Aditya Nasrullah, Efni Anita, Eri Nofriza — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

This study aims to analyze the influence of digital banking, Islamic business ethics, and service quality on customer satisfaction at Bank Syariah Indonesia (BSI) in Jambi City. A quantitative research approach with a survey method was employed. The population consisted of all BSI customers in Jambi City, while 100 respondents were selected using the Slovin formula with probability sampling techniques. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS version 26. The findings indicate that, partially, digital banking has a positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction. In contrast, Islamic business ethics and service quality do not have a significant effect on customer satisfaction. However, simultaneously, digital banking, Islamic business ethics, and service quality have a significant influence on customer satisfaction. The coefficient of determination (Adjusted R Square) of 0.700 indicates that these three variables explain 70% of the variation in customer satisfaction, while the remaining 30% is influenced by other factors outside the scope of this study. The results demonstrate that digital banking is the most dominant factor affecting customer satisfaction at BSI Jambi City. Therefore, Bank Syariah Indonesia is expected to continuously improve its digital banking services by enhancing accessibility, security, speed, and reliability while maintaining the implementation of Islamic business ethics and service quality to strengthen customer satisfaction and loyalty.

Toothache is one of the most common health problems in the community and is often managed through self-medication using analgesic drugs. Limited knowledge regarding the appropriate use of analgesics may increase the risk of irrational drug use. This study aimed to determine the relationship between community knowledge and the use of analgesics for toothache in the working area of Guntur I Community Health Center, Demak. This study employed a quantitative analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 99 respondents were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through validated and reliable questionnaires and analyzed using the Spearman Rho test with a significance level of 5%. The results showed that most respondents had a moderate level of knowledge (41 respondents; 41.4%) and a moderate level of analgesic use (48 respondents; 48.5%). The Spearman Rho test yielded a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05) and a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.862, indicating a very strong positive relationship between community knowledge and the use of analgesics for toothache. In conclusion, there is a significant relationship between community knowledge and the use of analgesics for toothache in the working area of Guntur I Community Health Center, Demak. Improving public education on the rational use of medicines is essential to promote safe and appropriate self-medication practices.

INTERNALISASI NILAI-NILAI KONSERVASI MELALUI PENDIDIKAN FORMAL DAN NONFORMAL SEBAGAI STRATEGI PENGUATAN LITERASI EKOLOGIS GENERASI MUDA

Junaidi Junaidi, Abdul Alimun Utama — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

This study aims to analyze how the internalization of conservation values through formal and non-formal education contributes to strengthening the ecological literacy of the younger generation. The study used a qualitative approach with a literature review method. Data were obtained from scientific articles indexed in Google Scholar and Scopus, covering publications over the past ten years. Then, they were analyzed using thematic analysis techniques through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the internalization of conservation values in formal education is carried out through the integration of conservation materials into the curriculum, project-based learning, co-curricular activities, and the habituation of a school culture oriented towards environmental conservation. Meanwhile, non-formal education strengthens this process through the involvement of the younger generation in community activities, environmental education, conservation actions, environmental awareness campaigns, and direct experiences in nature. The synergy between formal and non-formal education has been proven to be able to improve ecological literacy, which includes the dimensions of knowledge, awareness, attitudes, skills, and responsible behavior towards the environment.

LITERASI PENDIDIKAN TINGGI SISWA SMA NEGERI 10 MERANGIN BERDASARKAN STANDAR AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION (ALA) FOR HIGHER EDUCATION

Muhammad Abror, Muhammad Rum, Syamsuddin Syamsuddin — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

Higher education literacy is an essential competency that enables students to make informed decisions about pursuing higher education based on accurate and reliable information. This study aimed to analyze the higher education literacy of students at SMA Negeri 10 Merangin based on the American Library Association (ALA) Standards for Higher Education. This research employed a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings revealed that students' higher education literacy remains at a developing level. Although students showed strong motivation to continue their studies, their ability to access information from official sources, evaluate the credibility of information, use information as a basis for decision-making, and communicate information academically was still limited. Therefore, schools should implement structured higher education literacy programs to better prepare students for higher education.

