The relationship between eating habits and psychological stress levels with the incidence of gastritis in adolescents: An approach based on the DASS-42 scale
Background: One of the conditions frequently seen in hospitalized patients is gastritis, which is an inflammation of the stomach mucosa that can be either acute or chronic. High levels of stress and an improper diet are the main causes of gastritis. More research is required to determine the reasons linked to the occurrence of gastritis in adolescents, as the prevalence of the condition has dramatically grown in the Moncongloe Community Health Center operating area. Method: This study employs a cross-sectional design and a quantitative methodology. Using an accidental sampling technique, 58 respondents made up the sample. A questionnaire covering diet, stress measured by the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-42), and the prevalence of gastritis was used to gather data. Data analysis was carried out using the chi-square test with a significance level of α = 0.05. Results: According to the study's findings, teenagers with gastritis were more likely to have poor eating habits (56.8%). While the association between diet and the incidence of gastritis was not statistically significant (p = 0.051), statistical testing revealed a significant relationship between stress levels and the condition (p = 0.042). Conclusion: Stress levels and the prevalence of gastritis in teenagers in the Moncongloe Community Health Center's service area are significantly correlated. Even though there is no statistically significant correlation between diet and gastritis, teenagers who suffer from gastritis are more likely to eat poorly. In order to lower the incidence of gastritis in teenagers, this study highlights the need of stress management and instruction on appropriate eating habits. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study highlights the importance of psychological factors, particularly stress, in the occurrence of gastritis in adolescents, which has rarely been the main focus in similar studies. In addition, the use of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-42) to measure stress in the context of adolescent gastritis provides a more quantitative approach than previous studies

Exploring the potential crimes and legal liability of artificial intelligence within the framework of Indonesian criminal law
Background: This research examines the potential criminal offenses that can be committed by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the implications of criminal law liability for them in the context of Indonesian law. AI, which is increasingly developing with its autonomous capabilities, has the potential to result in new criminal offenses that have not been fully anticipated by the existing legal system. Potential AI crimes, such as deepfakes and criminal offenses by autonomous vehicles, represent a significant threat to public safety and privacy. While some developed countries have begun to regulate the use of AI, Indonesia does not yet have specific regulations governing AI and its potential threats. Method: This research uses a juridical-normative method with conceptual, case, and statutory approaches, to analyze the concept of criminal liability in AI crimes. Findings: By considering legal doctrines, this research proposes that responsibility for the actions of AI, which cannot yet be considered an independent legal subject, should be transferred to humans as developers or users through the doctrines of in loco parentis and Vicarious Liability. Through this approach, AI is treated as a human-controlled tool, so legal liability remains with the entity that has direct control. Conclusion: This study expects proactive steps from the Indonesian government to develop clear regulations on AI, to ensure the protection of the public from the risks posed by AI. The regulation should be able to accommodate the rapid development of technology while educating the public on the risks of AI. Novelty/Originality of this Study: This research highlights the absence of specific AI regulations in Indonesia and offers a legal framework by applying the doctrines of in loco parentis and Vicarious Liability to AI-related offenses. It provides a new perspective on assigning liability in AI crimes, ensuring that responsibility remains with human actors while addressing the legal gaps in Indonesia’s regulatory framework

Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, this study reviewed seven previous studies using the case study review method. Findings: There are different types of pediatric cancers and their treatment which leads to differences in resilience factors and processes among parents. These differences in resilience factors and processes resulted in different resilience functions achieved by the parents. Conclusion: Resilience factors are components that contribute to parents' resilience, while resilience functions are outcomes or benefits obtained after parents apply a series of resilience processes. Novelty/Originality of this article: In contrast to previous studies that emphasize individual psychological factors, this study offers a comprehensive perspective by integrating resilience factors, resilience processes, and resilience functions in the context of parents facing childhood cancer
Health promoting university programs as a strategy for reducing tuberculosis stigma and enhancing environmental
Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB or TBC) is a deadly infectious disease that surpasses HIV and malaria as the leading cause of infectious death. Indonesia ranks second in global TB cases. The main challenges in eliminating TB are stigma, social problems and low adherence to treatment due to access to services. The Health Promoting University aims to increase health awareness in universities. This study encourages the participation of the younger generation to voice TB issues in their surroundings and on social media. Method: This research uses a descriptive qualitative method, analyzing secondary data from regulations and literature and a mini survey to measure Indonesian students' understanding of Tuberculosis. Findings: The results of the research show that Indonesia has the second highest TB cases in the world, with vulnerable groups such as students exposed through droplets when sufferers cough or sneeze. Risk factors for students include fatigue from studying, smoking habits, and intense social interactions. WHO data shows that the TB death rate in Indonesia will reach 134,000 in 2022.
