Implications of Informal Money Transfer Systems on Kenya’s Financial Sector
Authors: Ecubay Feven , Kilimvi Aitaa 
Published: July 2023

Purpose: In Kenya, the informal money transfer system is widely used by its citizens, allowing them to make quick and easy payments across long distances. This system has bridged the gap between those with limited access to formal banking services, allowing them to make transactions without relying on a formal banking institution. While there are numerous benefits to using this type of system, it can also present potential risks to the economy and financial sector in general. This paper examines the implications of the informal money transfer system in Kenya, focusing primarily on its effects on financial sector development, financial inclusion, and risk management practices.
Methodology: A qualitative research approach was adopted for this study to understand the complexities and nuances involved in this type of financial transaction. Secondary data was obtained from surveys conducted by government agencies such as the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK). Other sources included reports on informal money transfers such as web-based searches on informal money transfer services, and databases used by banks and other government departments related to finances. Legal and regulatory frameworks that influence the use and activities of informal money transfer systems in Kenya were also be included.
Findings: The findings showed that informal money transfer systems provided much-needed access to finance for many individuals excluded from formal banking services, leading to increased economic development opportunities. The findings further uncovered that the drivers of informal money transfers include low-income levels, traditional banks limited geographic reach, limited capital, and a lack of trust in formal banking institutions. As such, informal money transfers aided the velocity of efficient and cheaper cross-borders and cross-regions remittances. It was however demonstrated that although informal money transfers bring benefits to their users, it also carries considerable risks.
Recommendations: It is recommended that the current regulatory framework governing informal money transfers needs to be updated to protect consumers from fraud and theft while still allowing them to access the necessary financial resources for their economic endeavours.

Published: July 2023

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide, claiming approximately
17.9 million lives each year. In this study, a novel CAD system to detect and classify electrocardiogram (ECG) signals is presented. Designed system employs the recurrence plot (RP) approach that transforms a ECG signal into a 2D representative colour image, finally performing their classifications via employment of Deep Learning architecture (ResNet-18). Novel system includes two steps, where the first step is the preprocessing one, which performs segmentation of the data into two-second intervals, finally forming images via the RP approach; following, in the second step, the RP images are classified by the ResNet- 18 network. The proposed method is evaluated on the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database where 5 principal types of arrhythmias that have medical relevance should be classified. Novel system can classify the before-mentioned quantity of diseases according to the AAMI Standard and appears to demonstrate good performance in terms of criteria: overall accuracy of 97.62%, precision of 95.42%, recall of 95.42%, F1-Score of 95.06%, and AUC of 95.7% that are competitive with better state-of-the-art systems. Additionally. the method demonstrated the ability in mitigating the problem of imbalanced samples.

Published: July 2023

IntroductionLong non-coding RNA Membrane-Associated Guanylate Kinase Inverted 2 Antisense RNA 3 (MAGI2-AS3) has been identified as a predictive characteristic for prostate cancer (PC). However, the underlying mechanism of MAGI2-AS3 in PC is yet unclear.Material and methodsThe gene expression was detected via reverse transcription quantitative PCR. Cell viability, apoptosis and invasion were detected via cell counting kit-8, caspase-3 activity, flow cytometry, and transwell assays. Tumor xenograft experiment was performed to measure the tumor growth in vivo. Luciferase and radioimmunoprecipitation assays were utilized to determine the association between microRNA (miR)-142-3p and MAGI2-AS3 or proline-rich membrane anchor 1 (PRIMA1).ResultsMAGI2-AS3 and PRIMA1 were established to be downregulated in PC, whereas miR-142-3p exhibited the upregulation in PC. In vitro and in vivo loss-of-function assays demonstrated that MAGI2-AS3 silencing increased the viability and invasiveness, enhanced the tumor growth of PC cells, while reducing apoptosis. PRIMA1 silencing in PC cells showed the similar effect as MAGI2-AS3 silencing. Moreover, the miR-142-3p inhibitor reversed the impacts of the downregulation of MAGI2-AS3 or PRIMA1 on the malignant behavior of PC cells.ConclusionsMAGI2-AS3 knockdown enhanced the malignant behavior of PC cells by targeting miR-142-3p to suppress PRIMA1 expression. Our findings reveal that MAGI2-AS3 can be a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of PC.
Determination of Suspects in Narcotics Crimes Through Supervised Submission (Controlled Delivery)
Authors: Tornado Anang Shophan 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Considering that the crime of illicit drug trafficking is already very horrific, both coming from abroad and those circulating within the country, a special method is needed to deal with it. Narcotics and psychotropics are substances or drugs that are very useful and necessary for certain diseases. However, if it is misused or used not in accordance with the standard of treatment, it can have very detrimental consequences for individuals or society, especially the younger generation.
Seeing the difficulty of the investigative process for disclosing drug cases, there must be special rules governing the process or authority of investigators in handling drug cases. The authority of investigators in carrying out investigations, these techniques are undercover buys and controlled delivery.
The norms governing controlled delivery, namely the Narcotics Law and the technical regulations under it, still cannot clearly describe the problems above, especially how the recipient, who incidentally is a person, is intentionally used or framed to become a recipient of narcotic packages .

