Nutritional problems in toddlers remain a public health challenge in Indonesia, including in Tarakan City, North Kalimantan. The 2018 Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) data shows a high prevalence of malnutrition, severe malnutrition, and stunting in toddlers, with data showing that based on the body weight index (BB/A) the prevalence of malnourished toddlers is 3.9% while 13.8% of toddlers are undernourished. Based on the height-for-age (H/A) index, there are 11.5% of toddlers with very short nutritional status and 19.3% of toddlers with stunted nutritional status. Meanwhile, based on the weight-for-height (BB/H) index, the proportion of very wasted children is 3.5%, undernourished children are 6.7%, and overweight children are 8% (Riskesdas, 2018). Because of these problems, early nutrition education efforts are needed. This community service activity aims to increase the knowledge of toddler mothers about the importance of balanced nutrition for children, especially through the use of UHT milk as a nutritional supplement, as well as strengthening the role of integrated health posts (Posyandu) in monitoring child growth and development. Thus, this community service activity contributes to raising public awareness of the importance of meeting toddler nutritional needs and is expected to support government programs to reduce the prevalence of stunting in Tarakan City.

Anemia is one of the most common nutritional problems in the world and is mainly caused by iron deficiency. In Indonesia, the prevalence of anemia among adolescents remains high, especially in adolescent girls who have greater iron requirements due to growth and menstruation. Low levels of knowledge, unbalanced dietary patterns, and poor adherence to iron supplementation are the main factors contributing to anemia in this group. Therefore, efforts to increase knowledge through health education activities are needed. This Community Service activity aimed to increase the knowledge of adolescent girls about anemia prevention through improving iron intake and adopting a healthy lifestyle. The activity was carried out in Bongohulawa, Limboto District, Gorontalo Regency, on November 3, 2025, involving 40 adolescent girls. The methods used included health education, interactive discussions, demonstrations, and distribution of educational media. Evaluation was conducted using a pre-test and post-test. The pre-test results showed that only 25% of participants had good knowledge, while 45% had moderate knowledge and 30% had poor knowledge. After the educational intervention, the percentage of participants with good knowledge increased to 75%, moderate knowledge decreased to 20%, and poor knowledge decreased to 5%. It can be concluded that this educational activity was effective in increasing adolescent girls’ knowledge of anemia prevention and the importance of iron intake and a healthy lifestyle as early preventive measures.

Nutritional problems can occur due to two factors, namely direct factors and indirect factors. Direct factors are unbalanced nutritional intake and infectious diseases. The achievement of Exclusive Breastfeeding in Pesawaran Regency during 2014-2019 fluctuated. In 2014, babies who received exclusive breastfeeding were 30.19%, in 2015 it decreased to 20.85%, in 2016 it increased to 49.76% and in 2019 it was 50.48% and still below the expected national target of 80% 11. Based on the results of a pre-survey of 30 breastfeeding mothers, there were 17 mothers (56.6%) with an average age of 15-25 years and most of them with low levels of education who did not provide exclusive breastfeeding on the grounds that the mother worked and did not get support from her husband to provide exclusive breastfeeding (Pesawaran Regency Health Office). The purpose of this community service activity is to increase mothers' knowledge about fulfilling balanced nutrition and exclusive breastfeeding so that toddlers are free from stunting.

The management of Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) at PT Phapros Tbk still faces obstacles in the form of difficult document access, numerous files scattered across several folders, and MSDS presented in English that is difficult for workers to understand.

The digitization of MSDS through the QR-Safe digital innovation is highly effective in improving workers' accessibility to and understanding of chemical safety information.

Hypertension is one of the major health problems among the elderly and poses a risk of serious complications if not properly controlled. Slow deep breathing is a relaxation technique that can be used as a non-pharmacological intervention to reduce blood pressure. This study aimed to determine the effect of slow deep breathing on blood pressure in elderly patients with hypertension at the nursing home X Jakarta. The study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group approach. A total of 26 respondents were divided into two groups: intervention and control, each consisting of 13 people. The slow deep breathing intervention was performed for 10 minutes with a breathing frequency 6-10 breaths per minute. The results showed a significant reduction in systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the intervention group after the slow deep breathing exercise. Data analysis using the Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests showed a p-value <0.05, indicating a significant difference before and after the intervention. Slow deep breathing proved to be effective in reducing blood pressure and can serve as a safe, simple, and affordable non-pharmacological therapy for elderly individuals with hypertension. This intervention also has the potential to improve quality of life and reduce dependence on antihypertensive medication.

Sexual violence within the family is a serious criminal act that not only violates the law but also causes profound physical and psychological suffering for victims. The complexity of such cases increases as the perpetrators are often close family members, resulting in trauma and obstacles in law enforcement. Decision Number 2068/Pid.Sus/2020/PN.Medan serves as the basis for analyzing the extent to which legal protection can be provided to victims. The research problems addressed are: (1) what forms of legal protection are available for victims of sexual violence within the family under Indonesian positive law, and (2) how such protection is implemented in Decision Number 2068/Pid.Sus/2020/PN.Medan. The research method applied is normative juridical with statutory, conceptual, and case study approaches. Data sources include legislation, legal literature, and court decision analysis. The findings reveal that legal protection for victims is regulated under the Child Protection Law, the Criminal Code, and other legal instruments emphasizing preventive, repressive, and rehabilitative measures. The Medan District Court imposed a severe sentence on the perpetrator in accordance with the law; however, protection for victims remains limited to formal aspects without comprehensive psychological recovery programs. In conclusion, the protection of victims of sexual violence within the family has been clearly regulated on a normative basis, but its implementation remains weak. Greater collaboration between law enforcement authorities, child protection institutions, and professionals is necessary to ensure the holistic recovery of victims.

