The effectiveness of generalist therapy in improving auditory hallucination control in schizophrenia patients at a mental hospital
Sensory perception disorders in the form of auditory hallucinations in schizophrenia patients can disrupt social functioning, reduce quality of life, and increase the risk of dangerous behavior. Method in this case report discusses the application of generalist therapy to a 40-year-old male patient with a history of schizophrenia and a relapse due to drug withdrawal, who was treated at Wisma Nakula, Grhasia Mental Hospital. During the four-day intervention, four strategies for hallucination control were implemented: warning techniques, medication adherence, conversations with others, and scheduled activities. Results showed improvement in the patient's abilities across nearly all indicators, accompanied by a decrease in the frequency and intensity of hallucinations. Symptoms such as poor concentration and pacing disappeared, while hearing whispers persisted but with reduced clinical impact. The patient was able to consistently practice reprimanding techniques, understand the shape, color, and schedule of medications, and report side effects of tremors. Furthermore, the patient was able to initiate social interactions using clear and polite language and participate in selected scheduled activities. Conclusion findings suggest that generalist therapy can be an effective, structured, and holistic nursing intervention to improve self-control and social functioning in patients with auditory hallucinations. This report adds to the clinical evidence that the application of targeted coping strategies can help patients with schizophrenia self-manage their symptoms and has the potential to be integrated into daily nursing care in mental health services.

Fermentasi Teh Cascara Asal Kulit Kopi Arabika (Coffea arabica) Dan Robusta (Coffea canephora) Dengan Lactobacillus Sp.
Controlling coffee husk waste is still a challenge for farmers, the increase in coffee productivity encourages an increase in the amount of waste from coffee processing such as coffee husks which can be used as cascara and functional drinks. One way to improve the quality of cascara is by adding a fermentation process using lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus sp). This study aims to determine the physical characteristics of cascara with arabica and robusta coffee bark and to determine the effect of fermentation using Lactobacillus sp on the quality of cascara. In this study, the oven method was used for 10 hours with a variation of fermentation time of 24, 48, and 72 hours. The test parameters were pH levels using Mc testers, moisture content and ash content using gravimetric methods, caffeine content using Uv-Vis spectrophotometry, and organoleptic using test scoring methods. The pH test results of cascara arabica experienced a significant decrease compared to cascara robusta with a lowest value of 3.7 after 72 hours of fermentation. The results of the moisture content test on both types of cascara showed a significant decrease in the drying temperature of 50°C which was below 8% in accordance with SNI 3836:2013. Ash content testing showed results below 8% in accordance with SNI 3836:2013, stating that the fermentation period did not have a significant effect. The caffeine content of cascara arabica leads to a yield of 1.1% - 1.2% while cascara robusta leads to a higher value of 2.1% - 2.4%. Organoleptic tests indicated that cascara arabica was preferred at 48-hour fermentation at a temperature of 30°C with an aroma scoring value of 2.8; Taste 2.75 ; Color; 1.65. Meanwhile, cascara robusta offers a stability of flavor that the panelists also liked. This research is expected to be a guide for producers and researchers in optimizing cascara processing to increase economic value and sustainability.
The influence of instagram social media on youth political participation in the 2024 regional election in Karimun Regency
This study aims to analyze the influence of Instagram social media on youth political participation in the 2024 Regional Election (Pilkada) in Karimun Regency. The background of this research is based on the low level of political participation in Karimun Regency, where nearly half of the Permanent Voter List (DPT) did not exercise their voting rights. The research employed a quantitative explanatory method with data collected through an online questionnaire. The sample consisted of 397 youth respondents selected using purposive sampling, with criteria of being active Instagram users and registered in the 2024 Pilkada DPT. Data analysis was carried out using validity, reliability, and normality tests, as well as simple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS. The results show that Instagram has a significant influence on youth political participation, as evidenced by a regression coefficient value of 0.730 and a significance value of 0.000 (<0.05). The R² value of 0.496 indicates that 49.6% of the variation in youth political participation is explained by Instagram usage, while the remaining 50.4% is influenced by external factors such as formal political education, social environment, and organizational experience. These findings reinforce the Uses and Gratifications Theory, which posits that individuals actively use media to fulfill specific needs, including obtaining political information and engaging in democratic processes. The study concludes that Instagram plays an important role in enhancing youth political participation, both through seeking political information, discussions, digital campaigns, and exercising voting rights. The practical implication is that political parties and election organizers need to optimize creative and relevant digital campaign strategies to engage the younger generation.

