Abstract

Abstract:  Pabuaran Village still faces health problems, one of which is pediculosis capitis. Therefore, this community service activity aims to diagnose pediculosis, carry out management and provide education in the form of counseling to Pabuaran Village residents, especially children and adolescents. Pediculosis eradication was carried out in January 2026 with a primary target of 40 people. Of the total children and adolescents examined, 29 children tested positive for pediculosis, so it can be interpreted that the prevalence of pediculosis in Pabuaran Village is 72.5%. There are 25 girls (62.5%) in Pabuaran Village who tested positive for pediculosis. In this activity, education was provided regarding the prevention of pediculosis capitis. Knowledge about Pediculosis Capitis plays a crucial role in preventing transmission to others. The educational material provided to residents included symptoms, transmission methods, complications, and management of pediculosis capitis. Pediculosis transmission can occur due to poor health behaviors, one of which is the habit of rarely washing hair. Children infested with head lice were given 1% permethrin shampoo and combed using the wet combing method. Pabuaran Village has a densely populated environment that facilitates the transmission of head lice. Therefore, awareness among all villagers is needed to maintain their health and prevent the spread of head lice.Abstrak: Desa Pabuaran masih memiliki masalah kesehatan, salah satunya pedikulosis kapitis.

Abstract

Cryptosporidiosis is a parasitic infection caused by protozoa of the Cryptosporidium genus that infect humans and animals worldwide. The disease remains a significant public health concern, particularly in regions with limited access to clean water and adequate sanitation. This study aimed to review recent scientific evidence regarding the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and management of cryptosporidiosis. A literature review method was employed by analyzing scientific articles published between 2015 and 2025 retrieved from databases including PubMed, Scopus and Google Scholar. Relevant studies were selected based on predefined inclusion criteria and analyzed narratively. The review indicates that Cryptosporidium hominis and Cryptosporidium parvum are the most common species causing human infection and account for the majority of cases worldwide. Transmission primarily occurs through the fecal–oral route via contaminated water or food, as well as direct contact with infected hosts. Infection involves parasite attachment and invasion of intestinal epithelial cells, leading to mucosal damage, malabsorption, and diarrhea. Clinical manifestations vary depending on the host's immune status, ranging from mild self-limiting diarrhea in immunocompetent individuals to severe and chronic infection in immunocompromised patients. Diagnosis is commonly established through microscopic detection of oocysts, antigen-based assays, and molecular methods such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Current management mainly focuses on supportive therapy, while nitazoxanide remains the only antiparasitic drug approved by the FDA for the treatment of cryptosporidiosis. Therefore, improvements in sanitation, development of diagnostic methods, and effective prevention strategies are essential to reduce the global burden of cryptosporidiosis.

Abstract

Caffeine is the most widely consumed stimulant compound globally and is well known for its ability to enhance alertness and reduce the perception of fatigue. In the context of sports and physical activity, caffeine has been identified as an effective ergogenic aid, improving both endurance and cognitive performance during intense exercise. This literature review aims to systematically evaluate the primary biochemical mechanisms of caffeine relevant to physical performance enhancement, particularly through its effects on the central nervous system and muscle metabolism. Biochemically, caffeine primarily functions by blocking adenosine receptors, thereby influencing neurotransmission and increasing sympathetic activity. Additionally, caffeine has been shown to affect energy substrate mobilization by enhancing lipolysis and sparing muscle glycogen. Interestingly, recent evidence suggests that caffeine also plays a role in muscle mass regulation through the activation of molecular pathways such as AMPK and mTOR. AMPK activation enhances metabolic efficiency and energy utilization, while mTOR is involved in protein synthesis and muscle hypertrophy, positioning caffeine as a potential candidate to support training adaptation and muscle mass maintenance. However, caffeine’s effectiveness is not uniform across individuals and may be influenced by various factors such as dosage, timing of consumption, type of exercise, as well as genetic and habitual factors. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of caffeine’s mechanisms of action is crucial for maximizing its benefits in supporting physical performance safely and effectively. This article summarizes the latest scientific findings providing physiological and molecular foundations regarding caffeine’s role in enhancing endurance and muscle mass, and offers insights for its application in sports and health practices.

