Abstract

Household waste management remains a significant challenge in many regions, including rural areas. The low level of environmental literacy among the community, particularly children, is one of the main factors contributing to the lack of awareness regarding the importance of sustainable waste management. This community service program aimed to improve environmental literacy among elementary school students in Citeluk Village, Pandeglang Regency, through an educational and participatory workshop. The program was carried out in two main sessions: an environmental literacy session delivered interactively, and a practical session involving the creation of flower pots from used plastic bottles. The results showed an increase in students’ understanding of types of waste and their environmental impact, as well as basic skills in recycling plastic waste into useful items. Additionally, the activity fostered ecological awareness and creativity in utilizing waste materials. This initiative had a positive impact and has the potential to be further developed as a school- and community-based environmental education model.

Abstract

The prevalence of married women of childbearing age using contraception in Serang City is 53.34%, the third lowest in Banten Province. In 2023, Kasemen District was recorded as the area with the lowest number of new contraceptive acceptors in Serang City (58% of the target). One of the main challenges of the family planning program is the high unmet need due to non-compliance with contraceptive use, which can reduce the effectiveness of contraception and increase the risk of unwanted pregnancies and maternal and child mortality. This study was conducted to analyze the relationship between knowledge of contraception and compliance to contraceptive use among women of childbearing age in Kasemen District. The study used an analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach, involving 36 respondents selected by stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a validated contraceptive knowledge questionnaire and the 2017 SDKI questionnaire in the contraception section, and analyzed using Fisher's Exact test. The results showed that 58.3% of respondents had good knowledge and 72.2% were compliant in using contraception. Fisher's Exact test showed no significant relationship between knowledge and compliance with contraceptive use with a p-value of 0.26 (>0.05). The conclusion in this study is that there is no relationship between contraceptive knowledge and compliance with contraceptive use in women of childbearing age in Kasemen District. Compliance with contraceptive use may be influenced by other factors, such as the role of family planning cadres and access to free family planning services.

Abstract

Breakfast is an essential daily meal that plays a key role in supporting both metabolic and cognitive functions. Glucose, as the brain’s primary energy source, is crucial for maintaining attention, memory, and executive function through neuronal activity and neurotransmitter regulation. This review aims to explore how breakfast consumption influences cognitive attention through mechanisms related to glucose metabolism. A narrative review approach was employed, drawing on literature from PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar published between 2015 and 2026. The findings indicate that eating breakfast helps restore and stabilize blood glucose levels after an overnight fast, thereby supporting cognitive performance—particularly in children and young adults. In addition, the quality and nutritional composition of breakfast, especially meals with a low glycemic index, contribute to more stable glucose levels and sustained cognitive function. In contrast, skipping breakfast has been associated with reduced attention and poorer mental performance. Overall, maintaining a regular and well-balanced breakfast appears to be an important factor in supporting cognitive function through effective glucose regulation, with meaningful implications for brain health and cognitive performance.

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

Hypertension is a condition characterized by an increase in systoic blood pressure >140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure >90 mmHg. One of the important risk factors for hypertension is elevated blood glucose levels (hyperglycemia). This study aimed to determine the association between random blood glucose levels and the occurence of hypertension at Syarif Hidayatullah Hospital, Jakarta. This study employed an observational analytic design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 90 respondents were included using consecutive sampling, with inclusion criteria of patients aged >18 years who had complete medical records of random blood glucose and blood pressure measurements. Bivariate analysis was performed using the Chi-Square test. The result showed that 42.2% of patients with hyperglycemia had hypertension, while 31.1% had hyperglycemia without hypertension. Among patients with normal blood glucose levels, 7.8% had hypertension and 18.9% had neither hypertension nor hyperglycemia. The Chi-Square analysis demonstrated a significant association between random blood glucose levels and hypertension (p = 0.017) with an odds ratio (OR) odf 2.588, indicating that patients with hyperglycemia had appoximately 2.6 times higher risk of developing hypertension compared to normoglycemic patients. In conclusion, there is a significant association between elevated random blood glucose levels and the occurance of hypertension, suggesting that hyperglycemia is an important risk factor for hypertension.