The relationship between mothers' knowledge and the management of feverish seizures in toddlers at Sleman Regional Hospital, Yogyakarta
Toddlers are a vulnerable group to illnesses, particularly fevers. If left untreated and not properly managed, fevers can lead to febrile seizures. A mother needs to have knowledge and skills to care for a sick child. Lack of adequate knowledge about febrile seizures can lead to worsening conditions. Therefore, parental knowledge is essential for determining appropriate treatment for febrile seizures and minimizing their impact on the child. This study used quantitative research with correlation method and cross-sectional approach with accidental sampling technique and obtained a sample of 66 respondents. The research instrument was a questionnaire on the level of knowledge about febrile seizures and the treatment of febrile seizures modified from previous research by Stella (2022). In this study, the Chi Square test was used where the test is used to determine the relationship between two or more variables with the data scale in the form of ordinal. At the level of maternal knowledge, it was dominated by the good category with 32 respondents (48.5%). In the handling of febrile seizures, it was dominated by the good category with 49 respondents (74.2%). After conducting the Chi-square test, a significant value of 0.000 was obtained (p-value <0.05) and a correlation coefficient of 0.470> r table (0.40 - 0.599), so there is a relationship or correlation with a moderate level of correlation between the level of maternal knowledge and the handling of febrile seizures in toddlers. Statistically, there is a significant correlation between maternal knowledge and the management of febrile seizures in toddlers. Knowledge about managing febrile seizures in toddlers is crucial. The better a mother's knowledge, the better the care she can provide for her child if a febrile seizure occurs, thus ensuring the child receives appropriate treatment to prevent recurrence.
Effects of parental (authoritarian upbringing) in youth associations in the village of Wanujoyo Lor, Srimartani, Piyungan, Bantul
Adolescence is a golden period in the developmental cycle characterized by several significant changes. Proper adaptation to these changes is crucial, as it has a major impact on the future development of adolescents. The phenomenon of strict parents or authoritarian parenting styles, which is often discussed among adolescents, often stems from parents' high expectations that emphasize control over their children without considering their feelings. In Wanujoyo Lor Village, Srimartani, Piyungan, Bantul, initial observations indicate that adolescents raised under authoritarian parenting exhibit diverse impacts, both positive and negative. This study aims to gain a deeper understAg of how authoritarian parenting influences adolescent social interactions in Wanujoyo Lor Village, Srimartani, Piyungan, Bantul. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. The sample consists of adolescents aged 16–18 years who receive authoritarian parenting, supported by information from close friends and parents. Sampling was conducted using snowball sampling with a sample size of 5 out of a total population of 15. Data was collected through interviews, audio recordings, and field notes. Data analysis included filtering important information, presenting data, verifying, and drawing conclusions, using triangulation to ensure data validity. The research findings indicate that authoritarian parenting has negative impacts on adolescents' social interactions, such as low self-confidence, difficulty adapting, a tendency to withdraw, and the emergence of rebellious behavior. Meanwhile, positive impacts include children having a high sense of responsibility and discipline. Authoritarian parenting has a significant impact on the social and emotional development of adolescents. It is hoped that parents can create a more open and communicative environment so that adolescents can grow with high self-confidence and be able to interact well in the community
Comparison of male and female candidates' perceptions in interpreting failure in the 2024 central java legislative elections
