<![CDATA[According to the Central Statistics Agency for 2021, this year's banana harvest reached 2.39 million tons. Banana tree trunk waste has been thrown away, but it turns out it has the potential to be used as a cosmetic product. If you want to achieve the desired effect from a preparation, you must use the right formulation. The aim of this research is to obtain a cream preparation formula containing jackfruit banana tree stem extract that is safe, effective and stable. The research method used was an experimental method. Making the extract used the maceration method with 70% ethanol solvent. The cream preparation formula is made from jackfruit banana tree trunk extract, namely formulas 1, 2 and 3, the formula process uses the method of melting and mixing the ingredients and active substances. An evaluation was carried out on the cream preparation and its stability was tested, including observing homogeneity, measuring pH, organoleptics, testing the type of emulsion, testing the stickiness of the cream and testing the spreadability. In the physical evaluation, creams F0, F1, F2 and F3 meet the physical stability requirements. Meanwhile, the stability test for F1 and F2 creams was unstable after 1 month of storage. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that jackfruit banana tree stem extract can be formulated into a cream preparation.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the performance of the Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) in reducing particulate concentration and exhaust gas emissions in the nickel processing process using the Rotary Kiln Electric Furnace (RKEF) system. The main variable observed was the variation of ESP electrode voltage at 20 kV, 30 kV, 40 kV, 50 kV, and 60 kV. The parameters measured included particulate concentrations before and after the ESP unit, as well as exhaust gas components consisting of sulfur dioxide (SO₂), nitrogen oxides (NOₓ), and carbon monoxide (CO). The results show that an increase in ESP voltage has a significant effect on improving particle collection efficiency. The highest efficiency was achieved at a voltage of 50 kV, reaching 94.94%, with particulate concentration decreasing from 158 mg/Nm³ to 8 mg/Nm³. However, at 60 kV the efficiency slightly decreased to 92.36% due to electrical field instability (spark discharge). In addition, exhaust gas concentrations also declined with increasing voltage, with the lowest values recorded at 50 kV: SO₂ at 405 mg/Nm³, NOₓ at 250 mg/Nm³, and CO at 100 mg/Nm³. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that the Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) operates most optimally at a voltage of 50 kV, under operating conditions of approximately 135 °C gas temperature, 8–9% humidity, and dust resistivity ranging from 10¹⁰ to 10¹¹ Ω·cm. The ESP system has proven effective in reducing particulate emissions and maintaining exhaust gas concentrations below the emission quality standards stipulated in Regulation of the Minister of Environment and Forestry of Indonesia No. P.15/MENLHK/SETJEN/KUM.1/4/2019.]]>

<![CDATA[Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death globally, with increasingly high treatment costs, particularly for targeted therapy and immunotherapy. In resource-limited healthcare systems such as Indonesia, cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) is essential for determining efficient therapeutic options. This study aims to evaluate scientific evidence regarding the cost-effectiveness of targeted therapy and immunotherapy compared with conventional chemotherapy in cancer patients. The study employed a systematic literature review approach based on the PICO framework and PRISMA guidelines. Literature was obtained from Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect databases, including articles published between 2015 and 2025, written in English, and available in full-text open access. Five original research articles that met the inclusion criteria were analyzed narratively. The findings indicate that not all advanced therapies are economically efficient compared with conventional chemotherapy. Tislelizumab as monotherapy was found to be more cost-effective than combination therapy for liver cancer. In HER2-positive breast cancer, the TCH regimen was more cost-efficient than AC-TH. Additionally, local immunotherapies such as sintilimab and toripalimab demonstrated lower ICER values compared with global therapies in several developing countries. In conclusion, therapies that are clinically effective are not always economically efficient. Therefore, integrating pharmacoeconomic considerations is important in cancer treatment decision-making within healthcare services.]]>

<![CDATA[Cardiorespiratory fitness or VO2 max is an important component in supporting the performance of rugby athletes who require high endurance, but nutritional imbalances are still often found among athletes. This study aims to analyze the relationship between macro nutrient intake and iron intake with physical fitness (cardiorespiratory) among athletes of the Surabaya State University Rugby Club. This study used a quantitative cross-sectional design involving 33 athletes. Macronutrient intake was obtained through a 2x24-hour food recall, iron intake was measured using the Iron-Semi Quantitaive Food Frequency Questionnaire (Iron-SQFFQ), and physical fitness was measured using the Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test Level 1 (YYIRT1). The average energy intake of athletes was 2040 ± 457.9 kcal/day, protein 88.3 ± 15.9 g/day, fat 78.2 ± 15.4 g/day, and carbohydrate intake 248.4 ± 75.8 g/day. The average iron intake was 13.7 ± 5.05 mg/day, with most athletes falling into the good category (81.8%). The average VO2 max value of the athletes was 45.0 ± 4.63 ml/kgBW/minute, with the dominant category being sufficient to very good. Data analysis used Spearman's rank correlation test. The correlation test results showed that energy intake (p= 0.008; r=0.451), fat intake (p= 0.004; r= 0.488), and iron intake (p= 0.008; r=0.451) were significantly related significantly with physical fitness, while protein intake (p= 0.133; r=0.267) and carbohydrate intake (p= 0.801; r=0.046) did not show a significant relationship. It was concluded that adequate energy, fat, and iron intake are related to the cardiorespiratory fitness of rugby athletes.]]>