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

Lentigo senilis, also known as solar lentigo, is a common benign hyperpigmented lesion that is closely associated with chronic ultraviolet (UV) exposure and the skin aging process. Although non-malignant, lentigo senilis represents an important manifestation of photoaging and often causes cosmetic concerns, particularly among older individuals. This review aims to summarize current evidence regarding the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical characteristics, diagnostic approaches, and management of lentigo senilis using a thematic narrative review approach. A comprehensive literature search of major electronic databases identified relevant studies published between 2015 and 2025. The findings indicate that the prevalence of lentigo senilis increases significantly after the age of 50 years, particularly in individuals with cumulative sun exposure and lighter skin phototypes. The pathogenesis involves UV-induced melanocyte activation, dysregulation of melanogenesis signaling pathways, oxidative stress, and age-related decline in epidermal repair capacity. Clinically, lentigo senilis presents as flat, well-demarcated hyperpigmented macules on sun-exposed areas of the skin. Diagnosis is primarily established through clinical examination and dermoscopy to exclude malignant lesions with similar appearances. Management options include topical depigmenting agents, chemical peels, cryotherapy, laser-based therapies, and intense pulsed light, tailored to lesion characteristics and patient preferences. Preventive strategies emphasizing sun protection remain essential in reducing the incidence and progression of lentigo senilis.

Abstract

Histotechnology is a series of processes ranging from tissue handling to the preparation of slides that can be observed under a microscope. One crucial stage in this process is fixation, which serves to preserve the structure and morphology of the tissue as close as possible to its original physiological state. However, prolonged fixation duration may lead to tissue hardening, dissolution, and structural damage. This study aims to obtain supporting data for the development of a standard operating procedure (SOP) in histotechnology that can be applied in the animal house and histology laboratories of the Faculty of Medicine, Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University Jakarta. The results showed that fixation for three weeks caused morphological damage to the kidney, liver, and pancreas of Sprague Dawley rats. The findings included tissue perforation in all three organs, endothelial nuclear damage in the kidney, central vein wall damage in the liver, and cellular disintegration in the pancreatic islets of Langerhans. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that a fixation duration of three weeks does not produce optimal histological images and therefore cannot be used as a reference for establishing a standard histotechnology SOP in the laboratory of the Faculty of Medicine, Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University Jakarta.

Abstract

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health issue with a steadily increasing prevalence and often remains asymptomatic in its early stages. This silent progression contributes to delayed diagnosis and limited therapeutic options. Urinalysis is a simple, inexpensive, and noninvasive examination that remains relevant as an early screening tool to detect renal abnormalities before clinical manifestations appear. Methods: This narrative review summarizes the latest scientific evidence regarding the diagnostic value of urinalysis in the early detection of kidney disorders by highlighting the physical, chemical, and microscopic parameters of urine. Literature searches were conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases for studies published between 2020 and 2025 with the keywords urinalysis, kidney disease, early detection, uACR, and eGFR. Only English- or Indonesian-language articles relevant to the topic and containing empirical data were included. Results: Urinalysis has been shown to provide early indicators of proteinuria, hematuria, and pathological casts that reflect glomerular and tubular injury. Integration of urinalysis results with uACR and eGFR measurements, as recommended by KDIGO 2024, improves diagnostic accuracy and risk stratification. Additionally, automated digital microscopy and emerging biomarkers such as NGAL and KIM-1 show substantial potential in strengthening early detection capabilities. Discussion and Clinical Implications: Urinalysis not only serves as a screening tool but also holds prognostic value in guiding follow-up and clinical management of high-risk individuals. Proper interpretation of urinalysis findings can assist clinicians in determining the need for further assessment, initiating earlier interventions, and optimizing prevention of CKD progression. Conclusion: Urinalysis remains an essential basic examination for the early detection of kidney impairment. Its integrated application with modern laboratory parameters can enhance diagnostic effectiveness, accelerate clinical intervention, and reduce the global burden of chronic kidney disease.
