Lifestyle changes, such as smoking habits, low physical activity, and suboptimal sleep patterns, have the potential to affect various health indicators. However, empirical evidence showing a direct link between lifestyle factors and objective health indicators still shows varying results. This study aims to analyze the relationship between lifestyle factors and health indicators in adult respondents, in an effort to provide an empirical picture of behavioral factors related to health conditions. This study used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional observational analytic design. Data were obtained from 94 respondents who had complete lifestyle data and health examination results. Lifestyle factors analyzed included smoking habits, exercise frequency, and sleep duration, while health indicators included body mass index (BMI), systolic and diastolic blood pressure, blood sugar levels, cholesterol, uric acid, and pulse rate. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics, the Shapiro–Wilk normality test, and the Spearman correlation test according to the characteristics of the data distribution. The results showed that smoking habits were significantly associated with diastolic blood pressure (p < 0.05), exercise frequency was significantly associated with BMI and systolic blood pressure (p < 0.05), and sleep duration was significantly associated with uric acid levels (p < 0.05). Meanwhile, the relationship between lifestyle factors and other health indicators did not show statistical significance. These findings indicate that the influence of lifestyle on health is specific to certain indicators and is not evenly distributed across all health parameters. This study concludes that identifying lifestyle factors relevant to certain health indicators is important as a basis for formulating more targeted health promotion strategies.

In conclusion, the overall quality of educational services at SDN Lambangsari 05 is considered good, with strong performance in non-physical aspects, although upgrading physical facilities remains essential to enhance student satisfaction and create a more conducive learning environment.

Bitcoin is one of the most prominent digital assets in the modern financial era due to its high volatility and huge profit potential. However, its extreme price volatility also makes it a high-risk asset, so a reliable forecasting approach is needed to help investors make more rational decisions. This study aims to forecast Bitcoin price using the Moving Average (MA) method, specifically MA3, by utilizing monthly historical data of Bitcoin price in USD currency obtained from investing.com website. The MA3 method was chosen for its ability to smooth out short-term fluctuations and identify the direction of price trends. The forecasting process is performed by calculating the average of the last three months' prices for each point in time and compared to the actual price to evaluate its accuracy. The evaluation is done using various prediction error metrics, namely Error, Absolute Error, Squared Error, and Percentage Error. The results of the analysis show that the MA method provides a fairly representative picture of price trends and can be used as an early indicator in short-term investment strategies. Thus, the Moving Average method proves to be a simple but effective prediction tool, especially for novice investors in the dynamic crypto asset market.

This study reviews the comparison between two popular methods in capital budgeting analysis, namely Internal Rate of Return (IRR) and Payback Period (PP), applied in the investment decision-making process at PT Pertamina (Persero). As a state-owned company in the energy sector that runs various important projects, Pertamina needs to evaluate investment feasibility efficiently. IRR is used to assess the effectiveness of long-term investments by taking into account all cash flows as well as the time value of money, while PP emphasizes more on how quickly the initial capital can be returned. This article uses a literature study method with a descriptive-qualitative approach to explore the advantages and disadvantages of each method. The results of the discussion show that IRR provides a more precise picture of long-term investment returns, while PP is useful for identifying projects that quickly return capital. Nonetheless, the use of each method alone is not comprehensive enough. Therefore, it is recommended that Pertamina integrate IRR and PP with other approaches such as Net Present Value (NPV) and sensitivity analysis to support more comprehensive and strategic investment decisions.

In Indonesia, people with disabilities are often overlooked and underestimated because they do not have perfect physical abilities to do certain jobs or activities. The majority of them come from underprivileged families and are often underdeveloped. The unstructured process of distributing assistance can result in the assistance provided is not in accordance with the needs, so it is not optimal in improving the welfare of persons with disabilities. In addition, without a clear grouping, it is difficult for the government to design a more specific and targeted assistance program. Therefore, to overcome this problem, the agency needs to have an additional system to be able to assist in overcoming the problem of disability assistance recipients, namely by using the clustering method to group beneficiary data based on age, type of disability, and type of assistance. Thus, this clustering is expected to provide information and a clearer picture of the needs of each disability group, so that the assistance program provided can be distributed more optimally according to what people with disabilities need. After calculating using the existing cluster formula4, iteration 2 is the same as in iteration 1 and there is no data that moves groups anymore so the calculation can be stopped. So that a cluster graph can be made grouping data on beneficiaries of assistance for disabilities in Binjai City using the K-Means algorithm clustering method.

Export means transporting or bringing goods and services from one country to another coun-try. In order to evaluate how strong export competitiveness is and identify market opportunities, specific calculation methods and approaches regarding comparative advantage are needed. One of them is using the "revealed comparative advanced" (RCA) method, which provides an accu-rate picture of how competitive a product is in the international market. One measuring tool is the Balassa index, where a value of more than one (>1) indicates a strong level of competitive-ness for export products to the destination country. Conversely, a value less than one (<1) indi-cates low competitiveness and sales difficulties in that market. The calculation results show that Timor Leste has an average Balassa index of 60.685, followed by Brunei Darussalam with a Balassa index value of 12.526 and Malaysia of 4.987 and with a stable value, thus indicating good potential for exporters who want to market coffee products. roast them to the country. However, Thailand has little potential with a Balassa index of 1.944. In contrast, Singapore and the Philippines have an average Balassa index below 1, indicating there is no great potential as a profitable export market.
