Abstract

Search and Rescue (SAR) operations are a form of public service that is emergency and oriented towards saving human lives. The successful implementation of SAR operation policies is highly determined by the effectiveness of communication and the availability of adequate resources. This study aims to analyze the role of communication and resources in the implementation of SAR operating policies. The research uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive method through interview, observation, and documentation techniques. The results of the study show that non-optimal communication, especially in information transmission, as well as the limitation of human resources who have the competence to plan SAR operations are inhibiting factors in the implementation of policies. This research emphasizes the importance of strengthening communication systems and increasing resource capacity as the main prerequisites for the successful implementation of SAR operation policies.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus remains a major global health problem, driving the search for safe and effective natural antidiabetic agents. This quasi-experimental study evaluates the antidiabetic activity of the ethyl acetate fraction of bengkal leaves (Nauclea orientalis L.) and determines the optimal dose in alloxan-induced male mice. Using a completely randomized design, 30 mice were divided into six groups: negative control, positive control (glibenclamide 0.65 mg/kgBW), and treatment groups receiving 150, 300, 450, and 600 mg/kgBW of the ethyl acetate fraction. Blood glucose levels were measured on days 1, 3, and 7 and analyzed using ANOVA and Duncan’s post hoc test. The results show a significant reduction in blood glucose levels (p < 0.001), with the 450 mg/kgBW dose being the most effective, producing a 49.53% decrease on day 7, comparable to the positive control. Higher doses showed lower effectiveness. The study concludes that the ethyl acetate fraction of bengkal leaves has strong antidiabetic activity and potential for development as a phytopharmaceutical candidate for diabetes management.

Abstract

Banking stability is crucial for maintaining financial system resilience amid rising financial risks and post-pandemic economic uncertainty. This study examines the effect of financial risk management practices on the stability of conventional commercial banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Using a quantitative explanatory approach, the study analyzes secondary data from annual financial statements and Financial Services Authority statistics for 30 banks over the 2019–2024 period (180 panel observations). Panel data regression was applied, with model selection conducted through the Chow, Hausman, and Lagrange Multiplier tests. The results indicate that credit risk, proxied by Non-Performing Loans, has a negative and significant effect on banking stability, while liquidity and market risks show varying effects depending on bank characteristics. These findings highlight the critical role of effective risk management in sustaining banking stability and provide insights for regulators and bank management in developing sustainable risk management policies.

Abstract

Community diet quality remains a public health challenge, and evidence from integrated evaluations of community-based nutrition interventions is still limited. This mixed-methods quasi-experimental study evaluated a 10-week community-based nutrition intervention in two peri-urban communities around Medan City, involving 80 housewives divided into intervention and control groups. The intervention combined nutrition education, local food–based cooking demonstrations, and cadre assistance. Quantitative analysis showed significant improvements in diet quality, food diversity, and nutritional status in the intervention group compared to the control group. Qualitative findings indicated increased nutritional knowledge, local food processing skills, and motivation to sustain healthy eating behaviors. Overall, the study demonstrates that community-based nutrition interventions integrating local empowerment and multidimensional evaluation are effective promotive–preventive strategies with strong potential for sustainable public health programs.

Abstract

Urban green public spaces play a vital role in environmental quality and social life, yet their design often prioritizes physical and aesthetic aspects while overlooking diverse user experiences, limiting inclusivity across age, gender, and social groups. This study analyzes user experiences of urban green public spaces to inform more inclusive design principles in architecture and urban design. Using a mixed-methods approach, qualitative data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 10 purposively selected users, while quantitative data were obtained from a survey of 100 respondents across two sites in the Minahasa Peninsula (North Minahasa and Tondano). Data were analyzed using thematic analysis and descriptive statistics. The findings indicate that user comfort, accessibility, and sense of safety are shaped not only by physical elements but also by circulation quality, spatial legibility, and design flexibility for formal and informal activities. The study demonstrates that a user experience–based approach reveals overlooked dimensions of inclusivity and proposes contextual, applicable design principles for developing more equitable, responsive, and sustainable urban green public spaces.
