Abstract

Illegal gold mining (PETI) in Sijunjung Regency has triggered a severe environmental crisis, characterized by widespread heavy metal pollution from mercury (Hg) and arsenic (As) that threatens ecosystems and public health. To comprehensively assess this issue and evaluate existing management policies, this study conducted a systematic review following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, synthesizing evidence from 20 empirical studies. The results reveal that heavy metal concentrations in water, sediment, soil, and biota significantly exceed quality standards, with a clear spatial gradient emanating from PETI sites and a worrying increasing trend over time. Concurrently, the evaluation of management policies uncovered critical weaknesses, including institutional fragmentation, low law enforcement effectiveness (achieving only 45% of its target), and an over-reliance on ineffective repressive measures. In conclusion, the findings underscore the urgent need for a fundamental policy shift from a repressive to an integrative and sustainable model. This study proposes an evidence-based framework that combines stringent regulation, real-time monitoring, community-based economic empowerment, and public health interventions to holistically address the root causes and multifaceted impacts of PETI in Sijunjung.

Abstract

Managing hospital liquid waste is very important to prevent environmental pollution. Ibnu Sina Islamic Hospital in Padang, as a referral hospital, generates liquid waste that must be treated according to quality standards. This study aims to evaluate the management of liquid waste at RSI Ibnu Sina Padang in 2025, considering input, process, and output. The research method uses a descriptive qualitative approach or in-depth interviews thru interviews, observation, and document review with triangulation analysis. The number of informants to be studied is 6 people. The research results show that the inputs, including policies, human resources, budget, and infrastructure, are generally adequate. The planning process is carried out thru annual evaluations, implementation is based on SOPs, and routine monitoring is done with external laboratory tests. The output shows that most of the liquid waste parameters (BOD, COD, TSS, ammonia, oil and grease, pH) meet the quality standards, although fluctuations sometimes occur in pH and coliform. The main constraints are damage to the wastewater treatment plant equipment and delays in repairs due to funding/budget. It can be concluded that the management of liquid waste at RSI Ibnu Sina Padang has been quite effective, but continuous monitoring, the provision of backup equipment, and improved cross-sectoral coordination are still needed to optimally control environmental pollution.

Abstract

The global water pollution crisis exacerbated by anthropogenic activities demands effective integration between science and policy. This study conducted a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of 285 publications to map the intellectual landscape and evolutionary trajectory at the interface of liquid waste contamination and environmental policy. Findings reveal an exponential acceleration of research since 2014, with 75.78% of publications concentrated in the last decade, reflecting increasing global urgency. China dominates as the research epicenter with the highest productivity (56 publications), the greatest citation impact (1,914 citations), and a role as a key collaboration link. Thematic analysis confirms the consolidation of this field around the core concepts of “environmental policy” (228 occurrences) and “wastewater treatment” (215 occurrences), marking a paradigm shift from technocratic approaches toward holistic policy integration. However, the polarization of international collaboration into 10 cohesive clusters indicates a fragmentation of global discourse. Critically, this study identifies an alarming disparity between rapid scientific progress and lagging policy adoption capacity, highlighting the urgent need for adaptive policy frameworks and transdisciplinary collaboration mechanisms to bridge the implementation gap and respond more effectively to emerging contaminants.

Abstract

Agrotourism is a series of tourism activities that utilize agricultural potential as tourist attractions that can be enjoyed through natural scenery, plant and animal conservation, educational activities in agricultural and plantation areas that have a diversity of production activities and technologies, and can also promote community culture. Agrotourism potential can be developed through integrated agriculture such as farming, animal husbandry, and educational tourism. This study aims to identify the development of research related to the sustainability of agrotourism conducted worldwide through data obtained from relevant journals for the period 2000 to 2025. There are 58 studies related to the sustainability of agrotourism. The method used in this study is the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method. The SLR method is used to identify, review, evaluate, and interpret all available research in fields and topics related to relevant and specific research questions. Using the SLR method, systematic reviews and journal identification can be carried out, with each process following predetermined steps or protocols. The results of this study show that agrotourism research has shown consistent growth from 2000 to 2025, with a significant surge in 2024, indicating the importance of agrotourism in sustainable tourism. The country conducting the most research in the field of agrotourism sustainability is Indonesia, with research based on the number of citations each year 2000 to 2025 being 4 out of 20 studies.

Abstract

Many cases of disease in healthcare workers are suspected to be related to environmental conditions, but the relationship between these two factors has not been clearly described. This study conducted a literature review regarding the influence of environmental conditions on occupational diseases in healthcare workers. Relevant articles were searched through electronic databases such as PubMed, ProQuest, Google Scholar, and Springer, with publications spanning the last 5 years. The search used the English-language keywords: "Hospital Environmental Hygiene, Occupational Health, and Tuberculosis". The inclusion criteria for articles were: (1) full access available, (2) English language, (3) type of research and observation, and (4) primary focus on hospital room temperature and occupational health of healthcare workers. The selection process and presentation of results followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) scheme. Results: Of the 1033 articles found, 8 research articles met the requirements and were in accordance with the research objectives for analysis. Conclusion: Work environment conditions play an important role in the emergence of tuberculosis (TB) in healthcare workers. Strengthening environmental controls and organizational support are crucial to protecting healthcare workers from occupational TB risks and ensuring a safer healthcare system.Keywords: Hospital Environmental Hygiene, Healthcare Worker Occupational Health, and Tuberculosis (TB).
