Cattle farming plays a strategic role in rural economic development by generating employment, supplementary household income, and contributing to food and nutritional security. However, in Indonesia, most smallholder cattle enterprises remain traditional and small-scale, leading farmers to treat livestock farming primarily as a secondary livelihood. While previous studies have largely focused on technical adoption and production performance, limited attention has been given to farmers’ psychological interest as a foundation for sustaining livestock enterprises. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the level of community interest in cattle farming and examine the influence of farmers’ characteristics (age, education level, herd size, number of family dependents, farming experience, and primary income) on such interest. A quantitative survey was conducted involving 34 cattle farmers in Taji Village, Jabung District, Malang Regency, selected using total sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The findings reveal that community interest in cattle farming is generally high, as reflected in emotional (3.93), cognitive (3.81), and conative (3.74) dimensions measured on a four-point Likert scale. Regression results indicate that age has a significant positive effect (p = 0.022), whereas farming experience has a significant negative effect (p = 0.025) on interest levels. Other variables show no statistically significant influence. These findings highlight that psychological engagement in cattle farming is shaped more by demographic and experiential factors than by formal education or income level. The study contributes to the literature by positioning interest as a psychological determinant of livestock sustainability. Policy implications emphasize the urgency of risk-mitigation extension programs to address farmer burnout, incentivized intergenerational knowledge transfer, and cooperative-based institutional support to ensure smallholder livestock sustainability.

The Free Health Check-up (CKG) is a government program designed to strengthen promotive and preventive health efforts through the early detection of risk factors, pre-disease conditions, and diseases across the community according to the life-cycle approach. As a relatively new initiative, the implementation of the CKG program in primary healthcare settings still requires further evaluation to assess implementation readiness, digital support systems, and community participation. This literature review aimed to examine the implementation of the Free Health Check-up Program in primary healthcare services. Relevant literature was retrieved from the Google Scholar database using the keyword "implementation of the free health check-up program" and was limited to open-access, full-text articles published between 2025 and 2026. The search identified eight eligible articles, which were extracted and analyzed in this review. The synthesis revealed three major themes in the implementation of the CKG program: (1) primary healthcare service readiness, (2) digitalization and reporting systems, and (3) community participation and communication strategies. Primary healthcare readiness includes the availability of human resources, infrastructure, medical equipment, consumable medical supplies, funding, service workflows, and cross-sectoral coordination. Digitalization through the SATUSEHATplatform and integrated reporting systems has the potential to improve service efficiency; however, challenges remain regarding digital literacy, internet connectivity, and the technical capacity of healthcare personnel. Community participation is influenced by knowledge, attitudes, the roles of community health volunteers, teachers, healthcare workers, and communication strategies tailored to the characteristics of the target population. The successful implementation of the CKG program requires strengthening primary healthcare systems, optimizing digital health platforms, and adopting community-based communication strategies to ensure the program is more effective, inclusive, and sustainable.

Background: Low immunization coverage and exclusive breastfeeding coverage are problems in various regions. This program is caused by a lack of maternal knowledge and family support. This problem increases the risk of infection, growth disorders, and impacts the health status of infants. Therefore, the IMASI MOVEMENT (Immunization and Exclusive Breastfeeding Movement) is needed to increase community knowledge and participation regarding infant and toddler health. Method: The methods used include interactive counseling, demonstrations of breastfeeding techniques according to the pink book (KIA), distribution of leaflets, and evaluation through pre-tests and post-tests. Evaluation was carried out on aspects of structure, process, results, and impact of the activity. Results: The results of the activity showed an increase in participants' knowledge scores by ?50–60% after education. Participant attendance reached ?85% of the target, and there was an increase in participation in integrated health post activities compared to the previous month. Discussion: The increase in knowledge scores in the post-test results compared to the pre-test indicates that the educational intervention is effective in increasing mothers' understanding of the benefits of exclusive breastfeeding and the importance of immunization. These findings indicate that community-based health education is an effective strategy to improve maternal health literacy and has the potential to increase the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding and complete basic immunization. Conclusion: This program has proven effective in increasing awareness and health behavior of mothers and toddlers as an effort to prevent stunting and infectious diseases.

Method: The methods used included community assessment, establishing a community nursing diagnosis, planning education-based interventions, implementing outreach and simulation activities, and evaluating outcomes. Results: The results of the activity indicated that most people have limited knowledge about TB prevention, and that risky behaviors and non-adherence to therapy persist. Interventions, including group outreach, interactive discussions, and education on the importance of medication adherence, demonstrated increased knowledge and healthier behavior changes. Conclution: The conclusion of this activity emphasized the importance of the active role of community nurses in reducing TB transmission rates through educational approaches, active surveillance, and cross-sector collaboration. Recommendations focused on strengthening ongoing education and the involvement of families and community health workers in early detection and monitoring of TB patient therapy.

