Published: November 2024

Corruption in the public sector remains a major obstacle to regional development, threatening the effectiveness of financial management and public services. Gaps in financial supervision and management that are not transparent are the cause of fraud in the use of the budget. The agency theory states that corruption is caused by a conflict of interest between the community as the principal and the government as an agent, with the external auditor as a supervisor to prevent irregularities. The focus of this research is to find out the relationship between corruption in local governments and capital expenditure, local own revenue, audit opinions, and audit findings. This study uses quantitative methods and uses secondary data. The sample consistSed of 250 local governments (districts/cities/provinces) in Indonesia during 2020-2022. The analyst method uses SPSS 27 with multiple linear regression method. The test results showed that capital expenditure had no effect on corruption, local own revenue and audit findings had a positive effect on corruption, and audit opinions had nothing to do with corruption in local governments.

Published: November 2024

Security becomes necessary factor nowadays. The crime gang improves their technology to perform their operation along with the development of technology. Hence, technology of security should be more improved to protect the crime works. We have decided to make a security project. In this project we have used laser light for security purpose. We know laser light goes through long distance. When any person or object passes through the laser line, the security alarm will start to ring. There are two parts of the system. One is transmitter and other is receiver. The transmitter side consists of a pair of dry cell batteries and an on-off switch. The receiver side, there is a focusing LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) sensor to sense the laser ray. It is connected with the main driver circuit which has two parts. One is signal of discontinuity ray and other is alarm circuit. When anybody passes through the ray, the main circuit sense the discontinuity and turn on the alarm circuit. The alarm will be ringing until the off button is pressed. There are two methods of ringing. One is the duration of ringing depends on preset timer and another is reset manually. Any option can be set by DPDT switch. We have used second method for our project. Mirrors are attached at every corner to reflect the ray coming from the laser. The reflected ray coming from the last mirror will hit the LDR directly. The system has built with low cost and high performance. The power consumption of the system is very low.

The Psychological Horror & Psychoanalysis
Authors: LIMANTORO Gray Hansen , ATMA Yeyen Dwi
Published: November 2024

The horror genre is widely appreciated for its ability to challenge audiences through fear, offering suspense and excitement. Among its subgenres, psychological horror stands out for its unique focus on the mind, emotions, and internal struggles, rather than relying on direct confrontations with physical monsters or external threats. This subgenre delves into the complexities of the human psyche, often depicting mental illness and psychological tension to evoke fear. Unlike traditional horror, psychological horror builds suspense through atmosphere, character development, and the gradual unraveling of the protagonist's mental state, making it a subtler yet more unsettling form of horror. A literature review highlights how psychological horror has significantly shaped the portrayal of mental illness, offering deeper, more introspective representations of psychological disorders. The findings indicate that this subgenre's strength lies in its ability to present fear from a different perspective, often leaving much to the imagination of the audience, which intensifies the sense of dread. By focusing on internal fears and psychological conflicts, psychological horror provides a distinctive narrative experience, setting it apart from other horror subgenres that rely on physical confrontations. This makes it a compelling form of storytelling that resonates deeply with audiences, tapping into their subconscious fears and emotions

El 1 de agosto de 2022 se ha de producir la derogación del vigente Reglamento (CE) n.º 2201/2003 o Bruselas II bis, relativo a la competencia, el reconocimiento y la ejecución de resoluciones judiciales en materia matrimonial y de responsabilidad parental, por el Reglamento (UE) 2019/1111, relativo a la competencia, el reconocimiento y la ejecución de resoluciones en materia matrimonial y de responsabilidad parental, y sobre la sustracción internacional de menores, texto refundido o Recast. La presente contribución se plantea un doble objetivo: primero, constatar el alcance práctico de las modificaciones introducidas por el texto refundido en el sistema de competencia judicial internacional y eficacia de resoluciones transfronterizas en la UE; segundo, comprobar si este fenómeno de evolución legislativa va más allá y es parte de un cambio más profundo de lo que, en principio, parece sugerir una simple refundición legislativa, en la concepción del divorcio, en cuanto que principal institución jurídica reguladora de las crisis matrimoniales, que iría del "divorcio sanción" al "divorcio solución". Dichas cuestiones se circunscriben al ámbito material de la competencia judicial y la eficacia de resoluciones en los casos de crisis matrimoniales, puesto que las materias relativas al sector del derecho aplicable o de la responsabilidad parental y el secuestro internacional de menores se examinarán en otras ponencias e intervenciones. El trabajo culmina con unas conclusiones acerca del nuevo sistema -sus relaciones con el texto anterior y su proyección de futuro- y unas cuestiones abiertas para un debate.
La orden europea de retención de cuentas ante el impago de pensiones
Authors: Blas Javaloyas José Ramón de
Published: November 2024

