Given the important objectives that banks strive to achieve through financial stability and their role in ensuring its continuity and ability to face various economic challenges, many have expanded their policies beyond their traditional functions by adopting a range of additional practices and activities that contribute to strengthening their developmental role in society. Among the most prominent of these practices are corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities, which have become a crucial aspect of the work of contemporary financial institutions. In this context, this research highlights CSR practices in banks. It relied on a sample of nine Iraqi banks listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange, which are characterized by their continued banking operations and regular publication of their annual financial reports. The research period was set from 2014 to 2023, and included a set of statistical tests that incorporated a number of financial determinants as control variables to determine their contribution to enhancing the impact of CSR when included alongside it, and to define the nature of the relationship between the research variables. We have reached a number of conclusions, most notably that when regulatory variables are included in the analysis model, this effect becomes statistically insignificant, which indicates that banks’ interest in internal financial factors still outweighs their interest in social aspects.

Based on the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey, the prevalence of overweight among adults reached 23.4% nationally and 24.5% in East Java Province. This condition highlights the need for food innovation, particularly high-fiber snacks suitable for overweight adults. This study aimed to develop cereal based on okara (soy pulp) flour and mung bean flour as an alternative high-fiber food product. Organoleptic testing was conducted on 30 semi-trained panelists evaluating color, aroma, texture, and taste using hedonic and hedonic quality tests. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal–Wallis test followed by the Mann–Whitney test, while nutrient content analysis was analyzed using One Way ANOVA followed by Duncan’s post hoc test. The results showed that in the hedonic test, color, texture, and taste parameters were significantly different (p<0.05), while aroma was not significantly different (p>0.05). In the hedonic quality test, color and taste showed significant differences (p<0.05), whereas aroma and texture did not (p>0.05). Overall, formulation 922 was the most preferred by panelists. The nutritional content of the cereal ranged from 407–410 kcal for energy, 76.44–77.53% carbohydrates, 8.91–9.66% protein, 6.80–7.30% fat, 5.20–5.51% moisture, 1.26–1.41% ash, and 9.72–10.90% total dietary fiber. The developed cereal is classified as a high-fiber food and has potential as a healthy snack for overweight adults.

Picky eating behavior is a common feeding problem among preschool-aged children. Children who exhibit picky eating tendencies often reject various types of food, especially new or unfamiliar ones, placing them at risk of an imbalanced intake of macronutrients such as energy, protein, fat, and carbohydrates. Inadequate nutritional intake over the long term may negatively impact a child's nutritional status and growth. This study aims to examine the relationship between picky eating behavior and the adequacy of macronutrient intake including energy, protein, fat, and carbohydrates and nutritional status among preschool children at Lab School 1 Kindergarten, State University of Surabaya. This research utilized a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The study population consisted of 60 preschool children aged 4–6 years (48–73 months), selected using total sampling. After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 37 respondents were included. Data were collected using the Child Eating Behavior Questionnaire (CEBQ) to assess picky eating behavior, interviews with the Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ) to evaluate macronutrient intake, and anthropometric measurements to determine nutritional status. Data analysis was conducted using the Spearman Rank correlation test. The results showed a significant relationship between picky eating behavior and energy intake (p=0.002; r=0.495), fat intake (p=0.002; r=0.502), carbohydrate intake (p=0.006; r=0.443), and nutritional status (p=0.002; r=-0.493) among preschool children at Lab School 1 Unesa. However, no significant relationship was found between picky eating behavior and protein intake (p=0.064; r=0.307).

Contemporary Javanese music, particularly Campursari, blends traditional gamelan instruments with modern genres such as pop, dangdut, and keroncong. This hybrid style has gained popularity among Millennials and Generation Z, who often perceive it as familiar, calming, and emotionally comforting. This study examines whether listening to contemporary Javanese music influences the sleep quality of Generation Z in Yogyakarta. A quantitative research approach was employed using a survey distributed through Google Forms to 50 participants aged 19–26 years. The questionnaire measured listening frequency, emotional responses to the music, and perceived sleep quality using a Likert scale. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS with descriptive statistics, including the Kolmogorov–Smirnov normality test, linear regression, and tests for heteroscedasticity and multicollinearity. The results indicate a positive relationship between listening to contemporary Javanese music and improved sleep quality. The familiar and emotionally soothing characteristics of Campursari appear to help listeners relax and reduce stress before sleep. These findings suggest that culturally rooted music may serve as a simple, non-pharmacological approach to supporting better sleep and emotional well-being among young adults..  