Proper drug disposal is often perceived as a trivial matter by the public when dealing with medications that are no longer needed. However, improper disposal can effect on the economy, public health, and the environment. Therefore, it is essential to educate the public to improve their knowledge regarding appropriate drug disposal methods. Previous studies have shown that educational media can effectively increase public awareness and understanding. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of educational leaflets in enhancing public knowledge about proper drug disposal. This experimental study involved an intervention using educational leaflets. A total of 100 respondents participated in the study. The intervention was conducted over three consecutive days. Pretest and posttest data were collected to assess changes in knowledge. Univariate analysis was used to describe respondent characteristics, while bivariate analysis (Wilcoxon test) was employed to compare pretest and posttest results. Pretest data indicated that the majority of respondents had only sufficient knowledge about drug disposal. Following the intervention, the number of respondents with sufficient knowledge decreased, while those categorized as having good knowledge increased. Statistically, a p-value of 0.000 demonstrated that the use of leaflets significantly improved knowledge level. Based on the results of this study, educational interventions, such as the distribution of leaflets, can effectively enhance public knowledge about proper drug disposal.

This study aims to examine the strategic role of teachers in instilling anti-corruption educational values in elementary school (SD/MI) students in the digital era. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with five SD/MI teachers in Karawang Regency conducted in May 2026. Findings reveal that all informants possess adequate conceptual understanding of anti-corruption education as a character-building process rather than mere knowledge transmission. Teachers perform three principal functions: as behavioral role models, value-based learning facilitators, and collaborative partners with families. Implemented strategies include exemplary conduct, habituation, cross-subject value integration, and utilization of digital media such as educational videos, animations, and interactive quizzes. However, implementation faces significant obstacles, including social media normalizing dishonest behavior, instant-gratification tendencies among students, and weak synergy between schools and family environments. This research affirms that successful internalization of anti-corruption values requires consistent teacher exemplarity, a conducive school ecosystem, robust digital literacy, and sustainable tri-center educational collaboration. Practical implications include the necessity of strengthening teachers' pedagogical competencies in designing character-based learning that is adaptive to the dynamics of the digital era.

Background: The elderly are a vulnerable group requiring special attention, particularly regarding degenerative diseases like hypertension. In Melinggih Village, there are around 250 elderly residents, but participation in village activities is very low (only 57 are active). The main issues include limited information on degenerative diseases, a lack of skills in preparing traditional medicine, and weak cadre capacity in designing productive activities.

Furthermore, the product's low production cost suggests it could serve as a source of additional income for villagers. This initiative is expected to support local food security and improve community welfare through the development of food businesses based on local resources.

Flooding remains a recurrent hazard in the Special Capital Region of Jakarta (DKI Jakarta), causing substantial disruptions across multiple dimensions community life, including social well-being and economic activities. The availability of flood-related information through the Jakarta One Data Portal (Satu Data Jakarta) provides significant opportunities for broader data utilization; however, transforming such information into meaningful assessments regional vulnerability requires a systematic analytical approach to generate more comprehensive understanding of the conditions of individual urban villages (kelurahan). This study focuses on the classification areas based on the characteristics and impacts of flood events occurring throughout DKI Jakarta. The analysis utilizes flood event records from 2023 to 2025 and incorporates several indicators, including the number of flood occurrences, the number of affected neighborhood associations (RW), the number affected households, the number of affected residents, the number of evacuees, the number of evacuation sites, and floodwater depth. Data processing was conducted using the Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) framework, encompassing data selection, cleaning and preprocessing, transformation, pattern exploration, result evaluation, and knowledge extraction. The findings demonstrate that three-cluster solution effectively captures variations in flood vulnerability levels, corresponding to low-, moderate-, and high-risk categories. A total of 96 urban villages were classified as low-risk, 27 as moderate-risk, and 46 as high-risk areas. The resulting clustering patterns provide a clearer spatial representation of flood-risk distribution across urban villages, thereby offering valuable insights for the development more targeted mitigation strategies, the prioritization of flood management interventions, and the enhancement of evidence-based decision-making processes in DKI Jakarta.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by persistently high blood sugar levels, which can lead to complications such as diabetic foot issues. A crucial aspect for healthcare professionals providing care to DM patients is assessing the patient's level of adherence and understanding regarding self-care and disease management. Data from the 2023 SKI (Indonesian Health Survey) indicates there were 118,184 cases of Diabetes Mellitus in Central Java. Foot care education delivered via remote services assists patients in performing proper foot care to prevent complications associated with the condition. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of an animated video based on the Theory of Planned Behavior in improving the knowledge and adherence of patients with diabetic ulcers. A quasi-experimental design was employed, utilizing a one-group pre-test and post-test approach with a control group. Incidental sampling was used to select 60 respondents. The Mann-Whitney test yielded a p-value of < 0.05 (0.017), demonstrating that the animated video based on the Theory of Planned Behavior was effective in enhancing both adherence and knowledge among patients with diabetic ulcers. The findings suggest that this animated video, leveraging audiovisual media, can be implemented in educational settings to help prevent foot complications in patients with diabetes.

