Tuberculosis (TB) treatment success in primary care is closely linked to sustained medication adherence. This cross-sectional study assessed the association between adherence to anti-tuberculosis drugs and TB treatment success at Karya Wanita Primary Health Center, Pekanbaru, Indonesia, using routine TB programme records (2024–2025). Eligible records with complete adherence and outcome documentation were included (n = 75). Treatment success was defined as cured or treatment completed, whereas unsuccessful outcomes included failure, discontinuation, or death. Overall, 63 patients (84.0%) were adherent and 62 (82.7%) achieved treatment success. Treatment success was substantially higher among adherent than non-adherent patients (96.8% vs 8.3%), with a significant association by Fisher’s exact test (p 0.001). Adherence was associated with a markedly higher probability of treatment success (RR = 11.62; 95% CI: 1.78–75.92). Strengthening DOTS-aligned adherence support through treatment supporters (PMO), early counselling, reminders, and active tracing may improve outcomes.

Based on article (Shelley, 2010) Human Trafficking is the act of recruiting, transporting, transferring, harboring, or receiving individuals through force, fraud, or corcecion for the purpose of exploiting them profit. This exploitation may include forced labor, sexual slavery, or other forms of commercial sexual exploitation. It is considered a serious violation of human rights and includes a form of modern slavery, a crime against humanity. Human trafficking is a global threat that requires serious attention and real action. Factors such as poverty, political instability, and lack of public awareness make human trafficking increasingly difficult to eradicate. Therefore, there is a need for international cooperation, government, and community cooperation to prevent, protect, and recover victims of human trafficking. Human trafficking is a serious crime that continues to grow, including in Cambodia, which is vulnerable due to geographical and socioeconomic factors. This study aims to analyze the handling of human trafficking cases in Cambodia from the perspective of international legal policy. Sexual exploitation, forced labor, and organ trafficking are the main forms of this crime. Although Cambodia has adopted various laws, its implementation is still hampered by limited resources, corruption, and weak cooperation between countries. International community support such as the Palermo Protocol has helped, but law enforcement remains inconsistent. This study emphasizes the importance of stricter law enforcement and an adequate rehabilitation system for victims. Collaboration between governments and NGOs is urgently needed to create effective solutions and better protection for victims of human trafficking.

Introduction: The aging process in older adults leads to various physiological changes, including a decline in nervous system function that may increase the risk of developing dementia. Dementia is a neurodegenerative syndrome characterized by decreased cognitive functions such as memory, orientation, attention, and thinking ability, which negatively affect independence and quality of life in older adults. This condition also increases the risk of mobility impairment and dependency in daily activities. Therefore, effective non-pharmacological interventions are needed to maintain and improve cognitive function. One such method is Square Stepping Exercise, a structured stepping-pattern-based physical exercise initially developed to improve balance in older adults, which has also been shown to stimulate cognitive function through enhanced concentration, memory, and motor coordination. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of Square Stepping Exercise in improving cognitive function in older adults with dementia. Methods: This study employed a case study design involving one older adult with dementia and moderate cognitive impairment. The Square Stepping Exercise intervention was administered in 12 therapy sessions with a frequency of three times per week. Cognitive function was measured using the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) before and after the intervention. Results: After 12 sessions of Square Stepping Exercise intervention, an improvement in cognitive function was observed as measured by the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE). The MMSE score increased from 13 (moderate cognitive impairment) before the intervention to 23 (mild cognitive impairment) after the intervention. Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, the implementation of Square Stepping Exercise for 12 therapy sessions demonstrated an improvement in cognitive function in older adults with dementia, as indicated by an increase in MMSE scores from the moderate cognitive impairment category to the mild cognitive impairment category. These findings suggest that Square Stepping Exercise has the potential to be used as a non-pharmacological intervention to improve cognitive function in older adults with dementia

Chronic pain represents a major global health burden and often remains resistant to conventional pharmacological treatment, prompting the exploration of alternative therapeutic strategies. Electroencephalographic (EEG) neurofeedback has emerged as a non-invasive neuromodulatory intervention that enables patients to self-regulate brain activity and potentially alleviate persistent pain symptoms. This systematic review addresses the research problem of inconsistent evidence regarding the clinical efficacy and underlying mechanisms of EEG-based neurofeedback for chronic pain management in adults. A comprehensive analysis of 80 studies involving adults with chronic pain lasting at least three months was conducted, examining neurofeedback protocols, clinical pain outcomes, neurophysiological changes, secondary benefits, and methodological quality. Findings revealed heterogeneous results, with several studies reporting statistically significant and clinically meaningful pain reduction, particularly in conditions such as chemotherapy-induced neuropathy, fibromyalgia, and chronic back pain. Observed neurophysiological changes, including increased alpha power and modified connectivity in pain-related brain regions, were sometimes associated with clinical improvement, alongside reported benefits in sleep quality, mood, and overall well-being. However, evidence from sham-controlled randomized trials showed no significant differences between intervention and control groups, highlighting methodological limitations and challenges in blinding procedures. The review concludes that EEG neurofeedback is a safe and feasible intervention with potential therapeutic value for chronic pain, although current evidence remains inconsistent. The novelty of this study lies in its integrative evaluation of clinical outcomes, neurophysiological mechanisms, and protocol-specific effects, while emphasizing the need for personalized approaches, biomarker identification, and rigorous experimental designs to clarify efficacy and optimize treatment implementation.
