Abstract

The aging process in the elderly affects not only physical capabilities but also cognitive function. Cognitive impairment in older adults is thought to be associated with physical activity and neurotrophic factors, particularly the serum level of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF). Majejaitan—a traditional form of activity involving fine motor coordination and repetitive hand movements—is hypothesized to exert a protective effect against cognitive impairment by increasing serum BDNF levels. This study aimed to examine the role of Majejaitan activity and elevated serum BDNF levels as potential protective factors against cognitive impairment in elderly individuals. An observational case-control study was conducted from November 2024 to January 2025 at the East Denpasar 1 Primary Health Care Center. The participants were women aged 50–60 years, divided equally into two groups: a case group (with cognitive impairment) and a control group (without cognitive impairment), each consisting of 19 participants. Cognitive impairment was assessed using the Indonesian version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-Ina), with scores below 26 indicating impairment. Majejaitan activity was defined as performing the activity at least three times per week for 30–60 minutes, and participants were classified as either active or inactive. Serum BDNF levels were measured using a sandwich-type ELISA with the Human BDNF ELISA Kit (BT LAB) and were categorized as high or not high based on receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.

Abstract

Futsal is a sport that requires speed and agility. However, the physical fitness measurements of futsal extracurricular students at MAN 2 Soppeng indicated below average speed and agility. This study aims to compare the effects of combining core stability exercise with plyometric training and ladder training on improving speed and agility. This was a true experimental study with the randomized match two groups design involving 22 students, divided into two groups of 11. Group 1 received CSE+PT, while Group 2 received CSE+LT for 6 weeks. Speed was measured using a 30-meter sprint test, and agility was assessed with the Illinois Agility Test. Both groups showed significant improvements in agility (p=<0.001). For speed, Group 1 showed p=0.003 and Group 2 p=<0.001. However, there was no significant difference between groups for speed improvement (p=0.061), while there was a significant difference in agility (p=<0.001). This study suggests CSE+LT is more effective in enhancing agility).

Abstract

The low level of Universal Coverage Jamsostek (UCJ) in Padang City reflects the limited access to social security protection, particularly for informal and vulnerable workers. This study aims to analyze the collaborative process among stakeholders in expanding BPJS Ketenagakerjaan participation and to identify the supporting and inhibiting factors. A descriptive qualitative method was employed through interviews, documentation, and observations, with data validated using source triangulation. Informants were selected through purposive sampling to ensure the representation of key actors. The findings reveal that the collaboration has not yet produced a significant increase in the number of participants from the informal sector. Nevertheless, the process has fostered equality of roles, stronger commitment, and more open communication among institutions. Theoretically, this research contributes to the development of Collaborative Governance studies by emphasizing the importance of process dynamics rather than solely focusing on outcomes. In terms of policy implications, the results highlight the need to strengthen regulations, provide sufficient budgetary support, and encourage active involvement of local governments to ensure the sustainability of cross-sector collaboration. Thus, efforts to expand social security coverage can become more structured, inclusive, and oriented toward the protection of informal workers who remain highly vulnerable.

Abstract

Medical nutrition therapy is essential in diabetes management, especially as diabetes is often linked with aging. Porang tuber flour contains glucomannan, a compound with potential glucose-lowering effects. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of porang flour feeding frequency on 2-hour postprandial blood glucose (2hPPBG) and HOMA-IR in diabetic rats. Using a quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test control group design, 21 male Wistar rats were induced with diabetes via streptozotocin and nicotinamide, then randomly assigned to three groups: G0 (control, given aquadest), G1 (porang flour 300 mg/kg BW daily), and G2 (porang flour 300 mg/kg BW every two days). Five rats died during treatment. Wilcoxon test results showed a difference in 2hPPBG levels between each group before and after treatment. There was no decrease in G0 (p = 0.893), but a decrease in G1 (p = 0.043) and G2 (p = 0.028). The difference between HOMA-IR before and after treatment did not decrease in groups G0 (p = 0.345), G1 (p = 0.138), and G2 (p = 0.249). Post hoc test for 2hPPBG levels between groups showed a significant difference between G0 and G1 (p<0.001), a significant difference between G0 and G2 (p<0.001), and no significant difference between G1 and G2 (p = 0.135). One-way ANOVA test of HOMA-IR showed no significant difference between G0, G1, and G2 (p = 0.148). It was concluded that porang flour can reduce 2hPPBG, but not HOMA-IR. There was no difference in 2hPPBG levels between administering porang flour daily and every other day.

Abstract

Nagari Salimpaung memiliki rencana untuk mengembangkan potensi wisatanya. Namun sayangnya, beberapa masalah membuat pengembangan pariwisata menjadi stagnan. Permasalahan yang mereka hadapi adalah 1) Belum adanya komitmen bersama antar stakeholders yang ada, 2) Belum adanya pemetaan potensi dan permasalahan dalam pengembangan pariwisata, dan 3) Belum optimalnya kelembagaan/aktor penggerak pengembangan pariwisata. Oleh karena itu, PKM ini bertujuan untuk membantu mitra dalam mengembangkan pariwisata dengan melibatkan pemangku kepentingan (elemen terkait) di nagari. Kegiatan yang telah dilaksanakan adalah: 1) Melakukan pretest untuk mengetahui tingkat pemahaman stakeholders dalam pengembangan wisata nagari, 2) Memberikan materi untuk memperkuat pemahaman stakeholders terhadap pengembangan desa wisata, dan 3) Menggali potensi wisata dengan menggali informasi dari pemangku kepentingan dengan menggunakan Participatory Rural Appraisal. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan bahwa tingkat pengetahuan dan pemahaman pemangku kepentingan mengenai pengembangan wisata nagari masih rendah. Dengan demikian, para pemangku kepentingan harus meningkatkan pengetahuan dan pemahamannya, terutama dalam mencapai komitmen bersama untuk pengembangan pariwisata di Nagari Salimpaung.
