    This study focuses on stylistic analysis in two novels by Ahmad Tohari: Ronggeng Dukuh Paruk and Bekisar Merah. These two novels were chosen because of Tohari's distinctive depiction of rural social realities, poverty, and the struggles of life, expressed through his unique style. The study of style in these two novels is crucial to uncovering how Ahmad Tohari utilizes the power of language to construct a fictional world rich with meaning and value. In addition to strengthening appreciation for modern Indonesian literature, this research is also beneficial for developing literature learning in schools, particularly in developing students' critical thinking skills and empathy for social realities through the interpretation of literary language. This study aims to identify, classify, and analyze the style used by the author in the novels Ronggeng Dukuh Paruk and Bekisar Merah, relating to symbolism, sociocultural realities, and the elements that shape the stories. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with a stylistic approach. Data were obtained through in-depth reading of the novel texts, followed by recording and categorizing stylistic elements. Data analysis was conducted by interpreting how these language choices shape meaning, create atmosphere, and deepen characterization. The theoretical framework used refers to stylistic concepts developed by experts, which distinguish between everyday language and literary language. The results of the study indicate that Ahmad Tohari utilizes a rich and nuanced style. In Ronggeng Dukuh Paruk, there is a strong use of local diction (Banyumasan dialect), personification that brings nature to life, and sharp imagery to depict poverty and suffering. The language used often feels poetic and flowing, reflecting local wisdom and tradition. Meanwhile, in Bekisar Merah, the style tends to be more reflective and psychological. The diction chosen emphasizes descriptions of the characters' inner states, with metaphors and similes depicting internal conflicts. The conclusion of this study confirms that style in Ahmad Tohari's works functions not merely as ornamentation, but as an integral element that builds the narrative, reinforces the theme, and reflects the author's worldview on social reality.   &nbsp

    The history of modern Indonesian literature development has presented literary pieces linked to social, cultural, and historical facts. It is owing to the fact that the literary pieces cannot be separated from daily lives though the author has transcended his or her social, cultural, and historical facts. Hence, the literary pieces may contain facts despite its fictional status. One of the Indonesian literary pieces representing close relation between social, cultural, and historical facts in the real world and fiction referring to the author�s imaginative world is Ronggeng Dukuh Paruk by Ahmad Tohari.

    Prevalence of low serum testosterone levels among men with type 2 diabetes mellitus attending two outpatient diabetes clinics in Durban, South Africa.

    Masters Degree. University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban.Background: Studies showing a high prevalence of low serum testosterone in men with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are well documented but evidence from sub-Saharan Africa is scanty. Aim: To determine the prevalence and associated risk factors of low serum testosterone and the prevalence of androgen deficiency symptoms in South African men with T2DM. Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was performed among men with T2DM attending two outpatient adult diabetes clinics in KwaZulu-Natal. Androgen deficiency symptoms were assessed using the Ageing Male’s Symptom Scale (AMS) questionnaire and direct enquiry. Serum total testosterone (TT), sex-hormone binding globulin (SHBG), luteinising hormone (LH), HbA1c, fructosamine, serum lipids were measured and free-testosterone (FT) was calculated. TT, SHBG and FT levels were measured in control subjects with no history of diabetes. Results: The study included 148 men with T2DM (Study Group) and 50 control subjects (Control Group). The mean age of the control group was 43.9 ± 10.7 years and the mean BMI was 27.11 ± 4.2 kg/m2. In the study group, the majority were African (Black) (58.7%); Indians (39.2%) and Whites (2.1%) constituted the remainder. Mean age was 57.5 ± 11.2 years; mean duration of diabetes 11.4 ± 8.9 years; mean HbA1c was 8.6 ± 1.9%. Metabolic syndrome was found in 86.4% (n:127) of the Study group. Mean TT, SHBG, FT and median LH (IQR) in the Study group were within normal range (14.5 ± 5.8 nmol/l, 40.7 ± 20.3 nmol/l, 265.9 ± 90.4 pmol/l and 5.3 [3.8-7.3] IU/l, respectively). However, mean serum TT and FT was lower in the Study group than Control subjects (14.5 ± 5.8 vs. 18.8 ± 7.2 nmol/l, p <0.001 and 265.9 ± 90.4 vs. 351.7 ± 127.3 pmol/l, p<0.001). The prevalence of LSTT and LSFT was 35.8% and 16.2%, respectively. Prevalence of LSFT increased with age and higher body mass index (BMI) categories with the highest rate noted in >40 kg/m2 BMI category (50%). In multivariate analysis, LSFT was significantly associated with age [OR 1.05 (95% CI 1.02-1.218), p=0.043] and waist circumference (WC) [OR 1.033 (95% CI 0.999- 1.068), p=0.059]. LSTT was associated with BMI only [OR 1.138 (95%CI 1.063- 1.218), p<0.0001]. TT correlated inversely with BMI, WC and the number of metabolic syndrome criteria. FT correlated inversely with BMI, WC and WHR. For both FT and TT, no significant correlation was observed with HbA1c. The prevalence of androgen deficiency symptoms using AMS score was 74.5%. The prevalence of any androgen deficiency symptom on direct enquiry was 68.9%. The AMS score correlated poorly with LSTT or LSFT and was not superior to direct enquiry. Conclusion: In this group of predominantly African and Indian men with T2DM from KwaZulu-Natal, there was a high prevalence of LSTT and LSFT. Serum TT and FT was lower in men with T2DM compared to control subjects. Waist circumference was a significant risk factor associated with LSFT while LSTT was associated with higher BMI and older age. There was a high prevalence of androgen deficiency symptoms using both the AMS score and on direct enquiry. The AMS score was a poor predictor of low testosterone and was not superior to direct enquiry. More research is required locally and from other sub-Saharan African countries before routine screening can be recommended

    How Banyumas people “describe" G30S/PKI in the novel Ronggeng Dhukuh Paruk

    The novel RDP came out in 1982, when the new order regime was still firmly established. One of the important criticisms in the work was the "incorrect" handling of communism by the government at that time following the eruption of the G30S/PKI history. The author of the novel tries to bring a different view of the issue. This paper tries to present how the original Banyumas personified the political turmoil-how the laypeople interpreted the events that had consumed them as victims, or the sacrificed. Based on the recurrent reading of the Indonesian-language RDP novel and Javanese language Banyumasan, the authors firmly state that the people of Dukuh Paruk are merely victims of the outside world. People of the hamlet have no idea what they are doing, other than that they want to perpetuate the tradition they are proud of, ronggeng. Nor do they blame or think that there are people outside of those who have committed crimes against them. The disaster that befall them is none other due to their mistakes do not run the rituals that must be done before performances ronggeng. Their elders also realized that the pageblug had been signaled by the appearance of the latitude of the cubes (comets), and they had ignored the cue. Thus, pageblug should be accepted. Against the innocence of clean thought, the author asserts that something is wrong with them, systematically practiced by the regime at that time. He agreed that the coup was false; but the way in which the state deals with such problems is also unjustifiable. The state has clearly punished many Indonesians without trial, and killed thousands of innocent people
