Abstract

This study examines the forms of social stigma faced by pool players in the Special Region of Yogyakarta, as well as the interpersonal communication strategies they use to overcome it. Despite being recognized as an official sport, billiards is often viewed negatively by society and academics due to its association with nightlife and deviant behavior. As a result, pool players often face negative labels, stereotypes, and social and academic discrimination. This study uses a qualitative phenomenological approach with data collection techniques including in-depth interviews, participant observations, and documentation. The study participants were selected based on the criteria of active participation in the sport of billiards and experience in dealing with stigma. The results of the study showed that pool students experienced psychological stress, such as shyness, low self-esteem, and social isolation. However, they are not passive; They use a variety of interpersonal communication strategies as a form of social rejection, including reinforcing self-concept, adjusting interpersonal perceptions, developing positive interpersonal attractions, and maintaining supportive interpersonal relationships. This research supports Goffman's theory of social stigma and Jalaluddin Rakhmat's concept of interpersonal communication. This research makes a significant contribution to our understanding of how communication can be used to maintain personal identity and improve social acceptance in the context of cultural marginalization.

Abstract

Diabetic ulcers are a common and challenging complication of diabetes, contributing to morbidity, infection, and a high risk of amputation. Innovative adjuncts, such as topical polypeptide gel, which contains amino acids to support tissue regeneration, are proposed to accelerate wound healing; however, supporting clinical data are limited. A quasi-experimental analysis was conducted in 11 patients. Each received a daily topical 7% polypeptide gel in addition to standard care. Ulcer area was measured at baseline (day 0) and after 14 days using digital documentation analysis using ImageJ. The primary outcome was the percentage reduction in ulcer size. Patients were analysed for associations between percentage of improvement with age, gender, diabetes type, and ulcer site. Eleven patients with diabetic ulcers completed the 14-day treatment protocol. The cohort comprised 54.5% females with a mean age of 54.1 ± 7.3 years and predominantly insulin-dependent diabetes (72.7%). Baseline ulcer area averaged 982.1 ± 1315.1 mm², reducing to 184.0 ± 297.7 mm² by day 14, representing an 86.2 ± 6.7% mean area reduction. All patients achieved ?76% healing, with 45.5% achieving ?90% area reduction and 9.1% achieving complete healing. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test demonstrated statistically significant ulcer area reduction (Z = -2.934, p = 0.003). No significant associations were found between healing percentage and patient demographics, diabetes type, ulcer location, or comorbidity burden (all p > 0.05). No treatment-related adverse events were reported during the study period. Topical polypeptide gel demonstrated rapid wound surface area reduction in the majority of the subjects over 14 days, independent of patient age, gender, diabetes type, or ulcer location. These findings suggest its promise as an adjunctive early-phase therapy for diabetic ulcers.

Abstract

The implementation of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles has become a strategic factor in the management of modern corporations, particularly in the agribusiness sector, which is often challenged by environmental and social issues. This study focuses on PT Great Giant Pineapple (PT GGP), one of the largest horticultural companies in Indonesia, which has received a positive ESG rating. It aims to explore how ESG ratings influence managerial decision-making dynamics, organizational communication strategies, and both financial and non-financial corporate performance. The research adopts a constructivist paradigm and a qualitative case study approach. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews with PT GGP's internal managers, and document analysis, including sustainability reports and the company's external communication materials. This study employs the Organizational Identity Theory (Albert & Whetten, 1985), through which ESG ratings are understood to be internalized and reflected in the organization's identity—particularly in how the company defines itself in terms of sustainability and social responsibility. Additionally, the Institutional Theory (Scott, 2021) is applied to understand ESG ratings as a form of legitimacy required by global stakeholders. Overall, the findings indicate that ESG ratings are internalized by PT GGP's management not merely as administrative compliance tools, but as instruments of legitimacy and strategic compasses in decision-making processes. ESG serves as a framework for shaping the company's long-term strategies, especially in sustainable operations and stakeholder relations. PT GGP's ESG communication strategy has proven adaptive, integrating informing, responding, and involving approaches that build public credibility and trust in the company's sustainability commitment. The ESG rating also impacts corporate performance, where increased operational efficiency, consumer loyalty, and investor appeal serve as non-financial indicators contributing to corporate reputation and value. However, the study also identifies challenges such as the lack of standardized ESG indicators and the risk of greenwashing, which continue to hinder the full optimization of ESG's strategic value. These findings reinforce legitimacy theory, which posits ESG as a tool for articulating the values and norms society expects from corporations and as part of a communication strategy to maintain social legitimacy amid rising sustainability awareness. This research contributes theoretically to the development of sustainability-based strategic communication studies and offers practical implications for companies aiming to integrate ESG as part of their long-term corporate transformation.

