Abstract

Disturbance depressive is a mental health disorder that is often associated with cognitive decline. Nutrition, particularly polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) intake, is thought to play a role in maintaining brain health and cognitive function. However, evidence of a link between PUFA intake and cognitive function as measured by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Indonesian version (MoCA-Ina), in patients with depressive disorders remains limited. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between PUFA intake and cognitive function in psychiatric patients with depressive disorders. This was an analytical study using secondary data from patients with depressive disorders at Dr. Kariadi General Hospital, Diponegoro National Hospital, Banyumanik Hospital 1, and Elisabeth Hospital Semarang from May 2022 to 2023. The study included patients aged 18–60 years who were diagnosed with depressive disorders, had completed the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) and MoCA-Ina assessments, and had no serious physical illness or metabolic syndrome. The analysis used the Spearman correlation test to assess the relationship between PUFA intake and cognitive function, as well as the Mann–Whitney test for comparisons based on PUFA intake categories. A total of 30 patients with depressive disorders were included, of whom 83.3% were female, with a mean age of 26.03 years. The mean PUFA intake was 6.31 grams, and the mean MoCA-Ina score was 27.67. The Spearman test showed no significant association between PUFA intake and cognitive function (p = 0.790). There was no significant relationship between PUFA intake and cognitive function in patients with depressive disorders.

Abstract

Background: This study developed a novel process for producing liquid smoke from coconut shell waste through controlled pyrolysis, optimized by airflow control and a multistage biofilter using agricultural wastes (coconut fiber, rice husk, and coconut shell charcoal). Objective: To optimize liquid smoke production using coconut shell waste, control airflow during pyrolysis, and improve efficiency with an agricultural waste biofilter. Methods: Response Surface Methodology (RSM) identified the optimal conditions: 315 °C temperature, 65-min residence time, and a primary/secondary airflow ratio of 1:1.2. Temperature was the most significant factor, as validated by ANOVA, with a high R² model fit. GC-MS analysis identified 42 chemical compounds, and the condenser design and PID controller ensured efficient condensation and operational stability. Results: Under optimal conditions, the process yielded 68.5 mL/kg with a phenolic content of 93.2 mg GAE/g, a pH of 2.85, and no benzo[a]pyrene. FTIR analysis confirmed the presence of high-quality functional groups in the liquid smoke, including phenolic, guaiacol, 4-ethylphenol, and creosol compounds. The agricultural waste biofilter achieved 78.3% PAH removal and 94.5% phenolic compound retention with low pressure drop and minimal production cost compared to commercial filters. Conclusion: This innovative liquid smoke production process using coconut shell waste and agricultural waste biofilters is sustainable, low cost, and environmentally friendly. It effectively valorizes biomass waste, minimizes pollution, and produces food-grade liquid smoke, supporting the circular economy.

Abstract

This study seeks to develop a more workable and structured strategic performance framework for RSUD Jampangkulon by applying the Balanced Scorecard and using the Nine Steps to Success as an implementation path. This study seeks to develop a more workable and structured strategic performance framework for RSUD Jampangkulon by applying the Balanced Scorecard and using the Nine Steps to Success as an implementation path. The research follows an analytical case study approach. An initial screening phase is used to identify a small set of performance framework options through a structured literature-based shortlist, then Value Focused Thinking is applied to decide which option fits the hospital needs most closely. The main phase develops the scorecard in a full sequence, starting from a program launch to set working boundaries, followed by situation assessment, strategy formulation, objective setting, strategy mapping, selection of a lean set of core KPIs from an existing indicator bank, design of linked strategic initiatives, preparation of monitoring and performance analysis routines, tier based alignment through cascading with role clarity, and the definition of an evaluation and refresh cycle. The findings suggest that dispersed mandated indicators can be reshaped into a manageable core scorecard that supports routine control, supported by a strategy map treated as a working hypothesis, more stable KPI definitions, an initiative portfolio tied to measures, and a review rhythm that encourages follow up actions.