The phenomenon of legislative candidates experiencing depression or psychosis recurs every election. This is due to the increasing number of candidates entering this free political market, while the quota is limited. Ultimately, competition is inevitable, even though they are not mentally or psychologically prepared. However, some candidates are not "deterred" by their failures. Instead of experiencing stress, they run again in the next election period. These differing actions raise questions about the relationship between perceptions and views on how failures are interpreted during elections. The purpose of this study is to analyze the comparative perceptions of male and female legislative candidates regarding the meaning of failure in the 2024 Central Java Legislative Election. Perception is the process by which a person provides a response, meaning, image, or interpretation to what they see, hear, or feel through their senses. The results of this process are reflected in the individual's attitudes, opinions, and behavior. Psychologically, men and women have different characteristics influenced by biological, social, and cultural factors. This study is a mixed-methods (qualitative and quantitative) study. Based on the research conducted, the results showed that there were differences in the meaning of failure in the Central Java legislative elections between male and female legislative candidates. Female legislative candidates interpreted failure more emotionally and less rationally, while male legislative candidates interpreted failure less emotionally and more rationally. Based on the results of the study, there was a gap between the meaning of failure according to men and women, men view women's positions as privileged (positive meaning), while women view women's positions as inferior to men (negative meaning). Women are only considered to fulfill the 30% representation requirement. Meanwhile, women dared to run for candidacy more because of the support of those closest to them, while men dared to run for candidacy more because of the support of their party. Male legislative candidates have a positive meaning, failure as part of learning, while female legislative candidates have a negative meaning, where failure is something that hurts.Men and women are naturally different, including in their perceptions. However, it's best to prepare beforehand, especially psychologically, so that losing an election doesn't become a psychological issue. Being prepared is crucial when running for office.
Implementation of generalist therapy in schizophrenia patients with auditory hallucinations nursing problems
Mental disorders remain a global health problem, with schizophrenia being one of the most complex forms due to its chronic nature, relapses, and high risk of disability. Auditory hallucinations are the most common symptom experienced by schizophrenia patients and have the potential to impact self-control and social functioning. Method of this case report illustrates the application of generalist therapy to a 38-year-old man with a history of schizophrenia since 2012 who was admitted to Grhasia Mental Hospital in Yogyakarta after experiencing a relapse due to medication withdrawal. The patient exhibited typical symptoms of hearing whispers, talking to himself, pacing, and disorganized behavior. Nursing interventions were provided over four days, focusing on techniques for addressing hallucinations, medication adherence, conversations with others, and implementation of scheduled activities. Results showed gradual progress, from only being able to name strategies at the beginning of the intervention to being able to consistently practice them on the fourth day. Conclusion of this report confirms that generalist therapy is an effective and simple approach to help patients control hallucinations and improve adaptive functioning. These findings are expected to enrich the literature on psychiatric nursing care, particularly by providing concrete examples of the application of theory to clinical practice, and serve as a reference for students and healthcare professionals in developing professional skills in caring for patients with schizophrenia.

Development of pH-Responsive smart hydrogel incorporating basil eugenol and anthocyanin for controlled drug delivery
This study aimed to develop a pH-responsive smart hydrogel system based on chitosan–acrylic acid, fortified with butterfly pea (Clitoria ternatea) extract as a visual stability sensor and loaded with basil (Ocimum basilicum) leaf derived eugenol as a natural antidepressant. The hydrogel was synthesized through free-radical polymerization and characterized in terms of drug loading, release behavior, and structural interactions. Drug release tests under simulated physiological conditions revealed minimal eugenol release at pH 6.8 (oral cavity), limited release at pH 1.2 (gastric environment), and maximal release at pH 7.4 (intestinal environment). The formulation containing 2.6% acrylic acid demonstrated optimal performance, achieving high release levels in the intestine without premature loss. FTIR analysis confirmed successful grafting of acrylic acid, the incorporation of eugenol and anthocyanins, and the presence of new intermolecular interactions that enhanced structural stability. These findings indicate that the developed hydrogel holds significant potential as a controlled drug delivery system, combining therapeutic efficacy with an integrated colorimetric monitoring function.

