Edamame soybean plants are classified as a type of legume, growing upright and with dense leaves. Edamame soybeans can be consumed fresh or processed. One of the soils that can be planted with edamame is peat soil. However, peat soil still has obstacles such as acidic soil conditions and poor nitrogen (N) nutrients in the soil. Low nitrogen content in peat soil can be overcome by adding N fertilizer and photosynthetic bacteria. The use of photosynthetic bacteria in cultivating edamame soybeans can help increase nitrogen supply by fixing nitrogen (N) in the air. This research aims to determine the efficiency of applying a combination of nitrogen fertilizer and photosynthetic bacteria on the growth and yield of edamame soybeans in peat soil. This research was carried out in Pontianak City, with a research duration of approximately 3 months starting from 17 June - 29 August 2023. This research used a Completely Randomized Design consisting of 4 treatment levels, namely; n1= 25 kg/ha N fertilizer + photosynthetic bacteria, n2= 50 kg/ha N fertilizer + photosynthetic bacteria, n3= 75 kg/ha N fertilizer + photosynthetic bacteria, n4= 100 kg/ha N fertilizer + photosynthetic bacteria. The variables observed in this study consisted of plant height, number of productive branches, root volume, plant dry weight, number of root nodules, flowering age, number of pods and pod weight. This research aims to determine the efficiency of applying a combination of nitrogen fertilizer and photosynthetic bacteria on the growth and yield of edamame soybeans in peat soil. The results showed that the combination of nitrogen fertilizer and photosynthetic

Protecting the rights of children in inheritance cases is very important in Indonesian civil law. It involves things like legal ability, who takes care of the child, and making sure the child's rights are properly respected and met. This study looks into how the law protects young people in fights over inheritance, including how guardians are used, any problems where someone might benefit unfairly, and how judges should make sure the child's best interests are always considered. The study uses a normative legal approach, looking at laws and ideas by checking related civil law rules and child protection guidelines. The study shows that children cannot make their own legal decisions in court and need their parents or guardians to act on their behalf. But in real situations, there can be problems where the parents' interests might conflict with what's best for the child, which could affect the child's right to inherit property. Judges are important in checking if the guardian has the right to be in the case and making sure the claim doesn't harm the child. Legal protection in inheritance matters needs to be both official, by having proper representatives, and real, by ensuring fair treatment, clear laws, and special care for children's rights as legal beings who need extra protection.

Sugarcane cultivation often faces productivity losses due to poor sprouting and non-uniform initial growth. In bud-based nursery systems, seedling quality is heavily constrained by limited media volume and low buffering capacity. This study aimed to evaluate the synergistic effects of NPK fertilizer dosages and Gibberellic Acid (GA) concentrations on the growth and physiological vigor of sugarcane seedlings. The experiment was conducted using a Completely Randomized Design featuring nine treatment combinations with four replications. Parameters measured included plant height, stem diameter, the number of tillers, the number of leaves, and the chlorophyll index. The results demonstrated that the application of the NPK 150 kg ha⁻¹ + GA 50 ppm treatment significantly enhanced plant height, stem diameter, number of shoots, and the number of leaves compared to the control treatment. Statistical analysis revealed a significant interaction between nutrient availability and hormonal stimulation in overcoming the constraints of limited rooting environments. These findings suggest that precise integration of chemical fertilization and exogenous growth regulators is essential for producing high-quality planting material, potentially reducing losses in the subsequent planting cycle. In the future, it is necessary to confirm the use of a combination of NPK fertilizer with gibberellin during the vegetative period of plants so that the information obtained is comprehensive.

Immature permanent teeth with open apices and pulpal necrosis present a significant challenge in endodontic treatment. Apexification procedures have been developed to stimulate the formation of a hard tissue barrier at the apex, thereby allowing adequate obturation. Objective: This case report aims to describe the evaluation of apexification treatment based on radiographic findings. Case Report: An 8-year-old boy accompanied by his mother presented to PKU Muhammadiyah Surakarta Hospital with a history of a fall one week earlier. The affected tooth had previously received a temporary restoration from another dentist. According to the patient’s mother, medication had been placed in tooth to devitalize the pulp prior to temporary filling. Clinical examination revealed that tooth 11 exhibited a fracture involving approximately half of the crown and extending into the pulp chamber. Discussion: Initial radiographic examination in 2018 indicated that immature teeth have lower structural resistance compared with mature teeth; therefore, endodontic intervention such as apexification is required to establish apical barrier and adequate obturation. The material used for apexification in this case was a combining calcium hydroxide and iodoform. In contrast to the initial stage, radiographic evaluation in 2024 demonstrated that root development had progressed to stage V. According to Cvek’s classification of root development, stage V (Cvek stage V) represents a condition in which root development is fully completed. Conclusion: Based on long-term clinical and radiographic evaluation in this case, apexification treatment proved effective in stimulating the formation of an apical barrier and supporting root maturation in immature permanent teeth.

