This study aims to investigate the effects of tamarind leaf extract (Tamarindus indica L.) on neuropharmacological activity in mice using calculated percentages of responses based on the parameters PSM, SSSP, DSSP, SL, RO, SM, PSL, and ANA. This research was conducted as a laboratory experiment using a completely randomized design (CRD) with three treatment concentrations: 1%, 2%, and 4%. Observations were performed to assess the percentage of activity produced by each sample concentration, followed by descriptive–quantitative analysis to determine the dose–response pattern. The results showed that tamarind leaf extract produced varying responses across concentrations. The SSSP, ANA, and RO effects demonstrated increased activity at the 2% concentration, whereas other parameters (PSM, PSL, SM, SL, and DSSP) showed decreased activity. Interestingly, the SSSP parameter exhibited a positive dose–response pattern with the highest activity of 55.84% at 2%. Overall, the effectiveness of tamarind leaf extract depends on the concentration level. The 2% concentration appears to be the optimal dose for several neuropharmacological effects, while the 4% concentration was most effective only for SSSP. These findings highlight the importance of multi-concentration testing to determine effective dosing of natural products for biological applications and the need for further investigation.

The food and beverage industry are generally known for its stability. Nevertheless, this sub-sector underwent fluctuations as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, one of which was in its firm value. The study investigates how firm value is affected by key organizational characteristics, including financial performance, the scale of the firm, and the rate of sales growth. A firm's value is measured by its PBV (Price to Book Value). The study's measure of financial performance is a combination of Return on Equity (ROE) and the CR, DER, and TATO ratios. This study uses a quantitative approach. The study's population is composed of F&B firms publicly traded on the Indonesia Stock Exchange throughout 2019–2023. A purposive sampling technique was used to select the sample based on predefined requirements, leading to a total of 125 samples from 25 companies. Data were processed using WarpPLS version 8.0 to evaluate the research model through model fit, structural testing, and hypothesis testing. The results show that the model meets the required fit indices and has strong explanatory power. The findings reveal that profitability (ROE) and leverage (DER) have a positive and significant effect on firm value, while liquidity (CR) and sales growth exert a negative and significant effect. On the other hand, activity ratio (TATO) and firm size do not significantly influence firm value.

Emesis gravidarum is a common condition experienced by pregnant women during the first trimester and can negatively affect maternal comfort, nutritional intake, and overall pregnancy well-being. Various biological and psychosocial factors are believed to influence its occurrence, including pregnancy interval and the level of family support. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between pregnancy interval and family support with the incidence emesis gravidarum among first-trimester pregnant women. A quantitative analytic study with cross-sectional design was conducted involving 30 pregnant women in their first trimester. Data were collected using structured questionnaires to assess pregnancy interval, family support (emotional, informational, instrumental, and appraisal support), and the incidence of emesis gravidarum. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS, including univariate analysis to describe respondent characteristics and bivariate analysis using the Chi-square test to determine the relationships between variables, with a significance level set at p < 0.05. The results showed that short pregnancy intervals were significantly associated with a higher incidence of emesis gravidarum. In addition, pregnant women who reported low levels of family support were more likely experience moderate severe emesis gravidarum compared to those receiving adequate support. Statistical testing confirmed that both pregnancy interval and family support had significant relationship with the occurrence of emesis gravidarum. In conclusion, pregnancy interval and family support are important factors influencing the incidence of emesis gravidarum in the first trimester. Strengthening family involvement and promoting optimal pregnancy spacing are recommended as part of comprehensive antenatal care to reduce pregnancy discomforts and improve maternal health outcomes.

Modern healthcare services are undergoing transformation toward a more humanistic and patient-centered approach, emphasizing hospitality based services in hospitals. However, many healthcare institutions, particularly in outpatient settings, have not fully adopted this concept. Patients often experience psychological distress, and when coupled with an unsupportive physical environment, their comfort and overall experience may be diminished. These conditions can negatively affect perceptions of service quality, patient satisfaction, and loyalty toward hospital services. This study aimed to analyze the influence of patients’ psychological conditions and the physical environment on hospitality-based services, with patient experience as an intervening variable, at the internal medicine outpatient clinic of BM Hospital. A quantitative research design using a cross-sectional approach was employed. The study involved 200 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using structured questionnaires with Likert-scale items and analyzed with Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results showed that patients’ psychological conditions, the physical environment, and patient experience simultaneously and significantly influenced hospitality-based services. Hypothesis testing confirmed that both psychological conditions and the physical environment had a direct and significant impact on hospitality-based services. Furthermore, patient experience played a mediating role, strengthening the relationship between these factors and perceived service quality. The findings highlight the need for hospitals to integrate psychological support and a conducive physical environment into outpatient care delivery. Enhancing these dimensions can improve patient experience, foster greater satisfaction and comfort, and build stronger loyalty toward hospital services