EFEKTIVITAS KOMUNIKASI DIGITAL: PERAN SURVEYOR LAPANGAN SEBAGAI AGEN PUBLIC RELATION DAN MEMBINA HUBUNGAN DENGAN KLIEN

Tidar Astaning S — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

Field surveyors in the coal commodity inspection and certification industry are commonly perceived merely as technicians who take samples and measure tonnage. This article argues that such perception reduces the empirical reality of the surveyor's work, which in practice performs a public relations function at the most critical touchpoints between the surveying company, mining clients, coal buyers, shipping vessels, and port authorities. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with literature study and document analysis on coal inspection practices at the draft survey stage, barge sampling, sample preparation in the laboratory, and the issuance of the Certificate of Analysis (CoA). Analysis results are determined not only by sampling but also by sample preparation, since errors in crushing, dividing, or drying at the preparation stage will carry through to the certified figures. The findings show that the effectiveness of digital communication thru WhatsApp, email, cloud-based reporting applications, and real-time field photo sharing is decisive in managing three main risks: the risk of analysis result disputes, the risk of loading delays, and the risk of losing client trust. Field surveyors are thus constructed as boundary spanners and informal public relations agents who build relationship management based on openness, responsiveness, and data integrity. This article recommends institutionalizing digital communication competencies within the competency standards for coal surveyors.

Chandra Kurniawan, Dede Supiyan — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

The problem of paper waste sorting remains a challenge because many people are still unable to distinguish between organic and inorganic paper waste. Errors in the sorting process reduce recycling effectiveness and increase environmental pollution due to the mixing of materials that cannot be processed together. This study aims to develop a web-based classification system for organic and inorganic paper waste using the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) method with the InceptionV3 architecture. The dataset used was obtained through independent image acquisition using smartphone cameras and public datasets, with a total of approximately 900 images consisting of 650 images of organic paper waste and 250 images of inorganic paper waste. The research process included data collection, preprocessing, data labeling, model training, and model integration into a web application using TensorFlow, FastAPI, and Laravel. The developed system provides real-time classification through a camera, classification history storage, and visualization of system usage statistics. The results indicate that the system can assist users in identifying paper waste more quickly and efficiently and can serve as an educational medium to increase public awareness of the importance of proper paper waste sorting before the recycling process is carried out.

DIAGNOSIS DINI DAN PENATALAKSANAAN OPERATIF TORSI OVARIUM DEKSTRA AKIBAT KISTA OVARIUM PADA WANITA USIA REPRODUKTIF: LAPORAN KASUS

Prima Della Fegita, Chandra Adilla — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

Ovarian torsion is a gynecological emergency caused by partial or complete rotation of the ovary and its vascular pedicle, leading to impaired blood flow and potential ovarian necrosis if not treated promptly. Ovarian cysts larger than 5 cm are recognized as the main predisposing factor. A 33-year-old multiparous woman presented with sudden-onset right lower abdominal pain lasting four hours. Physical examination revealed tenderness over the right adnexal region. Ultrasonography demonstrated a well-defined unilocular hypoechoic cystic mass measuring approximately 2.5 × 4.6 cm arising from the right adnexa, accompanied by absent ovarian blood flow on Doppler evaluation. An emergency laparotomy was performed, revealing a torsed, dark-brown right ovarian cyst. Right salpingo-oophorectomy was undertaken because the adnexa appeared non-viable. Histopathological examination confirmed an ovarian cyst. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged in stable condition. Early recognition of ovarian torsion through clinical evaluation supported by ultrasonography is essential to prevent ischemic complications. Prompt surgical intervention remains the definitive treatment, while the choice of surgical procedure should be individualized according to ovarian viability and intraoperative findings.

The agricultural sector plays a crucial role in supporting food security and economic growth. However, rainfed agricultural areas face significant challenges due to limited water availability, especially during the dry season. This study aims to analyze the utilization of renewable energy in improving the intensity of dryland management in Orong Sabokal, Boak Village. The research employed a quantitative descriptive approach with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results indicate that the use of renewable energy, particularly solar-powered water pumps, significantly improves irrigation efficiency, increases cropping intensity, and reduces operational costs. The implementation of this technology enables farmers to overcome water scarcity constraints and maintain agricultural productivity. Therefore, renewable energy utilization can be considered an effective solution for sustainable dryland agriculture management.

