In the fast-paced era of globalization, the role of youth is crucial in preserving and developing religious values in society. In Pulau Panggung Village, despite having significant youth potential, their participation in religious activities remains low. This has led to a decline in understanding and practicing religious values, especially among children. To address this issue, the implementation of the Community Service Program (KKN) focusing on Quranic reading and writing education using the Talaqqi method can provide a solution. The Talaqqi method, which involves direct interaction between the teacher and students, offers in-depth personal guidance in Quranic education. It is expected to enhance children's skills in reading and writing the Quran and their understanding of religious values. Additionally, the program aims to boost religious enthusiasm among youth through comprehensive education about religion and culture. By optimizing the implementation of this KKN program, it is hoped that youth involvement in religious activities will improve and religious values in society will be strengthened.

Gallbladder disease is associated with a malfunctioning gallbladder and highly concentrated bile, leading to conditions such as the formation of gallstones or cholelithiasis. Cholelithiasis can occur due to high concentrations of cholesterol in the gallbladder. Obstruction of the cystic duct, either by stones or functional issues, can cause acute inflammation of the gallbladder. Acute cholecystitis attacks are often associated with gallstones, or cholelithiasis. Common symptoms include right upper quadrant or epigastric abdominal pain, especially after consuming fatty foods, with additional symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, fever, and diarrhea. The development of this disease is believed to involve many factors and likely arises from complex interactions between various genetic and environmental elements. An imbalance in bile composition, characterized by excessive cholesterol secretion, reduced gallbladder motility, and the accumulation of mucin gel, contributes to the formation of gallstones. Gallbladder disease related to cholesterol results from a biochemical imbalance involving lipids and bile salts in the bile stored in the gallbladder. A 45-year-old patient, Mrs. D, has several risk factors that increase the development of the disease, and the following case report discusses the clinical presentation and laboratory examination results related to the onset of this disease. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed on the patient, and appropriate education was provided, illustrating the importance of intra-professional collaboration and positive outcomes for the patient.

The artisanal shipping industry in Indonesia, particularly in Batam and Tanjungpinang, has experienced significant stagnation and decline due to the aging fleet and fleet extinction. The background of this study is based on the importance of the artisanal shipping industry in supporting the local and national maritime economy, as well as the major challenges facing the sector in maintaining efficient and sustainable operations. The purpose of this research is to analyze the juridical factors that cause the non-development of the people's shipping industry in the area, as well as identify legal measures that can support the development of this industry.  The research method applied combines normative and empirical approaches through case studies in Batam and Tanjungpinang. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with boat owners, fishermen, government officials, and maritime law experts, as well as analysis of relevant documents. The research integrates John Austin's positive law theory, Lawrence M. Friedman's legal system theory, and systems theory to analyze interactions within the maritime legal system. The results show that burdensome regulations, lack of access to financing, declining competitiveness, as well as environmental impacts and socio-economic factors are the main causes of the underdevelopment of the community shipping industry. Strict regulations and high operational costs make it difficult for small boat owners to comply with regulations, while limited access to financing hinders fleet rejuvenation and upgrades. An aging and inefficient fleet lowers the industry's competitiveness, and environmental pollution from old vessels worsens operating conditions. Suggestions include revising regulations to simplify and reduce administrative burdens, providing accessible financing and subsidy schemes, improving port infrastructure, and training and certification programs for ship owners and crew. In addition, international cooperation is also needed to adopt technology and best practices in the shipping industry. The implementation of these recommendations is expected to support the development of the small-scale shipping industry in Batam and Tanjungpinang, improve competitiveness, and make a greater contribution to Indonesia's maritime economy.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus represents a persistent metabolic dysfunction marked by elevated blood glucose levels attributable to insulin resistance. Geriatrics pertains specifically to individuals aged 60 years and older. Managing diabetes mellitus necessitates intricate therapeutic interventions, often comprising single or combined pharmacological agents aimed at achieving euglycemia. The concurrent administration of multiple medications, termed polypharmacy, amplifies the likelihood of pharmacological interactions. This investigation endeavors to delineate potential drug interactions observed in geriatric inpatients afflicted with type 2 diabetes mellitus at Dr. Moewardi Regional General Hospital in Surakarta throughout the calendar year 2023. The study adopted a descriptive observational design employing a cross-sectional approach. Data collection was conducted retrospectively through purposive sampling based on the medical records of geriatric patients at Dr. Moewardi Regional General Hospital in Surakarta. Inclusion criteria encompassed patients aged 60 years and older diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus who had been hospitalized. Exclusion criteria included incomplete or illegible medical records, patients diagnosed with anemia and hemoglobinopathies, and those who expired during treatment. The findings revealed that out of 100 patients, 96 experienced drug interactions. Most patients (47.00%) were aged between 66 and 74 years. Females constituted a larger proportion (51.00%) of the patient cohort. Among hospitalized patients, 83 (83.00%) were admitted for 2-6 days. A total of 70 patients (70.00%) were prescribed between 4 and 13 medications. The predominant severity level of drug interactions was moderate, comprising 1,017 cases (74.60%). Pharmacodynamic mechanisms accounted for most drug interactions observed, totaling 1,054 cases (77.30%).