Abstract

The electability of Minangkabau women in the House of Representatives has shown inconsistent development since the beginning of the post-reform democratic period, despite women holding an important role in the Minangkabau matrilineal cultural structure. Historically, West Sumatra has been among the provinces with the lowest levels of female representation in the House of Representatives. From the 1999 to 2014 general elections, no more than one woman was elected in any single term, and in some election periods no woman managed to gain a seat in parliament. However, the 2019 legislative elections marked the most significant change in two decades: three Minangkabau women won seats simultaneously, the highest number recorded since the reform era. This research aims to trace the historical development of Minangkabau women's electability from 1999 to 2019 and to analyse the key factors that enabled their electoral breakthrough in the 2019 legislative elections. Using a literature-based qualitative approach, this article traces the development of Minangkabau women's electability across this period and examines the factors that enabled the breakthrough in 2019. The findings show that the increase in the success of female candidates in 2019 was primarily driven by access to political capital — such as elite networks and party support — and strong social capital resources associated with community legitimacy and family reputation. This research concludes that matrilineal status does not necessarily translate into electoral gains for women, and that sustainable political representation relies heavily on structural, partisan, and resource-based dynamics.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of digital technology has transformed the business environment and compelled Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) to adopt digital strategies to maintain competitiveness. In the printing industry, many MSMEs still rely on conventional business processes despite having limited digital presence, resulting in suboptimal customer engagement and brand development. This study aims to develop and validate a digital transformation model that strengthens brand equity and competitiveness through website quality in printing MSMEs. A sequential mixed-method approach was employed, consisting of website system development and quantitative evaluation. Data were collected from 100 customers of Buana Jaya Printing who had interacted with the newly developed digital platform. Respondents were selected using purposive sampling, and the data were analysed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 4.0. The findings reveal that digital transformation has a significant positive effect on website quality and brand equity. Website quality also significantly enhances brand equity by improving user experience, trust, and customer satisfaction. Furthermore, brand equity was found to positively influence competitiveness, indicating that stronger brand value contributes to sustainable market advantage. The mediation analysis confirms that website quality serves as an important mechanism through which digital transformation strengthens brand equity. In conclusion, digital transformation supported by high-quality websites can significantly improve brand equity and competitiveness, providing a strategic pathway for printing MSMEs to achieve sustainable growth in the digital era.

Abstract

The general insurance industry has a strategic role in the national financial system through its risk management and public fundraising functions. This study aims to analyze the influence of underwriting results and investment income on profitability and company value, as well as examine the role of profitability as a mediating variable in general insurance companies in Indonesia. This study uses a quantitative method with secondary data obtained from the annual financial statements of general insurance companies for the period 2020–2024. The research sample consisted of general insurance companies selected through purposive sampling techniques. The analysis technique used was panel data regression with data processing using EViews software. The results show that underwriting results have a positive and significant effect on profitability, while investment income does not have a significant effect on profitability. Simultaneously, underwriting results and investment income have a significant effect on profitability. Furthermore, underwriting results and profitability do not have a significant effect on the company's value, while investment income has a positive and significant effect on the company's value. The results of the mediation test showed that profitability did not mediate the effect of underwriting results or investment income on the company's value. These findings indicate that underwriting performance plays a more role in determining profitability, while investment income is more directly considered by the market in assessing the value of the company.

Abstract

Decision-making in the household, including decisions made by women, affects consumption patterns because it determines the allocation of limited resources across various needs. This study analyses the influence of family income, work time allocation, education, and the role of parents on the decision-making of women and their daughters; the influence of these variables and decision-making on household consumption behaviour in Tabanan Regency; indirect influence through decision-making as a mediating variable; and the role of the Nyentana tradition in maintaining family assets and traditions. The study involved 30 women and daughters as respondents, with supporting informants including female family members, male family members (nyentana), the Tabanan Regency Customary Village Assembly, the Women and Children Empowerment and Protection Office, and NGOs and academics. The sampling technique employed accidental and snowball sampling. Data were collected through observation, structured interviews, and in-depth interviews. Analysis was carried out through descriptive analysis, path analysis, and descriptive narrative, accompanied by validity and reliability tests. The results show that family income, work time allocation, education, and parental roles have a positive and significant effect on decision-making, and a positive and significant effect on household consumption behaviour. Decision-making has been proven to mediate the influence of these variables on consumption behaviour. In addition, the nyentana tradition can serve as a strategy to address household challenges in maintaining the continuity of family lineage, the rebuttal of claims, and the ownership and management of family inheritance, so that these are not disrupted or transferred outside the family line.