Abstract

Regulation of the Minister of Health Number 24 of 2022 concerning Medical Records requires Health Service Facilities, including hospitals, to organize Electronic Medical Records and are also obliged to maintain the confidentiality of the data in them. However, cases of Electronic Medical Record data leakage that occur rampantly make patient data vulnerable to exposure and even illegal trading. The objectives of this study are to analyze hospital policies on EMR confidentiality and examine the legal framework governing EMR management in Indonesia. The research method uses a normative juridical approach with descriptive research specifications involving synthetic and perspective analysis, while the data collection technique employs literature review and field studies. The results show that hospital policies for maintaining data confidentiality in Electronic Medical Record implementation must follow provisions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations as stated in Law Number 17 of 2023 concerning Health, Regulation of the Minister of Health Number 24 of 2022 concerning Medical Records, and Law Number 27 of 2022 concerning Personal Data Protection. Hospitals must also act in accordance with the principles of good corporate governance. The corporate criminal liability model applicable to Electronic Medical Record data leaks occurring in hospitals positions the hospital as both the perpetrator of the crime and the responsible party; therefore, prosecution can be carried out and criminal sanctions can be imposed against the corporation itself.

Abstract

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common non-melanoma skin cancer in humans, developing on skin exposed to ultraviolet light and rarely metastasizing. Cancer stem cell markers such as CD133 have been extensively studied in various malignancies, but their expression in BCC remains controversial and has not been widely studied in Indonesia. Determine the difference in CD133 expression between BCC patients and normal skin. Analytical observational study with a case control design was conducted at Dr. Moewardi General Hospital in Surakarta from April to July 2025. The sample included 13 BCC tissues and 13 normal skin controls taken by consecutive sampling from paraffin blocks from 2021-2024. CD133 immunohistochemical staining was performed with Allred scoring by a single pathologist on at least four random fields of view. Descriptive analysis presented demographic characteristics and Allred scores, while the Chi square test was used to compare CD133 expression between groups with significance at p < 0.05. The mean CD133 Allred score was 7.15 ± 0.56 in KSB tissue and 7.31 ± 0.48 in normal skin. Strongly positive CD133 expression was found in 12/13 BCC patients and 13/13 normal skin. Chi square analysis showed no significant difference in CD133 expression between the BCC and normal skin groups (p=0.308). CD133 expression based on the Allred score did not differ significantly between BCC tissue and normal skin, indicating that CD133 is not useful as a single marker for the diagnosis or prognosis of KSB

Abstract

Urbanization and creative lifestyles have driven the emergence of new collaborative spaces in urban areas, including creative spaces built atop traditional markets. This study evaluates the property productivity of The Hallway Space, a youth-culture-based creative space developed on the upper floor of Pasar Kosambi, Bandung, using the Property Productivity Analysis framework (Wilkinson & Reed, 2008), which includes physical, legal, and locational attributes. The research adopts a qualitative-descriptive approach through a case study strategy, utilizing data triangulation from primary sources (semi-structured interviews with the manager and tenants) and secondary sources (Google Maps online reviews analyzed through content analysis, text mining, and open coding). The findings indicate that The Hallway Space successfully creates social and visual added value, enhances place identity, and fosters community interaction, though it still faces challenges related to thermal comfort, navigation, and vertical accessibility. Most visitors perceive the space positively in terms of activities and social atmosphere, despite issues concerning signage and ventilation. This study highlights the importance of evaluating creative spaces not only from social and cultural aspects but also as productive and sustainable commercial properties, particularly in the context of adaptive reuse within traditional market environments.