La orden europea de retención de cuentas facilita al acreedor transfronterizo de una pensión alimenticia o compensatoria el cobro de la pensión, al conseguir la retención de fondos en cuentas bancarias en el extranjero. Además, permite obtener información sobre las cuentas bancarias que el deudor tenga en el extranjero. En aras de evitar el alzamiento de bienes por un deudor apercibido, se configura un procedimiento inaudita parte debitoris, a petición del acreedor interesado, que se basa en un principio de confianza entre Estados miembros. El Estado origen emisor de la orden la transmitirá a la autoridad competente designada por el Estado de ejecución, que la remitirá al banco allí domiciliado para que se retengan los fondos. No obstante, se trata tan solo de una medida de aseguramiento que no permite el ingreso de las cantidades retenidas, directamente, en el patrimonio del acreedor, sino que, para ello, exige una actuación ejecutiva posterior.

The gradual discovery of cell-type and context specificity of microRNAs
Authors: Dutta Khokon Kumar
Published: November 2024

The discovery of microRNAs (miRNAs) has revolutionized our understanding of gene regulation, particularly through their cell-type and context-specific functions. This perspective explores the gradual realization of miRNA specificity, beginning with the identification of lin-4 in Caenorhabditis elegans and progressing to the discovery of tissue-specific miRNAs such as miR-122 in the liver and miR-1 in muscle. A central focus is miR-34a, one of the most studied miRNAs, which exemplifies the importance of cellular context in miRNA function. miR-34a’s role in tumor suppression via the p53 pathway, demonstrating that its ability to induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest depends on the cellular environment. miR-34a overexpression can have diverse effects on cell proliferation, ranging from strong suppression in certain cell types to minimal or paradoxical responses in others. In situ analysis of rat tissues revealed tissue-specific expression of miR-34a, with high levels in cerebral neurons and Purkinje cells and faint expression in renal, hepatic, and myocardial tissues. These findings suggest that miR-34a plays distinct roles depending on the tissue, contributing to homeostasis in some contexts while exhibiting a lesser regulatory role in others. This review synthesizes key studies that underscore the critical role of miRNAs, such as miR-34a, in regulating gene expression in a tissue and context-specific manner, providing insights into both normal physiology and disease pathogenesis.

Published: November 2024

Introduction: Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae, primarily affecting the skin, peripheral nerves, eyes, and upper respiratory tract. Although treatable, it remains a public health challenge, especially in areas with significant social vulnerability. In Itabuna, a municipality in the interior of Bahia, data indicates a significant prevalence of the disease, highlighting the need for more effective prevention and treatment strategies. Objectives: The objective of this study is to analyze the epidemiological profile of leprosy in the municipality of Itabuna from 2019 to 2023. Justification: Leprosy remains a public health concern, especially in the most disadvantaged regions of Brazil, such as the state of Bahia. The research is justified by the need to better understand the social and epidemiological determinants of the disease.Methodology: This is an epidemiological study with a quantitative approach. Data collection was conducted using information from the Department of Informatics of the Unified Health System (DATASUS). Data on incidence, distribution of cases by age group, sex, and race, as well as temporal trends and associated risk factors, were analyzed.Results and Discussion: The data analysis revealed that between 2019 and 2023, Itabuna recorded 149 cases of leprosy, with a distribution suggesting a high prevalence among adults, particularly in the age groups of 30 to 39 years and 50 to 59 years. The incidence rate was higher among men (47%) compared to women (53%), reflecting a trend observed in other studies, although the difference was not statistically significant. Furthermore, the majority of cases were recorded among individuals of mixed race (55.7%), which may be linked to socioeconomic factors.Conclusion: This study highlights the importance of improving early diagnosis and access to treatment in order to reduce the prevalence of leprosy in Itabuna. The analysis revealed that the disease mainly affects adults in older age groups, with a predominance in men and individuals of mixed race. To reduce these rates, it is urgent to implement awareness strategies, active screening, and access to adequate treatment, along with actions aimed at improving living conditions and access to healthcare in the most vulnerable areas.