This study applied a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test post-test approach. A sampel total of 29 adolescent girls were selected through purposive sampling. The intervention consisted of counseling delivered through video media. The research instrument was a knowledge questionnaire, and data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test with a significance level of 0.05. The findings showed an improvement in knowledge categories from fair (51.72%) and poor (48.28%) to good (51.72%) and fair (48.28%). The Wilcoxon test indicated a significant difference (p = 0.001). In conclusion, counseling using video media had a significant effect on improving the knowledge of adolescent girls regarding dysmenorrhea management. Routine education is recommended so that adolescents are able to manage dysmenorrhea independently and remain active in learning.
The representation of submission in the music video of “33x” by Perunggu
This study examines the representation of submission in the music video “33x” by Perunggu using a qualitative method and Roland Barthes’ semiotic analysis. Data were collected through observation of the music video and relevant literature, validated with triangulation. The findings reveal that the meaning of submission is represented through three levels of tawakal as described by Imam Al-Ghazali: full trust as one entrusts matters to a reliable representative, total dependence like a child on its mother, and complete submission comparable to a corpse in the hands of its washer. Visual narratives such as the interaction between a son and his father, the struggle of the protagonist as a sailor, and his acceptance of his father’s death illustrate these stages. The study concludes that submission is not weakness but a form of spiritual strength, and that music videos can serve as effective reflective media to communicate religious, moral, and cultural values to audiences.

Post appendicitis surgery with acute pain in the PKU Muhammadiyah Hospital Wonosobo
Appendicitis is one of the most common cases of acute abdominal surgery, with appendectomy as the main treatment. Postoperatively, acute pain becomes the dominant complaint that can interfere with mobilization, slow down wound healing, and decrease the patient's quality of life. This study aims to describe nursing care in post-appendectomy patients with acute pain through a combination of pharmacological therapy and Benson's relaxation technique. The design used was a descriptive case study on two male patients aged 16 and 18 years old in Room Khadijah 2 of PKU Muhammadiyah Wonosobo Hospital. Interventions included the administration of analgesics (ketorolac-tramadol and metamizole) as well as training in Benson's relaxation techniques for three days. Pain evaluation was performed using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) before and after the intervention. The results showed a significant decrease in the pain scale: the first patient from a scale of 6 to 4, and the second patient from a scale of 5 to 2. Patients with a higher intensity of relaxation exercises showed a more optimal reduction in pain. These findings confirm that a holistic approach that integrates pharmacological and nonpharmacological therapies can improve the effectiveness of postoperative pain management. The active role of nurses in education and assistance in relaxation techniques and family support is an important factor in the success of therapy. This study recommends the integration of Benson's relaxation technique in nursing practice as a supportive modality for post-appendectomy pain control.
Overview of emotional regulation in teachers with problematic students
This study aims to find out the picture of emotion regulation in private junior high school (SMP) teachers in Sleman Regency when dealing with problematic students. Emotion regulation is understood as the ability of individuals to recognize, control, and express emotions adaptively so as not to have a negative impact on themselves or others. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method. The research subjects consisted of three private junior high school teachers who were selected using purposive sampling techniques. The data collection technique was carried out through in-depth interviews and observations, then analyzed using phenomenological analysis. The results of the study show that teachers' emotional regulation can be seen through four aspects according to Gross's theory, namely: (1) emotion regulation strategies, which are shown by implementing religious teachings, self-control, and self-introspection; (2) the ability of individuals not to be affected by negative emotions, through an attitude of seeking solutions, being patient, avoiding emotional triggers, and reflecting on the responses that arise; (3) emotional control response, which can be seen from the ability to deal directly with emotional causes, calm down, and divert one's mind; and (4) acceptance of emotional responses, in the form of venting emotions in a certain way, recognizing the emotions felt, having the desire to change, and not caring too much about the views of others. Overall, this study confirms that teachers who are able to manage their emotions well will be more effective in creating a conducive and harmonious classroom atmosphere. Emotional regulation is not only important for the well-being of teachers themselves, but also has an impact on the quality of interaction with students.

