Reducing the area of agricultural areas, especially paddy fields into palm oil plantations in the use of space in Mukomuko Regency, has raised concerns about the impact of these changes, namely the decline in rice productivity, which if allowed to drag on could lead to food insecurity due to the decreasing number of functional paddy fields. into oil palm plantations, especially in areas that are designated as agropolitan in the Mukomuko Regency spatial planning. Time and Place of Research: Research was conducted from October to November 2023 in Muko-Muko Regency, Bengkulu Province. To find out the strategy for managing land conversion, SWOT analysis is used. The results of the research show that the position of controlling the conversion of wetland agricultural land is in quadrant I, namely the position with an aggressive strategy (S-O). In this case the recommended strategy is to utilize strengths to take advantage of existing opportunities. Alternative strategies that can be implemented by policy makers, in this case the Mukomuko district government, to prevent the conversion of rice land to oil palm are clear regulations and establishing clear rice field zones in spatial plans, improving government policies in the farming sector, improving institutions in the farming sector, empowerment and socialization regarding land conversion regulations and improving agricultural facilities and infrastructure

This community service activity was conducted in RT 004, Tebet Timur Dalam, with the aim of introducing and promoting Microsoft Project as a tool to enhance project management skills. Microsoft Project is software that facilitates efficient project planning, management, and evaluation. The implementation methods included material delivery, discussions, and practical simulations using simple case studies relevant to the participants' needs. The results of this activity demonstrated that participants gained a basic understanding of project management concepts and fundamental skills in using Microsoft Project. This training is expected to enhance the community's ability to design and manage projects, whether for personal or communal purposes, thereby supporting more structured and effective activity management.

This systematic literature review explores the role of psychoneuroimmunology (PNI)-based mind-body interventions in improving wound healing within nursing practice. Wound healing is a complex, multifactorial process influenced not only by cellular and molecular factors but also by psychological and immune responses. Despite the growing body of evidence supporting the efficacy of mind-body practices such as guided imagery, hypnotherapy, and meditation in managing stress and modulating immune responses, there is limited integration of these interventions into clinical nursing practices. This review aims to bridge this gap by synthesizing studies published between 2020 and 2024 that examine the impact of these interventions on wound healing outcomes. The review follows the PRISMA protocol, analyzing data from 50 primary studies focusing on RCTs, systematic reviews, and quasi-experimental designs. The results show significant improvements in wound closure rates, pain reduction, and immune modulation (e.g., reduction in cortisol and pro-inflammatory cytokines) in patients who received mind-body interventions. The findings support the hypothesis that mind-body interventions, by addressing both psychological stress and immune function, enhance wound healing. The proposed framework for integrating PNI-based interventions into nursing practice could improve patient outcomes in chronic wound management. Future research should focus on long-term studies with larger sample sizes and standardized intervention protocols to further validate these findings.

Hospital Information Systems (HIS), or Sistem Informasi Rumah Sakit (SIRS), play a critical role in enhancing administrative efficiency, decision support, and healthcare service quality. However, their implementation and effectiveness vary significantly across healthcare settings, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This study aims to systematically evaluate the existing literature on HIS effectiveness, implementation barriers, and administrative impact. Using a PRISMA-based Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, we examined 14 high-quality studies from multiple scholarly databases including PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Garuda. The review applied a hybrid thematic synthesis grounded in HOT-FIT and DeLone & McLean models, combined with a normalized quality scoring system. The findings reveal that HIS implementations positively influence administrative workflow, billing accuracy, and patient throughput, though outcomes are context-dependent. Key challenges include lack of interoperability, resistance to change, and insufficient training. Notably, regulatory mandates and national digital health policies were found to significantly enhance HIS adoption and sustainability. This review contributes a multidimensional synthesis of HIS performance, highlighting the importance of human, organizational, and policy alignment. It offers an evidence-backed framework for HIS evaluation that bridges theory and practice. We conclude that integrated, context-sensitive HIS models are essential for advancing hospital management and public health systems, and recommend further empirical studies on long-term impact and cross-sector integration.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of English textbooks for special purposes, particularly in the context of learning English for education. The content analysis method was used to evaluate the textbook with a focus on its purpose, content, methodology, and practical aspects. The results of the analysis showed strengths in purpose, approach, design and organization, as well as language aspects such as vocabulary and grammar. However, there were weaknesses in content coverage and integration of important components such as grammar and pronunciation. The implication is that this study emphasizes the importance of textbook evaluation to ensure the quality and effectiveness of learning, by adapting the materials to learners' needs and integrating methodologies that are in line with the latest educational developments.

This paper presents a comparative analysis of various battery management systems (BMS) in electric vehicles, with a focus on incorporating machine learning techniques to improve battery safety and extend battery life. The study evaluates conventional BMS against machine learning-enhanced models in predicting thermal runaway, state of charge (SOC), and state of health (SOH) under diverse operating conditions. Results indicate that machine learning algorithms outperform conventional methods, providing more accurate SOC and SOH estimations, thus enhancing vehicle safety and longevity.
