Abstract

Background: Cardiomyopathy is a heart muscle disorder so which the heart cannot contract optimally. Alcoholic cardiomyopathy is a type of cardiomyopathy that dilates due to long-term alcohol consumption. The prevalence of alcoholic cardiomyopathy is higher in men than women. The age group with the most alcoholic cardiomyopathy was 45 to 74 year. Death from alcoholic cardiomyopathy had an autopsy result marked muscle dilatation. A toxicological examination can show the level of alcohol consumed. The cause of death in alcoholic cardiomyopathy is muscle dilatation due to chronic ethanol abuse. Islam expressly forbids something that makes losing mind, like alcohol. Alcohol has many disadvantages for the consumer in the form of loss of mind and turning away from Allah. Objective: This report aims to learn more about the definition, pathophysiology, clinical manifestation, and treatment of Alcoholic Cardiomyopathy. Also, Knowing and explaining Alcoholic Cardiomyopathy in terms of death and Islamic views. Methods: The design of this research is a literature review or library review, which is a systematic, direct, and reproducible research method by identifying, evaluating, and synthesizing published research.  Result: Alcoholic cardiomyopathy is a clinical diagnosis made in a patient with a set of findings that include a history of excessive alcohol consumption, possible physical signs of alcohol abuse (e.g., parotid disease, telangiectasia or spider angiomata, altered mental status, cirrhosis), heart failure, and other evidence consistent with dilated cardiomyopathy. People who frequently consume alcohol can cause nutritional disorders, especially vitamin B1 deficiency can cause cardiomyopathy. Alcohol will also cause abnormalities in the structure and function of mitochondria in heart cells. These abnormalities include enlarged mitochondrial structure, decreased metabolism, lack of several enzymes decreased ion transport, increased calcium flow, glycogen accumulation, and decreased ATP production. Conclusion: Cardiomyopathy is a heart muscle function disorder characterized by the loss of the ability of the heart muscle to pump blood so that the blood supply is not optimal and results in death. The most common cause is chronic alcohol consumption, which causes dilatation of the heart muscle. At the same time, alcohol is an ingredient that is forbidden to be consumed by Muslims because of its more significant impact.

Abstract

Character education in Papua, Indonesia, has become a focal point of educational reform. Papua, with its rich cultural diversity and challenges, presents unique opportunities and hurdles in the advancement of character-building practices within its educational system. This study examines the development of character education programs in Papua, analyzing their implementation, successes, and challenges in comparison to other regions in Indonesia. Data was collected from government reports, educational policies, and interviews with local educators. The research highlights the importance of integrating local culture and values in character education, alongside the national curriculum. Furthermore, it explores the role of community engagement in fostering a supportive environment for character education. The findings suggest that while significant progress has been made, challenges related to infrastructure, teacher training, and the integration of indigenous values remain. The study concludes with recommendations for improving the effectiveness of character education in Papua, aiming to create a more holistic educational experience for students.

Abstract

Schizophrenia is a chronic psychiatric disorder that imposes a substantial burden on patients and caregivers. Antipsychotic polypharmacy remains a common clinical practice to manage persistent positive and negative symptoms, although growing evidence indicates it does not significantly improve treatment outcomes and may instead increase adverse effects, treatment costs, and non-adherence. This case study aimed to describe the clinical benefits and rational considerations of switching from antipsychotic polypharmacy to monotherapy in a patient with hebephrenic schizophrenia. A 37-year-old woman with a 20-year history of hebephrenic schizophrenia was observed. She had previously received a combination of chlorpromazine and trifluoperazine with trihexyphenidyl for extrapyramidal symptom prevention. Clinical evaluations were performed to assess therapeutic effects, side effects, and medication adherence before and after the switch to chlorpromazine monotherapy. During the polypharmacy phase, the patient experienced several side effects, including insomnia, restlessness, irritability, and mild extrapyramidal symptoms. After transitioning to monotherapy with an adjusted chlorpromazine dose, she showed notable improvement in psychotic symptoms, sleep quality, and social functioning without severe adverse reactions. Medication adherence increased as the patient reported greater comfort and tolerance with a single-drug regimen. This case suggests that switching from antipsychotic polypharmacy to monotherapy can reduce side effects, improve adherence, and maintain clinical stability. Rational and individualized use of antipsychotics should be prioritized to achieve better long-term outcomes and quality of life in schizophrenia management.
