Authors: Muchtar Muchtar , Pundenswari Pupung , Kania Ikeu , Gusti Yandi Ricky
Published: July 2024

This study examines the efficacy of providing staff at the Tourism and Culture Office in Garut Regency with online-based training. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of providing Garut Regency Tourism and Culture Office staff members with online training. Observations at the Garut Regency Tourism and Culture Office, resource interview techniques, and documentation studies through books, journals, scientific papers, and other sources are all used in this qualitative descriptive research project. The Garut Regency Tourism and Culture Office employees participated in online financial, archival, and structural leadership training. The Garut Regency Tourism and Culture Office staff has done an excellent job implementing online training; nevertheless, interference with the network and signal continues to persist. Employees claim that online training is beneficial because it may be completed at home or in the workplace and covers daily duties. The fact that there are still employees who need to comprehend technology and online media and who should receive further training or help if necessary creates barriers to online training in accessing and using online media.

Authors: Nilamcaya Mus , Bastoni Bastoni , Nurhawaeny Endah , Widyani Retno
Published: July 2024

The primary goal of public policy regarding the growth of sheep and goat farming in Indonesia is to make these commodities more competitive and valuable in fulfilling the demands of the animal protein industry and the needs of farmer welfare. To boost operational effectiveness and increase the process base's value for sheep and goat commodities, sheep and goat farmers affiliate with one another and establish businesses. An analysis of the literature was the study's methodology. The findings indicated that the expansion of goat and sheep farming had to focus on utilizing more locally available natural resources and reducing the use of chemicals. In order to do this, more sustainable and health-safe organic farms can be established. Government initiatives in public policy give the development of sheep and goat husbandry in Indonesia more strategic importance. With an integrated closed-loop system concept, the Indonesian Goat Sheep Breeders Association (HPDKI) aims to fast-track the strategic role of sheep and goat farming development, starting with sustainable breeding and progressing through fattening off. The strategic programs of HPDKI include cluster-based closed-loop livestock corporations, integration of value-added production systems, building farmer capacity, organizational and institutional strengthening, and culture-based livestock breeding systems. These programs are intended to stimulate development in the livestock and animal health subsector. The development of sheep and goat farming in Indonesia is primarily driven by official policy, which aims to boost productivity, add value, and the sector's strategic importance in satisfying animal protein demands and improving farmer welfare.

Published: July 2024

Public policy to combat online gambling in Indonesia involves various efforts from various sectors, including the government, police, and legal institutions. Here are some important points of the policy: Cooperation with the Police. The government works with the police to eradicate online gambling applications in the community. This policy involves actions such as blocking content and applications that have gambling elements, as well as legal action against online gambling perpetrators. Laws and Legal Policies: The Government has made laws that regulate online gambling, such as Law Number 19 of 2016 concerning Amendments to Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions. This policy includes legal action against online gamblers, including serious threats to perpetrators who deliberately distribute electronic information that has gambling content[2][4]. Handling Negative Content: Policies in the downstream sector involve handling negative content by blocking content and applications with gambling elements. The goal is to reduce the development of online gambling in society. Penal and Non-Penal Handling, Online gambling countermeasures are carried out penal and non-penal. Penal countermeasures involve legal actions such as imprisonment and fines, while non-penal countermeasures involve prevention and community empowerment efforts[3]. Future Policy: to anticipate gambling crimes in the future, the government can use penal means. Some of the alternative formulation policies that will be revamped include the addition of additional criminal penalties, such as the revocation of the right to practice the profession for makers who commit gambling crimes in carrying out their profession. The government seeks to prevent and follow up on online gambling crimes with these various policies.