IMPLIKASI HUKUM PELAKSANAAN TEKNIK PEMBELIAN TERSELUBUNG (UNDERCOVER BUY) TERHADAP NILAI PEMBUKTIAN

Fitriana Wahyu Setyaningsih, Erny Herlin Setyorini — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

Undercover buy is a special investigative technique that has proven effective in uncovering organized and covert crimes, particularly narcotics offenses. However, its implementation raises legal issues concerning the legality of obtaining evidence and its evidentiary value in criminal proceedings. This study aims to analyze the legal implications of implementing undercover buy operations on the evidentiary value within the Indonesian criminal justice system following the enactment of Law Number 20 of 2025 on the Indonesian Code of Criminal Procedure (Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Acara Pidana). This research employs a normative juridical method using statutory, conceptual, and analytical approaches through library research based on primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. The findings reveal that the new Code of Criminal Procedure establishes the legality of the acquisition of evidence as a constitutive requirement for the admissibility of evidence in criminal proceedings. Consequently, evidence obtained through undercover buy operations must be acquired lawfully and without violating the law. Where an undercover buy operation involves unlawful conduct or constitutes entrapment, the resulting evidence lacks evidentiary value and is therefore inadmissible before the court.

EKSPLORASI EFEKTIVITAS MEDIA PEMBELAJARAN VIRTUAL DALAM PEMBELAJARAN BERBASIS PRAKTIKUM DI AKADEMI KOMUNITAS OLAT MARAS

Sri Wahyu Hidayati, Luthfiyah Kurniawati — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

This study aims to explore the effectiveness of virtual learning media in practicum-based learning at Olat Maras Community Academy. The advancement of digital technologies, particularly Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and computer-based simulations, has provided more interactive, immersive, and flexible learning alternatives, especially in vocational education contexts with limited laboratory facilities. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach using a systematic literature review (SLR) method on scientific articles indexed in Google Scholar, Scopus, and ScienceDirect published between 2020 and 2026. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis by categorizing findings into effectiveness, advantages, limitations, and supporting factors of virtual media implementation. The results indicate that virtual learning media are effective in improving conceptual understanding, procedural skills, as well as student engagement and motivation. However, limitations remain in fully replacing hands-on practical experience, along with technical constraints and user readiness issues. Therefore, integrating virtual media with direct practice through a blended learning approach is considered the most optimal strategy to enhance the quality of practicum-based learning. This study contributes to the development of innovative and adaptive technology-based learning models in vocational education.

ANALISIS FRAMING PEMBERITAAN TEMPO TERHADAP ISU BALIHO PRABOWO DI ISRAEL DAN NARASI DUKUNGAN ABRAHAM SHIELD

Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

This study aims to analyze how Tempo frames the issue of Prabowo Subianto's billboard in Israel and the narrative of support for the Abraham Shield. This research employs a qualitative approach using Robert N. Entman’s framing analysis model, which consists of four elements: problem definition, causal interpretation, moral evaluation, and treatment recommendation. The data were collected from five news articles published by Tempo related to the issue. The findings show that Tempo frames the issue as controversial and potentially misleading, emphasizing verification and clarification of information. The cause of the issue is attributed to geopolitical propaganda and the use of artificial intelligence in visual manipulation. Tempo also presents a critical moral stance toward the dissemination of misleading information while reinforcing Indonesia’s consistent diplomatic position on Palestine. This study highlights the role of media in constructing political reality through framing and its influence on public perception.

Kresno Yuntoro, Kundori Kundori, Ariana Oktavia, Asep Hendiawan, Sugeng Hariyadi — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

This study aims to analyze the effect of preventive maintenance management on the reliability and safety of marine engines. This study uses a quantitative approach with an associative-causal research design, which aims to measure and analyze cause-and-effect relationships. Data analysis in this study was carried out in stages using SPSS and AMOS software. The results show that preventive maintenance management has a positive and significant effect on ship engine reliability (β = 0.724; t = 11.947; p < 0.001) and operational safety (β = 0.689; t = 10.541; p < 0.001). Strengthening the spare parts management system and developing the technical competence of engine crews need to be given special priority in the agenda for improving the quality of PMS in national shipping companies. This study provides empirical evidence that consistent implementation of preventive maintenance management, particularly through strengthening the PMS system, is not merely a matter of fulfilling regulatory aspects, but an operational strategy that is scientifically proven to be able to increase fleet reliability while reducing shipping safety risks.

