https://jurnal.pkr.ac.id/index.php/JPK/article/view/1067
<p><em><span lang="EN-US">These findings suggest that improving service quality, both in terms of facilities and interactions between medical staff and patients, plays a crucial role in enhancing patient satisfaction and loyalty. This study offers practical contributions to hospital management, developing strategies to enhance service quality and maintain and improve patient satisfaction and loyalty. This study aims to analyze the effect of service quality on patient loyalty, as measured by patient satisfaction at the Dental and Oral Clinic of Mitra Kasih Hospital Cimahi. This study aims to analyze the effect of service quality on patient loyalty through patient satisfaction at the Dental and Oral Clinic of Mitra Kasih Hospital Cimahi. The research is based on a significant decline in the number of patients in recent years, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as complaints about the quality of hospital services. A quantitative approach with descriptive and verificative design was applied, involving service quality (X), patient satisfaction (Y), and patient loyalty (Z) variables. Data were collected through structured questionnaires distributed to a sample of patients and analyzed using path analysis. The results indicate that service quality has a positive and significant effect on patient satisfaction (0,875), which in turn influences patient loyalty (0,595). Patient satisfaction also influences on patient loyalty (0.733). Moreover, there is a significant indirect effect of service quality on patient loyalty through patient satisfaction as an intervening variable (1,9876). The key factors contributing to patient satisfaction include reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy, and tangible aspects of the service.</span></em></p>Nuryanti NuryantiVip ParamartaAyu Laili Rahmiyati

https://jurnal.pkr.ac.id/index.php/JPK/article/view/913
<p><em><span lang="EN-US">This cross-sectional study, conducted in five secondary schools in White Nile State, Central Sudan, aims to assess the seroprevalence of Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) among students aged 14-20 years. Utilizing a sample of 384 students, the study employs the Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) technique to detect HBV surface antigens (HBsAg). The results reveal a high prevalence rate of 49%, with significant correlations between HBV infection and factors such as gender, marital status, blood transfusion history, family history of HBV, and vaccination status. Notably, female students exhibit a higher prevalence rate (55%) compared to male students (45%). Married students show a 100% prevalence rate, indicating a strong link between marital status and HBV infection. Additionally, students with a history of blood transfusions and those with family histories of HBV are more likely to be infected. Vaccination history emerges as a critical factor, with vaccinated students displaying lower infection rates, underscoring the importance of vaccination programs. These findings emphasize the need for enhanced HBV awareness, regular screening, and vaccination campaigns to mitigate the virus's spread among young populations in similar settings, ultimately contributing to better public health outcomes</span></em></p>Eman SalimIkhwan M SaidInriati LewaIndarwati IndarwatiRabibisoa Giovanni
