The Impact of Digital Inclusive Finance on Resident Income under the Background of Rural Revitalization: Evidence from County-level Data in the Wuling Mountain Area
Authors: Zhang Shiqi
Published: July 2024

As a continuation and development of traditional inclusive finance, digital inclusive finance can effectively improve the efficiency of traditional financial services and promote income growth for rural residents in county-level areas. Based on panel data from 71 counties and cities in the Wuling Mountain area from 2014 to 2018, a fixed effects model and an intermediary effects model were comprehensively used, and heterogeneity analysis was conducted to test the impact mechanism and differences of digital inclusive finance on new urbanization. The research results indicate that digital inclusive finance can promote the increase of income for farmers in poverty-stricken counties, but there is regional heterogeneity. Regions with lower dependence on county-level fiscal expenditure enjoy more of the digital financial technology dividend, while regions with higher dependence on county-level fiscal expenditure are not significantly affected by the digital financial policy dividend. In addition, different dimensions of digital inclusive finance also show a positive impact on increasing farmers' income. Further research has found that urbanization is an important intermediary channel for digital inclusive finance to affect the income increase of farmers in the Wuling Mountain area.

Tangent Bundle on Three Dimension Small Cover
Authors: Huang Juhui
Published: July 2024

Small covers arising from 3-dimensional simple polytopes. The geometry of the tangent bundle of a three dimension small cover is an old topic. The theory is of great importance in mathematics and physics. It is an interesting question to understand whether tangential bundles exist on the 3-dimensional small cover. In this paper a three dimension small cover on the tangent bundle is defined by using a spin structure on the compact and oriented smooth three manifold. The SO(3) is diffeornorphic to the unit tangent bundle of the two-sphere. Since the SO(3) is diffeornorphic to RP3. The line bundle over RP3 is just trivial bundle. We use fiber bundle pullbacks measures prove that 3-dimensional small cover has a trivial tangent bundle. To the knowledge of the author of this paper, we only considered the special case on small cover and effectively connected Clifford algebras, spin groups, and small cover. Note that the general case is much more complicated. Some results in the general case were not proved.

Authors: Guo Zhaogui , Yang Qi , Liu Yixian , Yang Xiucui
Published: July 2024

Female employees in today's hotel industry account for more than 60%, but the job needs and satisfaction of female employees have received significantly less attention. In order to explore the current situation of hotel female employee satisfaction and its influencing factors, based on the two-factor theory, in-depth interviews were conducted with female employees of Zhaotong City Hotel. More than half of the female employees are satisfied with the hotel, and the main reasons are: firstly, female employees enjoy the sense of achievement and value gained through helping others in the hotel work; secondly, the harmonious interpersonal relationship between female employees and their colleagues or customers in the hotel can bring them emotional value and thus a sense of satisfaction. However, the low salary and lower social status of hotel work are the main reasons for female employees' dissatisfaction. It is found that the age and length of service of female employees have an effect on satisfaction, and that different age stages and different lengths of service have different needs at work. The satisfaction of female employees is positively correlated with the increase of age, and the older the age, the higher the satisfaction. Women with less than one year of service care more about promotion space, and women with more than five years of service care more about a comfortable working environment. Based on this, suggestions are targeted to improve the satisfaction of female employees in hotels, so as to promote the sound development of hotels.

HYBRID WARFARE AND THE IMPORTANCE OF ELECTIONS IN GEOPOLITICS: NORTH MACEDONIA AS A PART OF THE WEST OR RETURNING TO THE SPHERE OF RUSSIA AND SERBIA
Authors: Kuçi Gurakuç
Published: July 2024

Electoral processes are gaining increasing importance on the geopolitical stage, becoming a major force in shaping politics and international relations. Observing elections in countries such as the USA, Germany, and Italy, confirms that ideological changes within political parties are significantly impacting geopolitical dynamics (i.e., electoral politics as a form of geopolitics). These changes are evident in the use of electoral processes by autocratic regimes such as Russia and Serbia to influence fragile democracies, including North Macedonia and Montenegro. The hybrid warfare strategies of these regimes aim to influence the outcome of elections and manipulate political structures in their favor. In the Western Balkans, these interventions pose challenges for the integrity of these countries. In this paper, we described, explained, analyzed, and assessed the influence of Russia and Serbia in North Macedonia and the potential consequences, including the presidential and parliamentary elections in this year. This analysis underscores the importance of understanding the dynamics of electoral politics, including socio- economic development, ethnic tensions, and long-term solutions for the stability and continued development of the country in a changed international scene.