Abstract

Hypertension remains one of the leading global public health problems and is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The widespread implementation of COVID-19 vaccination, particularly mRNA-based vaccines, has raised concerns regarding potential cardiovascular effects, including transient blood pressure changes. This study aimed to evaluate hypertension treatment outcomes in patients who had received mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines and to analyze the influence of sociodemographic factors on clinical outcomes. A quantitative analytic study with a retrospective cross-sectional design was conducted using electronic medical records from 400 adult hypertensive patients who received Pfizer or Moderna vaccines. Data included blood pressure measurements before and after vaccination, number of antihypertensive medications, comorbidities, and sociodemographic characteristics. Statistical analysis was performed using non-parametric tests. The results showed no statistically significant difference in the number of antihypertensive drugs before and after vaccination (median 2.00; p = 0.451). There were also no significant associations between sociodemographic variables and post-vaccination blood pressure, except a limited association with systolic blood pressure in patients with comorbidities. Overall, mRNA COVID-19 vaccination did not significantly affect antihypertensive therapy requirements or blood pressure control. These findings support the safety of mRNA vaccination in hypertensive patients, although continued monitoring, particularly of systolic blood pressure in patients with comorbid conditions, remains recommended.

Abstract

This study examines the affirmative policy for the recruitment of State Civil Apparatus Candidates (CASN) with disabilities in Tangerang City, Indonesia. The background of this research is the persistent employment inequality experienced by persons with disabilities despite the existence of national regulations mandating equal employment opportunities and disability quotas in government institutions. The study aims to analyze the design and implementation of the affirmative recruitment policy using Chambers and Bonk’s six elements of social policy and the Sen–Nussbaum capability approach. This research employed a qualitative case study method focusing on CASN recruitment periods in 2019, 2021, and 2023. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with government officials, civil servants with disabilities, and disability community representatives, as well as observation and document analysis. The findings show that the policy has successfully provided formal employment access through special quotas, lower examination thresholds, and accessible recruitment services. However, several limitations remain, including inadequate policy socialization, limited workplace accommodation, inaccessible information systems, and the persistence of social stigma in the work environment. These conditions narrow several capabilities of employees with disabilities, particularly bodily integrity and affiliation. The study concludes that affirmative recruitment policy should not only focus on quota fulfilment but also ensure inclusive workplace systems that expand the substantive freedom, dignity, and capabilities of persons with disabilities.

Abstract

Background: Digital transformation in the health sector, including the implementation of Hospital Management Information Systems (HMIS), has become a key factor in improving the efficiency of healthcare services in Indonesia. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of HMIS in enhancing hospital operational efficiency and to identify the factors that support and hinder its implementation. Method: A scoping review method was employed, analyzing 10 selected articles from databases such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and Garuda published between 2018 and 2025. Results: The findings suggest that HMIS has the potential to enhance efficiency by automating administrative processes, integrating data systems, and reducing operational costs. However, its implementation still faces multidimensional challenges, with approximately 80% of issues arising from non-technical factors—such as the absence of standardized operating procedures, limited human resource competencies, and weak management commitment—while the remaining 20% are related to limitations in technical infrastructure. Studies by Waruwu et al. (2024) and Handayani et al. (2018) confirm that human resource training and strong leadership are critical factors for successful implementation. Conclusions: The conclusions of this study emphasize the need for a holistic approach that combines technological improvements, strengthening of human resource capacity, and the implementation of sustainable policies. Policy recommendations include the development of standardized Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), regular training programs, infrastructure improvements, and routine evaluation mechanisms. These findings provide a comprehensive perspective for policymakers to optimize HMIS implementation and enhance hospital efficiency in Indonesia.
