Dermatophytosis is a superficial fungal infection of the skin, hair, and nails that is often found in tropical climates such as Indonesia, including Jambi City, which has high humidity and community habits that can support fungal growth. This study aims to describe the demographic characteristics of dermatophytosis patients who received treatment at a private dermatologist and venereologist in Jambi City throughout 2023. This study used a descriptive design using secondary data from patient medical records. A total of 399 patients who met the inclusion criteria were analyzed univariately and the results are presented in the form of a frequency distribution table. The results showed that tinea corporis was the most common type of dermatophytosis, followed by tinea cruris and tinea capitis. The majority of patients were male, aged 17–25 years, had a high school education, and worked as students. The most common locations of lesions were on the trunk and groin. These findings suggest that the productive age group is more susceptible to dermatophytosis, possibly related to high physical activity, excessive sweating, and suboptimal personal hygiene. This research is expected to be the basis for planning health education regarding the prevention of fungal infections and improving clean and healthy living behavior in the community.

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection leading to Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) remains a global public health issue, with 39 million people living with HIV worldwide in 2022. Although X Hospital in Malang City provides a comprehensive care program, internal data shows a significant level of non-adherence to antiretroviral (ARV) therapy, often in the form of irregular consumption or discontinuation of medication without medical recommendation. This observational study with a cross-sectional approach aims to identify the determinants of ARV non-adherence, involving 81 non-adherent AIDS patients at Hospital X through total sampling techniques. The characteristics of the respondents were dominated by males, highly educated, and working in the non-government sector, with the majority using the ARV regimen TLD, COTRIMOXAZOLE. The results of statistical analysis indicate that all eight determining variables tested show a highly significant positive correlation (p < 0.001) with non-compliance, meaning that the more severe the problems with these factors, the lower the patient compliance. Furthermore, the top five factors showed a very strong positive correlation (r > 0.80) with non-adherence, namely motivation/depression, social support, communication with service providers, treatment costs, and age or routine. These findings underscore that these five key determinants must be a crucial focus in designing and implementing targeted intervention strategies to effectively improve patient adherence to ARV therapy.

Traditional arts as part of cultural heritage face significant challenges in maintaining their relevance amid social and cultural changes. One example is Calung Jinjing, a Sundanese bamboo-based performing art that originated from the creative process of students at Universitas Padjadjaran and later developed into a cultural reference within the wider community. This study examines the implementation of the Three-Act Structure in the scriptwriting process of the feature video “Suara dari Unpad: Jejak Calung Jinjing” as a strategy for conveying cultural messages effectively. The research aims to explain how the Three-Act Structure is applied to organize narrative flow, build emotional engagement, and strengthen the delivery of cultural meanings within a feature video format. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach based on creative practice, supported by field research, observations, interviews with key cultural figures, and analysis of archival materials related to the history and development of Calung Jinjing. The findings indicate that the application of the Three-Act Structure—consisting of the beginning, middle, and ending acts—enables the scriptwriter to construct a coherent and communicative narrative that integrates historical context, cultural dynamics, and contemporary relevance. The structure helps transform research data into a compelling storyline while maintaining factual accuracy and cultural authenticity. This study implies that the Three-Act Structure can serve as an effective narrative framework for scriptwriting in cultural feature videos, particularly in presenting traditional arts as living social phenomena. Furthermore, the findings highlight the strategic role of scriptwriters in bridging cultural heritage and modern audiovisual storytelling.  

This study aims to analyze the process of creating an audiovisual feature that explores the commodification of calung jinjing as a cultural medium that has undergone a functional shift from communication to entertainment. The research employs a descriptive qualitative method using a practice-based research approach, in which the process of audiovisual creation serves as the primary method of inquiry. The author is directly involved as the Director of Photography throughout all stages of production, including pre-production, production, and post-production. The results indicate that the application of cinematographic elements—such as visual composition, lighting, camera movement, and lens selection—plays a significant role in strengthening the historical and cultural meanings of calung jinjing. These visual strategies effectively support the narrative in conveying the process of cultural commodification in a communicative and aesthetic manner. The study demonstrates that audiovisual feature production can function not only as a form of cultural documentation but also as an academic medium for interpreting and preserving local cultural values through visual storytelling.
