The modern doctrine of criminal responsibility is built on the premise of free will and individual deliberative capacity. However, advances in neurogenetics, particularly findings regarding MAOA-L gene expression, have presented a structural disruption to this framework. The MAOA-L gene has been empirically associated with impaired impulse regulation and increased aggressive responses, particularly in combination with childhood trauma. This study aims to evaluate how MAOA-L gene expression influences the capacity for criminal responsibility and to analyze the tension between classical legal constructs and biological determinants within the structure of culpability. The research method employed normative research with a conceptual approach. The results indicate that the dichotomy-based mens rea doctrine fails to accommodate the degree of control capacity shaped by neurobiological structures. MAOA-L cannot be treated as a basis for forgiveness, but rather serves as an evaluative variable in assessing the spectrum of legal responsibility. In this position, criminal law maintains the principle of individual responsibility but formulates it through a new framework based on actual capacity rather than a universal voluntaristic assumption. This reformulation is necessary to avoid disproportionate attribution of blame and to allow criminal law to move toward a system that is more adaptive to biological realities without falling into determinism.

Eleutherine bulbosa (Mill.) and Allium cepa L. (including garlic and onion peel) are medicinal plants that have long been traditionally used to treat cancer, diabetes, hypertension, infectious diseases, and inflammation. Recent scientific studies emphasize the importance of extract standardization to ensure consistent quality, safety, and efficacy. Standardization includes specific parameters—such as organoleptic identification, water- and ethanol-soluble extract values, phytochemical profiles, and determination of marker compounds—and nonspecific parameters such as moisture content, loss on drying, total ash, and acid-insoluble ash. Ethanol extract of E. bulbosa showed moisture and drying loss values below 10%, total flavonoid content of around 1.2%, and positive phytochemical tests for alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, and quinones. Onion peel extract contains a high flavonoid content (7.84 mg QE/g) with moderate antioxidant capacity (DPPH IC₅₀ 152.65 µg/mL), while fermented garlic (black garlic) contains more than 12% polyphenols and more than 2% flavonoids, as well as a high level of S-allyl-L-cysteine (SAC) as a stable bioactive compound. The pharmacological activities of these standardized extracts include strong antioxidant effects, α-glucosidase inhibition for antidiabetic activity, induction of apoptosis and anti-angiogenesis as anticancer potential, membrane disruption and enzyme inhibition for antimicrobial activity, as well as COX/LOX modulation for anti-inflammatory effects. These activities are directly correlated with the secondary metabolite composition of each material. With their phytochemical richness and diverse biological activities, E. bulbosa and A. cepa have great potential as raw materials for standardized herbal products. Further in vivo studies and clinical trials are needed to validate their therapeutic efficacy and to support the development of evidence-based phytopharmaceuticals.

The availability of electrical energy is one of the important factors during learning activities. However, because the electrical system can be said to be very complicated, starting from the generator center all the way to the consumer, there will most likely be a disruption that causes the flow of power to the consumer to be cut off. One of the factors that affect includes environmental factors, maintenance and other factors, so that the learning process is slightly hampered. The purpose of this research is to maintain electricity supply by automatically switching sources and utilizing renewable energy as a reserve for lighting students' practice rooms. Therefore, a system is needed that automatically regulates the switching of primary sources to backup sources. Automatic Transfer Switch or ATS is a device that automatically switches the main power source from PLN to a backup source such as solar panels by setting the time using Time Delay Relay (TDR). TDR functions to regulate the duration of the power source change operation to meet load needs, especially on small loads such as student practice rooms with a voltage of 220 Volts in one language. The advantage of this system is that it is able to automatically switch electricity supply between PLN and Solar Panels with a controlled time lag. The research method involves the installation of electrical panels and Solar Panels using Solar Charger Controller or SCC, Inverter devices. At the time of the study, the adjustment of the TDR setting to set the time lag on the ATS. SCC settings are carried out to obtain Inputs and Outputs in the optimal battery charging process where the measurement results show that When the load of the incandescent lamp is increased from 50Watt to 300Watt, the current increases from 4.47A to 25.2A, while the voltage decreases from 11.7V to 9.8V. In conclusion, the greater the load, the solar panel voltage decreases and the current increases. The results of the study show that the implementation of the automatic transfer switch system is able to automatically switch the electricity supply between PLN and Solar Panels with a controlled time lag.

The endocrine system is a ductless body control system that produces hormones to regulate various organs and physiological processes. Hormones act as important biological messengers in the human body. One of the most essential hormones is insulin, which plays a key role in blood sugar regulation. Insufficient insulin production or impaired insulin action can cause disruption of blood glucose control, leading to diabetes mellitus. Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by persistently high blood glucose levels caused by impaired insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. The purpose of this paper is to apply nursing care to Mr. N, a patient with endocrine system disorders: diabetes mellitus, treated in the Dahlia Ward of Dr. Soeselo Regional Hospital, Tegal Regency. This descriptive case study method was used to explain the nursing process in a structured manner. The main complaint presented by the client was pain in the wound on the left foot. Four nursing diagnoses were identified during the assessment, namely unstable blood glucose levels, acute pain, impaired skin/tissue integrity, and knowledge deficit. Nursing interventions were developed and implemented based on the Standar Diagnosis Keperawatan Indonesia (SDKI), Standar Luaran Keperawatan Indonesia (SLKI), and Standar Intervensi Keperawatan Indonesia (SIKI). The case highlights the importance of comprehensive nursing care in diabetes management, with a focus on blood glucose stabilization, pain management, wound care, and patient education. The results of this study are expected to provide additional references for clinical practice and strengthen the role of nurses in preventing complications of diabetes mellitus.