Las corporaciones públicas y privadas utilizan sus portales de internet para informar a sus públicos y audiencias sobre su propia actualidad o sobre la que pudiera estar vinculada a su actividad y a su producción. También emplean estos portales para relacionarse con los públicos a través de las herramientas que permite la web 2.0, para lo cual utilizan las áreas denominadas genéricamente salas de prensa virtuales (SPV), que se han convertido, así y con ese objetivo, en diarios digitales. Se trata de un nuevo medio de comunicación al servicio de las entidades públicas y privadas, que supone una alternativa real a los medios tradicionales, que hasta ahora han servido a estas corporaciones de intermediarios con la sociedad.

Los documentales interactivos, también conocidos como webdocs, son una herramienta de comunicación que está adquiriendo una especial relevancia en los últimos años. A diferencia del documental cinematográfico tradicional, el webdoc le permite al receptor una lectura no lineal, seleccionando la dirección y orden de visionado de las diferentes secciones que lo conforman. Por otro lado, el webdoc toma del documental de movilización su carácter explícitamente político, con la intención manifiesta de incidir en la agenda social y en la concienciación ciudadana. En este artículo analizamos el caso del webdoc OResponsables, realizado para alertar a la población de la impunidad política en la gestión del accidente de metro ocurrido en Valencia en 2006, uno de los más graves sucedidos en Europa.

Hacia una crítica feminista de la sociedad red: más allá de la revolución de la audiencia creativa
Authors: Araújo Mendes Júlia
Published: July 2024

La relación entre discursos y poder implica relaciones de género y se enmarca, principalmente, en el ámbito de la comunicación, por ser ésta el escenario por donde fluyen los discursos y, por tanto, donde están representadas las relaciones de poder. Un entramado que considero susceptible de deconstrucción desde una toma de conciencia crítica feminista. El presente artículo parte de la apuesta por los conocimientos situados (Haraway, 1995; Castañeda Salgado, 2008) como la opción epistemológica adecuada para una investigación crítica, asumiendo la experiencia feminista como un campo de intersección entre la investigación académica y la militancia. Tomando la sociedad informacional (Castells, 2000) como el actual paradigma de organización social y abordando conceptos como la sociedad red y la autocomunicación de masas (Castells, 2009), pretendo cuestionar cuáles son límites de los cambios tecnológicos del actual contexto comunicacional. Busco poner en debate la plasticidad de las TICs y del nuevo panorama de la comunicación, tratando, aparte de sus potencialidades, factores que comúnmente son invisibilizados ante el entusiasmo por una posible democratización de los medios, como pueden ser las reproducciones de violencias machistas y de discursos heteropatriarcales disciplinarios.
Podemos: nuevos marcos discursivos para tiempos de crisis. Redes sociales y liderazgo mediático
Authors: Lluch Villar Pilar
Published: July 2024

El discurso como elemento de poder/contrapoder y generador de ideologías. Este es el objeto de este artículo en el que analizamos la construcción discursiva de Podemos y los medios de comunicación utilizados para su difusión. La metodología en la que nos basamos es la de análisis crítico del discurso, según los parámetros propuestos por Van Dijk (Wodak y Meyer, 2003), con la que examinamos el que podría ser el ideario de la nueva formación, plasmado por su líder, Pablo Iglesias, en la presentación de Ganar o Morir. Lecciones Políticas en Juego de Tronos. De este análisis concluimos que Podemos ha creado un discurso propio y diferenciado, ha elegido el lenguaje que conecta con su visión del mundo, ha redefinido palabras y las ha conseguido encajar en la agenda política. Este discurso no solo ha logrado ocupar el espacio urbano del que parte, sino que ha copado el espacio libre de la red y de ahí ha dado el gran salto a los medios de comunicación tradicionales. A diferencia de los viejos partidos políticos ensamblados a prensa, radio, televisión y, por último, redes sociales, el viaje de Podemos ha sido el inverso desde la red -como los movimientos sociales de última generación-. Ha difundido un discurso que se ha hecho viral y que la logrado derribar la barrera de los media. Podemos se muestra tal como se define. Se identifica con la gente y como tal, fomenta mensajes horizontales a través de la red entendida como un instrumento de llamada al debate y, sobre todo, a la acción. El último ingrediente de la pócima Podemos es la obtención de un líder eminentemente mediático que ha situado a la formación en la agenda de los grandes medios de comunicación.
El trol de Internet. Estrategias de los usuarios para controlar el diálogo en los medios digitales durante el juicio de Francisco Camps
Authors: Fenoll Vicente
Published: July 2024