Long fishing is an environmentally friendly traditional fishing tool that is commonly used by fishermen to catch fish passively using bait, both in sandy waters and in coral reef areas. Grouper fish (Epinephelus sp.) tend to inhabit waters of a certain depth, especially in areas of coral fractures and dead corals that serve as shelter and foraging. Determining the right depth setting in the operation of a fishing rod is essential to optimize the catch. This study aims to determine the effect of the difference in setting depth on grouper fish catch in the waters of Pengambengan Beach and determine the most effective depth. The study used an experimental method with three depth treatments, namely 10 m, 15 m, and 20 m, each repeated nine times. Data analysis was carried out by Group Random Design (RAK) and ANOVA test. The results showed that a depth of 10 m produced the highest catch with a total of 35 fish (average 3.89 fish/trip), followed by a depth of 15 m with 10 fish (average 1.11 fish/trip), and a depth of 20 m with 7 fish (average 0.78 fish/trip). Statistically, the difference in depth has a real influence on the number of grouper catches. A depth of 10 m is recommended as the optimal setting for the operation of long fishing rods in the waters of Pengambengan Beach.

This study evaluated the feeding behavior and palatability of Etawa Crossbred (PE) dairy goats fed diets with partial substitution of Cnidoscolus aconitifolius forage. An in vivo field experiment was conducted using a Completely Randomized Design with four dietary treatments and three replications. The treatments consisted of: (T0) Leucaena leucocephala (lamtoro) as the basal forage; (T1) lamtoro supplemented with concentrate; (T2) lamtoro plus concentrate with 10% substitution of lamtoro dry matter by C. aconitifolius; and (T3) lamtoro plus concentrate with 20% substitution of lamtoro dry matter by C. aconitifolius. Parameters observed included feed intake (dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, and crude fiber), body weight change, and feeding behavior related to forage preference. The goats consistently consumed forage prior to concentrate and exhibited a higher preference for diets containing C. aconitifolius. Inclusion of C. aconitifolius reduced lamtoro intake; however, no significant differences were observed among treatments for dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, or crude fiber intake (P>0.05). Body weight change showed a positive tendency in goats receiving 10% and 20% C. aconitifolius substitution, while goats fed the control diet experienced slight weight loss, although these differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). In conclusion, C. aconitifolius demonstrated good palatability and potential as an alternative forage for PE goats when used as a partial substitute for lamtoro. Nevertheless, its inclusion at the tested levels did not significantly affect nutrient intake or body weight change. Further studies are recommended to optimize inclusion levels and feeding strategies to enhance its practical application in small ruminant production systems.

Background: Malaria transmission in Indonesia exhibits substantial spatial and temporal heterogeneity, particularly between stable endemic areas and remote outbreak-prone areas. Although routine surveillance is crucial for malaria control and elimination efforts, its limitations can obscure early warning signals, particularly in geographically isolated areas. Objective: This study aimed to analyze malaria epidemiology by integrating routine surveillance data from endemic primary health care settings with results from high-mortality outbreak investigations in remote highland districts in Indonesia, focusing on temporal trends, spatial clustering, Plasmodium species patterns, diagnostic gaps, and mortality. Methods: A mixed epidemiology approach was used. A retrospective longitudinal analysis of routine malaria surveillance data was conducted for the period 2023–2025 in endemic settings, while a cross-sectoral outbreak investigation was conducted in remote highland districts. Descriptive analyses were conducted to assess trends, demographic characteristics, species distribution, spatial heterogeneity, case detection methods, and outbreak-related mortality. Results: Routine surveillance data revealed fluctuations in malaria transmission, with a significant decline in cases in 2024 followed by a sharp increase in 2025. Conversely, outbreak investigations documented high case fatality rates, particularly affecting children and older adults, caused by delayed diagnosis, limited diagnostic capacity, and limited access to timely treatment. Conclusions: These results highlight the dynamic and context-dependent nature of malaria epidemiology in Indonesia. Integrating routine surveillance with outbreak investigations provides a comprehensive understanding of endemic trends and systemic vulnerabilities. Strengthening adaptive surveillance, improving diagnostic capacity, and implementing spatially targeted interventions are crucial for preventing outbreaks and reducing malaria-related mortality, particularly in remote and high-risk areas.