Odot grass (Pennisetum purpureum cv. Mott) is an important ruminant forage because of its high palatability, adaptability to tropical environments, and potential for high biomass production. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of solid organic fertilizer on the growth and production of odot grass as a basis for developing productive and sustainable forage cultivation. The experiment was conducted in Pangi Village, Dulupi District, Boalemo Regency, from February to March 2026 using a completely randomized design with five treatments and three replications. The treatments consisted of P0 without solid organic fertilizer, P1 at 10 t/ha, P2 at 20 t/ha, P3 at 30 t/ha, and P4 at 40 t/ha. Observed variables included plant height, leaf number, tiller number, and fresh weight production. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance followed by Duncan’s multiple range test at the 5% significance level. The results showed that P4 produced the best response for all measured parameters. The highest plant height was 77.83 ± 43.80 cm, with 18.83 ± 3.67 leaves, 2.42 ± 1.38 tillers, and fresh weight production of 52.33 ± 10.12 t/ha. These improvements indicate that 40 t/ha solid organic fertilizer enhanced nutrient availability and supported biomass formation. Solid organic fertilizer is therefore a promising locally based cultivation input for improving ruminant forage productivity.

The proportion of the remaining variance in the goodness of fit of the model is influenced by variables outside the scope of this research. Based on this basis, efforts to increase employee expertise capacity and improve organizational values ​​​​are crucial instruments for optimizing public service standardization.

Consumption of meat sausages has the potential to increase the risk of non-communicable diseases due to their high saturated fat content. The development of plant-based analog sausages can be a healthier alternative. Banggai sweet potato has potential as a local carbohydrate source, while moringa seeds contain relatively high protein. This study aimed to determine the acceptability and proximate composition of analog sausages made from Banggai sweet potato flour and moringa seed flour. This study was an experimental research using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with three formulations (F1, F2, and F3). Organoleptic testing was conducted on 30 semi-trained panelists using a 5-point hedonic scale including color, aroma, taste, and texture. Data were analyzed using Shapiro–Wilk, Kruskal–Wallis, and Mann–Whitney tests. Proximate analysis was performed on the selected formulation. The results showed significant differences in all acceptability parameters (p < 0.05). Formulation F3 was the best formulation based on panelists’ preference level. Proximate analysis of formulation F3 per 100 grams showed moisture content of 7.54%, ash content of 1.61%, protein 7.67%, fat 11.28%, and carbohydrate 21.02%. Formulation F3 had the highest acceptance level and nutritional content with potential as a plant-based protein food alternative. Further studies are needed including mineral analysis, shelf-life testing, microbiological analysis, and industrial-scale development to improve product quality.

The use of local raw materials in Nile tilapia feed formulation needs to be developed to reduce dependence on increasingly expensive conventional feed ingredients. This study aimed to analyze the effect of different formulations of chicken feather meal and moringa leaf meal with turmeric addition as a phytobiotic on the chemical composition of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) feed. The study used a completely randomized design with three treatments and three replications. P1 consisted of 55% chicken feather meal, 25% moringa leaf meal, 5% turmeric, 10% corn flour, and 5% starch; P2 consisted of 40% chicken feather meal, 40% moringa leaf meal, 5% turmeric, 10% corn flour, and 5% starch; and P3 consisted of 25% chicken feather meal, 55% moringa leaf meal, 5% turmeric, 10% corn flour, and 5% starch. The parameters analyzed were crude protein, moisture, ash, crude lipid, crude fiber, and carbohydrate. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance followed by the least significant difference test when significant differences occurred. The results showed that P3 produced the highest protein content (22.60%), ash content (6.65%), crude fiber (6.55%), and carbohydrate (8.45%), whereas P2 produced the highest lipid content (6.54%). Based on chemical analysis, P3 was the most prominent formulation for most proximate parameters. However, this formulation cannot be directly concluded as the best feed for fish growth because digestibility, palatability, feed conversion ratio, growth, survival, and health responses were not evaluated. Further biological testing is therefore required to confirm its feasibility for Nile tilapia culture.

