Abstract

The growing public interest in skincare products has coincided with an increase in the use of skin-lightening creams. However, hydroquinone an ingredient banned in cosmetics due to its potential to cause side effects such as ochronosis, dermatitis, and other skin disorders is still found in some skin-lightening creams. Therefore, analysis of hydroquinone content is necessary to ensure product safety in accordance with BPOM regulations. To determine the hydroquinone content and concentration of skin-lightening creams available in Kuala Kurun City, Gunung Mas Regency, and to assess whether these levels comply with the limits set by BPOM. This study was an observational analysis using UV-Vis spectrophotometry. Qualitative analysis was measured based on the maximum wavelength of compound absorption to confirm the presence of samples, while quantitative analysis was measured based on light absorption intensity (absorbance) proportional to the concentration of hydroquinone compounds in the samples using a calibration curve. The results of the study of facial whitening creams circulating in Kuala Kurun City, Gunung Mas Regency, found hydroquinone in all five samples, with concentrations of 0.334% in sample A, 0.392% in sample B, sample C at 1.902%, sample D at 1.920%, and sample E at 2.553%. Hydroquinone was detected in all samples of skin-lightening creams, with concentrations ranging from 0.334% to 2.553%. This violates BPOM regulations, as hydroquinone is prohibited in cosmetics and is permitted only at a maximum concentration of 0.02% in artificial nails; therefore, these products do not meet cosmetic safety requirements.

Abstract

Indonesia, as the world’s largest palm oil producer, generates significant amounts of biomass waste, including palm kernel shells that remain underutilized. This study aims to develop eco-friendly activated carbon from palm kernel shell waste through carbonization and chemical activation using NaCl and ZnCl₂, and to evaluate its performance in Crude Palm Oil (CPO) purification. Carbonization was conducted at high temperatures under limited oxygen conditions, followed by chemical activation to enhance surface area and pore structure. The resulting materials were characterized using SEM, FTIR, XRD, and XRF to determine morphology, functional groups, crystal structure, and elemental composition. The adsorption performance was evaluated based on the reduction of free fatty acids, peroxide value, saponification value, and moisture content in CPO. The results indicate that ZnCl₂ activation produces a more developed pore structure and higher adsorption capacity compared to NaCl. This study demonstrates that palm kernel shell waste can be effectively utilized as a low-cost, sustainable, and environmentally friendly adsorbent, contributing to improved CPO quality and supporting circular economy practices in the palm oil industry.

Abstract

Airway management during cesarean section (CS) under general anesthesia carries risks of complications such as aspiration, hypoxemia, and hemodynamic responses resulting from airway manipulation. Second-generation supraglottic airway devices (SADs), such as the LMA Supreme, have been developed as an alternative to endotracheal tubes (ETTs). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of second-generation SAD compared to ETT in SC under general anesthesia. This study employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. The literature search was conducted in the PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases, covering the years 2015–2025. The included studies comprised Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs), cohort studies, and retrospective studies evaluating the use of SAD in SC. Quality assessment was performed using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) instrument. A total of 8 studies met the inclusion criteria. The results showed that second-generation SADs had high insertion success rates, adequate ventilation, and maternal and neonatal outcomes comparable to those of ETT. No significant increase in aspiration, hypoxemia, or airway complications was observed. Supraglottic Airway Devices (SADs) demonstrated more stable hemodynamic responses and faster insertion times. Second-generation supraglottic airway devices (SADs) are an effective and relatively safe alternative to endotracheal intubation (ETI) in selected patients undergoing cesarean section under general anesthesia. Evidence regarding high-risk populations, particularly those with hypertension during pregnancy, remains limited.

Abstract

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem that remains high in Indonesia, including in Sumenep Regency. Stunting is caused by long-term nutritional deficiencies, recurrent infections, and micronutrient deficiencies, one of which is vitamin A. Vitamin A plays an important role in growth, immune function, and cellular metabolism. This study aimed to describe the administration of vitamin A supplementation among stunted toddlers in the working area of the Gili Genting Community Health Center, Sumenep Regency. This study used a descriptive observational method with a cross-sectional design. The study population consisted of 117 stunted toddlers based on 2024 data, and all were included as the research sample. Data collection was carried out using questionnaires and secondary data obtained from the Community Health Center. Data were analyzed descriptively. The results showed that most stunted toddlers were in the age group of 12–59 months, totaling 69 children, while those aged 6–11 months were 48 children. The highest distribution of stunted toddlers was found in Bringsang Village with 48 children. The coverage of vitamin A supplementation was still not optimal, where only 23.08% of toddlers received vitamin A capsules according to the recommended schedule of twice a year, 35.90% received it less than twice, and 41.03% never received vitamin A supplementation. The conclusion of this study indicates that the coverage of vitamin A supplementation among stunted toddlers in the working area of the Gili Genting Community Health Center is still low. Increased nutrition education for parents, strengthening of posyandu (integrated health service posts), and equitable distribution of vitamin A capsules are needed to support efforts to reduce the prevalence of stunting.