Cet article cherche à étudier la manière dont les récits filmiques contemporains fabulent avec des animaux « augmentés », c’est-à-dire résultant d’une fabrication humaine volontaire. Nous cherchons d’abord à décrire ces formes animales contemporaines à partir de trois exemples : Okja (Bong Joon-ho, 2017), Jurassic World (Colin Trevorrow, 2015), et « Hated in the Nation » (James Hawes, 2016), puis nous nous penchons sur les fonctions qui leur sont attribuées. Cela nous conduit enfin à interroger la place laissée à une authentique existence animale dans ces fables, en nous appuyant sur deux exemples supplémentaires : Les Gardiens de la galaxie vol. 3 (James Gunn, 2023) et Eo (Jerzy Skolimowski, 2022).

Published: July 2024

In response to the challenge posed by antimicrobial resistance and the demand for innovative anticancer drugs, the aim of this study was to examine the potential source of natural antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer compounds from purple flowers of Bougainvillea glabra. The dried purple flower of B. glabra was sequentially extracted with hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol, and water. The extracts were used for investigating antioxidants, antimicrobial activity, anticancer properties, and phytochemical composition. The methanol extraction exhibited the highest total phenolic content and in vitro antioxidant activity. The hexane and ethyl acetate extracts exhibited antimicrobial activity against a broad range of microorganisms in both American type of culture collection (ATCC) and clinical strains, while the methanol extract displayed a narrower antimicrobial profile that implied the promise of B. glabra as a developmental reservoir of specific antimicrobial agents. Notably, the hexane extract demonstrated the most promising anticancer activity against various cancer cell lines, including lung cancer (A549), colon cancer (HT-29), breast cancer (MCF-7), and bile duct cancer (KKU-213A). In conclusion, this study reveals the pharmaceutical potential of crude extracts from B. glabra flowers; thereby, paving the way for future exploration of these compounds within the drug development industry.
Day labourers in Munich’s train station district – from exploitation to human trafficking and forced labour? Pracownicy jednodniowi w rejonie dworca kolejowego w Monachium – pomiędzy wykorzystaniem a handlem ludźmi i pracą przymusową?
Authors: Rita Haverkamp
Published: July 2024

In the beginning of the 21st century, a day labourer market was established in the southern main station district of Munich. In August 2013, the market aroused negative public attention due to a petition from local businesspeople. Since then, the day labourers have been subject to surveillance and banishment. In 2019, a significant amendment to the Illegal Employment Act made day labourer markets illegal. It is known that day labourers offer their own labour to employers, who frequently deprive them of the agreed wage. This practice poses the question of whether these exploitative working conditions amount to human trafficking, forced labour, or labour exploitation. This question is explored in a case study analysis based on talks with day labourers and interviews with different actors in Munich’s train station district.
Rethinking populism and its threats and possibilities
Authors: Hogg Russell
Published: July 2024

Resurgent populism – with crime as a core theme - is depicted as a dangerous perversion of liberal democracy. But by avoiding a definition of populism, critics tend to simply conflate populism with contemporary right-wing authoritarianism. Academic analysis, including criminological, is not free of such tendencies. After a brief consideration of criminology’s engagement with penal populism and the recent spread of a more far-reaching authoritarian political populism, the article argues for the need to more carefully conceptualise populism. Theoretical clarity is needed for assessing the character of contemporary populism; for grasping its drivers in, for example, neo-liberal globalization and what Crouch calls “post democracy”; and for discerning its possible future trajectories, progressive as well as regressive. It is also argued that simple denunciations of populism often reflect a complacent liberal mentality that contributes to political disaffection fuelling populist movements, and overlooks legitimate grievances, including the (often criminal) failings of liberal institutions. Rather than being a political aberration, populism, it is argued, should be seen as a “normal” dimension of democratic politics with implications for criminal policy (as well as politics at large).

Accurate measurement of length is an important foundation for ensuring the quality of advanced manufacturing equipment. In recent years, absolute ranging technology represented by frequency scanning interferometry (FSI) has gradually become a widely used ranging method in the manufacturing industry due to its advantages of high precision, high flexibility, and no range ambiguity. To address the repeatability and accuracy of length reference calibration in FSI absolute ranging, this paper proposes a method of accurately calibrating length reference based on bidirectional absorption spectrum feature fusion and proportional coefficient calibration, by using gas absorption spectroscopy to calibrate the delayed long fiber path length as a length reference in the distance measurement system online, and by using weighted linear least squares method to solve the differences in uncertainty among different absorption spectrum peaks. To address the problem of low repeatability in optical fiber path length calibration by using absorption spectroscopy, a method of utilizing bidirectional absorption spectrum feature fusion is proposed, thereby improving the precision of optical fiber path length calibration. To address the issue of insufficient accuracy in absolute optical frequency of absorption spectrum peaks, a calibration method by using a single absorption spectrum proportional coefficient is proposed. Compared with the idea of calibrating the optical frequency of each peak one by one, this method is simple and direct, thus improving the accuracy of fiber path length calibration. To verify the effectiveness of the above methods, the experiments on repeated precision evaluation, proportional coefficient calibration, and accuracy comparison are conducted separately. The experimental results show that the standard deviation for calibrating the optical path length of 164 m fiber is 10–30 μm. Under the conditions of system temperature rise and temperature stability, the distance measurement standard deviations are not greater than 5 μm in the measurement ranges of 0–10 m and 0–15 m, and the distance comparison residuals are not greater than ±4 μm, demonstrating the good distance measurement performance of the system. In the future, we will carry out thermal insulation and temperature control of the gas absorption chamber and the entire ranging optical path, and study the stability of the spectral proportionality coefficient and absorption peaks while controlling external environmental factors.

