Surgical procedures cause pain, as an unpleasant emotional and sensory experience caused by tissue damage. Traditional Lampung music therapy is a non-pharmacological strategy with the advantage that when the patient reaches full relaxation the perception of pain is reduced, so traditional music therapy (distraction) is very effective when used to treat pain in post-operative patients. The research aims to determine the effect of traditional Lampung music therapy on pain intensity in post-mammary ca surgery patients. This one group pre post test research design was without a comparison group (control) with a sample of 18 respondents. Data on the pain scale felt by respondents before being given traditional Lampung music therapy was moderate pain scale for 15 respondents (83.3%), severe pain scale for 3 respondents (16.7%). After being given treatment, the pain intensity became mild pain scale for 11 respondents (61.1%) and moderate pain scale for 7 respondents (38.9%). The conclusion is that there is a significant influence between traditional Lampung music therapy on pain intensity in post-mammary ca surgery patients, p value = 0.000. Patients can independently use this technique at home to reduce pain after surgery.

Root canal treatment is an action carried out by removing pulp tissue, both vital and necrotic from the root canal, followed by filling using materials that are suitable for the purpose of cleaning the root canal from necrotic tissue and microorganisms from the root canal. In this case, the final restoration used is a porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crown supported by a fiber core and pegs that can increase resistance to fracture in the tooth after endodontic treatment. A 39-year-old man complained of hollowed left upper back teeth. The patient said that the complaint was felt since 3 years ago in the upper left tooth, there was no pain until the time of examination, food was often tucked and the patient had never done treatment on the tooth. The treatment plan to be carried out is root canal treatment with restoration of the crown of the jacket with fiber pegs in the root canal in the case of tooth pulp necrosis 25 with lacerated roots. The three main stages in root canal treatment are known as the endodontic triad, namely biomechanical preparation, sterilization, and hermetic root canal obturation. The purpose of root canal treatment is to eliminate pathogenic microorganisms and infected pulp tissue from within the root canal, prevent the formation of toxic products, as well as protect periapical tissue.

The success of a construction project is influenced by the management of three main components: cost, time, and quality. Time control is an important aspect so that project implementation can run according to the planned schedule. This study aims to evaluate the time performance of the Drainage Channel Rehabilitation Project in Ngronggo Village, Kediri City using the Earned Value method. The Earned Value method is used to analyze project performance by comparing the planned schedule with the work progress that has been achieved during project implementation. The parameters used in this study include the Budgeted Cost of Work Scheduled (BCWS), Budgeted Cost of Work Performed (BCWP), Schedule Variance (SV), and Schedule Performance Index (SPI). The results of the analysis show that the Schedule Variance (SV) value is negative, indicating that the project implementation has been delayed compared to the planned schedule. In addition, the Schedule Performance Index (SPI) value obtained is less than 1 (SPI <1), indicating that the project's time performance is running poorly. Based on the analysis of the estimated project completion time usingEstimate to Completion(ETC) and Estimate At Completion (EAC), the estimated project completion time is 16 weeks, while the project's planned duration is 13 weeks. Therefore, it can be concluded that the project is 3 weeks behind schedule.

Primary dysmenorrhea is a gynecological complaint frequently experienced by adolescent girls and can disrupt their learning activities and quality of life. One non-pharmacological therapy that is developing in the community is the consumption of turmeric and tamarind drinks (sinom), which contain natural anti-inflammatory and analgesic compounds. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of turmeric and tamarind drinks (sinom) on reducing the intensity of primary dysmenorrhea pain in adolescent girls at SMAN 1 Krucil. The study used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. The study sample consisted of 41 respondents selected using a purposive sampling technique according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Pain intensity was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), then analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. The results showed that before the intervention, the majority of respondents experienced moderate pain (63.4%) and severe pain (19.5%). After administration of sinom, the majority of respondents were in the mild pain category (56.1%), and the proportion of severe pain decreased to 7.3%. The Wilcoxon test showed a Z value of -5.165 with a p-value <0.001, indicating a significant decrease in primary dysmenorrhea pain intensity after administration of the turmeric and tamarind drink (sinom). These findings indicate that sinom is effective as an alternative non-pharmacological therapy in reducing primary dysmenorrhea pain in adolescent girls and has the potential to be developed as a locally-based health intervention that is easily accessible and safe to use.

This literature review discusses the role of chlorhexidine as an antiseptic in dentistry, where it is still regarded as the gold standard for use. Chlorhexidine is a cationic bisbiguanide compound with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It acts by interacting with the microbial cell membrane, producing a bacteriostatic effect at low concentrations and a bactericidal effect at higher concentrations. In clinical practice, chlorhexidine is available in various formulations, including mouthwash (0,12-0,2%), gel (0,12-1%), 2% irrigating solution, and higher-concentration varnish, which are selected according to therapeutic needs. Its applications include caries control through the reduction of Streptococcus mutans, periodontal therapy as an adjunct to scaling and root planing, support in endodontic treatment as an alternative irrigant, and post-surgical care to reduce the risk of complications such as alveolar osteitis. Chlorhexidine has been proven effective, its use should be limited due to potential side effects, including tooth staining, taste alteration, and xerostomia; therefore, it is recommended as an adjunctive therapy based on specific clinical indications.

Hypertension is a non-communicable disease that is one of the main health problems in South Minahasa Regency. Unhealthy diet and lack of physical activity are risk factors that can increase the incidence of hypertension in the community. This study aims to determine the relationship between diet and physical activity and the incidence of hypertension in the community in Tenga Village. This study uses a quantitative method with a Cross-Sectional design. The research sample amounted to 120 respondents who were people who had conducted examinations at the Tenga Health Center. Data was collected using the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) questionnaire for diet and the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ) for physical activity, as well as blood pressure data from the Health Center. Data analysis used Chi-Square test and multivariate analysis. The results showed that the majority of respondents were female as many as 92 people (76.7%) and ≥50 years old as many as 83 people (69.2%). A total of 99 respondents (82.5%) had hypertension, 96 respondents (80.0%) had a hypertension-triggering diet, and 97 respondents (80.8%) had mild physical activity. The results of the Chi-Square test showed that there was a significant relationship between diet and the incidence of hypertension with a value of p=0.022 and there was a significant relationship between physical activity and the incidence of hypertension with a value of p=0.034. However, the results of the multivariate analysis showed that diet (p=0.118) and physical activity (p=0.162) did not have a significant relationship simultaneously with the incidence of hypertension. The conclusion of this study shows that there is a relationship between diet and physical activity and the incidence of hypertension in the community in Tenga Village based on bivariate analysis. Therefore, the community is expected to maintain a healthy diet and increase physical activity as an effort to prevent and control hypertension.