Internet incorpora cada vez más herramientas que permiten a los usuarios participar y aportar contenido. Sin embargo, esta participación no siempre es positiva, ya que existe un tipo de usuario de Internet cuyo objetivo es interrumpir el diálogo racional: el trol. El presente trabajo analiza el contenido de los comentarios escritos en los medios digitales españoles en las noticias que abordan escándalos políticos de corrupción. El caso que hemos elegido para el análisis es el juicio de Francisco Camps en la llamada «causa de los trajes». El estudio compara los distintos tipos de usuario y muestra las estrategias que utilizan para dirigir o interrumpir el debate en el sistema de comentarios. Las conclusiones sugieren que Internet puede fomentar un comportamiento desinhibido y antisocial en algunos usuarios. Es lo que Hardaker denomina «efecto Giges» (2013), efecto cuyas consecuencias son antagónicas y complementarias a las de la «espiral del silencio» (Noelle-Neumann, 1995).

Redes y (Ciber)feminismos. La revolución de la representación que derivó en alianza
Authors: Zafra Remedios
Published: July 2024

Propongo reflexionar sobre cómo los énfasis ciberfeministas han ido cambiando en las últimas décadas paralelamente a las transformaciones sociales derivadas de la construcción de un mundo en red. Valorando que hoy los mayores logros y movilizaciones no han venido de las “formas de representación” poscuerpo como sugería el primer ciberfeminismo, sino de la potencia de la alianza feminista en Internet. Para indagar en este escenario reciente, sugiero cinco puntos de entrada al ciberfeminismo y sus lecturas sobre representación y alianza destacando en todos ellos la influencia que el activismo artístico ha tenido. Comenzaré situando algunos “modos de hacer” que caracterizaron la primera época. En segundo lugar, trataré sobre “feminización y descentralización” en las redes como una analogía fundacional ciberfeminista. Posteriormente sobre “interfaz y subjetividad poscuerpo” como inspiración de algunas lecturas utópicas en la red. Reflexionaré también sobre la “intersección de esferas pública y privada” en el cuarto propio conectado. Y Por último, trataré sobre la deriva ciberfeminista desde la práctica artística al activismo en la práctica cultural sobre género y tecnología.

Del obrero a la pyme: la uniformización de las demandas sobre trabajo autónomo en el discurso de los partidos políticos
Authors: Puertas Cartón Naiara
Published: July 2024

Los discursos en torno al empleo que vertebraban el eje ideológico izquierda-derecha y resultaban claves en la confrontación partidaria se han convertido paulatinamente en similares, enmarcándose dentro de los “autónomos y pymes”, con medidas específicas para este colectivo y diferenciándose solo en algunos aspectos técnicos. Tres factores han contribuido a esta homogeneización: la consolidación de España como economía periférica de la UE, la encrucijada en la que la reforma laboral ha situado a los asalariados españoles, que asume que son ellos quienes tienen que hacer frente a muchos de los deberes que antaño correspondían a las empresas merced a nuevas fórmulas de contratación creativa; y la ideología emprendedora. En el presente artículo analizaremos cómo las propuestas de las cuatro principales formaciones de implantación estatal no terminan -ni siquiera con la entrada de dos partidos más en liza- de romper con el discurso mantenido en las últimas décadas; e incluso cómo llega a establecerse un nexo con algunas de las premisas económicas sobre las que se sustentaba el régimen anterior. Trabajamos sobre la base de que, al contrario de lo que se pudiera pensar, una mayor oferta de partidos no ha redundado en una más amplia variedad discursiva en torno al mundo del trabajo. Muchas de las propuestas convergen en el marco del autoempleo, algo que los representantes de los partidos aderezan con apelaciones constantes a sueños, esfuerzo, etc.Palabras clave: Autónomo, emprendedor, pyme, empleo, oportunidad
Gestión de la comunicación política. Estudio de caso de la campaña interna desarrollada por renovadores UPyD
Authors: Gil-Torres Alicia
Published: July 2024

