expected to increase business visibility, the competitiveness of MSMEs, and the welfare of the people of Selayang Village

The growing interest in learning the Japanese language in Indonesia, driven by popular culture such as anime, creates a need to understand the effectiveness of different learning media. The non-uniform effectiveness of media for each individual poses a major challenge. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the effectiveness of both anime and textbooks by segmenting learner profiles and identifying key determinants of success using an artificial intelligence approach. This research employed a quantitative method through a questionnaire survey of 120 respondents. The data were analyzed in two stages: the K-Means Clustering algorithm was used to group respondents into learner profiles, and the Decision Tree algorithm was used to identify the most significant factors that differentiate these profiles. The analysis successfully identified three distinct learner profiles: "Intensive & Adaptive Learner," "Flexible Learner," and "Passive Learner." The decision tree revealed that the perception of textbook effectiveness and the frequency of anime use are the strongest predictors in determining a learner's profile, more so than theoretical learning style preferences. It is concluded that media effectiveness is highly dependent on the learner's behavioral and perceptual profile, which underscores the importance of a personalized approach in language education technology.