The digital age has brought significant transformations to various sectors, including religious scholarship, where traditional structures of authority are being challenged by the rise of digital media and influencers. This study explores the implications of digital disruption in the Islamic context, focusing on how digital platforms are reshaping authority and epistemic legitimacy. In particular, the emergence of "religious digital creatives" is analyzed, highlighting how these influencers, often with little formal training but significant digital communication skills, have redefined religious authority. This shift away from traditional scholars, such as the ulama, who have been the custodians of religious knowledge, raises concerns about the authenticity and quality of religious teachings disseminated online. The study also examines the role of algorithm driven platforms, like AI-driven tafsir apps, and their impact on Islamic legal derivation and interpretation. While these platforms enhance accessibility, they also present challenges related to standardization and authenticity. By comparing traditional Islamic epistemology, which balances divine revelation, human reason, and scholarly rigor, with the decentralized authority of digital platforms, the study underscores the need for maintaining scholarly integrity and moral responsibility in the digital era. The research also highlights the importance of community trust in traditional scholarship, which is undermined by the lack of accountability in digital content. Ultimately, this study provides a framework for understanding the evolving relationship between Islamic epistemology and digital media, offering recommendations for preserving the core values of traditional scholarship while embracing the opportunities of digital innovation.

Indonesia, as one of the world’s megabiodiversity countries, possesses vast tropical forests rich in biodiversity and natural resources. Recognizing their ecological and socio-economic importance, the Indonesian government has introduced various forestry policies to preserve forest ecosystems and improve community welfare. One of the key strategies is decentralized forest management, designed to encourage participatory, inclusive, and locally contextual governance. This study adopts a literature review method, drawing from previous research, scientific articles, and relevant policy documents. The objective is to deepen the understanding of deforestation reduction ef-forts, particularly in the context of limited awareness regarding community activities that may harm both social life and environmental sustainability. The primary focus is on assessing the im-pacts of deforestation on socio-ecological resilience, with special attention to the effectiveness of decentralized forestry policies. Findings indicate that deforestation exerts significant and multi-faceted effects on resilience, especially in communities highly dependent on forests for livelihoods and living space. From an ecological perspective, deforestation contributes to biodiversity loss, degradation of ecosystem services, declining soil quality, and weakened ecosystem resilience against environmental change. Such ecological disruptions threaten environmental balance and increase the risks of disasters and natural resource crises, which can have long-lasting implications. Socially, deforestation can undermine local livelihoods, exacerbate poverty, and weaken traditional knowledge systems. These combined effects reduce a community’s capacity to adapt to environ-mental challenges. Therefore, strengthening forestry governance—particularly through decentral-ization and enhanced community participation—is essential to curb deforestation and safeguard socio-ecological sustainability at the local level. Effective implementation requires aligning policy frameworks with local needs, empowering community institutions, and ensuring equitable access to forest benefits.

Batam City, as an industrial hub in the Riau Islands Province, plays a vital role in the region’s economic growth. However, a surge in inflation can affect investment interest, as investors tend to avoid areas with economic uncertainty. One of the main contributors to inflation in Batam is the food component, which experiences high demand, especially during certain periods such as religious holidays and the arrival of international tourists. Batam, which is not a food-producing area, faces significant challenges in meeting agricultural needs and currently remains dependent on supplies from outside the region. Geographic constraints, such as inefficient logistics, weather disruptions, and institutional weaknesses in the food sector, further aggravate inflation control efforts. In addition, hilly terrain and less fertile land limit the types of crops that can be cultivated, making food price stability critically important. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Low-Cost Market Operation Team Program (Tim Operasi Pasar Murah) in Batam City in 2024. The method used is Sequential Explanatory Design with a mixed-methods approach. Quantitative findings indicate that the average success rate of the program is 85.93%, with a target achievement rate of 90.12% and a satisfaction level of 86.11%. Qualitative results suggest that the policy of conducting low-cost market operations has been appropriate and carried out by authorized institutions, with strong collaboration between the government and the private sector. The program has succeeded in maintaining price stability ahead of the fasting month and Eid al-Fitr, receiving positive responses from the community and demonstrating good internal coordination. In conclusion, the low-cost market operation program in Batam City has been effective in curbing inflation before the fasting month and Eid al-Fitr. However, for comprehensive inflation control, relying solely on this program is insufficient. Additional strategies are needed to ensure sustainable food price stability.