<![CDATA[Photobiomodulation Therapy (PBMT) has emerged as a promising non‑invasive adjunct to accelerate soft tissue healing and improve aesthetic outcomes in cosmetic dental procedures. However, clinical evidence remains heterogeneous, with inconsistent laser parameters and limited comparative data on aesthetic endpoints. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of PBMT in enhancing soft tissue healing and aesthetic outcomes relative to conventional methods in aesthetic dentistry. It employed a systematic review design following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, using a PICOS framework to search SpringerLink, ScienceDirect, and PubMed for English‑language articles (2020–2025) involving human or animal studies on PBMT and oral soft tissue aesthetics. Seven studies met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed using narrative synthesis without meta‑analysis due to high heterogeneity. Inclusion criteria specified open‑access full‑text articles on gingival contouring, implant surgery, soft tissue grafting, and related procedures, with outcome data on epithelialization, angiogenesis, pain, patient satisfaction, color, and texture. Quality assessment was performed using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal Tools. The results show that PBMT consistently improves epithelialization, reduces postoperative pain, enhances tissue color and texture, and increases patient satisfaction, while minimizing hypertrophic scar risk. In conclusion, PBMT accelerates soft tissue healing and aesthetic recovery, though parameter standardization is needed.]]>

<![CDATA[The Lung Immune Prognostic Index (LIPI), based on the derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (dNLR) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels, has been recognized as an important prognostic biomarker in lung cancer. However, its prognostic value in patients with non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has not been extensively discussed. Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to comprehensively evaluate the association between LIPI and survival outcomes in patients with advanced-stage NSCLC receiving immunotherapy. Systematic literature search was conducted across PubMed, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, SSRN, Epistemonikos, and Google Scholar databases up to January 10, 2025. Study quality was assessed using the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale (NOS). Data were extracted for qualitative and quantitative synthesis, including pooled analyses and subgroup analyses. Random-effects models were applied to pool hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) to assess the association between LIPI and progression-free survival (PFS) and/or overall survival (OS) in patients with advanced NSCLC treated with immunotherapy. A total of 7,551 patients from 13 studies were included in the analysis. Pooled analysis demonstrated that patients with poor or intermediate LIPI scores, compared with those with good LIPI scores, had significantly shorter PFS (HR = 2.20, 95% CI: 1.83–2.63, P < 0.001; HR = 1.47, 95% CI: 1.31–1.65, P < 0.001) and worse OS (HR = 3.31, 95% CI: 2.70–4.06, P < 0.001; HR = 1.88, 95% CI: 1.58–2.23, P < 0.001). Subgroup analyses based on immunotherapy type (monotherapy versus combination therapy) yielded consistent results. This study demonstrates that poor and intermediate LIPI scores are significantly associated with worse prognosis in patients with advanced-stage NSCLC receiving immunotherapy. Therefore, LIPI may serve as a promising non-invasive prognostic biomarker for predicting survival outcomes in this patient population. Keywords: lung immune prognostic index, LIPI, non–small cell lung cancer, immunotherapy.]]>

<![CDATA[Antenatal care (ANC) is a key maternal health service that supports monitoring of maternal and fetal conditions, early detection of complications, health education, and preparation for safe delivery. The third trimester is a critical period because the need for monitoring increases near childbirth. This study aimed to describe the knowledge of public health students regarding ANC services for third-trimester pregnant women. A quantitative descriptive study with a cross-sectional approach was conducted at Universitas Jambi from February to March 2026. A total of 100 public health students were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using a validated 17-item questionnaire covering ANC definition, aims and benefits, visit frequency, service components, and danger signs. The instrument showed acceptable reliability with Cronbach's Alpha of 0.724. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis. Most respondents had good knowledge (65.0%), followed by moderate knowledge (31.0%) and poor knowledge (4.0%). The highest correct responses were found in aims and benefits, while the lowest were related to visit frequency. Strengthening technical and applied learning is needed to improve student competence.]]>

<![CDATA[This study examines students' knowledge of basic immunization for infants, a crucial issue given the high infant and toddler mortality rate due to vaccine-preventable diseases. The research method used was quantitative with a cross-sectional approach. The sample size of this study was 42 students who met the inclusion criteria, with the majority of respondents being female (90.5%), 19 years old (59.5%), and in their fourth semester (85.7%). The results showed that the majority of respondents (95.2%) had received information about basic immunization for infants, with the main sources of information coming from college/academics (26.2%) and family/friends (23.8%). The level of knowledge of respondents regarding basic immunization for infants was mostly in the good category (71.4%), although a small number had insufficient knowledge (28.6%). This good level of knowledge is important for increasing awareness and coverage of immunization. Therefore, it is important to continue educating students so that they can contribute to efforts to improve public health, especially regarding infant immunization]]>