A través de la aplicación de un método científico basado en la observación e interpretación de datos derivados de un estudio de campo, la presente investigación muestra un análisis de la campaña que Renovadores UPyD llevó a cabo dentro de la formación de Unión, Progreso y Democracia en el año 2015, con el fin de que la candidata y diputada Irene Lozano fuera elegida nueva lideresa. La estrategia comunicativa de Renovadores UPyD unos meses antes de las elecciones a Cortes Generales ha supuesto en el desarrollo de las campañas internas una revelación nunca antes experimentada por el partido en España y claramente innovadora desde el punto de vista de la consultoría política, por lo que su estudio se intuye relevante en el campo científico. En este artículo se analiza un caso concreto para conocer cómo se gestiona una campaña interna de comunicación política de un partido nacional con presencia en el Congreso de los Diputados a través de las informaciones publicadas en medios de comunicación, entrevistas personales al equipo de campaña y su candidata, y gracias al acceso de material inédito relativo a la campaña de Renovadores UPyD. Según el planteamiento escogido, el presente análisis permite comprobar la forma en la que los recursos y herramientas utilizadas en una campaña de comunicación interna condicionan la misma, en función de la importancia que su gestión estratégica tiene en la consecución de los objetivos, pero sin olvidar el resto de factores externos a la formación que determinan los resultados.

Published: July 2024

Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Province is an important area for rice cultivation in Thailand. However, large amounts of rice straw generated at harvest time are often burnt in the fields, causing environmental degradation and air pollution. To address this, rice straw composting by degrading microorganisms has been identified as an effective alternative for sustainable waste management, with potential applications in environmental biotechnology. For this study, 28 microorganism samples were collected from various sources in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Province, including a corrugated paper manufacturer, plant-cultivated soil, compost from dung, black soldier flies, and vermicompost. Lignocellulolytic microorganisms were screened for cellulase, xylanase, and manganese peroxidase production on agar plates and broth media using commercial and rice straw substrates. The lignocellulolytic activities were compared among the isolated and non-pathogenic microorganisms. A microbial consortium with high potential to degrade rice straw was identified, consisting of two thermophilic bacteria, Bacillus licheniformis BKT1 and BOT4, two mesophilic actinomycetes, Streptomyces ardesiacus AQ4 and An6, two thermophilic actinomycetes, Streptomyces thermoalcalitolerans APT3 and Streptomyces thermoviolaceus subsp. thermoviolaceus AQT2, and two fungi, Penicillium sp. Fh11 and Aspergillus sp. Fj6. This microbial consortium induced rapid composting of rice straw, thereby supporting sustainable agricultural waste management and reducing PM25 air pollution.
Influence of Exogenous Melatonin Treatment on the Ram Fertility of the North-east Bulgarian Fine-wool Sheep Breed
Authors: Manchev Stefan , Abadjieva Desislava , Taushanova Paulina , Stefanov Rossen
Published: July 2024

