Abstract

The total expenditure on medical devices in 2016 was IDR 16.9 trillion from the total health budget in Indonesia. The main problems were the accessibility and quality of medical devices. Good logistics management of medical devices at the Public Health Center (PHC) will affect the quality and financing of health services. This research to find out logistics management of medical devices in Palu City Health Office. The method used Qualitative with case studies. In January-March 2017 in Palu City Health Office. The primary data was obtained through observation, in-depth interviews, and document review. The finding in this research are Palu City Health Office conducted bottom-up planning. However, the allocated budget was limited. Sources of funds were taken from the state budget (APBN) and local government budget (APBD). There was an involvement of official institutions and partners in the procurement of devices. The method of procurement was a tender and direct appointment that referred to e-catalog. But, the items would be available after a long wait. Misunderstanding of information occurred when distributing medical devices in the PHC. There was no special warehouse that was suitable for storing medical devices. The control process in the form of recording and reporting was experiencing errors. Logistics management of health device has not been carried out effectively and efficiently. Thus, it’s necessary to improve optimal coordination and commitment in logistics management of medical devices. This study aligns with SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being), particularly Target 3.8 on universal health coverage and Target 3.b on access to quality health technologies. Findings also connect to SDG 9 (resilient health infrastructure) and SDG 12 (efficient resource use). Although data were collected in 2017, the structural challenges identified remain pertinent to ongoing health system strengthening in Indonesia and comparable settings.

Abstract

Adolescent maternal healthcare remains a critical challenge in many health systems, particularly in ensuring effective service delivery amid complex administrative and policy environments. This study aims to examine the influence of institutional alignment and policy gaps on service delivery performance from a health administration perspective. A quantitative approach was employed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS) with data collected from 215 healthcare professionals, including midwives, nurses, physicians, and healthcare administrators. The measurement model evaluation confirmed satisfactory validity and reliability, with all constructs meeting the required thresholds. The structural model results revealed that institutional alignment has a significant positive effect on service delivery performance (β = 0.45, p < 0.001), while policy gaps have a significant negative effect (β = −0.38, p < 0.001). Additionally, institutional alignment significantly reduces policy gaps (β = −0.52, p < 0.001), indicating a mediating relationship. The model explains 62% of the variance in service delivery performance (R² = 0.62), demonstrating substantial explanatory power. These findings indicate that improving healthcare performance requires not only strong institutional alignment but also the reduction of policy implementation gaps. This study highlights the importance of an integrated governance approach to enhance the effectiveness, accessibility, and quality of adolescent maternal healthcare services.

Abstract

The transition toward sustainable and circular bioeconomies requires environmentally benign and resource-efficient routes for producing value-added chemicals from renewable feedstocks. This study presents a rapid and novel approach for synthesising methyl butanoate via a barium chloride-catalyzed thermal hydrolytic process using Gmelina arborea leaf biomass as a low-cost lignocellulosic resource. Unlike conventional esterification methods that depend on refined substrates, corrosive catalysts, and extended reaction times, this process operates under mild conditions (80 °C, atmospheric pressure) with short reaction durations (10–50 minutes). Results show that the highest methyl butanoate yield (≈13.52% and ~900 mg/g) is achieved at 10 minutes, demonstrating good reproducibility (RSD ≈ 6%). ANOVA confirms that reaction time significantly influences yield (p < 0.05), with longer durations reducing performance due to competing reactions and equilibrium constraints. Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry (GC–MS) analysis validates ester formation and composition. This work addresses a key research gap by enabling direct conversion of waste biomass into short-chain esters through a simple, rapid, and energy-efficient pathway. The approach aligns with Sustainable Development Goals: SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy) through biofuel development, SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure) via process innovation, SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production) through biomass valorization, and SDG 13 (Climate Action) by promoting low-carbon processes. Overall, the study establishes a sustainable alternative for ester production with reduced environmental impact and operational complexity.

