Public health science is a series of long history of human life and the environment, where developments throughout the world are related to one another. There are historical moments in the development of public health which are the initial milestones of the current development of public health science and technology. The history of public health in developed countries has a role in the development of public health science and technology in developing countries. Along with the development of the times and health sciences, the problems in procuring drugs are becoming increasingly complicated, both because of the formulas and the way the drugs are made. Therefore, technology is needed in the manufacture and compounding of drugs, both modern and traditional medicines. Regular exercise is highly recommended by health experts, this is because exercising can help reduce the risk of contracting several types of dangerous diseases such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes, osteoporosis, and various other types of dangerous diseases.

Posteroanterior (PA) chest radiography is one of the most commonly performed radiographic procedures to evaluate the lungs and heart. Although considered a low-dose examination, repeated and uncontrolled radiation exposure may still pose risks to patient safety. Therefore, dose estimation is important to ensure that exposure techniques comply with radiation protection principles, particularly the ALARA principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).This study aims to estimate the radiation dose using the Dose Area Product (DAP) parameter and analyze the correlation between patient body weight and DAP values. A total of 260 patients undergoing PA chest radiography were included in this retrospective study. Patient characteristics such as body weight, age and sex were recorded along with exposure parameters (kV and mAs) . A normality test was performed, and due to non-normal data distribution, the Spearman correlation test and the Mann Whitney U test were used for statistical analysis. The results showed a statistically significant correlation between body weight and DAP values (ρ = 0.214, p = 0.001), indicating that patients with higher body weight tend to receive slightly higher radiation doses. No significant correlation was found between age and DAP (ρ = –0.083, p = 0.184). Additionally, the comparison of DAP values between male and female patients showed no statiscally significant difference (p = 0.051), although male patients had slightly higher median DAP values.

EWS is an early warning system that uses scoring to assess the deterioration of a patient's condition in the hospital. Nurses and students, as the implementers of nursing care, must develop their ability to understand EWS because it supports patient safety. Students' knowledge and attitudes in identifying patient deterioration can influence EWS practice, so it is necessary to explore how students' knowledge and attitudes relate to EWS practice, which is the focus of this study. The purpose of this study is to analyze the correlation between knowledge and attitudes and EWS practices. The research design is quantitative with a correlational approach. Sampling was conducted using a purposive sampling technique, where the sample consisted of 53 students who had completed emergency and critical care rotations. The research instruments consist of a demographic data questionnaire, an EWS Knowledge questionnaire, an EWS Attitude questionnaire, and an EWS Documentation Checklist. Data collection was carried out by distributing a link to complete the questionnaire thru g-form. Data analysis was performed using the Spearman and chi-square statistical tests. The research results show that the majority of respondents (52.83%) have good knowledge, the majority of respondents (71.70%) show a positive attitude, and the majority of respondents (64.15%) demonstrate appropriate practices in filling out the EWS. There is a relationship between knowledge and practice with a p-value of 0.006, and there is no relationship between attitude and EWS practice. The Sig. (2-tailed) value is 0.330.

The children period is known as the golden age of development because at this stage there is an acceleration of physical and mental growth. However, at the same time, children are also an age group that is very vulnerable to various health problems, one of which is prone to nutritional disorders, especially nutritional problems in children, such as stunting. This study aims to look at the determinants of stunting in Majalaya, Bandung using a case control study design. The selection of respondents used random sampling techniques. The case group consists of 15 children aged 24 to 59 months who have stunted status in Padaulun Village in March 2025. The control group is 45 children aged 24 to 59 months who are not stunted in Padaulun Village in March 2025. Data were analyzed using logistic regression tests. The results of the study were obtained from the variables of Mother's education (p=0.017; OR=11; 95%CI 1.048-115.510) and feeding pattern (p=0.002; OR=6.76; 95%CI 1,820-25,174) had an effect on the incidence of stunting in children, while the variables of maternal age and maternal occupation had no effect on the incidence of stunting in children. The results of the multivariate analysis showed that only feeding pattern was the most significant to increase the incidence of stunting. Regular education is needed about the right feeding pattern for mothers who have children so that the risk of stunting can be minimized.

Public discourse surrounding the Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) program has grown rapidly as the government seeks to improve children’s nutritional intake through large-scale meal distribution. However, various implementation issues such as reports of food poisoning, substandard meal quality, and suspicions of budget mismanagement have raised concerns about the program’s effectiveness and integrity. This study aims to analyze public perceptions of the MBG program using YouTube comments as a data source to understand dominant narratives and sentiment trends. The research employs text preprocessing, N-gram extraction, word cloud visualization, and sentiment analysis using a transformer-based model to evaluate linguistic patterns and emotional polarity. The results show that negative sentiment dominates with 2,242 comments, significantly higher than positive and neutral categories, driven by frequent occurrences of terms such as korupsi, proyek, bocor, and masalah. Word cloud and N-gram findings reveal recurring themes related to food safety, financial transparency, and program implementation gaps.