Implementation of interprofessional collaboration in childbirth with eclampsia: a case study at Imelda Hospital, Medan
Maternal mortality rates in Indonesia remain high, with eclampsia being one of the main causes. The management of eclampsia cases requires interprofessional collaboration to optimise emergency maternal care. The aim of this study was to explore the implementation of interprofessional collaboration practices in childbirth with eclampsia at Imelda General Hospital, Medan. This was a qualitative study using a single case study approach, with nine informants (doctors, midwives, nurses, medical laboratory technicians, pharmacists, patients). Data were collected through observation, semi-structured interviews, and medical documentation, and analysed using thematic analysis with NVivo 12 Plus. Interprofessional collaboration practices in accordance with SOPs for the management of eclampsia are already in place, but specific SOPs for collaboration are not yet available. Five main themes were identified: collaboration practices, institutional support mechanisms, work environment and culture, barriers, and healthcare workers' expectations. The main barriers are limited healthcare personnel (especially midwives) and uneven PONEK training. Collaboration is carried out in accordance with the respective roles of health workers, but there is no systematic interprofessional discussion. Nevertheless, there has been an increase in rapid response (triage within 5–10 minutes), compliance with SOPs, appropriate clinical services, and patient satisfaction.
The The effect of adding pineapple honey fruit extract (ananas comosus (l) merr.) concentration on the characteristics of butterfly pea flower kombucha tea
Kombucha Kombucha is a fermented beverage containing bioactive compounds with various health benefits. Honey pineapple was chosen because it contains vitamin C and bromelain, which function as antioxidants and anti-inflammatories, while butterfly pea flower was chosen because it is rich in anthocyanins, which are natural antioxidants. This study aims to determine the effect of variations in the formulation of butterfly pea flower (Clitoria ternatea L.) and honey pineapple (Ananas comosus L.) on the chemical parameters, microbiological parameters, and organoleptic parameters of kombucha. The study used a completely randomized design with three treatments and three replications, namely Purblu kombucha, Sunblu kombucha, and Goldblu kombucha. The parameters observed included chemical parameters (pH, alcohol content, total acetic acid content, vitamin C content, antioxidant activity (DPPH)), microbiological parameters (total lactic acid bacteria, antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli bacteria), and organoleptic parameters (taste, aroma, color, and level of preference). The data were analyzed using ANOVA at a confidence level (α ≤ 5%) and followed by Tukey's test. The Goldblu kombucha formulation provided the best results based on chemical and microbiological parameters. Goldblu kombucha with 30% honey pineapple extract had a significant effect on chemical and microbiological parameters but did not have a significant effect on organoleptic parameters. Goldblu kombucha produced the highest levels of acid (1.26%), vitamin C (88.23 mg/100 mL), antioxidant activity (82.93%), and antibacterial activity (17.65 mm), with an alcohol content below the MUI safety limit (0.48%). The combination of butterfly pea flowers and honey pineapple with a formulation of 70% butterfly pea flowers and 30% honey pineapple extract was able to increase bioactive compounds that have the potential to ward off free radicals and inhibit pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, Kombucha Goldblu has the potential as a functional drink in the prevention of degenerative diseases

This research is motivated by the problem of low learning motivation among students in special sports classes (KKO) which is influenced by extrinsic factors, one of which is the teacher's teaching method. Student perceptions of teacher teaching methods are considered important because they can shape learning motivation, especially for KKO students who face unique challenges such as busy training schedules, fatigue, and a tendency to lack focus on academic learning. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between student perceptions of teacher teaching methods and the learning motivation of students in special sports classes in Sleman. The study used a correlational design with a population of 143 KKO students at SMA Negeri 1 Seyegan and SMA Negeri 2 Nganglik, with a sample of 60 students determined using the Slovin formula and cluster sampling techniques. The research instruments were a Likert scale questionnaire adapted from the motivation scale of Uno (2015) and Ningsih (2020), as well as a scale of students' perceptions of teacher teaching methods from Cahyanuari (2017). Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics using normality, linearity, and Pearson Product Moment correlation tests through SPSS. The results of the study showed that the majority of students rated their perceptions of the teacher's teaching methods in the moderate category (67%) and their learning motivation was also in the moderate category (79%). The normality test yielded a significance value of 0.178 (> 0.05) so that the data was normally distributed, while the linearity test showed a linear relationship (p < 0.05). The results of the hypothesis test obtained a correlation coefficient of r = 0.644 with a significance of 0.000 (p < 0.05), which means there is a positive and significant relationship with a strong category between students' perceptions of the teacher's teaching methods and their learning motivation. This finding confirms that the more positive students' perceptions of the variety of methods, directions, and appropriateness of the teacher's teaching, the higher their learning motivation.

