<![CDATA[Boiler combustion efficiency is one of the important factors affecting the performance and operational reliability of steam power plants. One of the parameters that significantly influences combustion efficiency is excess air, which refers to the amount of air supplied exceeding the theoretical combustion requirement. This study aims to analyze the effect of excess air on boiler combustion efficiency at PT PLN Nusantara Power Paiton Unit 9. The research method used is a descriptive quantitative approach through field observations and operational data analysis obtained from the Distributed Control System (DCS). The analyzed parameters include oxygen content (O₂), excess air, boiler load, flue gas temperature, air flow, fuel flow, heat loss, and combustion efficiency. The results show that increasing excess air causes higher heat loss due to the increasing amount of heat carried away by flue gas, resulting in decreased boiler combustion efficiency. At low boiler loads, excess air tends to increase because the combustion process becomes less stable and requires additional air to maintain flame stability. Meanwhile, optimal excess air conditions provide more stable combustion, lower heat loss, and higher combustion efficiency. Therefore, controlling excess air properly is essential to maintain optimal boiler performance, improve operational efficiency, and reduce energy losses in the power generation system.]]>

<![CDATA[Obesity is a growing nutritional problem, including in Indonesia. The habit of consuming high-calorie, low-fiber foods such as noodles contributes to the risk of obesity. Corn silk, often considered waste, is rich in fiber, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, beta-carotene, and other vitamins that are beneficial to health. Corn silk is produced in abundance; specifically, for every 5 tons of corn, 3.5% consists of corn silk. The potential for utilizing this byproduct can be combined with inulin flour, which is high in fiber content and has prebiotic properties. This study aims to determine the effect of substituting corn silk flour and inulin flour on the acceptability of crispy noodle products. The research design used was a pure experimental design with a completely randomized design (CRD), consisting of 3 formulations: one control formulation (F0) and two modified formulations (F1, F2). The panelists were 30 adults aged 18 years and older. The acceptability test results showed that the modified formula most preferred by the panelists was F1. There were significant differences in color, taste, texture, and aftertaste characteristics (p ≤ 0.05). Thus, the substitution of corn silk flour and inulin flour in crispy noodle products is still sensorially acceptable, with F1 as the best modified treatment formula.]]>

<![CDATA[Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a progressive chronic disease that may damage the function of kidneys and affect the stability of fluids and electrolytes in our body that will impact on our body’s system. A usual alternative therapy that has been done to CKD’s patients is Hemodialysis (HD). Inter-Dialytic Weight Gain (IDWG) is an increase in volume which is manifested by an increase in body weight as a basis for discovering the amount of incoming fluids within interdialytic process. IDWG and changes in post dialysis blood pressure are closely related to each other because in hemodialysis process, there is a diffusion exchange of dialysis fluids and dirty fluids in patient’s body so that it may provide clinical manifestations of blood pressures’ changes after hemodialysis process. To discover the relationship between Inter-Dialytic Weight Gain (IDWG) and the changes in post dialysis blood pressure among hemodialysis patients at Prof. Dr. Margono Soekarjo Regional Public Hospital. This research is an analytic observational research and using cross sectional approach. Sampling method with purposive sampling by the amount of 41 patients, and then the results were analyzed for its significance by using Somers’D test. The result of Somers’D test to discover the significance between variables were resulting in p value = 0,000(p<0,05) dan r = 0,746 for the relationship between IDWG and Changes in Post Dialysis Blood Pressure. There is a relationship between Inter-Dialytic Weight Gain and changes in post dialysis blood pressure among hemodialysis patients at Prof. Dr. Margono Soekarjo Regional Public Hospital, Purwokerto.]]>

<![CDATA[Logistics management activities in hospitals have complex work characteristics and often involve intensive physical workloads. This study aims to identify potential ergonomic hazards, analyze risk levels, and formulate risk control recommendations for manual material handling (MMH) activities at the Medical Devices Warehouse Installation of RSUD Pelabuhan Ratu. The implementation methods utilized during this residency included direct field observations and structured interviews with warehouse staff. The root cause analysis was qualitatively conducted using a fishbone diagram with 4M+1E parameters (man, method, material, machine, environment) , followed by problem prioritization using the USG (Urgency, Seriousness, Growth) method and intervention strategy formulation through SWOT analysis. The assessment findings revealed significant potential ergonomic risks due to piles of large and heavy medical equipment being handled manually without mechanical lifting equipment (such as forklifts or hand stackers). Limitations in narrow storage spaces, the absence of OSH (Occupational Safety and Health) signages, and the lack of a specific recording system for musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) further aggravated the risk level. Based on the USG matrix, the most urgent primary issues are the high intensity of manual heavy lifting and the low awareness among employees regarding proper ergonomic working postures. The SWOT analysis positioned the organization in Quadrant I (Aggressive Strategy). Consequently, the SO (Strength-Opportunity) strategy is recommended to optimize management support by developing an integrated manual handling system with the hospital's OSH programs, conducting regular training and socialization on proper lifting techniques, installing educational OSH signs, and strengthening progressive supervision and evaluation to minimize musculoskeletal injuries among warehouse workers.]]>

<![CDATA[Diabetic retinopathy (DR) remains one of the leading causes of vision impairment and blindness among working-age adults worldwide. The introduction of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy has significantly transformed the management of DR by effectively reducing retinal vascular permeability, inhibiting neovascularization, and improving visual outcomes. This article reviews the evolving role of anti-VEGF agents in the treatment of diabetic retinopathy, highlighting current clinical evidence regarding their efficacy, safety, and comparative performance. Particular attention is given to durability strategies designed to reduce treatment burden, including treat-and-extend regimens, high-dose formulations, sustained-release delivery systems, and emerging long-acting therapeutic approaches. The review also discusses the limitations of existing therapies, such as the need for frequent intravitreal injections, patient adherence challenges, and variability in treatment response. Furthermore, future directions are explored, including novel molecular targets, gene-based therapies, combination treatments, and advancements in personalized medicine supported by artificial intelligence and predictive biomarkers. The findings indicate that while anti-VEGF therapy remains the cornerstone of contemporary diabetic retinopathy management, ongoing innovations aimed at enhancing treatment durability and individualized care have the potential to improve long-term outcomes and reduce the global burden of diabetic eye disease.]]>

<![CDATA[Effective Enterprise Architecture (EA) practices require a framework that not only defines the architecture technically, but also integrates governance, IT asset management, IT services, and architect competencies into a structured ecosystem. This study proposes a TOGAF-based Enterprise Architecture Target Operating Model (TOM) linked to COBIT as an IT governance framework. The developed TOM encompasses five main dimensions: (1) the purpose of developing an architecture aligned with organizational strategy, (2) a comprehensive architectural landscape encompassing business, application, data, and technology domains, (3) the role and competencies of enterprise architects, (4) the role of the architecture board/committee in providing strategic direction, and (5) the linkage of the architecture cycle with the organizational budgeting cycle. Alignment between TOGAF and COBIT is built through mapping enterprise goals, alignment goals, and IT goals into EA processes, so that EA capabilities become measurable and auditable. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a systematic literature review and framework analysis. The results of the study show that the integration of TOGAF-COBIT in TOM EA is able to increase the effectiveness of EA practices, ensure that the resulting architecture is aligned with the organization's strategic objectives, and strengthen overall IT governance.]]>