Customer loyalty is a crucial pillar in the banking industry, especially amidst increasingly fierce competition and rapid digital transformation. Loyalty not only reflects brand attachment but also reflects the level of customer trust and satisfaction with the services provided. This study aims to analyze the role of customer value and service quality in building customer loyalty, with customer satisfaction as an intervening variable. The study was conducted at the BRI Tabanan Branch using a quantitative approach. The research sample consisted of 383 respondents selected using the Krejcie and Morgan formula. Data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using path analysis to examine the direct and indirect relationships between variables. The results show that customer value and service quality significantly influence customer satisfaction. Both variables also have a direct effect on customer loyalty, while also exerting an indirect effect through customer satisfaction as a mediating variable. In other words, increasing perceived value and service quality not only drives satisfaction but also strengthens loyalty, both directly and through the effects of satisfaction. These findings emphasize the importance of strategies to increase value and service quality as an effort to maintain loyalty amid changing customer preferences and digital disruption. For banking practitioners, the implications of this research can serve as a reference in designing more personalized, value-oriented, and technology-based service programs to increase long-term customer retention and strengthen competitiveness in an increasingly competitive market.

Waste management remains a serious problem, particularly in rural areas, which generally have relatively low levels of environmental awareness. Inorganic waste such as plastic, glass, and aluminum is a major concern because it takes hundreds of years to decompose naturally. This situation poses potential long-term environmental hazards, including soil and water pollution, and ecosystem disruption. Therefore, effective educational efforts are needed to raise public awareness of waste issues. This community service activity was carried out in Sarah Perlak Village, Sungai Mas District, West Aceh Regency. The focus of the activity was the installation of educational signs containing information about the decomposition time of various types of waste. Implementation methods included direct observation to identify specific problems at the site, informal outreach to local residents, demonstrations related to waste sorting, and the creation and installation of educational signs. The signs were made from wooden planks and decorated with real waste such as plastic bottles, aluminum cans, and used paper, thus providing a tangible visualization to the community. The results of the activity showed that the visual approach through educational signs was able to attract the attention of residents, both children and adults. The information was presented clearly and accompanied by real-life examples, making the message easier to understand and remember. In addition, direct interaction through outreach and demonstrations provided an opportunity for residents to ask questions and share experiences related to waste management. Overall, this educational medium has proven effective in conveying environmental messages, raising awareness, and motivating the community to start sorting and reducing waste at the source. Going forward, this program is planned to be expanded through training in processing waste into useful products, thereby not only reducing pollution but also providing economic benefits to the community.

The Geothermal Power Plant (PLTP) project in Batukuwung Village, Padarincang District, Serang Regency, has raised concerns among the community about the threat of environmental damage and disruption of the sustainability of the local agricultural system. So far, the community has depended on traditional agriculture that is closely tied to local social, cultural, and ecological values. PLTP projects, which are framed as part of the clean energy transition, actually create tensions between development and environmental conservation. This research aims to examine the social and ecological impact of the PLTP project on the lives of the village community. The method used is a qualitative approach with case studies. Data were collected through purposive sampling techniques for in-depth interviews with affected residents, community leaders, and environmental activists, as well as analysis of online media content and policy documents. The results of the study show that the presence of the project has created ecological and social vulnerability. Disruption to access to clean water, degradation of soil quality, and disruption of agricultural ecosystems are serious threats. In addition, the space for public participation in the project-related decision-making process is very limited, thus triggering resistance and horizontal conflicts. These findings show that the clean energy narrative does not always align with the reality on the ground. Therefore, it is important to consider the principles of ecological justice and the sovereignty of local communities in any energy development policy. This study recommends participatory dialogue and a thorough environmental evaluation before the project proceeds, so that development does not compromise the right of life of local communities and the ecological sustainability of the region. The active involvement of citizens as subjects, not objects of development, is the key to creating sustainable and equitable solutions for all affected parties.

This study aims to determine the effect of adding EM4 probiotics in various doses to commercial feed on the growth of jatimbulan tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L). Probiotics are known to play a role in increasing digestive efficiency, nutrient absorption, and maintaining the health of the fish's digestive tract, so they are expected to support optimal growth. The research method used was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with four treatments, namely: P0 (control/without probiotics), P1 (5 ml EM4/kg feed), P2 (7 ml EM4/kg feed), and P3 (11 ml EM4/kg feed), each with four replications. The parameters observed were the growth in length and weight of jatimbulan tilapia during the maintenance period. The results showed that the administration of EM4 probiotics at certain doses was able to provide a significant effect on the growth of tilapia compared to the control treatment. Treatment P2 (7 ml/kg feed) provided the best growth results compared to other doses, both in terms of increasing length and body weight. Meanwhile, administering probiotic doses that are too low (P1) or too high (P3) tends to be less effective in supporting optimal growth. This is thought to be due to the disruption of the microbial balance in the digestive tract when the probiotic dosage is incorrect. This research provides useful information for Jatimbulan tilapia cultivation practices, particularly regarding the use of probiotics to increase growth efficiency. Using the correct probiotic dosage can be a strategy to increase the productivity and sustainability of freshwater fish farming.