KONSEP MA’RIFATULLAH SEBAGAI PUNCAK ILMU PENGETAHUAN DALAM PERSPEKTIF ISLAM DAN IMPLIKASINYA TERHADAP PENDIDIKAN AGAMA ISLAM

Sahwan Sahwan, kholil Hasib — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

This research is motivated by the importance of understanding the concept of ma'rifatullah (knowledge of God) as the pinnacle of knowledge from an Islamic perspective. Amidst the development of modern science, Islamic Religious Education still tends to emphasize the cognitive aspects and formalities of learning, thus under-emphasizing the spiritual dimension and human understanding of God. In fact, the primary goal of knowledge in Islam is to lead humans to knowledge and closeness to God. This research aims to analyze the concept of ma'rifatullah and its implications for Islamic Religious Education. The research gap lies in the limited number of studies linking the concept of ma'rifatullah with the comprehensive implementation of Islamic education, particularly in the development of students' spirituality and morals. The research method used was library research with a descriptive-analytical approach. Data were obtained from the Quran, hadith, books, scientific journals, and relevant literature. Data analysis was conducted through systematic data reduction, interpretation, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that ma'rifatullah is the core and highest goal of knowledge in Islam. This concept has implications for Islamic Religious Education, which focuses not only on the transfer of knowledge but also on the formation of morals, strengthening spirituality, and instilling the values of monotheism (tawhid) to produce individuals who are knowledgeable, faithful, and virtuous.

PEMETAAN PERSPEKTIF SOSIAL-SPASIAL DALAM PENDIDIKAN: TINJAUAN LITERATUR SISTEMATIS DAN ANALISIS TEMATIK

Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

The transformation of twenty-first-century education requires approaches that are more responsive to social challenges and focused on community empowerment. Socio-spatial perspectives have emerged from the understanding that space is not merely a static backdrop but an active social determinant that shapes well-being and educational outcomes. This study aims to provide a comprehensive mapping of the global literature on the application of socio-spatial dimensions in educational practices. A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) guided by the PRISMA framework was conducted to analyze 28 selected articles published between 2015 and 2026. Thematic analysis identified five major research themes: (1) inequalities in educational access and spatial justice; (2) spatial pedagogy through the analysis of teacher mobility and interaction; (3) learning environments as psychogeographical ecosystems; (4) socially oriented education grounded in identity, decolonization, and community spaces; and (5) the expansion of educational interactions into digital, virtual, and cyber spaces. The findings indicate a paradigm shift toward a dynamic relational perspective in which spatial agency actively shapes students' cognitive experiences, emotions, and identities. This study concludes that overlooking spatial interdependencies in educational policies may reinforce social segregation. Therefore, more context-sensitive and spatially nuanced approaches are required to promote equity and social justice in education.

PENGARUH INFLASI DAN HARGA MINYAK TERHADAP PEMBIAYAAN BANK UMUM SYARIAH DI INDONESIA PERIODE 2021-2025

Indah Permata Sari, Bambang Kurniawan, Nurrahma Sari Putri — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

This study aims to analyze the effect of inflation and world oil price fluctuations on Islamic Commercial Bank (BUS) financing in Indonesia during the period 2021–2025. The study is motivated by the inconsistency between economic theory, which suggests that inflation and rising world oil prices may suppress financing activities, and empirical evidence showing that BUS financing continued to increase during the study period. The research uses monthly secondary data obtained from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), the Financial Services Authority (OJK), and the World Bank. A quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis using EViews 12 was employed.The results indicate that inflation has a positive and significant effect on Islamic Commercial Bank financing, with a probability value of 0.0000 (< 0.05). Meanwhile, world oil prices do not have a significant effect on Islamic Commercial Bank financing. Simultaneously, inflation and world oil prices significantly affect Islamic Commercial Bank financing, as indicated by a Prob(F-statistic) value of 0.0000 (< 0.05). The Adjusted R-Squared value of 0.418570 indicates that inflation and world oil prices explain 41.86% of the variation in Islamic Commercial Bank financing, while the remaining 58.14% is explained by other variables outside the research model.

EFFECT OF ALOIN ON HEPATIC HISTOPATHOLOGY AND TNF-a EXPRESSION IN AN AGED MOUSE MODEL OF OBESITY AND TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS

Muhammad Sutan Delupi, Nadia Purnama Dewi, Ade Teti Vani, Dessy Abdullah — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

Background: Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus are closely associated with chronic hyperglycaemia, insulin resistance, oxidative stress, and persistent inflammation, which may contribute to progressive hepatic injury. Aloin, an anthraquinone glycoside derived from Aloe species, has been reported to possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of aloin administered in combination with metformin on hepatic histopathology and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) expression in aged male mice with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: This experimental study used a post-test-only control group design involving 32 male mice (Mus musculus) divided into two groups: a positive control group receiving metformin and a treatment group receiving metformin plus aloin. After 28 days of intervention, hepar tissues were examined using haematoxylin–eosin staining and immunohistochemical assessment of TNF-α expression. Results: The treatment group showed relatively better-preserved hepatocyte morphology and more organised hepatic architecture than the positive control group, although several areas of cellular injury remained detectable. TNF-α immunoreactivity was less extensive and more scattered in the treatment group. The mean hepatic TNF-α value was lower in the treatment group than in the positive control group (81.244 ± 13.238 vs 99.352 ± 6.993). The difference between groups was statistically significant (p = 0.011). Conclusion: Aloin supplementation alongside metformin was associated with improved hepatic histological features and lower TNF-α expression in aged obese mice with type 2 diabetes mellitus. These findings support the potential role of aloin as an adjunctive agent in reducing diabetes-related hepatic inflammation and injury.

