PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENTAL INFLUENCES ON SILICOSIS: A NARRATIVE REVIEW INTEGRATING COMMUNITY EXPOSURE AND WISTAR RAT EXPERIMENTAL FINDINGS IN COAL-HANDLING REGIONS

Mustika Fatimah, Irsan Saleh, Susila Arita, Legiran
Abstract: Coal mining, handling, and transportation activities are major sources of airborne particulate matter containing respirable crystalline silica, which poses significant risks to respiratory health. Silicosis remains a serious… ious occupational and environmental disease affecting not only workers but also communities living near coal-handling areas. Physical environmental factors, including air quality, temperature, humidity, and wind speed, play an important role in influencing dust generation, dispersion, and inhalation exposure. This narrative review aims to synthesize current evidence on the influence of physical environmental conditions on silica exposure and silicosis development, integrating findings from environmental monitoring studies, epidemiological research, and experimental Wistar rat models. A literature search was conducted using major scientific databases to identify relevant peer-reviewed articles published between 2010 and 2024. The reviewed evidence indicates that prolonged or high-intensity exposure to silica dust is strongly associated with chronic pulmonary inflammation and progressive fibrosis. Environmental conditions can exacerbate exposure risk by increasing airborne particulate concentrations and respiratory vulnerability. Experimental studies using Wistar rats provide mechanistic insights into silica-induced lung injury, supporting epidemiological observations in human populations. This review highlights the importance of integrating environmental, occupational, and biological perspectives to improve risk prediction, early detection, and preventive strategies for silicosis in coal-handling regions.

The findings indicate that (1) the marketing mix has a significant effect on customer satisfaction and repurchase intention, (2) service quality significantly influences customer satisfaction and repurchase intention, although it represents the weakest predictor, (3) customer satisfaction significantly affects repurchase intention, and (4) customer satisfaction mediates the relationship between the marketing mix and service quality on repurchase intention.

EVALUATING GEOGRAPHY BASIC COMPETENCIES IN THE 2013 CURRICULUM IN RELATION TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF STUDENTS’ SPATIAL LITERACY

Edies Rizqi Adelia, Maulida Afna Musoffa, Shinta Ester Debora, Muhammmad Zid, Wini Mustikarani
Abstract: This study aims to analyze the extent to which the Basic Competencies (KD) in Geography in the 2013 Curriculum contribute to strengthening students' spatial literacy. The study used a qualitative descriptive approach with… h content analysis techniques on curriculum documents and source triangulation. The results showed that the Basic Competencies in Geography in grades X, XI, and XII have varying levels of strengthening spatial literacy. Grade X plays a role in building a foundation for spatial understanding related to geosphere phenomena. Grade XI strengthens understanding of spatial interactions through materials on resource distribution, population dynamics, and human-environment relationships. Meanwhile, grade XII is the level with the greatest contribution to spatial literacy through materials on remote sensing, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), rural-urban spatial patterns, and zoning. Although the structure of the Basic Competencies shows gradual development, it is not entirely consistent in demanding advanced spatial skills, especially at earlier levels. These findings emphasize the importance of strengthening learning strategies and supporting school facilities to maximize the potential of Basic Competencies in building students' spatial literacy.

QUALIFICATIONS OF THE SPIRITUAL INTEGRITY OF JESUS’ LEADERSHIP IN THE GOSPEL OF MATTHEW: IMPLICATIONS FOR CHRISTIAN LEADERSHIP IN INDONESIA

Waruwu, Elianus, Sihotang, Korintus, Paimon, Edi, Jacky, Jacky
Abstract: Penelitian ini menyoroti krisis integritas kepemimpinan yang melanda Indonesia dan gereja, yang kerap dipengaruhi oleh adopsi model kepemimpinan sekuler yang pragmatis serta mengabaikan spiritualitas Alkitabiah. Walaupun… keteladanan Yesus menjadi acuan utama, kajian teologis khusus tentang integritas spiritual kepemimpinan-Nya dalam Injil Matius masih terbatas. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mendeskripsikan dan menganalisis integritas spiritual Yesus dalam Injil Matius serta menggali implikasinya bagi kepemimpinan Kristen di Indonesia, khususnya bagi guru Pendidikan Agama Kristen dan pemimpin gereja. Penelitian menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif dengan studi literatur serta eksegesis historis-gramatikal dan teologis terhadap Injil Matius. Hasil penelitian mendefinisikan integritas secara holistik sebagai kesatuan identitas diri, keaslian hidup, keberanian moral, kedekatan dengan Allah, dan kompetensi praktis. Integritas ini berakar pada relasi dengan Allah dan menuntut keselarasan antara perkataan, tindakan, serta kehendak-Nya. Kepemimpinan Kristen dipahami bukan sekadar kapasitas manusiawi atau posisi, melainkan panggilan ilahi yang menuntut visi rohani, integritas, dan pelayanan kasih. Empat kualifikasi integritas kepemimpinan Yesus yang ditemukan adalah: (1) Kepemimpinan melalui kehidupan doa yang tekun sebagai dasar ketergantungan total pada Allah dan ketaatan kepada kehendak-Nya; (2) Kepemimpinan sesuai tuntunan Roh Kudus sebagai sumber wibawa dan kuasa yang bersumber dari pengurapan ilahi; (3) kepemimpinan berdasarkan kebenaran firman Tuhan sebagai otoritas tertinggi, sumber kebenaran, inspirasi, hikmat, dan pendoman kehidpan; dan (4) kepemimpinan berkarakter ilahi yang nyata melalui kasih agape, kerendahan hati, belas kasihan, kejujuran, ketulusan, serta penolakan terhadap kemunafikan. Kesimpulannya, integritas kerohanian merupakan pilar fundamental yang menyatukan kedalaman spiritualitas dengan kredibilitas praktis, sekaligus memberikan kerangka teologis yang kokoh untuk membangun kepemimpinan Kristen yang otentik dan transformatif di tengah krisis integritas.

ACCURACY OF TIMING IN TSH SAMPLE COLLECTION FOR CONGENITAL HYPOTHYROIDISM SCREENING AT PRIMA MEDIKA GENERAL HOSPITAL DENPASAR

Gusti Ayu Kristalia Mustika Dewi, Prasetya, Didik, Diah Prihatiningsih
Abstract: Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) is an endocrine disorder that can cause developmental delays if not detected and treated early. Congenital Hypothyroidism Screening (CHS) aims to detect abnormal levels of Thyroid Stimulating… ng Hormone (TSH) in newborns before clinical symptoms appear. The timing of blood sample collection is a critical factor because TSH levels physiologically surge within the first 24 hours of life. This study aims to determine the accuracy of TSH sampling time in CH screening at Prima Medika General Hospital, Denpasar. A descriptive analytical method was used with a total sampling technique involving 105 neonates who underwent CHS from October to December 2024. Secondary data were obtained from laboratory request forms and the Laboratory Information System (LIS). Results showed that 92.4% of samples were collected on the second day of life, which aligns with the ideal window of 48–72 hours, and only 1.9% of neonates had elevated TSH levels. The study concludes that most sample collections met the recommended timing, contributing to valid results and effective CHS implementation. Timely sampling plays a vital role in early CH detection and reflects the overall quality of neonatal laboratory services.