Shape changes of epithelia during animal development, such as convergent extension, are achieved through concerted mechanical activity of individual cells. While much is known about the corresponding large scale tissue flow and its genetic drivers, fundamental questions regarding local control of contractile activity on cellular scale and its embryo-scale coordination remain open. To address these questions, we develop a quantitative, model-based analysis framework to relate cell geometry to local tension in recently obtained timelapse imaging data of gastrulating
Drosophila
embryos. This analysis provides a systematic decomposition of cell shape changes and T1-rearrangements into internally driven, active, and externally driven, passive, contributions. Our analysis provides evidence that germ band extension is driven by active T1 processes that self-organize through positive feedback acting on tensions. More generally, our findings suggest that epithelial convergent extension results from controlled transformation of internal force balance geometry which combines the effects of bottom-up local self-organization with the top-down, embryo-scale regulation by gene expression.

Despite exciting developments in cancer immunotherapy, its broad application is limited by the paucity of targetable antigens on the tumor cell surface. As an intrinsic cellular pathway, nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) conceals neoantigens through the destruction of the RNA products from genes harboring truncating mutations. We developed and conducted a high throughput screen, based on the ratiometric analysis of transcripts, to identify critical mediators of NMD. This screen implicated disruption of kinase SMG1’s phosphorylation of UPF1 as a potential disruptor of NMD. This led us to design a novel SMG1 inhibitor, KVS0001, that elevates the expression of transcripts and proteins resulting from truncating mutations
in vivo
and
in vitro
. Most importantly, KVS0001 concomitantly increased the presentation of immune-targetable HLA class I-associated peptides from NMD-downregulated proteins on the surface of cancer cells. KVS0001 provides new opportunities for studying NMD and the diseases in which NMD plays a role, including cancer and inherited diseases.

The prefrontal-cortex basal ganglia working memory (PBWM) model (Hazy et al., 2007; O’Reilly & Frank, 2006) proposes that working memory representations are updated via a striatal gating mechanism but lacks conclusive empirical support for the postulated subcortical involvement. A growing body of research suggests that dopamine is also involved in working memory updating (Braver & Cohen, 2000; Cools & D’Esposito, 2011; D’Ardenne et al., 2012; Jongkees, 2020). In this study, we investigated subcortical–in particular, possible dopaminergic–involvement in working memory updating subprocesses using the reference-back task and ultra-high field 7 Tesla fMRI. Using a scanning protocol optimized for BOLD-sensitivity in the subcortex, we found no evidence of subcortical activation during working memory gate opening, which challenges the PBWM model’s striatal gating mechanism. However, during gate closing, subcortical activation was observed. Furthermore, a ready-to-update mode demonstrated large-spread subcortical activation, including basal ganglia nuclei, suggesting that the basal ganglia are engaged in general updating processes rather than specifically controlling the working memory gate. Evidence for activity in dopaminergic midbrain regions was also observed in both contrasts. Also, substituting new information into working memory elicited activation in dopamine-producing midbrain regions along with the striatum, thalamus, and prefrontal cortex, indicating engagement of the basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical loop possibly driven by dopaminergic activity. These findings expand our understanding of subcortical regions involved in working memory updating, providing additional insights into the role of the dopaminergic midbrain.
Transdiagnostic compulsivity is associated with reduced reminder setting, only partially attributable to overconfidence

In the current study, we explored the behavioural and cognitive correlates of the transdiagnostic trait ‘compulsive behaviour and intrusive thought’ (CIT). CIT is associated with impaired metacognition, which in turn has been associated with cognitive offloading behaviours such as external reminder-setting that play a key role in fulfilling cognitive goals. In an online study (N=600) we investigated individual differences in compulsivity, metacognition, and external reminder-usage. Compulsive individuals had reduced preference for external reminders. This was partially, but not fully, attributable to their relative overconfidence. In contrast to previous studies, we found no evidence for an impaired confidence-action link: compulsive individuals used their metacognition to guide offloading just as much as their non-compulsive counterparts. Given the compensatory nature of cognitive offloading, our findings imply that compulsive individuals are at increased risk of inadequate external memory support. Along with transdiagnostic variation in the general population, this finding could also have implications for clinical conditions, such as OCD.
