This research is analytic observational with a cross-sectional approach. The research was conducted on active students of the Medical Study Program, Muhammadiyah Palembang University, with 416 respondents. Primary data collection was taken using a questionnaire with a Nordic Body Map score. The analysis technique used the Chi-Square test. The results showed that the respondents had a high duration of laptop use (48.8%), with a not good position (42.3%).Most musculoskeletal disorders were felt in the neck (75.5%). There was a correlation between the position of using a laptop and musculoskeletal disorders (p 0.652). However, there was no correlation between the duration of laptop use and musculoskeletal disorders (p 0.002). It can be concluded that the position of using a laptop that is not ergonomic caused musculoskeletal disorders.

Orangtua yang mempunyai anak dengan kebutuhan khusus, seperti tunagrahita (retardasi mental), tentunya dituntut untuk selalu menyediakan segala fasilitas yang dibutuhkan anak dan tidak sedikit diantara mereka yang menemukan berbagai masalah dalam proses pengasuhan anak. Apabila masalah tersebut tidak dapat diatasi oleh orangtua dengan baik, maka akan muncul stres sebagai reaksi fisik dan psikis terhadap tuntutan tersebut, hal ini disebut dengan parenting stress. Selain itu kondisi psikologis mempengaruhi pola asuh yang diterapkan oleh orangtua. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui gambaran parenting stress dan pola asuh serta hubungan antara pola asuh dan parenting stress pada orangtua anak tunagrahita di Yayasan Pembinaan Anak Cacat (YPAC) Palembang. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian analitik observasional dengan pendekatan cross-sectional (sekat lintang) meliputi semua orangtua yang memiliki anak tunagrahita di YPAC Palembang. Pengambilan sampel dengan teknik total sampling yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi sehingga didapatkan jumlah sampel sebanyak 44 responden. Penelitian ini menggunakan adaptasi Parenting Stress Scale (PSS) untuk menggambarkan tingkat stres pada orangtua dan kuesioner pola asuh untuk menentukan tipe pola asuh yang diterapkan. Hasil penelitian didapatkan orangtua yang menderita stres sedang sebanyak 33 orang (75%), stres ringan sebanyak 11 orang (25%) dan tidak ada orangtua yang mengalami stres berat. Sebanyak 42 orang (95,5%) menerapkan pola asuh demokratif, 2 orang (4,5%) menerapkan pola asuh permitif dan tidak ditemukan orangtua yang menerapkan pola asuh otoriter. Hasil uji statistik ditemukan tidak ada hubungan antara pola asuh dan parenting stress orangtua (p=1,00).

Kulit merupakan bagian yang paling sering terkena jejas sehingga dapat menimbulkan luka. Povidone iodine merupakan salah satu obat kimiawi yang paling sering digunakan. Secara tradisional luka dapat disembuhkan dengan mengoleskan gel lidah buaya. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui perbandingan pemberian gel lidah buaya dengan povidone iodine dalam proses penyembuhan luka iris pada mencit. Hewan uji yang digunakan sebanyak 24 mencit yang dibuat luka iris (vulnus scissum) dan dibagi dalam 4 kelompok, kelompok I (gel lidah buaya produk 1), kelompok II (gel lidah buaya produk 2), kelompok III (povidone iodine) dan kelompok IV (akuades). Pengamatan dilakukan secara makroskopis terhadap kondisi luka dan panjang luka sampai luka sembuh sempurna. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa rerata waktu penyembuhan yang dibutuhkan kelompok I selama 3,6 hari, kelompok II 3,8 hari, kelompok III 6,6 hari, dan kelompok IV 7,8 hari. Uji ANOVA mendapatkan hasil p<0.05 yang menunjukkan ada perbedaan waktu penyembuhan luka iris yang bermakna antarkelompok dalam. Uji post hoc mendapatkan hasil p<0,05 yang menunjukkan bahwa terdapat perbedaan antara kelompok gel lidah buaya dengan kelompok povidone iodine dan akuades. Dari hasil ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa sediaan gel lidah buaya (Aloe vera L.) dalam penelitian terbukti lebih baik dalam mempercepat proses penyembuhan luka iris dibandingkan povidone iodine