Challenges in the application of CRISPR-Cas9 for genetic engineering of nile tilapia (oreochromis niloticus): systematic review
Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is an important aquaculture commodity in Indonesia, but productivity and disease resistance remain major challenges. CRISPR-Cas9 technology offers the potential to precisely improve growth, disease resistance, and other superior traits in a single generation. This study aims to identify technical, biological, and applied challenges in the application of CRISPR-Cas9 in tilapia and strategies that can be used to optimize gene editing results. The research method was conducted using a systematic literature review (SLR) approach to identify the challenges of applying CRISPR-Cas9 in tilapia genetic engineering. The application of CRISPR-Cas9 faces technical challenges such as mosaicism, off-target effects, and low editing efficiency, which can be overcome by optimizing sgRNA, Cas9 quality, injection methods, and multi-omics approaches. Biological challenges include infertility due to reproductive gene mutations, hormonal imbalances, and genetic compensation phenomena, which can be minimized through conditional knockout, rescue experiments, and dual targets. At the application level, mutants are often difficult to utilize due to reduced viability, so marker-based selection strategies, selection of appropriate target genes, and public regulation and socialization are necessary to support successful implementation. CRISPR-Cas9 has great potential to increase the productivity and resilience of tilapia. Its successful implementation requires an integrated approach that combines technical optimization, attention to biological effects, and application strategies that consider regulations and public acceptance.
Case study: chest physiotherapy as a nursing intervention in a 20- month-old toddler with pneumonia in Padukuhan Bendungan Yogyakarta
Pneumonia is one of the most common diseases affecting vulnerable groups, particularly toddlers, due to their immature immune systems. This condition can trigger symptoms such as cough, fever, difficulty breathing, and an increased respiratory rate, which are the main clinical signs in children. An effective nursing intervention that can be performed is chest physiotherapy to help remove mucus from the child’s respiratory tract. This study employed a descriptive design with a nursing practice case study approach. The case study focused on examining the respiratory rate (RR) of pediatric patients with respiratory disorders (pneumonia) after undergoing chest physiotherapy techniques effectively for 3×24 hours. After providing health education on pneumonia and demonstrating chest physiotherapy techniques, the evaluation showed an improvement in respiratory function before and after performing chest physiotherapy. The average difference of 5 breaths/minute indicated that chest physiotherapy has an effect in removing sputum, thereby optimizing respiratory ventilation. The implementation of nursing interventions in the form of chest physiotherapy proved effective in helping remove sputum, improving respiratory rate, and enhancing ventilation in children with pneumonia. In addition, providing health education on pneumonia increased the family’s knowledge and skills. This supports both the prevention of recurrence and the management of pneumonia at the family level.