Hypertension is one of the leading non-communicable diseases contributing significantly to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite the availability of extensive electronic medical record data in healthcare institutions, these data are often utilized only for administrative reporting rather than predictive analysis. Consequently, opportunities to identify age groups with a higher probability of developing hypertension remain underutilized. This study aims to implement the Naïve Bayes classification algorithm to analyze age distribution and classify the risk of hypertension among patients using healthcare data. The research adopted the Cross-Industry Standard Process for Data Mining (CRISP-DM) methodology, including business understanding, data understanding, data preparation, modeling, evaluation, and deployment. Patient medical record data consisting of demographic and clinical attributes, including age, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, body weight, gender, and hypertension status, were processed using the Naïve Bayes algorithm. Model performance was evaluated using a confusion matrix by measuring accuracy, precision, recall, specificity, and balanced accuracy. The implementation demonstrates that the Naïve Bayes algorithm is capable of classifying hypertension risk efficiently while providing probabilistic information regarding age groups with a higher tendency to experience hypertension. The resulting classification model offers an effective decision-support tool for healthcare providers in conducting targeted screening, preventive interventions, and evidence-based health planning. The findings also indicate that data mining techniques can transform routinely collected medical records into valuable clinical knowledge for early hypertension prevention and healthcare decision-making.

Sharia financial literacy is an important aspect in supporting inclusive and sustainable economic development. However, the level of sharia financial literacy among Indonesian society is still relatively low. This condition creates opportunities for Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) to play a strategic role in improving young generations’ understanding of financial management based on sharia principles. Therefore, this community service activity aimed to enhance the sharia financial literacy and inclusion of students through the SAKINAH (Santri Cakap Literasi Keuangan Syariah) Program at Nurul Abshor Islamic Boarding School, Katingan Regency. The program was implemented using a participatory educational approach through socialization, interactive discussions, simple simulations, and participant evaluations. The activity was carried out through collaboration among the Financial Services Authority (OJK) of Central Kalimantan Province, the Islamic Economic Society of Katingan Regency, PT Bank Syariah Indonesia Palangka Raya, Nurul Abshor Islamic Boarding School, the Regional Financial Access Acceleration Team of Katingan Regency, and students of Palangka Raya University. The results showed an improvement in students’ understanding of the importance of saving, the ability to distinguish between needs and wants, sharia financial management, and knowledge of legal and trustworthy sharia financial products and services. The SAKINAH Program was also considered effective in encouraging students to become agents of sharia financial literacy within the pesantren environment and the wider community.

Vomitus is the forceful expulsion of gastric contents through the mouth, commonly occurring in children as a clinical manifestation of gastrointestinal diseases. Based on medical records of RSUD dr. Soeselo, Tegal Regency, vomitus cases increased to 355 cases in 2025. Therefore, comprehensive nursing care is needed to address problems arising from vomiting in children. This study used a descriptive method in the form of a case study through a nursing process approach, aimed at describing nursing care for a pediatric patient with vomitus. Three nursing diagnoses were identified in An. A with vomitus: Nausea related to gastric irritation/stimulation of the vomiting center, Risk of Fluid Imbalance related to repeated vomiting, and Knowledge Deficit related to lack of information exposure. Nursing interventions provided included Vomiting Management, Fluid Management, and Health Education. After three days of nursing implementation, all three nursing diagnoses were resolved, marked by the disappearance of nausea, improved appetite, normal hydration status (moist mucosa, good skin turgor, pulse 88x/minute), and the patient's mother and patient being able to understand and re-explain health education material about vomitus.

This study aims to analyze the strategies applied by teachers in shaping students' green behavior in grade IV of SDN Sarakan III, Sepatan District, Tangerang Regency. The approach used is descriptive qualitative. The research subjects include grade IV teachers, students, and the school principal. Data collection was carried out through observation, interviews, and document studies. Data analysis used the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The research results show that teachers implement five main strategies, namely: (1) designing learning according to the objectives and characteristics of students; (2) encouraging active student participation; (3) presenting material contextually; (4) using Project Based Learning (PjBL) methods and the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) approach; and (5) habituating environmentally caring behavior in everyday school life. The implementation of students' green behavior has been observed in the aspects of knowledge, attitude, and action, although consistency still needs to be improved, especially due to limited school facilities and differences in students' levels of awareness.
