Abstract

Purpose: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among children, particularly those under the age of five. This study aimed to compare white blood cell (WBC) count and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) between children with complicated and uncomplicated pneumonia hospitalized at Dr. Soetomo Hospital Surabaya. Research methodology: This retrospective study evaluated 49 children hospitalized with CAP from January to October 2021. Pneumonia was diagnosed based on symptoms (fever, cough, dyspnea) and physical findings (tachypnea, chest indrawing, rales). The comparison of WBC count and NLR of children with and without pneumonia complications was made using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results: Of the 49 patients, 28 (57.1%) were male and 40 (81.6%) were under five years old. The median hospital stay was 7 (Interquartile Range [IQR] 4.5 – 9) days. Nine patients (18.4%) had complications, including pneumothorax (33%) and sepsis (22%). Patients with complications had higher median WBC counts (19.5 [IQR 7.2 – 25.1] vs. 12.7 [IQR 10.7 – 15.7] x103/mm3, p=0.224). Similarly, the median NLR was found higher in the complicated pneumonia group (2.9 [IQR 1.5 – 10.8]) than uncomplicated group (1.7 [IQR 0.9 – 4.4], p=0.178). Limitations: The few sample size and retrospective nature of the study limits the generalizability of the findings. Future studies with larger sample sizes and the inclusion of additional biomarkers are warranted to confirm our findings. Contribution: These trends suggest potential utility of WBC count and NLR as biomarkers for pneumonia severity, warranting further research with larger cohorts.

The aim of this research is to form a disciplined character in students through Islamic education, where Islamic education is a process of deepening and understanding the values ​​of students' knowledge to achieve equality and perfection in life. The method used in this research is a qualitative method with a library approach, collecting sources such as books, journal articles, etc. to be analyzed, then interpreted critically and presented more systematically about the function of Islamic education in the formation of discipline. The results of the research show that the role of Islamic education, including providing religious material, habituation, advice, warnings, and the example of educators, can shape students' disciplined character.

Abstract

Bimbingan dan konseling (BK) merupakan salah satu aspek esensial dalam dunia pendidikan yang berfungsi tidak hanya sebagai pendukung pembelajaran, tetapi juga sebagai fondasi dalam pembentukan karakter dan pengembangan potensi peserta didik secara menyeluruh. Dalam konteks pendidikan Indonesia yang sedang bertransformasi menuju era digital dan globalisasi, peran BK semakin krusial. Layanan ini membantu siswa dalam menghadapi tantangan psikologis, sosial, akademik, dan karier, serta menyediakan ruang aman untuk mengaktualisasikan diri. Artikel ini menyajikan kajian mendalam mengenai sejarah, kedudukan, dan urgensi bimbingan dan konseling dalam sistem pendidikan nasional dengan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif berbasis studi pustaka dan refleksi empiris terhadap dinamika pendidikan di Indonesia. Temuan utama menunjukkan bahwa meskipun regulasi sudah mengakui peran strategis BK, implementasinya masih menghadapi berbagai kendala, mulai dari kekurangan tenaga profesional hingga rendahnya pemahaman masyarakat sekolah terhadap fungsi BK (Fitriani et al., 2022; Anggraini et al., 2021). Penelitian ini juga menekankan pentingnya transformasi pendekatan BK yang lebih humanistik, partisipatif, dan berbasis data untuk menjawab tantangan pendidikan modern.