Abstract

Mental health is a fundamental component of overall health that influences quality of life, productivity, and individuals’ social functioning. The development of mental disorders, such as depression and anxiety disorders, cannot be explained by a single factor; rather, it results from the interaction of multiple multidimensional determinants. This literature review aims to analyze the contribution of biological, psychological, and social factors to mental health based on current scientific evidence. This study employed a systematic narrative review approach. Literature searches were conducted in PubMed and Google Scholar databases using keywords related to mental health and biopsychosocial factors. The inclusion criteria comprised studies involving human populations published between 2015 and 2025 with observational, systematic review, or meta-analysis designs. Data were analyzed narratively to identify consistent patterns of findings. The results indicate that biological factors, such as genetic predisposition, neurotransmitter dysregulation, and medical comorbidities, increase vulnerability to mental disorders. Psychological factors, including coping strategies, emotion regulation, and exposure to stress and trauma, influence individuals’ psychological conditions. Social factors, such as social support, socioeconomic status, work or academic environment, and stigma, also play a significant role. In conclusion, mental health is the result of a dynamic interaction among biological, psychological, and social factors. Therefore, a comprehensive biopsychosocial approach is essential in promotive, preventive, and curative efforts.

Abstract

Inkubator mikrobiologi berfungsi penting dalam pembudidayaan mikroorganisme secara terkontrol di laboratorium. Penelitian ini mengembangkan sistem kontrol suhu inkubator berbasis Particle Swarm Optimization-Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PSO-PID) untuk meningkatkan kestabilan suhu dan responsivitas terhadap gangguan eksternal. PSO digunakan untuk mengoptimalkan parameter PID (Kp, Ki, Kd) secara adaptif, sehingga memungkinkan pengendalian suhu yang lebih presisi dan efisien dibandingkan dengan pengontrol PID konvensional. Hasil eksperimen menunjukkan pengontrol PSO-PID memberikan peningkatan signifikan dalam waktu respons dan stabilisasi suhu. Waktu kenaikan suhu berkurang 79,17% pada suhu 40°C, dan waktu stabilisasi berkurang 77,78%. Overshoot juga berkurang hingga 66,67%, sementara kesalahan keadaan tunak menurun 80%. Inkubasi bakteri Escherichia coli dan Staphylococcus aureus pada suhu setpoint 37°C menunjukkan pertumbuhan yang optimal dan konsisten, dengan distribusi koloni yang merata. PSO-PID terbukti efektif dalam menjaga kestabilan suhu inkubator dan meningkatkan presisi kontrol suhu. Sistem ini mengurangi ketergantungan pada kalibrasi manual dan meningkatkan keandalan eksperimen mikrobiologi. Penggunaan PSO-PID menawarkan solusi yang lebih adaptif, efisien, dan presisi untuk aplikasi mikrobiologi, menjadikannya pilihan yang ideal untuk inkubasi mikroorganisme yang memerlukan kondisi suhu yang konsisten dan stabil.

Abstract

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to major changes in the education system through the implementation of the school-from-home policy since March 16, 2020. This condition led to a significant increase in the intensity of gadget use among students, potentially triggering eye health problems such as computer vision syndrome (CVS). This study aimed to determine the prevalence of CVS and the factors influencing its occurrence among students at a private senior high school in Central Jakarta during the online learning period. Methods: A cross-sectional study using random sampling was conducted, and data were collected via online questionnaires completed by students. Results: Out of a total of 166 respondents, 74.7% of students experienced CVS symptoms. The most commonly reported complaints included itchy eyes (78.9%), watery eyes (69.3%), and headaches (63.9%). Most of these complaints were associated with prolonged gadget use, namely, more than 6 hours per day. Conclusion: The duration of digital device use during online learning and refractive error were important factors contributing to the prevalence of CVS among students. Promotive and preventive efforts are needed to reduce the risk of CVS through education on healthy gadget use during distance learning.