Pneumonia is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among children aged 0–18 years worldwide. Appropriate treatment is crucial for improving treatment outcomes and preventing complications and antibiotic resistance. This literature review aims to analyze treatment options for pneumonia in pediatric patients based on articles published in PubMed from 2024 to 2025. The method used involved searching for articles with the keywords “(Case Reports) AND (pneumonia) AND (in children)” using filters for free full text, case reports, English language, human subjects, and the 0–18-year-old age group. Of the 71 articles identified, 10 met the inclusion criteria. The review results indicate that pneumonia treatment in children is dominated by the use of antibiotics and supportive care. In cases of severe pneumonia and necrotizing pneumonia, intensive antimicrobial therapy, close monitoring, and management of complications are required. Modern diagnostic tests such as bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), rapid syndromic arrays, and metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) help identify pathogens more quickly and accurately, thereby allowing for more targeted therapy. Additionally, corticosteroids and immunoglobulins are used as adjunctive therapies in cases of severe inflammation. Accurate diagnosis and individualized therapy selection play a crucial role in improving clinical outcomes for pediatric pneumonia patients. 

The quick advancement of digital technology has drastically changed the social and religious life of Indonesian teenagers. The purpose of this study is to investigate how pupils at Al Muslim Junior High School's daily worship practices, self-control, and fear of missing out (FoMO) affect the principles of Islamic Religious Education (PAI). The study used a quantitative methodology with a causal and correlational design. All students in grades VII, VIII, and IX made up the study population for the 2025–2026 school year. Using the Slovin formula, a proportionate stratified sample of 171 students with a 5% margin of error was chosen. A five-point Likert scale questionnaire was used to gather data. The Pearson Product-Moment correlation (r > 0.30) was used to evaluate validity, while Cronbach's Alpha (α > 0.70) was used to test reliability. Multiple linear regression using SPSS version 26 was used for quantitative analysis, beginning with traditional assumption tests for heteroscedasticity (Glejser), multicollinearity (VIF), and normality (Kolmogorov-Smirnov). According to the analysis results, self-control had a substantial, favorable impact on the practice of PAI values, but FoMO had no significant influence (β = -0.034, p = 0.530).

Complementary feeding plays a vital role in meeting the nutritional needs of infants and toddlers. However, food safety remains a concern, particularly for homemade commercial complementary foods. This study aimed to assess the microbiological quality and hygiene sanitation practices of homemade commercial complementary foods vendors in the service area of Karangandong Public Health Center, Gresik. A quantitative descriptive approach with a cross-sectional design was employed. Four homemade commercial complementary foods samples were collected from different vendors and tested for Total Plate Count (TPC) and Escherichia coli contamination. Observations and interviews were also conducted to evaluate the vendors' hygiene and sanitation practices. The results showed that three out of four homemade commercial complementary foods samples exceeded the maximum limit for microbial contamination (1 × 10² CFU/g). Two of the four samples tested positive for Escherichia coli contamination. The hygiene and sanitation practices of the vendors showed several non-conformities, categorized as minor, major, and critical. In conclusion, most homemade commercial MP-ASI products in this study did not meet established microbiological safety standards and reflected hygiene and sanitation practices that require improvement.

Blood is a major component of the homeostatic system that plays an essential role in maintaining the physiological balance of the body. Several blood chemistry parameters, including blood glucose, cholesterol, and blood pH levels, can be used to assess an individual's health condition. Blood glucose is derived from carbohydrate metabolism and serves as the body's primary energy source. Cholesterol is a lipid compound involved in cell membrane formation and hormone synthesis and consists of Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) and High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL). Blood pH measurement is used to determine the degree of acidity or alkalinity of the blood, reflecting the body's acid-base balance. This study aims to interpret the results of blood chemical analyses and understand the principles and methods used to determine blood glucose, cholesterol, and pH levels. The research employed a laboratory experimental method by measuring these parameters using blood chemistry testing equipment on blood samples. The results showed that fasting blood glucose was 97 mg/dL, indicating a normal glucose level. In contrast, non-fasting blood glucose was 61 mg/dL, which was below the normal range and indicated hypoglycemia. Blood cholesterol was measured at 139 mg/dL, which remained within the normal range. The blood pH value was 6, indicating a condition of acidosis. These findings highlight the importance of blood chemistry examinations as indicators for evaluating metabolic conditions and overall health status.