Bell's Palsy is a sudden onset of peripheral facial nerve paralysis that is generally unilateral. This condition is characterized by facial muscle weakness, asymmetry, difficulty closing the eyes, and facial expression disorders. Associated risk factors include exposure to cold temperatures and the habit of chewing ice cubes, which can trigger vasospasm of the blood vessels and inflammation of the facial nerve.  Physiotherapy management is important to accelerate recovery, prevent complications such as synkinesis and contractures, and improve the patient's quality of life. This study aims to describe the implementation of physiotherapy in cases of Bell's Palsy at PKU Muhammadiyah Selogiri Hospital and evaluate the effectiveness of physiotherapy intervention on the recovery of facial function in patients. A case report was conducted on a 41-year-old female patient diagnosed with right-sided Bell's Palsy. The examination included anamnesis, static and dynamic inspection, palpation, basic movement examination, sensory examination, and assessment using the House-Brackmann Facial Grading System (HBGS). Physiotherapy interventions were given three times a week, including Infra Red (IR), Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS), light massage, facial exercises (raising eyebrows, closing eyes, blowing, smiling), and education on preventing exposure to cold. Evaluation was performed using Manual Muscle Testing (MMT) and Ugo Fisch. The implementation of physiotherapy with a combination of IR, TENS, massage, and facial exercises is effective in gradually improving the facial function of patients with Bell's Palsy. Physiotherapy also plays a role in educating patients about the prevention of recurrence related to environmental risk factors and lifestyle.

The long-term care required by schizophrenia patients places a heavy burden on caregivers who are responsible for meeting the patients' needs. Performing these caregiving tasks often causes physical and emotional stress on caregivers, especially due to the long-term nature of the care. In situations like this, coping strategies play a crucial role in supporting the well-being of caregivers so that they are able to face the challenges that arise during the process of caring for schizophrenic patients. This study focuses on examining the correlation between coping strategies and the quality of life of caregivers who provide care for schizophrenic patients at the Aceh Mental Hospital Polyclinic. The research design applied was analytical with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 115 caregivers were sampled through accidental sampling from a total population of 4,035 families. Research data were collected using two measuring instruments, namely the Brief COPE questionnaire and The Schizophrenia Caregiver Quality of Life Questionnaire (SCGQoL). The research process took place at the Aceh Mental Hospital Polyclinic from March 6 to 24, 2025. Data analysis used univariate and bivariate methods. Based on the research results, it was found that 108 caregivers (93.9%) were in the low coping strategy category, while 80 caregivers (69.6%) had a moderate quality of life. Statistical testing with Chi-Square produced a p-value of 0.001, which indicates a significant relationship between coping strategies and the quality of life of caregivers. Therefore, it is hoped that health care institutions can improve mental health nursing interventions for patients' families, particularly through educational programs on managing schizophrenia patients at home and assistance in identifying adaptive coping resources for patients' families.

Fungal infections are a common health problem in tropical regions, including Indonesia, since humid conditions support microbial growth. Candida tropicalis is a pathogenic species frequently identified as the cause of both superficial and systemic candidiasis. The rising resistance to synthetic antifungal agents such as fluconazole and ketoconazole highlights the need for safer and more effective alternative therapies. Propolis, a resinous substance produced by Trigona sp. bees from various plant sources, contains flavonoids, phenolics, and terpenoids with important biological activities, including antimicrobial and antifungal effects. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of ethanol extract of propolis from Balikpapan against the growth of Candida tropicalis using the disk diffusion method. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolics, tannins, and terpenoids in the extract. Antifungal activity testing showed that concentrations of 80%, 90%, and 100% significantly inhibited fungal growth, with the largest inhibition zone of 27.93 mm observed at 100% concentration. Statistical analysis using ANOVA confirmed significant differences among treatments. Thus, ethanol extract of Trigona sp. propolis from Balikpapan demonstrates strong potential as a natural antifungal agent. These findings support the use of propolis as a natural-based therapeutic alternative for fungal infections and contribute to the development of herbal pharmaceutical products.