Abstract

Project management is crucial to the success of infrastructure development, including healthcare facility projects such as community health centers. This study aims to analyze time and cost management in a community health center construction project in Kakaskasen Village, Tomohon City. The research method used earned value management (EVM) analysis to evaluate project performance, specifically schedule and cost. The results showed that the project experienced significant time and cost deviations in several construction projects. The schedule performance index was below 1, indicating project delays, while the cost performance index was also below 1, indicating cost overruns. Factors contributing to the delays included poor coordination with relevant parties, delays in material procurement, and unfavorable weather conditions. Proposed recommendations include improving initial planning, strengthening risk management, and more intensive progress monitoring to ensure project completion meets established targets. This research is expected to contribute to improving the management of similar projects.

Abstract

Acne vulgaris (AV) is an inflammatory skin disorder with multifactorial pathogenesis involving genetics, hormones, and immune dysregulation. Interleukin-21 (IL-21), a pleiotropic cytokine mainly secreted by T follicular helper and Th17 cells, has been implicated in various inflammatory skin diseases. However, its role in AV remains unclear. This cross-sectional study included 46 patients with AV, classified into mild (n=19), moderate (n=16), and severe (n=11) groups. Serum IL-21 levels were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Baseline characteristics were compared across groups, and interobserver reliability of AV severity grading was evaluated using Cohen’s kappa test. One-way ANOVA was applied to assess differences in IL-21 levels among severity groups, with a significance level set at p<0.05. The mean serum IL-21 level was highest in the severe AV group (303.53 pg/mL), followed by the moderate (223.7 pg/mL) and mild (213.2 pg/mL) groups. Although there was a trend toward increasing IL-21 levels with higher AV severity, statistical analysis revealed no significant difference among the three groups (p=0.130). Serum IL-21 levels were elevated in AV patients compared with previously reported healthy controls but did not differ significantly across severity levels. These findings suggest that IL-21 may play a role in the pathophysiology of AV, though it is not a reliable marker of clinical severity. Further case-control and tissue-based studies are needed to clarify its role.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the influence of service quality and store atmosphere on store patronage with customer satisfaction as a mediating variable, as well as to test the moderating role of store atmosphere. The research object is Toko Salmah, a semi-modern retail store in Balikpapan. A quantitative approach was employed using a Likert-scale questionnaire distributed to 150 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using Moderated Mediation Regression Analysis (MMRA) with PROCESS Macro Model 59 in SPSS. The results indicate that service quality has a positive and significant effect on customer satisfaction (b = 0.603; p < 0.001), and customer satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on store patronage (b = 0.556; p < 0.001). Furthermore, customer satisfaction mediates the effect of service quality on store patronage. However, store atmosphere was not found to be a significant moderator but acts as a direct predictor of customer satisfaction (b = 0.345; p = 0.006) and store patronage (b = 0.207; p = 0.021). These findings highlight that service quality and customer satisfaction are the primary drivers of customer loyalty, while store atmosphere contributes as a direct predictor rather than as a moderating factor. The study provides practical implications for local retailers in designing service strategies and shopping experiences that prioritize customer satisfaction.

Abstract

Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is a skin disorder that results from contact with an allergenic substance. Allergic contact dermatitis is most commonly caused by cosmetics and daily products. This case report describes a case of contact dermatitis caused by soap suspected of containing sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and fragrance with a positive patch test result. A 36-year-old man presented with complaints of hand skin redness, itching and scaling. A history of using dish and hand soap products was obtained. Dermatologic examination showed multiple erythematous patches with overlying squamous, xerotic skin suggestive of DKA. The patient underwent patch test examination with standardized materials and materials brought by the patient to confirm the diagnosis. The patient showed positive reactions to Sunlight® dishwashing liquid soap, Super pell® mop soap, wow® dish soap, calmic® hand soap, and so iln® liquid detergent. The diagnosis of BCC can be established based on anamnesis, physical, and anatomical histopathological examination. Diagnosis of BCC is accomplished by accurate interpretation of the skin biopsy results. Histopathological examination should be performed in cases of doubtful lesions, large tumors or ulcerations for which the diagnosis is uncertain and to assess surgical margins. Therapy for BCC is preventive and curative. Therapy selection depends on the patient's age and gender as well as the site, size, and type of lesion.