Abstract

This study explores the role of quizzes in shaping students’ learning behavior, with a particular focus on learning habits, autonomy, and assessment dependency in higher education. While quizzes are widely recognized as effective formative assessment tools, their influence on students’ learning processes remains underexplored. This study contributes to the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4, particularly SDG 4.4, SDG 4.7, and SDG 4.a, by promoting autonomous and supportive learning environments. It employed a qualitative research design using semi-structured interviews with 38 students at Universitas Negeri Makassar who experienced regular quiz implementation in their courses. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify patterns in students’ perceptions and behaviors. The findings reveal that quizzes shape students’ learning behavior in four interconnected ways. First, quizzes promote structured learning habits by encouraging students to study in a time-bound and assessment-oriented manner. Second, quizzes foster assessment dependency, where students’ engagement is strongly tied to the presence of evaluation. Third, a tension emerges between external control and learning autonomy, as students feel compelled to study due to quizzes rather than personal motivation. Finally, quizzes contribute to academic pressure and cognitive load, particularly when combined with other academic demands. Overall, this study highlights the dual role of quizzes as both supportive and controlling learning tools. While they can enhance engagement and discipline, over-reliance on quizzes may limit the development of autonomous and self-regulated learning. Therefore, assessment practices should adopt a more balanced and autonomy-supportive approach to promote sustainable learning in higher education.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between discourse, financial policy, and economic justice in Indonesia through a critical analysis of the narrative surrounding credit restructuring as presented in the president’s speeches. Using a Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) approach, this study aims to reveal how language is used to construct, legitimize, and critique economic policies related to credit access for various social groups, particularly large business owners and marginalized groups such as fishermen. The research data consists of speech acts in the president’s public addresses, analyzed based on rhetorical strategies, lexical choices, and implicit meanings that reflect power relations and ideological positions. The findings indicate that this discourse simultaneously critiques the privileges of the economic elite while constructing a narrative of financial policy that is more inclusive for underrepresented groups. Furthermore, linguistic strategies such as irony, repetition, and contrast play a crucial role in reinforcing messages of economic justice and policy reform. This study contributes to interdisciplinary research by integrating linguistic analysis with economic policy discourse, and offers insights into the role of language in shaping public perceptions of financial inclusion and equitable growth. This study is also relevant to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 10.3 on reducing inequalities of outcome and ensuring equal opportunities in access to economic resources, as well as SDG 16.6 concerning the development of effective, accountable, and transparent institutions. Through the analysis of financial policy discourse, this study highlights how political language constructs narratives of economic justice, financial inclusion, and institutional responsibility in addressing unequal access to credit in Indonesia.

Abstract

. E-cigarette use is a growing trend among students and has attracted attention due to its health impacts. This behavior is influenced not only by individual factors but also by social factors, particularly peer groups, including social interactions, peer habits, and group solidarity. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between social interactions, peer habits, and group solidarity with e-cigarette use among students at the Faculty of Sport and Health Sciences, Universitas Negeri Makassar (FIKK UNM). The research method used was a quantitative study with an observational analytical design using a cross-sectional study approach. The population in this study was all 1,446 students from the 2023 intake of FIKK UNM, with a sample size of 330 respondents obtained using the Slovin formula. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using the chi-square test in SPSS. The results showed that the majority of respondents (199 respondents (60.3%) did not use e-cigarettes, while 131 (39.7%) did use e-cigarettes. The results of the bivariate analysis showed a relationship between social interaction and e-cigarette use (p = 0.001), a relationship between peer habits and e-cigarette use (p = 0.001), and a relationship between group solidarity and e-cigarette use (p = 0.001). The conclusion of this study indicates that peers play a significant role in e-cigarette use in students. This influence occurs through social interaction, similar processes to friends' habits, and the drive to maintain group solidarity. Therefore, prevention efforts are needed that focus not only on the individual but also on the student's social environment. These findings contribute to the achievement of SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-Being) and SDG 4 (Quality Education) by highlighting the importance of community-based interventions within academic institutions to promote healthier behaviors among the younger generation.