Published: July 2023

Abstract. Performance criteria play a key role in the calibration and evaluation of hydrological models and have been extensively developed and studied, but some of the most used criteria still have unknown pitfalls. This study set out to examine counterbalancing errors, which are inherent to the Kling–Gupta efficiency (KGE) and its variants. A total of nine performance criteria – including the KGE and its variants, as well as the
Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) and the modified index of agreement
(d1) – were analysed using synthetic time series and a real case
study. Results showed that, when assessing a simulation, the score of the KGE and
some of its variants can be increased by concurrent overestimation and underestimation of discharge. These counterbalancing errors may favour bias
and variability parameters, therefore preserving an overall high score of
the performance criteria. As bias and variability parameters generally
account for two-thirds of the weight in the equation of performance criteria such as the KGE, this can lead to an overall higher criterion score without being associated with an increase in model relevance. We recommend using (i) performance criteria that are not or less prone to counterbalancing errors (d1, modified KGE, non-parametric KGE, diagnostic efficiency) and/or (ii) scaling factors in the equation to reduce the influence of relative parameters.
Historical preconditions for the formation of a quality control system for forensic examinations
Authors: Dolgova O. B. , Romodanovsky P. O. 
Published: July 2023

Introduction. The problem of the quality of forensic examinations has existed throughout the history of forensic medicine, which determines the relevance of quality control of examinations.The purpose of the work was to evaluate and analyze, from a historical perspective, the literature and the provisions of regulatory documents on quality control of forensic examinations, the definition of defects and their prevention at all stages of forensic examination.Materials and methods. A literature search on the subject was performed in the PubMed, ResearchGate, and Elibrary databases. The depth of the search is 151 years. Fifty-six sources were included in the review.Results and discussion. For the first time the right of a forensic physician to err was recognized in the 19th century, doctors were prosecuted for mistakes. Expert errors are relevant nowadays, the conclusions of experts are not satisfied by courts, investigation and prosecutor’s office. The significance of quality control of expert examinations at the state level was determined in 1951. The first measures to improve expert examinations were adopted in 1962. In 1978, provisions were formulated for the execution of the expert report, the possibility of a dubious conclusion was pointed out. In 1991, the requirements for the execution of documents were outlined. In 2003 a procedure for organizing repeated commission expert examonations after poor-quality primary ones was presented. Currently, however, the regulatory documents lack criteria for defective examinations and measures to prevent defects. In the Russian Federation in 2019 a plan of measures to improve the production of expert examinations is approved, which determines the relevance of studying the issues of organization of quality control of expert examinations and prevention of expert errors.Conclusion. Since the establishment of the State Bureau of Forensic Medicine in the Russian Federation, criteria for the quality of forensic examination based on the identification of defects in the work of a forensic doctor have been developed and used. The formation of successive stages of control based on unified criteria for evaluating the expert work will allow to draw an objective conclusion about the quality of forensic examination.
Predicting the dynamics of norovirus infection using time series models
Authors: Kosova A. A. , Chalapa V. I. 
Published: July 2023

Introduction. Norovirus infection (NI) is the most prevalent cause of acute gastroenteritis and outbreaks in semi-closed settings. Forecasting of NI may improve situational awareness and control measures.The aim of the study is to evaluate accuracy of time-series models for forecasting of norovirus incidence (on Sverdlovsk region dataset).Materials and methods. Simple ARIMA time-series models was chosen to forecast NI incidence via regression on its own lagged values. Dataset including passive surveillance monthly reports for Sverdlovsk region was used. All models were trained on data for 2015−2018 and tested on data for 2019. Models were benchmarked using Akaike information criterion (AIC) and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE).Results and discussion. NI incidence in Sverdlovsk raised in 2015-2018 with strong winter-spring seasonality. The time-series incidence data was stationary. Nine significant models were found and the most accurate model was SARIMA (1,0,0)(0,0,1). Despite its accuracy on 2019 test sample, forecast on COVID-19 pandemic period was failed. It was supposed that including additional regressors (climate and herd immunity data) and choosing of more robust time-series models may improve forecasting accuracy.Conclusion. ARIMA time-series models (especially SARIMA) suitable to forecast future incidence of NI in Sverdlovsk region. Additional investigations in terms of possible regressors and improved model robustness are needed.
La oferta de miel a los consumidores: el caso de la ciudad de Zárate (Buenos Aires, Argentina)
Authors: Tobler Anabella Soledad , Basilio Alicia Mabel 
Published: July 2023

En los países con gran producción de miel, como China, Turquía y Argentina, parte de la producción de se exporta, y parte se vende en el mercado interno. En Argentina este segmento es pequeño, comparado con el de otros grandes productores. Sin embargo, alcanza una rentabilidad muy diferente para el apicultor que la exportación a granel si se realiza con fraccionado propio o a través de cooperativas. La venta de miel en el territorio de producción se realiza a través de comercios habilitados, y/o de manera informal (los propios apicultores venden directamente al consumidor), y contribuye a la economía local, generando retención de mano de obra en entornos rurales o periurbanos. La cantidad de miel que un apicultor puede comercializar dentro de su zona de residencia puede ser limitada, ya que compite con la oferta de grandes y medianos distribuidores. Para que los productores accedan a un público consumidor más amplio, es fundamental conocer la forma en que el producto se ofrece en el territorio y diseñar estrategias comerciales superadoras. En el partido de Zárate (Buenos Aires, Argentina), residen apicultores que comercializan su miel en forma local compitiendo con la oferta de distribuidores centralizados, que proveen a las grandes bocas de expendio y que no incorporan el aporte del territorio. En este trabajo realizamos análisis de caso focalizado en la ciudad de Zarate mediante el relevamiento de todos los productos denominados miel, o con la mención de alimento a base de miel, en diferentes negocios de las principales arterias comerciales.
Los datos obtenidos en este trabajo muestran que los apicultores locales competirían con ventaja frente a los productos ofrecidos actualmente sólo mejorando el packaging (tipo de envase y etiqueta) y resaltando su origen regional con condiciones ambientales que permiten obtener mieles de flores específicas del territorio, aprovechando la tendencia global que valora consumir local, artesanal, y conocer la historia del producto.
