This study investigates the impact of social stigma on colorectal cancer treatment management through a meta-analysis of 47 studies involving 12,358 patients. Results demonstrate significant negative correlations between social stigma and both colorectal cancer treatment adherence (r = -0.42, p < 0.001) and patient quality of life (r = -0.38, p < 0.001). More specifically, regression analyses reveal that social stigma predicts 18% of variance in diagnostic delay (β = 0.43, p < 0.001) and 22% of variance in treatment-seeking delay (β = 0.47, p < 0.001). These findings, when compared to Gonzalez and Smith's (2019), reported a weaker correlation (r = -0.29) between social stigma and treatment adherence, identifying a stronger effect between these variables. Furthermore, unlike Lee et al.'s (2020) study focusing on lung cancer, this research specifically demonstrates that colorectal cancer patients experience 23% higher levels of social stigma (d = 0.58, p < 0.01). In the context of intervention, results confirm that community-based interventions can reduce perceived social stigma by 31% (95% CI: 24%-38%), exceeding the effectiveness reported in Courtens (1996) previous study. Finally, mediation analyses confirm that social support mediates 26.2% of social stigma's effect on treatment adherence and 34.2% on quality of life, while coping strategies mediate 21.4% and 26.3%, respectively. These findings underscore the urgency of integrating social stigma reduction strategies into colorectal cancer treatment management protocols to improve treatment outcomes and patient well-being.

This meta-analysis investigated the role of positive emotions in Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) treatment, encompassing 47 studies with 3,284 patients. Results demonstrated that positive emotion-based interventions significantly enhanced quality of life by 27.3% (d = 0.84, 95% CI [0.71, 0.97], p < 0.001) compared to control groups. Regression analyses revealed that optimism strongly correlated with retinal degeneration deceleration (β = 0.62, p < 0.001), while increased gratitude was associated with an 18.7% improvement in visual function (r = 0.41, p < 0.01). Furthermore, a 5-year longitudinal study demonstrated a 31.5% reduction in anxiety (t(412) = 8.76, p < 0.001) and 43.2% increase in treatment adherence (OR = 2.87, 95% CI [2.14, 3.85]) in the intervention group. Mediation analyses identified neuroplasticity (β = 0.31, 95% CI [0.22, 0.40], p < 0.001) and inflammatory modulation (β = 0.28, 95% CI [0.19, 0.37], p < 0.001) as primary mechanisms mediating the relationship between positive emotions and RP treatment outcomes. These findings extend Johnson et al.'s (2019) work on optimism-RP progression correlation and Hinkle et al.'s (2021) mindfulness effects on RP patients' quality of life by providing the first identification of specific neuroplasticity pathways influenced by positive emotions in RP management. Additionally, the optimal dose-response model, identified at 16 weeks with 2-3 sessions per week (β = 0.18 per session, p < 0.001), establishes a novel framework for psychoneuroimmunological intervention protocols in RP treatment.

This study analyzes the digital marketing strategies between two leading digital banking applications in Indonesia, namely MyBCA from Bank Central Asia (BCA) and Wondr by BNI from Bank Negara Indonesia (BNI). The research focuses on comparing features, digital marketing strategies, as well as customer acquisition and retention of the two applications. Data was obtained through secondary sources and analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. The results show that although both applications have excellent features, MyBCA emphasizes simplicity and ease of use for general users, while Wondr by BNI focuses more on the younger generation with innovative and deeper personalization features. The digital marketing strategies employed by the two banks also differ, with MyBCA relying more on social media and email marketing, while Wondr by BNI predominantly uses influencer marketing.

This research aims to understand the dynamics of rationality and emotions in the context of decision making in business. A literature study method is used by collecting literature from various sources related to rationality, emotions, and their interactions in business decision making. The results showed that business decision making needs a balanced approach between rationality and emotions. Rationality bases decisions on logical processes based on facts, through evaluating alternatives and choosing optimal options. Meanwhile, emotions play an important role through heuristics, motivation, perception, and evaluation. The implications for business practice are the importance of balancing rationality with emotions to make better and more sustainable decisions.

This article aims to describe the implementation of the Madrasah Education Section's Educator and Education Personnel Management Information System (SIMPATIKA) at the Palangka Raya City Office of the Ministry of Religious Affairs. The main focus in this research includes: implementation, effectiveness of use, and inhibiting factors of SIMPATIKA implementation. This research was conducted qualitatively with data collection through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. The results showed that: 1) The implementation of SIMPATIKA has been carried out by the Madrasah Education Section at the Palangka Raya City Ministry of Religious Affairs Office, which is managed by SIMPATIKA Special operators.2) The effectiveness of using SIMPATIKA as a madrasah data management system has not been fully realized.3) The inhibiting factors of SIMPATIKA implementation are mainly caused by the ignorance of some teachers in accessing the management information system for educators and education personnel (PTK). This has led to the delegation of SIMPATIKA account management to madrasah operators, whereas the account should be managed individually by each educator. The proposed solution is to hold technical guidance on the SIMPATIKA management information system, and provide an understanding of the rights and responsibilities in using individual SIMPATIKA accounts..

Education aims to help students become more independent and critical in the process of discovering their own identity. Participatory education is a relevant approach that allows students to actively participate in the thinking process. The philosophy of educational progressivism pioneered by John Dewey reflects much of this approach. According to progressivism, education should be student-centered by emphasizing hands-on experience to teach and build critical thinking skills. Relevant works on progressivism and Dewey's concept of education are investigated in this qualitative research. The results show that the idea of progressivism is strongly related to Indonesia's national education goal, which is to create innovative, independent, and flexible students. A student-centered curriculum and a supportive education system are needed to implement this theory.
