The Relationship Between Peer Social Support and Academic Resilience Among First-Year Nursing Students in Jakarta
Background: First-year university students often face complex adaptation challenges in higher education, including academic pressure, differing teaching methods, and demands for independence. The ability to persist through such challenges is referred to as academic resilience, which may be influenced by social support from peers. Objective: The purpose of this study is to understand the relationship between peer social support and academic resilience among first-year students in the Bachelor of Nursing Program at STIKes RS Husada Jakarta. Method: The approach adopted was quantitative with a correlational descriptive design and total sampling technique, involving 114 first-semester students. The instrument used was a Likert scale questionnaire to measure both variables. Data were collected using Likert-scale questionnaires and analyzed with the Spearman Rank correlation test due to non-normal distribution. Results: The findings of the study show a significant positive relationship between peer social support and academic resilience (r = 0.459; p < 0.001). This indicates that higher levels of perceived peer support are associated with stronger academic resilience

Body Mass Index, Age, and Gender on Bone Mineral Density in the Elderly
Introduction: Osteoporosis is a chronic bone disease caused by reduced bone mass and impaired bone structure. This disease is a widespread and serious public health problem. The most common consequences of this condition are hip and vertebral fractures, which can carry a substantial risk of premature morbidity and mortality. The best strategy to overcome osteoporosis is prevention by identifying risk factors and early diagnosis. This article aims to provide an overview of the influence of body mass index (BMI), age, and gender on bone mineral density (BMD) in the elderly. Methods: This article is a literature review with a search for literature sources using the keywords bone mineral density, body mass index, age, gender, and elderly in the Google Scholar, PubMed, PMC, Researchgate, and Sciencedirect databases. The inclusion criteria are online and full-text scientific articles in the last 10 years in international journals. Results: Several studies have shown that the prevalence of osteoporosis is higher in people with low BMI, but other studies have found a decrease in BMD in obese subjects; with increasing age there is a decrease in osteoblast differentiation and activity, increased osteoclastogenesis and osteoclast activity, and increased bone resorption; females are more susceptible to osteoporosis because decreased estradiol during menopause causes a sharp increase in bone turnover and resorption. Conclusion: There are mixed findings regarding the relationship between BMI and BMD. Age is a factor that needs to be considered because a person\u27s chances of developing osteoporosis will increase with age. Females are more susceptible to osteoporosis

Logistic regression analysis showed that age (p<0.001) and bacteriological examination results (p=0.012) were significantly associated with treatment outcomes. However, gender, history of TB treatment, history of DM, and HIV status were not associated with treatment success. Conclusion: Age and bacteriological examination results (AFB/Xpert MTB) at the start of treatment contributed to the treatment success rate in pulmonary TB patients
