Abstract: Fever is the most common disease in children. Fever in children can be found in various conditions such as infection, inflammation, or other unknown causes. One of the laboratory tests that can be used is the hs-CRP and… erythrocyte sedimentation rate examination. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between hs-CRP levels and erythrocyte sedimentation rate in pediatric febrile patients. The research method was observational with a cross-sectional method using secondary data of 62 samples. Data analysis used the Spearman's rho test. The results of the study showed that most of the pediatric patients who experienced fever were male (59.7%), and the age of the child was 5 years (21%). In pediatric patients with fever, the average hs-CRP level was 19.34 mg/l, and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate was 32.73 mm/hour. The results of the correlation test using the Spearman's rho test method obtained p = 0.001 with r = 0.575, so it can be concluded that there is a moderate and positive relationship between hs-CRP levels and erythrocyte sedimentation rate in pediatric patients with fever.

Syaifulloh Ibnu Alam Nurzaman, Siti Azizah, Achadiah Rachmawati, Bara Ismiaji
Abstract: This study aims to evaluate the strategic development of the government grant program for goat farming groups in Kediri Regency through a SWOT analysis approach. The program, launched in 2022, serves as an economic empowerment… erment initiative to support small-scale farmers by increasing livestock populations and improving rural welfare. Data were collected using a descriptive quantitative method through in-depth interviews with program managers and grant recipients, supported by direct field observations. The Internal Factor Evaluation (IFE) and External Factor Evaluation (EFE) matrices were used to determine the program’s strategic position, while the Cartesian SWOT diagram identified the appropriate development quadrant. The results show that the program is situated in Quadrant II, indicating strong internal conditions but significant external threats. With IFE and EFE scores of 2.9252 and 3,1333 respectively, the analysis suggests that the program should implement Strength–Threat (S-T) strategies, including consistent quarterly reporting, increased technical staff, and public reinforcement of the program’s catalytic function. These findings are expected to guide the formulation of more effective strategies for sustainable livestock empowerment in Kediri Regency.

EMOTION REGULATION STRATEGIES IN HADITH PERSPECTIVE AND THEIR RELEVANCE TO CONTEMPORARY PSYCHOLOGY

Razilhija, Eriska, Romlah Abubakar Askar, Abdul Ghofur
Abstract: This study aims to examine emotion regulation strategies from the perspective of Hadith and their relevance to contemporary psychology. The main focus of this research is on three Hadiths that provide guidance on managing… g emotions, particularly anger: Hadith Abu Dawud no. 4150 on reciting ta'awudz when angry, Hadith Abu Dawud no. 4151 on changing body posture when angry, and Hadith Isnad Shahih no. 9630 on the prohibition of anger. These three Hadiths teach techniques that can help individuals manage their emotions effectively, such as seeking protection from Allah, changing physical conditions to relieve tension, and restraining from anger. From the perspective of contemporary psychology, these strategies resemble emotion regulation approaches found in theories such as cognitive reappraisal and emotion regulation strategies, which aim to change perception or physiological responses to negative emotions. This research also reveals how teachings in the Hadith can be used as a foundation to understand emotion regulation more holistically, integrating both spiritual and psychological dimensions. Through this understanding, the study highlights the importance of integrating Islamic teachings with contemporary psychological principles to create a more comprehensive approach to managing human emotions, particularly anger, in the modern world.

Jaja Abdul Jabar, Suheti, Supardi, Anis Fauzi
Abstract: This article examines the 9-year basic education policy in Indonesia, which is an implementation of the 1945 Constitution to guarantee the right to education for all citizens. This policy aims to improve access and quality… ty of education, improve the life of the nation, and create quality human resources. The review includes the history of the policy, starting from Law No. 4 of 1950 to the launch of the program by President Soeharto in 1984, as well as the influence of political interests and the modernization of Islamic education in the National Education System Law. The implementation of the policy involves a shared responsibility between the government, parents, and the community. Although it has been running, challenges such as low awareness of education and family economic conditions are still obstacles. Therefore, collaborative efforts and adequate funding are needed to ensure the provision of quality basic education, as well as open alternative education pathways. Sustainable policies such as the 12-year compulsory education program are expected to strengthen the foundation of education and increase access for future generations

THE QURAN AND EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION STRATEGIES FOR INTER-RELIGIOUS TOLERANCE

Muhammad Rizkon, Muhammad Azizan Fitriana, Samsul Ariyadi
Abstract: Diversity is an inevitability that cannot be avoided. It is a sunnatullah that should be done without consent. When diversity is combined with various assumptions of truth, an intolerant attitude arises. This problem is… caused by a misunderstanding of the message of religious tolerance, which causes its adherents to appear with different faces. Therefore, the Qur'an explains what tolerance really is in Islamic teachings. Based on this problem, the researcher is interested in conducting a comparative analysis of how the interpretations of Hamka and Ali As-Ṣabūnī are related to religious tolerance, as well as the strengthening of the socio-historical background of both of them towards this interpretation. This study uses a qualitative approach with a comparative study method. Data collection consists of literature studies and observations. Descriptive analysis is used in the comparative analysis method. Lucien Goldmann's genetic structuralism theory is one of the theories used to strengthen research as a surgical tool. This theory explains that a work or text is the work of its own author, along with the historical reality that conditions the emergence of the work or text. To improve the analysis of this research, discussions of scholars and interpreters of the verses of the Qur'an related to religious tolerance are also used. Research shows that Hamka and Ali As-Ṣabūnī generally agree that coercion in embracing religion is not allowed. However, Hamka directs the meaning of religious tolerance with the applicable conditions and limitations. This study also refers to the theory of genetic structure which states that the tendency of general and specific interpretations of poems on religious tolerance cannot be separated from the socio-historical context of each community in which the two figures lived. This assumption is that the works of the two figures are not only personal works, but also the works of their respective communities and the social and historical realities of their respective times.