Danish Films about “White Slavery” as a Forerunner of the “Women's Question” in World Cinema
Authors: Smagina S. A.
Published: November 2024

The article examines number of Danish films about ‘white female slaves’ which did not only become a noticeable event in European filmmaking and gained popularity in Russia, but also marked the concern for the ‘women’s issue’ in world cinema.Although small by modern standards, Danish cinema of the early 1910s had a significant impact on the world cinema. Far from being the European leader in the number of releases, it, nevertheless, managed to set the tone in the ‘cup-and saucer’ drama, start a fashion for ‘Danish melodrama’ and provocative movies, introduce the viewer to the ‘Danish kiss’ and generate a new ‘vamp’ heroines which would soon transform into the image of a new woman and mark the most important changes in the socio-cultural and socio-political life of society. Later all the Danish innovations would be picked up and developed by German, Soviet and American film industries.Danish films exploited the controversial and taboo subject of human vice, sexuality and inter-gender relationships, often responding to current and sensational agendas. What the Russian pre-revolutionary press called “glamorizing the 20th century moral degradation” can in fact be also attributed to the film industry’s adaptation of scandal to its needs, i.e. the creation of an action-packed story. Thus, Danish film industry enters the international film market with the hot topic of “white slavery”.The paper analyzes the films about “women's slavery” made in 1907–1912 and traces how the cultural and historical context of the time transformed the acute social theme of sexual slavery into an ideological construct of ‘new woman’ representing the ‘spirit of the time’ (German: Zeitgeist).
Features of Atheistic Discourse in the Cinema of ‘‘Militant Atheism’’ of the 1920s
Authors: Palshkova M. A.
Published: November 2024

The article examines the specific features of Soviet anti-religious films of the 1920s from the first propaganda campaigns to full-length feature films. The real persecution of the Church and believers was beyond the attention of filmmakers. The core purpose of such films was a full-scale defamation of the Russian Orthodox Church, its ministers and parishioners. This kind of cinema was the mainstream of militant atheism, aimed at exterminating Christianity. The author focuses primarily on little-studied films from the collection of the National Film Archive.

This myth is still being created in Russian cinema, which forms the sociocultural paradigm of society.
Protocolo sencillo y eficiente para la extracción de ADN a partir de semillas de cafeto (Coffea canephora Pierre)
Authors: Castilla Valdés Yanelis , Soto Pérez Natacha , González Vega María Esther
Published: November 2024

El primer paso para realizar cualquier tipo de estudio genético es contar con un protocolo para el aislamiento
de ADN. Aunque el material vegetal más utilizado para ello es el tejido foliar, cuando no existe disponibilidad,
las semillas constituyen otra opción y además, durante su traslado del campo al laboratorio no se produce
degradación del ADN ni se necesita nitrógeno líquido para su conservación. Sin embargo, la extracción de
ADN a partir de semillas de algunas especies como el cafeto, resulta complicado debido a su dureza y contenido de compuestos fitoquímicos. En este trabajo nos propusimos optimizar un protocolo de extracción de
ADN de semillas de cafeto (C. canephora) para ser utilizado en análisis moleculares. Se utilizó el método
CTAB como control y tres variantes de este. La calidad del ADN se comprobó en geles de agarosa y su
concentración fue determinada en un nano-espectrofotómetro. Se realizó la amplificación del ADN por PCR
con un cebador de RAPD, y su chequeo en electroforesis. Se logró obtener ADN libre de grasas y polisacáridos,
con suficiente calidad para ser utilizado en PCR, como se demostró por la observación en gel, los valores de
concentración y relaciones de absorbancia, y la obtención de las bandas que produjo el cebador. Este protocolo
permite el acceso a la caracterización genética del cafeto, esencial para la conservación de su diversidad y
para el mejoramiento genético.

Description of the primary Loreto-coca river contamination through the measurement of physicochemical parameters.
Authors: Allauca P Jose , Lopez P Carlos , Daza Jennyfer , Chamba Joyce
Published: November 2024

The main objective of this article is to describe the pollution in the main Loreto-Coca rivers using physicochemical parameters. Our analysis is focused on the Orellana province and examines the Suno, Napo, Coca,
and Payamino rivers, which are adversely impacted by oil and mining activities. These activities result in toxic
and chemical residues, such as heavy metals and other contaminants. Samples were collected following the
INEN 2176 standard to do this. We could evaluate parameters such as pH, dissolved oxygen, conductivity,
turbidity, nutrients (nitrates, phosphates), heavy metals, and COD using laboratory equipment and specific
techniques and methods. The level of pollution was determined by comparing these results with permissible
limits. Therefore, based on the comparative results obtained, environmental education is crucial for raising
awareness about the importance of protecting and conserving water as a vital resource. Conducting these
studies provides essential information for taking preventive and corrective measures and monitoring and addressing identified issues to safeguard public health and the environment.
