Sementara itu, Media Sosial juga berpengaruh signifikan terhadap Kepuasan Konsumen (T = 6,244; p < 0,05), namun tidak signifikan terhadap Keputusan Pembelian secara langsung (T = 1,814; p = 0,070). Variabel Personal Branding tidak memiliki pengaruh signifikan baik terhadap Kepuasan Konsumen maupun Keputusan Pembelian secara langsung. Uji pengaruh tidak langsung menunjukkan bahwa Kepuasan Konsumen memediasi secara signifikan hubungan antara Kepercayaan Konsumen dan Keputusan Pembelian, serta antara Media Sosial dan Keputusan Pembelian. Namun, tidak ditemukan efek mediasi signifikan antara Personal Branding dan Keputusan Pembelian. Hasil ini menekankan pentingnya peran Kepercayaan Konsumen dan Media Sosial dalam membentuk Kepuasan Konsumen yang pada akhirnya meningkatkan Keputusan Pembelian, sementara Personal Branding tidak memiliki peran yang kuat dalam model ini. Penelitian ini memberikan implikasi strategis dalam pengelolaan pemasaran dan layanan konsumen di industri klinik kecantikan.

Clinical practice is a crucial stage in nursing education that requires students to apply theoretical knowledge in real healthcare settings. The transition to a clinical environment often triggers anxiety, as students face competency demands, professional responsibilities, and direct interactions with patients. This study aims to determine the anxiety levels of fifth-semester nursing students prior to clinical practice at Universitas Muhammadiyah Semarang. A descriptive quantitative design was employed with a sample of 35 students selected using a simple random sampling technique. Data were collected using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS) and analyzed descriptively with Microsoft Excel to obtain frequency and percentage distributions. The results showed that most students experienced severe anxiety (31%), followed by moderate (29%), mild (23%), no anxiety (14%), and panic-level anxiety (3%). These findings indicate that the majority of nursing students experience anxiety before clinical practice, predominantly at severe and moderate levels. Therefore, psychological support and mental preparation programs are essential to help students transition optimally into the clinical environment.

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) represent a prevalent health issue among clinical medical students, with global studies reporting incidence rates of 73% in India and 81.9% in Saudi Arabia. Pain is most frequently reported in the neck, lower back, and shoulder areas. However, similar data from Indonesia, particularly Papua, remains limited. This study aims to identify the prevalence and risk factors of MSDs among clinical medical students at the Faculty of Medicine, Cenderawasih University. The research employed a cross-sectional design with a sample of 78 clinical students selected through purposive sampling. Data collection utilized the Standardized Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire (NMQ) to measure prevalence and the Nordic Body Map to localize pain. Data analysis used Chi-Square test to evaluate the relationship between risk factors (such as Body Mass Index/BMI and physical activity) and musculoskeletal complaints. Results showed the majority of respondents were female (74.4%) and aged ≥25 years (51.3%). Most respondents experienced pain at the "moderate pain" level (57.7%), with the most frequently reported pain areas being the back, waist, calves, knees, shoulders, and wrists. There was a statistically significant relationship between BMI and pain complaints (p=0.035), but no significant relationship was found between physical exercise and musculoskeletal complaints (p=0.129). This study concludes that BMI is a risk factor for MSDs in the studied population. Evidence-based recommendations are needed to reduce MSD risk and improve students' quality of life during clinical education.

Acne vulgaris is one of the most prevalent dermatological disorders in Indonesia, often affecting adolescents and young adults. This condition not only causes visible skin lesions but also has a profound impact on psychological well-being, leading to decreased confidence and reduced quality of life. Effective management of acne vulgaris requires consistent use of prescribed medications, with doxycycline being one of the commonly recommended systemic antibiotics. This study aimed to evaluate the level of patient adherence to doxycycline therapy for acne vulgaris at Roels Clinic, Ponorogo, during the period of March to April 2025, and to identify factors that may influence this adherence. A descriptive research design was utilized, employing a structured questionnaire distributed to patients who met specific inclusion criteria. The adherence level was assessed using a 5-point Likert scale, and the average percentage was computed and classified into compliance categories. The findings revealed that among 50 respondents, 70.6% demonstrated a “fairly high” level of adherence to doxycycline treatment. These results suggest that most patients follow the prescribed regimen appropriately. High adherence is expected to improve therapeutic outcomes, accelerate recovery, and minimize the potential for antibiotic resistance, which remains a growing concern in dermatological and public health settings.

Hyperemesis gravidarum is a condition of excessive nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, which can lead to dehydration, weight loss, potassium deficiency (hypokalemia), and serious metabolic disorders. If left untreated, this condition can trigger complications such as ketosis, liver dysfunction, and even death. The exact cause is unknown, but several predisposing factors, such as multiple pregnancies, hydatidiform moles, psychological conditions (such as stress, fear of pregnancy), and a decreased immune system in pregnant women, are believed to play a role (Maryunani, 2018). Persistent nausea and vomiting cause the body to use carbohydrate and fat reserves for energy, which produces toxic metabolites. As a result, body tissues receive fewer nutrients and oxygen. Furthermore, potassium loss through vomiting and urine can contribute to hypokalemia and worsen vomiting. According to Maryunani (2019), this condition occurs more frequently in 60–80% of primiparous pregnant women and 40–60% of multiparous pregnant women during the first trimester. This study used an analytical method with a cross-sectional approach to determine the relationship between knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women towards the occurrence of hyperemesis gravidarum. The results showed a significant relationship between knowledge (p = 0.015) and attitudes of pregnant women (p = 0.006) towards the occurrence of hyperemesis gravidarum. It is hoped that health workers, especially in Community Health Centers, will be more active in providing education to pregnant women regarding the prevention of hyperemesis gravidarum. Pregnant women are also expected to regularly check their pregnancies and seek appropriate information to maintain their health during pregnancy. This study used an analytical method with a cross-sectional approach to determine the relationship between knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women towards the occurrence of hyperemesis gravidarum. The results showed a significant relationship between knowledge (p = 0.015) and attitudes of pregnant women (p = 0.006) towards the occurrence of hyperemesis gravidarum.

The Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) remains a key indicator in assessing maternal health in Indonesia. Prolonged labor, particularly in the first stage, contributes to the high MMR. Prolonged labor can increase the risk of complications for both mother and baby. Birthballs are a non-pharmacological method used to help accelerate labor by increasing comfort, reducing pain, and accelerating cervical dilation. This method is increasingly popular because it does not involve medication and is safer for pregnant women. This study aims to determine the effect of birthball use on the progress of first-stage labor in women giving birth at the Cantika Clinic, Deli Tua District, Deli Serdang Regency in 2022. The study design used a Quasi Experiment with a Two Group Design. The study sample consisted of 20 respondents divided into two groups: an intervention group using a birthball and a control group not using a birthball, each consisting of 10 respondents. Data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test. The results of the study showed that the group using the birthball had an average duration of the first stage of labor of 7 hours, while the group not using the birthball had an average duration of 8 hours and 40 minutes. The results of the statistical analysis showed a p value = 0.029 (<0.05), which means there is a significant effect of the use of the birthball on the progress of the first stage of labor. The conclusion of this study is that the use of the birthball can accelerate the process of the first stage of labor, so it is recommended to be implemented as a non-pharmacological intervention that can support a smoother and more comfortable delivery for pregnant women.  

The phenomenon of online gambling and human trafficking crimes that afflict children is a serious problem in Papua, especially among teenagers who are vulnerable to falling into it due to a lack of understanding of the law and weak social control. The lack of access to correct information and low legal literacy make them more easily influenced by irresponsible parties. Therefore, this community service aims to provide practical legal education through the establishment of an Anti-Online Gambling and Trafficking in Persons Law Clinic to students of Al Ihsan Yapis Kotaraja Junior High School. The service method is carried out in a participatory manner by actively involving students in various activities. Activities include interactive legal counseling delivered in simple language, discussions about real cases relevant to the daily lives of teenagers, and simulations of handling legal problems. With this approach, participants not only gain theoretical knowledge, but also practical experience in recognizing and dealing with legal problems that they have the potential to face in the surrounding environment. The results of the service showed an increase in participants' understanding of the legal consequences of online gambling and child trafficking. In addition, students demonstrate a higher critical awareness of the risks that may occur, as well as skills in recognizing signs of suspicious behavior that lead to criminal acts.

Cervical cancer is one of the leading causes of death among women in Indonesia, yet it is preventable through early detection such as VIA (Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid). Low health literacy and limited access to education remain key challenges in rural areas, including Tanjung Anom Village. This community service aimed to increase knowledge and participation of women of reproductive age in VIA screening through a clinic-based educational approach at Romana Clinic. A participatory method was applied by involving local communities, health cadres, and medical personnel. The results showed a significant increase in participants’ knowledge scores from an average of 54.6 to 78.9 after the training. A total of 39 women underwent VIA screening, and a women’s education group was established to ensure program sustainability. This activity also led to the emergence of local leadership and collective awareness as early signs of social transformation. The clinic-based education model has proven to be effective and suitable for replication in other rural settings.

Nausea and vomiting are common complaints experienced by pregnant women in the first trimester. If left unmanaged, these symptoms may develop into hyperemesis gravidarum, which poses risks to both mother and fetus. One non-pharmacological alternative is the use of ginger (Zingiber officinale) as a complementary therapy. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women regarding the benefits of ginger decoction in reducing nausea and vomiting. The method included health education, hands-on practice in preparing ginger decoction, and pre-test and post-test evaluations. The activity was conducted at Pratama Madina Clinic, involving 45 first-trimester pregnant women. Results indicated a significant increase in knowledge, with pre-test scores averaging 4.53 and post-test scores rising to 8.33. The activity also led to positive behavioral changes and increased awareness of the safe use of herbal therapies during pregnancy. Ginger education proved to be an effective initiative for fostering social transformation within the pregnant women's community.

Anemia in pregnancy remains a public health problem in Indonesia, with a prevalence of 48.9% (Riskesdas, 2018). Low adherence to iron and folic acid tablet (TTD) consumption is one of the main causes of high anemia rates among pregnant women. This community service activity aimed to improve TTD consumption compliance among pregnant women through interactive educational media at Sarfina Sembiring Clinic in 2025. The implementation method applied a participatory learning approach, consisting of preparation, education delivery, evaluation, and follow-up. A total of 30 pregnant women participated in the activity. Pre-test and post-test evaluations showed an increase in knowledge scores from 62.5 to 85.3 (+36.4%), while compliance with TTD consumption increased from 46.7% to 83.3% (+36.6%). Additionally, 90% of participants stated that interactive media was easier to understand compared to conventional lecture methods. These findings indicate that interactive educational media effectively improves knowledge and compliance with TTD consumption among pregnant women, making it a viable alternative for health education to support anemia prevention programs in Indonesia.