The aging process can bring about changes in a person's physical health, strength, and mental abilities. Seniors can become less than optimal due to the drastic physical and psychological changes that occur as they age. Age 60 and above, the end of the aging process, which impacts three areas: biological, economic, and social, is a continuous process of aging, characterized by a decline in physical endurance. Physical changes can cause problems for the elderly, both non-medical issues such as wrinkled skin, graying hair, and slowed movement, as well as medical issues that can compromise their health. Therefore, seniors are expected to maintain their health, as aging, accompanied by a decline in immunity, can lead to health problems, and neglecting health care during youth can have significant consequences later in life. In addition to physical changes, another important aspect of seniors' psychological well-being is the changes related to mental health. Common mental health issues in the elderly include anxiety, stress, difficulty sleeping, and, most seriously, dementia, all of which can hinder daily activities. Therefore, it is important for seniors to maintain their physical and mental health through a healthy lifestyle, a good diet, regular exercise, and proper medical care. Furthermore, seniors need to maintain their mental health by remaining socially active, engaging in activities they enjoy, and maintaining good relationships with family and friends. This can help prevent social isolation and depression, which are common among seniors. Possible solutions to achieve a healthy and happy senior population include maintaining physical health, including regular physical activity, maintaining a healthy diet, and receiving proper medical care. Furthermore, maintaining emotional health by maintaining good social relationships, engaging in enjoyable activities, and managing stress effectively is also crucial, one example of which is group activity therapy (TAK). Healthy and happy seniors can also achieve happiness by accepting and appreciating themselves, finding meaning in life, and having a clear purpose. With proper care and attention, seniors can achieve a healthy and happy life in their later years.

Stunting Prevention Counseling and Education Through the My Plate Program in Salam 1 Hamlet in the Reguler Community Service Program
Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem that affects children's physical growth and cognitive development. In Indonesia, the prevalence of stunting reached 21.6% in 2022. In the same year, the stunting rate in Kulon Progo Regency increased to 15.8%. The purpose of this activity was to analyze the effectiveness of the Isi Piringku (Fill My Plate) program in increasing adolescents' knowledge about stunting prevention. The activity was held on August 22, 2025, at Rumah Joglo Salam 1, attended by 32 participants from Karang Taruna members and KKN students. The material covered stunting rates in Kulon Progo, the definition of stunting, the effects and causes of stunting, the Isi Piringku program, the relationship between Isi Piringku and stunting prevention, and the role of Karang Taruna in stunting prevention. The evaluation results showed that 66% (21 people) of participants had a high level of understanding of the relationship between stunting and Isi Piringku, while 34% (11 people) had a low level of understanding. Isi Piringku education proved to be effective in increasing the knowledge of the majority of adolescents, but a more comprehensive learning strategy is still needed for groups with low levels of understanding. This program is expected to increase adolescents' awareness as agents of change in stunting prevention through the application of a balanced diet based on the My Plate concept.
Early Detection and Education Efforts on Non-Communicable Diseases Through Examination and Counseling Activities
The background to this initiative is the high susceptibility of the elderly to degenerative diseases such as gout, which is influenced by age, diet, and obesity. Furthermore, 2018 Riskesdas data shows that the prevalence of gout in Indonesia reached 24.7% based on symptoms, with the highest rate in those over 75 years old. In the Pager Hamlet area itself, gout testing had never been conducted before, making this initiative a priority. The purpose of this activity is to raise public awareness about the importance of early detection and prevention of non-communicable diseases (NCDs), such as gout. Through this activity, we aim to identify the risk of NCDs in pre-elderly and elderly populations, particularly gout, while also providing comprehensive education so they can manage their health independently. The implementation method for this activity is participatory, involving community leaders and members of the Elderly Family Development Program (Bina Keluarga Lansia) as local committee members. The activity is conducted in three stages: preparation (community needs survey), implementation (uric acid tests and outreach), and evaluation (question and answer sessions). The instrument used for the examination is the GCU. The results of the examination on 42 participants showed significant differences between men and women. Of the eight male participants, 87.5% had normal uric acid levels, while of the 34 female participants, the majority (61.8%) had hyperuricemia. These results confirm the finding that women, especially those entering menopause, are more susceptible to hyperuricemia due to decreased estrogen levels. The conclusion of this activity is that structured early detection and education programs are highly effective in identifying diseases early and raising public awareness. This activity is a crucial step in preventing complications, reducing medical costs, and improving the quality of life for the elderly.