ANTASAN RAWAT STROKE: MODEL PEMBERDAYAAN CAREGIVER BERBASIS COMMUNITY HEALTH NURSING UNTUK MEMPERKUAT PERAWATAN PASCASTROKE DI RUMAH

Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

Stroke is a leading cause of disability requiring long-term home care provided by family caregivers. Limited caregiver knowledge and skills may increase the risk of complications among stroke survivors. This community service program aimed to improve caregivers' capacity through the Antasan Rawat Stroke program based on Community Health Nursing. The program was conducted on July 17–18, 2026, in Antasan Senor Ilir Village. Although the initial target was 10 caregivers, a total of 30 participants attended. The intervention included health education, demonstrations, simulations, hands-on practice, and interactive discussions. Evaluation was conducted using pre-tests, post-tests, and skills observations. The results showed that the mean knowledge score increased from 60.8 to 88.9, and more than 85% of participants were able to perform essential post-stroke care skills independently. The program effectively improved caregivers' knowledge and skills, supporting home-based stroke rehabilitation and complication prevention.

ASSOCIATION BETWEEN ALLERGIC RHINITIS AND GRADE POINT AVERAGE AMONG MEDICAL STUDENTS AT BAITURRAHMAH UNIVERSITY: THE MEDIATING ROLE OF QUALITY OF LIFE

Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

Introduction: Allergic rhinitis (AR) is one of the most prevalent chronic inflammatory diseases of the upper respiratory tract and substantially affects patients' quality of life. Persistent symptoms, including nasal obstruction, rhinorrhea, sneezing, and nasal itching, may impair sleep quality, reduce concentration, and negatively influence cognitive performance. Among medical students, these conditions may interfere with academic activities and ultimately affect academic achievement, as reflected by the Grade Point Average (GPA). Nevertheless, evidence regarding the relationship between allergic rhinitis and academic performance among Indonesian medical students remains limited. Methods: An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among medical students of the Faculty of Medicine, Baiturrahmah University, class of 2023. Participants were selected using a simple random sampling technique based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Allergic rhinitis was assessed using the Score for Allergic Rhinitis (SFAR) questionnaire, while quality of life was evaluated using the Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ). GPA data were obtained from the participants' academic records. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test with statistical significance established at p < 0.05. Results: A statistically significant association was observed between allergic rhinitis status and quality of life. Students with allergic rhinitis experienced poorer quality of life than those without allergic rhinitis. Quality of life was also significantly associated with GPA, indicating that students with impaired quality of life tended to have lower academic achievement. Furthermore, allergic rhinitis demonstrated an indirect association with GPA through its detrimental impact on quality of life. Conclusion: Allergic rhinitis is significantly associated with reduced quality of life among medical students, and impaired quality of life is related to lower academic achievement.

THE EFFECT OF ALOIN ADMINISTRATION ON DERMAL THICKNESS IN MALE MICE (MUS MUSCULUS) WITH DYSLIPIDEMIA-INDUCED OBESITY

Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

Introduction: Dyslipidemia and obesity are major metabolic disorders associated with persistent oxidative stress and chronic low-grade inflammation. These pathological conditions impair dermal homeostasis by promoting collagen degradation, suppressing fibroblast activity, and disrupting extracellular matrix remodeling, ultimately resulting in dermal thinning and delayed tissue repair. Aloin, the principal anthraquinone glycoside isolated from Aloe vera, possesses well-documented antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that may protect dermal tissue against oxidative injury. This study aimed to investigate the effect of aloin administration on dermal thickness in male Mus musculus with dyslipidemia-induced obesity. Methode: A true experimental study employing a posttest-only control group design was conducted using thirty-two male mice with experimentally induced dyslipidemia and obesity. Animals were randomly allocated into a control group (n = 16) and an aloin-treated group (n = 16). The treatment group received oral aloin at a dose of 750 μg/kg body weight once daily via gastric gavage for 28 consecutive days. Skin specimens were processed for histopathological examination using hematoxylin-eosin staining. Statistical comparisons between groups were performed using the Independent Samples t-test, with statistical significance established at p < 0.05. Result: The mean dermal thickness was 0.485 ± 0.090 mm in the control group and 0.465 ± 0.116 mm in the aloin-treated group. Statistical analysis demonstrated no significant difference in dermal thickness between the two experimental groups (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Oral administration of aloin at 750 μg/kg body weight for 28 days did not significantly increase dermal thickness in male mice with dyslipidemia-induced obesity

