Kebutuhan dasar manusia salah satunya tidur, kualitas tidur dapat dikatakan cukup apabila sesuai dengan kebutuhan masing-masing individu. Kualitas tidur yang tidak terpenuhi dapat menyebabkan gangguan dalam fisik maupun psikologis. Penanganan kasus insomnia secara farmakologis dengan pemberian obat yang mengandung efek hipnotik sedangkan terapi non farmakologis yang dengan terapi relaksasi, pencatatan waktu tidur, atau terapi akupunktur. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui efektifitas penggunaan terapi akupunktur dan aromaterapi pada mahasiswa dengan kasus insomnia. Metode penelitian dengan Experimental Pretest Postest Without Control Group Designs dengan teknik sampling total sampling berjumlah 40 responden dibagi menjadi 2 kelompok. Variabel dependen yaitu skala PSQI (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), variabel independent yaitu terapi akupunktur dan aromaterapi. Analisis data menggunakan Wilcoxon test. Hasil penelitian: Pada kelompok eksperimen dan kelompok kontrol memiliki nilai Asymp Sig (2-tailed) < 0,05 maka hipotesis diterima. Hasil penelitian terapi akupunktur dan aromaterapi efektif digunakan pada mahasiswa yang mengalami insomnia. Efek terapi akupunktur pada pasien insomnia merangsang nukleus raphe untuk mengeluarkan serotonin yang akan merelaksasikan otot sehingga akan memudahkan pasien masuk siklus tidur. Sedangkan aromaterapi menstimulasi sampai ke pusat penciuman di lobus frontalis cerebri dan diteruskan ke sistem limbik yang menjadi pusat emosi. Kesimpulan nilai skor PSQI mengalami penurunan setelah dilakukan terapi akupunktur dan aromaterapi pada responden.   Kata kunci: terapi akupunktur, aromaterapi, insomnia, skala PSQI

Background: Musculoskeletal disorder affects the musculoskeletal system’s function, which includes tendons, bursae, bones, muscles, joints, and ligaments. Acupuncture is one of the non-pharmacological alternative therapies for treating musculoskeletal disorders. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of acupuncture in reducing pain in musculoskeletal diseases. Subjects and Method: This was a meta-analysis and systematic review. The study was collected articles from PubMed, ProQuest, Science Direct, Scopus, Spinger Link, and Google Scholar databases. The inclusion criteria were full text in English language and used randomized controlled trial study design. There were 8 articles with 466 study subjects comprised in two groups, including 236 people received acupuncture therapy (intervention) and 230 people received sham acupuncture (control). The selected articles were analyzed by ReVman 5.4. Results: This study had high heterogeneity (I2= 90%; p<0.001). This study reported that acupuncture was more effective to reduce musculoskeletal pain than sham acupuncture (Mean Difference= 1.63; 95% CI= 0.89 to 2.38; p= 0.001). Conclusion: Acupuncture is more effective to reduce musculoskeletal pain than sham acupuncture. Keywords: acupuncture, musculoskeletal pain Correspondence: Kurnia Eka Putri.

Small-medium enterprises “Bintang Kertasada” is the mackerel fish crackers industry in Sumenep which generates solid and liquid waste, negatively affecting the environment. Therefore, a strategy in reducing the volume of waste produced and its impacts is the implementation of cleaner production and further determined through this present study. A method of AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process), followed by feasibility study through BEP (Break Event Point), PP (Payback Periode), B/C Ratio (Benefit-Cost Ratio), NPV (Net Present Value), and IRR (Internal Rate of Return) analysis were performed. This study demonstrated that the best alternative was processing fish skin into crackers that was attributed by the AHP score of 0.565. Furthermore, the financial feasibility analysis indicated that the production of fish scale crackers was feasible, indicated by the BEP of IDR 4,412 with 27,617 units produced, PP of 11 months, B/C ratio of 1.2, NPV of IDR 23,176,128, -, and IRR of 27.12%. Overall, the processing solid waste of fish skin into crackers was the best alternative with the most financial feasibility.AbstrakUD. Bintang Kertasada-Sumenep merupakan salah satu industri pengolahan kerupuk amplang yang menghasilkan limbah padat dan cair. Selama ini, limbah yang dihasilkan sudah ditangani secara optimal namun tidak pada limbah padat kulit ikan. Produksi Bersih merupakan salah satu strategi yang digunakan untuk mengurangi pencemaran lingkungan dengan mengurangi jumlah sumber daya dan limbah hasil samping produksi. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengetahui alternatif terbaik penerapan produksi bersih di UD. Bintang Kertasada-Sumenep dan mengetahui kelayakan finansial dari alternatif terbaik tersebut. Alternatif penerapan produksi bersih yang digunakan adalah kerupuk kulit ikan, keripik kulit ikan crispy, kulit ikan goreng berbalut telur asin, minyak kult ikan, gelatin dan lem kulit ikan. Penentuan alternatif terbaik dilakukan dengan metode AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process). Parameter kelayakan finansial menggunakan perhitungan BEP (Break Event Point), PP (Payback Periode), B/C Ratio (Benefit Cost Ratio), NPV (Net Present Value), dan IRR (Internal Rate of Return). Hasil Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa alternatif terbaik yakni mengolah limbah padat kulit ikan menjadi kerupuk dengan nilai bobot sebesar 0,565. Analisis Kelayakan finansial menunjukkan bahwa produksi kerupuk kulit ikan layak untuk dilakukan dengan perolehan BEP harga sebesar Rp. 4.412, BEP produksi sebanyak 27.617 kemasan, PP selama 11 bulan, B/C Ratio 1,2, NPV sebesar Rp 23.176.128, dan IRR sebesar 27,12%.

Background:A medical records personnel is in charge of managing patient health files in a facility. They provide efficient health records service to patients, medical and nursing staff. They organise, update and store records in either paper-based documents or electronic records. However, it is indicated that many medical recorders in Indonesia have not been able to fulfill one of the activities required by professional organizations, namely writing and publishing scientific papers. This study aimed to examine the effect of motivation on the intention to participate in the scientific publications among medical record staff. Subjects and Method: A cross sectional study. A number of 100 medical record staffs who work at health facilities was selected for this study. The dependent variable was intention to participate in the scientific publication. The independent variable was motivation. The data were collected by electronic questionnaire and analyzed by Chi square. Results: Strong motivation was positively associated with intention to participate in the scientific publications among medical record staff (OR= 10.60; 95% CI= 2.36 to 4.48; p= 0.029). Conclusion:Strong motivation is positively associated with intention to participate in the scientific publications among medical record staff.