Abstract

The development of digital technology in the health sector encourages health facilities to implement Electronic Medical Records (EMR). The success of EMR implementation depends on the satisfaction of health workers as system users. Based on preliminary observations at Jimbaran I Sub-district Health Center, several obstacles were found, including limited human resources, system disruptions, and lack of IT personnel. These conditions may affect user satisfaction and service effectiveness. This study aims to determine the level of health worker satisfaction with the use of Electronic Medical Records based on the End User Computing Satisfaction (EUCS) method. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The subjects of this study were eight health workers consisting of doctors, nurses, registration officers, and midwives. The results showed that health workers were generally satisfied with the use of Electronic Medical Records in terms of content, accuracy, format, ease of use, and timeliness. However, there are still obstacles related to system adaptation and data input accuracy during busy service hours.

Abstract

Breakfast habits and physical activity are important factors in determining the nutritional status and long-term health of school-aged children. Based on preliminary data from April 2025 at Banjarbendo Elementary School in Sidoarjo, 46 ​​students (63%) had poor breakfast habits and 36 students (53%) had low levels of physical activity. Skipping breakfast can lead to an imbalance in daily energy intake, while low levels of physical activity can increase the risk of health problems and reduce children's fitness. This study aims to analyze the relationship between breakfast habits and physical activity levels and the nutritional status of sixth-grade students at Banjarbendo Elementary School. The study used a cross-sectional design with a sample size of 74 students, consisting of 47 boys and 27 girls. The independent variables in this study were breakfast habits and physical activity levels, while the dependent variable was nutritional status based on BMI/Age. Data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and anthropometric measurements. Univariate and bivariate analyses were performed using the Chi-Square test. The results of the univariate analysis showed that the majority of respondents (41 students) had good breakfast habits, while 33 students (44.6%) had poor breakfast habits. Regarding physical activity, the majority of respondents were in the low and very low categories, at 63.5% and 21.6%, respectively. The results of the bivariate analysis showed no significant relationship between breakfast habits and students' nutritional status (p-value = 0.283). However, there was a significant relationship between physical activity levels and the nutritional status of sixth-grade students at Banjarbendo Elementary School (p-value = 0.020). This research is expected to serve as a basis for developing promotive and preventive efforts in the school environment, particularly through nutrition education and the promotion of regular physical activity to support optimal student growth and health.

Abstract

This study aims to build a predictive model of student learning achievement by comparing the performance of Naive Bayes algorithm and Support Vector Machine (SVM) optimized using Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) and Grid Search. Methods used in this study include data collection, preprocessing, data sharing, application of SMOTE to handle data imbalances, as well as parameter optimization using Grid Search. Next, the model was built using Naive Bayes algorithm and SVM, then evaluated using accuracy metrics to determine the best performance. The results showed that the accuracy of Naive Bayes algorithm before SMOTE application was 71%, but decreased to 56% after SMOTE application. Meanwhile, the SVM algorithm showed stable results with an accuracy of 68% both before and after the application of SMOTE. This shows that optimization techniques do not always improve the performance of the model, depending on the characteristics of the data used. Thus, SVM models are considered more consistent, while Naive Bayes is more sensitive to data changes. The resulting Model can be used as an aid in decision-making in the field of education to more accurately identify the level of student achievement.

Abstract

Divorce cases in Indonesia increased by 15.3%, from 447,743 cases in 2021 to 516,344 cases in 2022. Banyuwangi Regency is one of the regions in East Java with a high number of divorce cases, totaling 39,245 divorce certificates. The distribution of divorce cases in Banyuwangi Regency is evenly spread across both rural and urban areas. The objective of this study is to describe the social constructions of urban and rural communities in Banyuwangi regarding family planning in relation to divorce occurrences in Banyuwangi Regency. This study employs a qualitative method with an exploratory study design to describe the social constructions of rural and urban communities regarding family planning in relation to divorce. Data were collected through interviews grounded in Peter L. Berger’s social construction theory. Data analysis was conducted thematically using the Leximancer software. The results of the study indicate that divorce cases occurring in rural and urban areas of Banyuwangi Regency exhibit different social constructions. This is evident in the dimension of motivation for marriage, where in rural areas it is based on the desire to continue the family line, whereas in urban areas it is based on love. The dimension of family resilience is evident in the differences in the division of roles in child-rearing. Divorce in urban communities is viewed as a formal separation, whereas in rural areas it is seen as a matter of incompatibility. Key factors influencing these dimensions include religion, social pressure, and patriarchal practices in both rural and urban communities in Banyuwangi Regency.