Adolescents affected by parental divorce face increased risks of mental health challenges, often exacerbated by custody disputes, post-separation abuse, and institutional inadequacies. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of trauma-informed, family-based interventions and custody-related policy reforms that promote adolescent mental health, with a focus on the integration of the Islamic principle of maslahah as an ethical framework. A systematic review was conducted using three databases (ScienceDirect, PubMed, Scopus) covering publications from 2000 to 2024. Inclusion criteria focused on empirical studies addressing interventions, custody policies, and mental health outcomes in adolescents aged 10–21. Findings reveal that Treatment Foster Care Oregon (TFCO) reduces behavioral issues and improves emotional regulation; Multisystemic Therapy and Wraparound Services prevent custody relinquishment and support family cohesion. Legislative reforms like the Family First Prevention Services Act have shown promise in redirecting funding toward prevention, yet face significant implementation disparities. Reports of healthcare obstruction and court-induced trauma remain critical threats to adolescent well-being. The review also found that custody loss, particularly among adolescent parents, correlates with increased substance use and long-term psychosocial instability. The integration of maslahah into legal and mental health frameworks provides a culturally grounded approach to trauma-informed reform. These findings emphasize the need for cross-sectoral collaboration, standardized trauma protocols, and culturally responsive service models. This study advances a holistic understanding of adolescent welfare in custody contexts and identifies pathways for ethical and sustainable reform.

All students who met the indications successfully received fissure sealant treatment without complications.Conclusion: The implementation of fissure sealants is effective as a simple preventive measure in preventing dental caries among school-age children and enhances students’ awareness and knowledge of oral health. This program is recommended to be conducted regularly to reduce the risk of caries

Acid mine drainage (AMD) is characterized by low pH and high concentrations of heavy metals such as iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) that exceed environmental quality standards, thus requiring effective treatment to prevent environmental pollution. This study aims to evaluate the ability of a mixture of activated carbon derived from pineapple leaves mixed with coal to increase pH and reduce Fe, Mn, and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) levels in acid mine drainage at PT Alreksa Bara Mitra. The process to make activated carbon involved preparation, carbonization, and activation processes on the pineapple leaves and coal separately. The following step is to mix but pineapple leaves and coal the has been activated. The treatment was conducted using an adsorption method with variations in adsorbent mass of 4 g, 8 g, and 12 g and a contact time of 30 minutes. The parameters analyzed included pH, Fe, Mn, and TSS before and after treatment, and the results were compared with the quality standards stipulated in Minister of Environment and Forestry Regulation No. 05/2022. The results showed that the characteristics of the activated carbon mixture met the SNI 06-3730-1995 standard. Increasing the adsorbent mass contributed to the rise in pH from 5.5 to near the acceptable range of 6–9 and significantly reduced Fe, Mn, and TSS concentrations below the permitted limits.The findings indicate that the mixture of pineapple leaf- and coal-based activated carbon is an effective, economical, and environmentally friendly alternative adsorbent for acid mine drainage treatment.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of group counseling integrated with self-management techniques in minimizing students' academic procrastination. Procrastination is a prevalent academic challenge driven by deficiencies in self-regulation, poor time management, and a lack of learning motivation. A quasi-experimental approach was employed, utilizing a pretest-posttest design. The participants consisted of students identified with high levels of task avoidance. The intervention was delivered through structured group counseling sessions focusing on self-monitoring, self-evaluation, and self-reinforcement strategies. The findings reveal a significant reduction in procrastination levels following the treatment. These results reinforce existing theories regarding the critical role of self-regulation in academic behavior. This study implies that organized self-management frameworks within group counseling can effectively foster student discipline and accountability toward their academic obligations.

The Shapiro-Wilk test confirmed the normality of the data, and a paired-sample t-test revealed a significant difference between the pre- and post-assessment (p = 0.000). This suggests that the use of interactive games significantly contributes to the enhancement of students' ability to recognize, understand, spell, and use vocabulary. These findings highlight the effectiveness of game-based learning in improving English vocabulary skills among vocational high school students, particularly in agricultural fields.

A fracture occurs when bone continuity is disrupted due to external pressure or force that exceeds the bone's capacity. Fractures constitute a medical emergency requiring immediate treatment. A primary surgical intervention for this condition is the Open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF) procedure, which aims to reposition broken bone fragments to their normal anatomy. This procedure is considered crucial for achieving proper bone union and minimizing the potential for postoperative complications. As a consequence of the surgical incision and tissue trauma, patients commonly experience postoperative pain. The management of this pain can broadly be categorized into two approaches: pharmacological and non-pharmacological. Among non-pharmacological methods, cold compress therapy has proven effective in alleviating pain in patients following ORIF surgery. The sensation of pain can be alleviated through the application of a cold pack by inhibiting sensory nerve conduction and suppressing local inflammation. Simultaneously, cryotherapy also reduces blood flow to the injury site, which in turn limits blood extravasation and the accumulation of edema fluid. A descriptive case study analysis of four patients with acute pain after lower extremity ORIF surgery. The effectiveness of the intervention was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS).: The application of cold compresses using cold packs for 3 days to 4 respondents before the cold compress was applied was on a pain scale of 6–7 (moderate to severe category), after the intervention the pain scale became 2–3 (mild category). The results indicate that cold compress therapy in patients with lower extremity post-ORIF fractures is effective in reducing pain levels. Therefore, cold compress therapy is recommended as a non-pharmacological therapy to reduce pain in patients with fractures after ORIF.