Moral learning in junior high schools often faces challenges in improving the understanding and application of moral values in everyday life, especially in the material of Trustworthiness and Honesty. This paper is intended to explain the design of the Problem-based learning (PBL) learning method as an innovation in moral learning of the material of Trustworthiness and Honesty in class VIII of SMP Muhammadiyah 4 Panarukan, which is expected to improve students' understanding through a more contextual, active, and applicable learning experience. The PBL method allows students to analyze real problems related to Trustworthiness and Honesty, develop solutions, and reflect on the application of these values in everyday life. This learning design method adopts two stages of the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) model, namely the needs analysis stage and the learning design stage. The results of the study indicate that the need for moral learning in class VIII of junior high school includes the importance of more interactive and problem-based methods, which can bridge the gap between moral theory and its application in real life. This PBL learning design integrates case studies, group discussions, and reflection to create meaningful learning experiences related to the values of Trustworthiness and Honesty. Although this design has considered various pedagogical and contextual aspects, the method is still in the design stage and has not been directly implemented or evaluated. Therefore, further research is needed to test the effectiveness of the PBL method in the context of moral learning at SMP Muhammadiyah 4 Panarukan.

Murder committed by children presents a dilemma in the criminal justice system, as it must balance the enforcement of justice with the protection of children's rights. This article examines the problematic nature of juvenile criminal liability in murder by comparing the perpetrator's legal approach to that of adults. Normative juridical research methods are used to explain legal provisions, court decisions, and related doctrines. The results indicate that juvenile offenders are not solely focused on their culpability but also on the child's psychological capabilities, maturity level, and social circumstances. Meanwhile, adult offenders are held fully accountable, with a focus on punishment. The main challenges are the difficulty of proving intent and the need for special mechanisms for handling juvenile offenders of serious crimes. This study provides for strengthening the capacity of law enforcement, improving child rehabilitation facilities, optimizing diversion mechanisms, and educating the public to support humane and proportional protection and enforcement of justice.

The growth in the number of vehicles in Surabaya has led to increased traffic congestion, particularly on the Perak Timur–Perak Barat road section, which serves as a major distribution route to the port and industrial areas. Problems arise at U-Turn points, where vehicle accumulation hampers traffic flow. This study analyzes traffic volume, travel time, queue length, and queue ratio at two U-Turn points on this section. The method used was a field survey with direct observation of vehicle volume every 15 minutes, vehicle classification, and queue length. Traffic volume was calculated using the Passenger Car Equivalent (PCE) factor based on the 1997 MKJI standards. The study results show that at Point 1, east–west direction, the highest queue ratio occurred on Tuesday from 11:00 to 12:00 (p = 4.84), while the lowest was on Sunday from 06:00 to 07:00 (p = 0.21). At Point 2, west–east direction, the highest queue ratio occurred on Tuesday from 08:00 to 09:00 (p = 6.18), and the lowest from 06:00 to 07:00 (p = 0.41). These findings indicate that during peak hours, traffic congestion increases (p > 1), causing long queues, particularly in the west–east direction in the morning. The performance of the U-Turn on the Perak Timur–Perak Barat road section needs improvement, with recommendations such as temporarily closing U-Turns during high volumes, providing alternative U-Turn lanes, and adding signs to minimize the potential for vehicle conflicts.

This research is motivated by several factors such as locally generated revenue, general allocation funds, special allocation funds, revenue-sharing funds, and capital expenditure. Some of the problems identified in this study include the realization of locally generated revenue that has never reached the budget target over four consecutive years, a percentage decrease in locally generated revenue while capital expenditure remains constant, and the absence of certain special allocation funds, which may affect capital expenditure. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of locally generated revenue, general allocation funds, special allocation funds, and revenue-sharing funds on capital expenditure. This research employs a descriptive quantitative method using data samples obtained from the Regional Financial and Asset Management Agency of Aceh Province in the form of Budget Realization Reports for the period 2019–2022. The data analysis technique used is linear regression. The results show that, based on the simultaneous test (F-test), locally generated revenue, general allocation funds, special allocation funds, and revenue-sharing funds have a positive and significant effect on capital expenditure. Meanwhile, based on the partial test (t-test), each of these variables—locally generated revenue, general allocation funds, special allocation funds, and revenue-sharing funds—also has a positive and significant effect on capital expenditure.

Diabetes mellitus is a non-communicable disease that causes global health problems in society. The International Diabetes Federation predicts that the prevalence of diabetes worldwide will increase to 853 million by 2050. The increase in the number of diabetes patients is due to unhealthy lifestyle habits, such as lack of physical activity. Therefore, interventions such as foot exercises and warm water baths are needed to help control blood glucose levels. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a combination of foot exercises and warm water baths in reducing blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes mellitus. The study design used a descriptive case study. The sample size was n=2 people, conducted from May 25, 2025, to May 27, 2025, in the Sukoanyar Village RT 03/RW 03 area, Pakis District, Malang City. The results of this study showed that after three consecutive days of intervention, there was a decrease in blood glucose levels in both research subjects. In Mrs. S, the initial GDS level of 360 mg/dl decreased to 240 mg/dl after the third day of intervention. Meanwhile, in Mr. D, the initial GDS level of 349 mg/dl decreased to 220 mg/dl after the same intervention. Thus, the combination therapy intervention of foot exercises and foot soaking in warm water can lower blood glucose levels in diabetes mellitus patients.