ANALISIS STRATEGI PEMASARAN SYARIAH PADA USAHA JAMILA CATERING DI DESA MUARA JAMBI

Muhammad Hafiz, Agustina Mutia, Nurfitri Martaliah — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

This study examines how Jamila Catering, a home-based culinary micro-enterprise in Muara Jambi Village, applies sharia marketing in daily practice, where that practice falls short, and what a workable strategy would look like for a small owner who has never formalised her marketing. The problem is concrete: promotion still travels by word of mouth, digital channels are barely used, the halal-thayyib process is never written down, and revenue has swung sharply between 2022 and 2025. Using a qualitative descriptive design, data were gathered through participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation involving five informants: the owner, a production worker, a repeat customer, a raw-material supplier, and a representative of the Muaro Jambi Temple tourism group. Analysis followed the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana model of data condensation, display, and verification, with source and technique triangulation. The findings show that Jamila Catering already honours much of what sharia marketing asks for, honest pricing agreed in advance, halal and fresh ingredients, trustworthy delivery, and orders fulfilled in full, but does so intuitively rather than as a managed system. What is missing is the outward-facing layer: a real digital presence, a clear market segment, a structured menu-and-price catalogue, and written proof of the halal-thayyib process that could turn private trust into public reputation. The study recommends building a WhatsApp Business catalogue, formulating themed halal-thayyib packages, keeping a simple internal control sheet, and forging a fair-share partnership with the temple tourism sector.

ANALISIS TINGKAT KEHADIRAN DAN KETIDAKHADIRAN KARYAWAN BERDASARKAN DIVISI PADA PT XYZ

Samsuriah Samsuriah, Yusran Yusuf, Afdan Dwi Risaldi — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

Employee attendance data are often stored as administrative recaps without further analysis to support managerial evaluation. This study analyzes employee attendance and absence rates by division at PT XYZ using exploratory data analysis and cross-tabulation. The data comprise 1,232 daily records from 44 employees in six divisions during 16 February–15 March 2026. Data cleaning standardized attendance codes and excluded days off, one pre-employment record, and one missing entry from the operational-rate denominator. The analysis used frequency distributions, division-by-status cross-tabulation, daily trend visualization, and attendance-rate calculations. The results show 808 attendance records and 27 authorized absence records from 835 active work opportunities, producing an overall attendance rate of 96.77%. Advertising recorded the highest rate at 98.87%, whereas IT & Product Development recorded the lowest at 92.98%. The article contributes a transparent operational denominator and a division-level descriptive procedure for early-stage workforce analytics, without establishing employee discipline or causal relationships.

EFFECT OF ALOIN ADDED TO METFORMIN ON RENAL FOAM CELLS IN AN AGED, OBESE MOUSE MODEL OF TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS

Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is associated with chronic hyperglycemia, obesity, dyslipidemia, and oxidative stress, which contribute to renal lipid accumulation, inflammation, and foam-cell formation. Aloin, a bioactive compound from Aloe vera, has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and may enhance the renoprotective effects of metformin. Objective: To evaluate the effect of adding aloin to metformin on renal foam-cell occurrence and renal histopathological changes in an aged, obese mouse model of T2DM. Methods: A laboratory experimental study with a post-test-only control-group design was conducted using 32 aged, obese male mice with T2DM. Mice were randomly assigned to receive metformin (250 mg/kg body weight/day) or metformin plus aloin (750 μg/kg body weight/day) for 28 days. Kidney tissues were examined using hematoxylin and eosin staining, and differences in renal foam-cell occurrence were analyzed using the chi-square test. Results: Renal foam cells were observed in 68.8% of mice receiving metformin and 18.8% of those receiving metformin plus aloin, representing a significant reduction (p = 0.004). The combination therapy also showed better-preserved glomerular and tubular architecture and fewer inflammatory cell infiltrates. Conclusion: The addition of aloin to metformin was associated with a significantly lower occurrence of renal foam cells and better-preserved renal histological architecture. These findings suggest that aloin may serve as a potential adjunct to metformin for attenuating diabetes-associated renal histopathological changes.

