Abstract : The Manggarai community adheres to a patrilineal system (following the father's lineage). Sida is a relative of the wife's origin, called anak rona, while anak wina is the receiving family of the wife. The sida culture is closely related to the life of the Manggarai tribe. In the culture of sida contained values that are full of meaning. In this case series, we discuss two cases of neurotic disorders that have a Sida cultural background in the Manggarai tribe. It is very important to identify the influence of culture on mental disorders so that they can provide a more comprehensive treatment. The first patient thought about the anxiety that was felt at times. The second patient felt anxious thinking about the headache. He felt that there was something in his head like a brain tumor. It was found that people with mental disorders in the United States had a worse prognosis than those in India. This is because in the United States, people with mental disorders experience a heavier stigma. Culture have multidimensional effect on mental health. Culture can be a supporting factor or an inhibiting factor in determining the prognosis of mental disorders.

The researchers' recommendation is for the local government to provide socialization more regularly regarding information regarding the benefits, safety, halalness, AEFI effects that may arise, hoaxes about booster vaccines and the effectiveness of booster vaccines that have been tested based on clinical evidence to the public so that public confidence in booster vaccines is formed.

Abstract : Report submission to health care provider at the health center is still often late, which should be sent no later than the 5th of each month. The research objective is to analyze reporting system at the Public Health Center at the Gowa District Health Office based on input (human resources, infrastructure), process (officer knowledge, skills, abilities), and output (timeliness and completeness of data). This research is descriptive research with a qualitative approach. Data were analyzed using content analysis. This research interview was conducted with nine reporting informants, including eight officers from the health center section of the health care unit, and one employee from the Gowa District Health Office. Based on input, the number of human resources is sufficient and the necessary infrastructure facilities are laptops and networks. However, the availability of laptops is not provided by the Public Health Center. The process consists of officers already understanding the reporting system but training is not provided, and officers should have dual duties that hampered their main tasks in recording and reporting. Output includes late report submission and completeness. There is still a lack of reporting systems in the health care unit. The Gowa District Health Office should pay attention to some shortages in reporting system from input to output. It is better to provide a policy to solve those problems.

Abstract : The workload of teachers is a contributing factor to their occupational stress. It may cause depression and anxiety, which may impair the teacher's ability to carry out their daily tasks or perform well at work.

The data were collected through a structured questionnaire on socio-demographics, task responsibility, time constraints, and student attitude and analyzed using SPSS version v.26. Results: The prevalence of occupational stress was about 40.4% which was high. We found that secondary school teachers experience a moderate level of occupational stress, with a mean score ranging from 2.34 to 3.67. Prevalence of occupational among secondary teachers was associated with task responsibility, time constraints, and student attitude. Furthermore, with a p-value of less than 0.05, there is a significant difference between the prevalence of occupational stress and task responsibility, time constraints, and student attitude.

Abstract : The use of AR media helps lecturers and students in carrying out learning activities. Its use in medical education is also considered a novel concept in everyday learning. Congenital heart disease fits well in this dynamic rendered 3D world of virtual reality. This research is a quasi-experimental research design with a control group design. In the intervention group, medical students who are studying cardiovascular anatomy and congenital heart disease and will be given access to a 3D anatomy virtual reality learning tool and will allow these students to incorporate it in their everyday studies aside from routine conventional classroom sessions with their lecturers. An online survey is then disseminated to medical students to evaluate this learning method after completing the cardiovascular learning block. Virtual reality (VR) technology has been around for a while, particularly in the area of military training and simulators. But the question of whether it serves a purpose other than amusement and whether it is practical for use in education still stands. The advantage to using it as a learning method is that it is able to provide excellent anatomical information in a feasible way, and in a circumstance where traditional anatomy cadavers are scarce or inaccessible.