Character Building Through Anti-Bullying Socialization to Prevent Bullying Among Muhammadiyah Balecatur Students
Anti-bullying socialization at SD Muhamadiyah Balecatur was carried out as an effort to provide students with a deeper understanding of bullying. This activity aimed to provide comprehensive understanding through anti-bullying socialization about the impact of bullying and how to deal with it. Previously, students still unconsciously engaged in bullying behavior. Such bullying behavior included teasing and mockery, as well as physical bullying such as pushing, pulling hijabs, and hitting. Students also still thought that such behavior was just a joke. This activity was carried out by involving 28 fourth-grade students. The method used in this activity was descriptive with a qualitative approach. The results of the socialization activity showed that students were able to identify various forms of bullying, including verbal, physical, social, and cyberbullying. In addition, they also understood the negative impacts of bullying, both for victims and perpetrators. This interactive socialization encourages students to discuss and share their experiences related to bullying that they have experienced or witnessed. It is hoped that this activity will not only prevent bullying at SD Muhammadiyah Balecatur, but also shape students' characters to be better, more respectful, and caring towards others. Thus, this socialization is an important step in creating a healthy learning environment that supports student growth and development

This empowerment program successfully improved students’ understanding and motivation to adopt clean and healthy behaviors. Based on the results of this community service, it can be concluded that a participatory approach through KKN is effective in instilling healthy habits from an early age, serving as both a preventive measure against infectious diseases and a strategic effort to shape a healthy and productive future generation.
The Effectiveness of Stunting Prevention Education through the Community Service Program on Increasing the Knowledge of Residents in Jatisawit Hamlet: A Pre-test and Post-test Approach
Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem that has a serious impact on a child's physical growth, cognitive development, and long-term productivity. Efforts to prevent stunting must be carried out through community-based health education. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of stunting prevention education through a Student Community Service (KKN) program in Padukuhan Jatisawit. The method used was a pretest and posttest with a questionnaire instrument, as well as an N-Gain analysis to measure the increase in participants' knowledge. The results showed an increase in knowledge scores from an average pretest of 8.5 to 9.9 on the posttest, with an N-Gain value of 0.93 which is in the high category and a program effectiveness of 93.33%. These findings confirm that interactive lecture methods, discussions, and simple educational media such as leaflets are able to significantly increase community knowledge. Although the increase in knowledge is considered very effective, the program's sustainability needs to be directed towards shaping the attitudes and behavior of the community so that educational interventions have a long-term impact on stunting prevention efforts
Education: 6 steps to hand washing for infection prevention in children
Handwashing and toothbrushing habits are part of Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (PHBS) that are effective in preventing infectious diseases in early childhood. However, the implementation of PHBS in schools still faces challenges, such as limited facilities, lack of teacher role models, and children’s low level of understanding. This community service activity was carried out at TK PKK Nogosari on August 20, 2025, involving 85 children aged 5–6 years. The methods used included health education, demonstrations, hands-on practice, and pre-test and post-test evaluations. The results showed a significant improvement, where children’s understanding of PHBS increased from 44.7% to 84.7%, while their skills in practicing the six steps of handwashing improved from 30.6% to 71.8%. Interactive education through audio-visual media, posters, songs, and hands-on practice proved effective in enhancing children’s knowledge and skills in PHBS. Therefore, early habituation of PHBS in schools plays an important role in instilling sustainable healthy behaviors into adulthood.

Diabetic foot exercise intervention in family nursing care with ineffective family health management
Family nursing is one of the areas of community nursing services that places the family and its components as the focus of care. Ineffective family health management, can worsen the health status of family members due to suboptimal handling of health problems. Globally 70% of deaths are caused by non-communicable diseases such as cancer, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Management of ineffective family health related to diabetes mellitus can be addressed through both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions. One form of non-pharmacological intervention is diabetic foot exercise. The goals of diabetic foot exercise are to improve blood circulation, strengthen small muscles, prevent foot deformities, increase the strength of calf and thigh muscles, and overcome joint mobility limitations. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of non-pharmacological therapy, specifically diabetic foot exercise. Data collection was carried out using assessment sheets, interviews, and demonstrations. Leaflets were used as media to assist in the practice of diabetic foot exercises. The results showed a decrease in blood glucose levels after the diabetic foot exercise was performed routinely. This demonstrates that diabetic foot exercise is an effective technique to help reduce blood glucose levels.