BEYOND COST AND PRODUCTIVITY: INTEGRATING ESG INTO MINING CONTRACTOR ASSESSMENT FOR SUSTAINABLE MINING OPERATIONS

Rikko Denia — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

Mining contractor assessment has traditionally focused on operational performance indicators such as cost competitiveness, productivity, fleet capability, safety performance, and financial strength. However, the mining industry is currently experiencing a significant sustainability transition driven by Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) expectations, decarbonization commitments, regulatory pressures, and increasing stakeholder scrutiny. These developments have expanded the criteria required to evaluate contractor performance and long-term competitiveness. This study aims to develop a conceptual framework for integrating ESG considerations into mining contractor assessment. A conceptual literature review approach was employed by examining recent studies on contractor evaluation, sustainable mining, ESG implementation, and sustainability management. The analysis indicates that traditional contractor assessment criteria remain important but are no longer sufficient to address emerging sustainability challenges. The findings suggest that future contractor evaluation should incorporate additional dimensions including ESG maturity, governance capability, decarbonization readiness, digital capability, and innovation capability. Based on these findings, this study proposes an ESG-integrated mining contractor assessment framework that combines traditional operational criteria with sustainability-oriented capabilities. The framework contributes to the literature by extending conventional contractor evaluation approaches and introducing the concept of future-ready mining contractors. Practically, the framework can assist mining companies in improving contractor selection, evaluation, and development processes while supporting sustainable mining operations.

FROM DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION TO SUSTAINABLE PERFORMANCE: THE ROLE OF GOVERNANCE, RISK MANAGEMENT, AND COMPLIANCE IN FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS

Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

Widespread adoption of digital technology within financial institutions provides them with new opportunities that may help in achieving sustainability. Unfortunately, these opportunities also come with increasing challenges related to operational disruptions, new emerging risks, and complexities of regulations. As digital technologies become more embedded in business processes, understanding the role of governance, risk management, and compliance (GRC) becomes more crucial. This study examines how these mechanisms support financial institutions in balancing innovation and sustainability during digital transformation by employing a thematic literature review guided by the PRISMA 2020 framework. The review process began with 338 records from Scopus database and after a series of screening and eligibility stages, 16 articles were extracted for final analysis. The findings show that digital transformation is generally associated with improved organizational performance, innovation capability, and resilience. However, the literature also highlights emerging risks arising from greater technological dependence and increasing cybersecurity concerns. Across the reviewed studies, governance consistently appears as an important factor in shaping how organizations manage these opportunities and risks. The analysis further suggests that governance, risk management, and compliance work most effectively when viewed as complementary capabilities rather than separate functions. Based on these findings, this study proposes a digital GRC perspective that illustrates how integrated GRC practices can support resilience and sustainable performance in financial institutions undergoing digital transformation.

Hypertension is one of the leading risk factors for cardiovascular disease, with a continuously increasing prevalence. Macronutrient intake has been suggested to be associated with hypertension; however, existing evidence remains inconsistent. This study aimed to compare macronutrient intake between hypertensive and non-hypertensive patients at Air Dingin Primary Health Center, Padang. This observational analytic study employed a case-control design involving 100 participants, including 50 hypertensive and 50 non-hypertensive patients selected through consecutive sampling. Macronutrient intake was assessed using a Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ), and differences between groups were analyzed using the Independent Samples t-test. The hypertensive group had significantly lower protein intake (p=0.001) and significantly higher fat intake (p=0.046) than the non-hypertensive group, whereas carbohydrate intake did not differ significantly (p=0.111). In conclusion, protein and fat intake differed significantly between hypertensive and non-hypertensive patients, while carbohydrate intake did not. These findings suggest that macronutrient intake should be considered in the nutritional management of patients with hypertension.

Adolescents are a vulnerable group to the double burden of malnutrition because they may simultaneously experience undernutrition and overnutrition. Dietary patterns and physical activity are two behavioral determinants that are closely related to adolescent nutritional status and deserve further study in the school setting. Purpose: To analyze the effect of dietary patterns and physical activity on the risk of double burden of malnutrition among adolescents in a senior high school in Makassar. This study used an analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of students in grades X and XI, with samples selected using proportional random sampling. Dietary pattern data were collected using a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire, physical activity was assessed using a standardized adolescent physical activity questionnaire, and nutritional risk was identified through anthropometric measurements using BMI-for-age and height-for-age indicators. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test with a 95% confidence level. A total of 89 respondents participated in the study, consisting of 40 males and 49 females. Unhealthy dietary patterns and low physical activity were more common among adolescents with nutritional risk, and both variables were significantly associated with the risk of double burden of malnutrition. Dietary pattern and physical activity are important determinants of double burden of malnutrition risk among adolescents in SMA Makassar. School-based nutrition education and physical activity promotion are needed to reduce this risk.