The potential of the epiphyseal hormone melatonin to effect on seasonally breeding species has been extensively studied, but the data remain inconclusive. Levels of reproductive parameters modulation are important to monitoring, given the breed affiliation, as example analyzed breed, which has a pronounced seasonal type of reproduction. The objective of this study was to determine whether application of exogenous melatonin has an effect on ram fertility of the North-east Bulgarian fine-wool sheep breed, as estimated by the reproductive performances of ewes, in the non-breeding season. In addition, the study quantified the effects of exogenous melatonin on ejaculate volume and concentration of sperm in rams with melatonin implants (n = 5) and per os treated rams (n = 5). The application of exogenous melatonin improves the fertility of rams of the studied breed. As a result of the current study, in the 2nd experimental group there was a positive trend on ejaculate volume and concentration of sperm throughout the experiment compared to control group. Although rams exhibited an improvement in sperm parameters, a significantly increased birth rate was found in sheep mating with male receiving melatonin both through implants (P < 0.05) and per os (P < 0.05). It was found to increase the total percentage of birth lambs in 1st (28%) and 2nd (29%) experimental groups compared to control.

Published: July 2024

The prevalence of Renal calculus is on the rise due to increased lifestyle modifications such as insufficient water intake and high consumption of red meat. There is an increased demand for scientific validation among the common people and practioners of modern medicines globally to accept Siddha medicines. Siddha medicine is a traditional system of approach that aims at eliminating the root cause of a disease rather than just mitigating the manifested symptoms of the underlying cause. It was brought into existence through those who attained psychosomatic perfection and immortality i.e. the Siddhars. The aim of this review article is to explore the scientific literary evidence for the polyherbal Siddha drug Sagalanoi chooranam in the treatment of Renal calculus (Kalladaippu). It is a sastric medicine indicated in Brahmamuni karukidai soothiram 380 and is purely herbal. The ingredients are easily available. Most of the ingredients used in the chooranam have anti-inflammatory, anti urolithiatic and diuretic action. They help to reduce the inflammation caused due to the stone, eliminate the growth of microbes caused due to stasis of urine and reduce the size of the stone. The ingredients are capable of mitigating altered Azhal and Vaatha that rationalises the use of this drug in the management of renal calculus. In modern and Siddha aspects the drug is a potentially efficient solution for the management of renal calculus. It is evident through this article that this drug can be used in the treatment of calculus instead of surgical procedures since it is effective, cost efficient, herbal and noninvasive.

Authors: Agarwal Pooja , Dave Hetal H , . Sonu
Published: July 2024

According to Acharya Sushruta, Artavakshaya refers to irregular menstruation, characterized by its absence or insufficient quantity, accompanied by pain in the vagina (yoni marga). This condition can be correlated to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), where oligomenorrhea, delayed or scanty menstrual cycles, is a prevalent symptom (80-90%). PCOS is an endocrine disorder characterized by hyperandrogenism, anovulation, and the presence of polycystic ovaries, as confirmed by ultrasound (USG). Aim: To explain Yoga Basti's efficacy in managing Artavakshaya. Background: A married Hindu female patient of age 35 years visited Prasuti Tantra and Stree Roga OPD of NIA, Jaipur, Rajasthan, India, on 27th June 2022 with a complaint of delayed and scanty menses along with pain during menstruation since 13 months. Physically, the patient appeared lean and thin. Ultrasonography (TAS) dated 15-06-2022 suggested B/L PCOD. Based on clinical presentation and USG findings, the patient was diagnosed with Artavakshaya, which was further correlated with PCOS. Methodology: Mainly, Vata dosha (Apana Vata) vitiation symptoms were observed in the patient, and therefore, Yoga Basti chikitsa (3 consecutive cycles) was done to eliminate Vata dosha. Her complete nidana parivarjana was done, and she was advised to follow rajaswalacharya. Result: After three cycles of Yoga Basti, her menses were regular with normal menstrual flow and decreased pain intensity. Ultrasonography dated (12-9-22) suggested a normal study of the uterus and adnexa, and no evidence of PCOD was found. Conclusion: Yoga Basti is effective in the management of Artavakshaya with special reference to PCOD. This study aims to report the potential of Yoga basti in Artavakshaya.
ANALYSIS OF PESTICIDE RESIDUE LEVELS IN MARKET-AVAILABLE TOMATO SAMPLES IN BANGALORE, KARNATAKA, INDIA
Authors: BK Manasa
Published: July 2024