Abstract

Burnout syndrome is a condition characterized by physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion resulting from prolonged work-related stress, which may negatively affect the quality of nursing care services. Nurses, as healthcare professionals with high work intensity, are particularly vulnerable to burnout due to complex and continuous job demands. This study aimed to describe the prevalence of burnout syndrome among nurses at Baubau Regional General Hospital and to support occupational mental health promotion in line with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 3.4, 3.c, and 8.8. A quantitative study with a cross-sectional descriptive design was conducted involving 146 nurses selected through simple random sampling. Data were collected using the 22-item Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS), which measures three dimensions of burnout: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment. The results showed that most respondents had low levels of emotional exhaustion (93.8%) and depersonalization (64.4%), while the majority demonstrated high levels of personal accomplishment (63.0%). These findings indicate that most nurses at Baubau Regional General Hospital had not experienced severe burnout syndrome and generally maintained a relatively good psychological work condition. Nevertheless, several respondents demonstrated moderate to high levels of depersonalization and emotional exhaustion, which require attention. Therefore, burnout prevention efforts are needed through effective workload management, psychosocial support, and strengthening occupational health programs for nurses.

Bivariate analysis revealed a significant relationship between social interaction and e-cigarette use (p = 0.001), peer habits and e-cigarette use (p = 0.001), and group solidarity and e-cigarette use (p = 0.001). Peers play a significant role in e-cigarette use among students through social interaction, imitation of peers' habits, and the drive to maintain group solidarity. Prevention efforts should therefore target not only individuals but also the broader student social environment. These findings are relevant to SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being), as addressing e-cigarette use among young people is essential to ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all ages.

Abstract

Nutritional status among university students is influenced by various factors, including nutrition knowledge and dietary quality. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between nutrition knowledge, Healthy Eating Index (HEI), and nutritional status based on BMI categories among university students. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 88 university students. Nutrition knowledge was assessed using a structured questionnaire, dietary quality was evaluated using the Healthy Eating Index (HEI), and nutritional status was determined based on BMI categories. Data were analyzed using Chi-square tests to examine the associations between variables. The results showed that no significant association was found between nutrition knowledge and BMI status (p = 0.893). In contrast, HEI was significantly associated with BMI categories (p < 0.001). The distribution pattern showed that underweight respondents were predominantly classified as having poor HEI (82.5%), respondents with normal BMI had a relatively balanced distribution with many showing good HEI (53.5%), and overweight respondents also showed a high proportion of good HEI (80%). These findings suggest that although HEI is associated with BMI categories, higher HEI does not exclusively correspond to normal BMI In conclusion, nutrition knowledge was not associated with BMI status, while HEI was significantly associated with BMI categories, indicating that nutritional status is influenced by multiple factors beyond nutrition knowledge and diet quality alone.

Abstract

Urban home gardens play an important role in supporting biodiversity conservation within urban landscapes. However, information on the floristic composition and vegetation structure of urban home gardens in Indonesian cities remains limited. This study assessed plant diversity, vegetation structure, and alpha diversity of urban home gardens in Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Field surveys were conducted in 24 home gardens selected using purposive sampling. All plant species were identified and classified into lower, middle, and upper vegetation strata. Species richness, family composition, and diversity indices were subsequently analyzed. A total of 190 plant species belonging to 65 families and 2,527 individuals were recorded. Araceae and Asparagaceae were the most species-rich families. The middle stratum contained the highest proportion of species (42.1%), followed by the upper (29.5%) and lower strata (28.4%). Mean species richness was 12.8 ± 3.6 species per garden, while Shannon–Wiener diversity, Simpson diversity, and evenness indices were 2.0 ± 0.49, 0.80 ± 0.13, and 0.60 ± 0.18, respectively. These findings demonstrate that urban home gardens in Makassar maintain considerable plant diversity and a multi-layered vegetation structure despite ongoing urbanization. Urban home gardens therefore represent important components of urban green infrastructure and biodiversity conservation.