The rapid advancement of information technology has driven the digitalization of healthcare services to improve service quality and patient satisfaction. Indonesia's National Health Insurance Agency (BPJS Kesehatan) has implemented a fingerprint-based verification system to authenticate patient identities, accelerate administrative processes, enhance data accuracy, and prevent misuse of healthcare services. This study aimed to analyze patients' perceptions and satisfaction with the use of fingerprint verification, as well as to examine the relationship between fingerprint utilization and patient satisfaction with registration services at the outpatient registration unit of R.A. Kartini Regional General Hospital (RSUD R.A. Kartini) Jepara. This research employed a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. The study sample consisted of 85 BPJS Kesehatan patients selected using an accidental sampling technique. Data were collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire (1–5) and analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Chi-Square test to determine the relationship between the variables. The results showed that the implementation of fingerprint verification in outpatient registration received positive evaluations and was categorized as effective, thereby contributing to increased patient satisfaction. The Chi-Square test produced a p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant relationship between patients' perceptions of fingerprint use and their satisfaction with registration services. However, several challenges were identified, particularly among elderly patients and in cases of network disruptions that affected the verification process. Improving service quality can be achieved through regular device maintenance and system updates to optimize the performance of the fingerprint verification system.

Zulfarkhannia Zulfarkhannia, Sukri Adani — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

This study investigates the distinctions and interrelationships between Final Test and Portfolio Assessment in evaluating the academic achievement of eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Susoh. A quantitative, comparative-correlational design was employed, with a sample of 61 students selected through total sampling. Secondary data, consisting of Final Test and Portfolio Assessment scores from official school records, were analyzed. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality test, the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test, and Spearman’s correlation, utilizing IBM SPSS Statistics version 26. The results indicate a significant difference between Final Test and Portfolio Assessment scores (p < 0.05), with Final Test scores generally higher than Portfolio Assessment scores. Furthermore, a significant positive correlation was found between the two assessment types, with a Spearman correlation coefficient of 0.565 (p < 0.05), suggesting that students with higher Final Test scores also tended to achieve higher Portfolio Assessment scores. These findings demonstrate that, although the two assessment methods yield different results, they are complementary in providing a comprehensive evaluation of students’ learning achievements. Therefore, integrating Final Test and Portfolio Assessment offers a more holistic approach to assessing student learning outcomes. The study's limitations include a relatively small sample size, focus on a single school, and reliance on secondary data, which may limit the generalizability of the findings.

REVIEWING ANIMATION FILM MEDIA IN IMPROVING STUDENTS' ENGLISH VOCABULARY

Puja Risma, Puan Tursina — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0400

Vocabulary mastery is essential for developing English language proficiency. However, many English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners continue to experience difficulties in acquiring and retaining vocabulary. Although numerous studies have investigated the use of animation films in vocabulary instruction, their findings remain fragmented across different educational levels. Therefore, this study aims to systematically review the positive impacts and challenges of using animation films to improve students’ English vocabulary learning in the Indonesian EFL context. A systematic literature review was conducted by analyzing 12 empirical studies published between 2016 and 2026. The studies were retrieved from Google Scholar using predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria and analyzed through Braun and Clarke’s six-phase thematic analysis. Taguette software was used to facilitate the coding and categorization process. The analysis generated two overarching themes and eleven sub-themes. The findings revealed six major positive impacts of animation films: improved vocabulary mastery, positive learner perceptions, increased motivation and classroom engagement, enhanced vocabulary comprehension through visual context, supported incidental vocabulary learning, and promoted autonomous learning. However, the review also identified five recurring challenges, namely fast-paced dialogue, dependence on subtitles, uneven learning outcomes, distractions during learning, and technical issues. Overall, the findings indicate that animation films are an effective instructional medium for supporting vocabulary learning by providing meaningful, contextualized, and engaging learning experiences. Nevertheless, their successful implementation depends on careful instructional planning, appropriate media selection, teacher guidance, and adequate technological support. This review contributes to the existing literature by providing a comprehensive synthesis of both the pedagogical benefits and implementation challenges of animation films in English vocabulary instruction across different educational levels in Indonesian EFL classrooms.