Introduction: Tomatoes are one of India's most important protective food crops. The plants typically grow 1-3 meters in height. The major Tomatoes-producing states are Bihar, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, Orissa, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and West Bengal. Tomato is one of the vegetables used regularly in Indian culinary and India is one of the major countries which produce Tomatoes. In Karnataka, the major districts which grow tomatoes are Kolar, Mandya, Belagavi, Haveri, Davanagere, Chikkaballapur, and Bengaluru Rural. Long-term, low-dose exposure to pesticides has been found to be progressively associated with adverse health consequences in humans, including cancer, immunosuppression, hormone disruption, lowered IQ, and aberrant reproductive health. Hence, the study was conducted to evaluate pesticide residue in market samples of Tomatoes. Methodology: Tomatoes samples from 3 different major markets in Bangalore, namely the K.R market (KRM), Yeshwanthpur market (YM) and Madiwala market (MM), were collected and subjected to pesticide residue analysis at a food testing laboratory. Results: The study's results revealed that the presence of pesticide residue did not exceed maximum residue levels in all Tomatoes samples. Conclusion: Based on the study's findings, Tomatoes samples from all three market samples have pesticide residue below the quantification limit, or LOQ < 0.1 mg/kg. The superiority of the Ayurvedic treatment plan lies in its ability to heal cumulative damage through internal therapy and detoxification.

The incidence of Gridhrasi has increased over time because of human beings' changing lifestyles. In allopathic science, its treatment is mainly focused on relieving pain by using analgesia, muscle relaxants, etc., all of which have some side effects. Raktamokshana using modified Shringa Yantra and Raasna Guggulu drug, were selected for this study. Aim: The present study aimed to compare the impact of Raasna Guggulu (orally) alone and Raktamokshana by modified Shringa Yantra and Raasna Guggulu (orally) in Gridhrasi. Settings and Design: It was an open comparative clinical trial conducted on 36 patients of Gridhrasi, divided into two equal groups based on a computer-generated randomisation chart. The duration of the trial was 18 months. Materials and Method: Patients were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria after obtaining written informed consent. Statistical analysis: The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test, and Mann Whitney U tests were used to test significance in each group and inter-group comparison. Result: The results showed that the effect of Raktamokshana by modified Shringa Yantra and Raasna Guggulu (orally) is more than that of Raasna Guggulu (orally) alone in Gridhrasi. Conclusion: Both the interventional modalities used were found effective in Gridhrasi, and no side effects were observed during or after the study so they can be safely used as an alternative to other modalities with multiple side effects.

Karnasrava (Otomycosis) is one of the 28 Karnarogas described by Acharya Sushruta. Otomycosis is a fungal ear infection that affects the external auditory canal. It causes inflammation, tinnitus, intense itching, watery discharge, pain, and ear blockage, which is more seen in dusty, warm and humid areas. It seems to be a prevalent clinical condition found in the outpatient department of otorhinolaryngology worldwide. Otomycosis affects the skin of the external auditory canal, causing itching, which is seen mainly in skin diseases (Kustha roga). Sneha kalpana (medicated ghee and oils) in managing Kustha roga has been in vogue since the Samhita period. Arka Taila is an important formulation described in Gada Nigraha for managing skin diseases like Pama, Kachchu, and Vicharchika. Hence, the present study has been undertaken to develop the analytical profile of Arka Taila according to API and the drug testing protocol of PLIM. Materials and Methods: The Arka Taila was subjected to an organoleptic study, physicochemical evaluation, antimicrobial study and heavy metal analysis. Results: Arka Taila is safe for use as heavy metals were below the acceptable limit and free from pathogenic microbes. Conclusion: This paper presents the analytical study of Arka Taila, which was prepared using the general method of preparation of sneha kalpana.
