Enhancing Data Protection in Dynamic Consent Management Systems: Formalizing Privacy and Security Definitions with Differential Privacy, Decentralization, and Zero-Knowledge Proofs
Authors: Khalid Muhammad Irfan , Ahmed Mansoor , Kim Jungsuk
Published: September 2023

Dynamic consent management allows a data subject to dynamically govern her consent to access her data. Clearly, security and privacy guarantees are vital for the adoption of dynamic consent management systems. In particular, specific data protection guarantees can be required to comply with rules and laws (e.g., the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)). Since the primary instantiation of the dynamic consent management systems in the existing literature is towards developing sustainable e-healthcare services, in this paper, we study data protection issues in dynamic consent management systems, identifying crucial security and privacy properties and discussing severe limitations of systems described in the state of the art. We have presented the precise definitions of security and privacy properties that are essential to confirm the robustness of the dynamic consent management systems against diverse adversaries. Finally, under those precise formal definitions of security and privacy, we have proposed the implications of state-of-the-art tools and technologies such as differential privacy, blockchain technologies, zero-knowledge proofs, and cryptographic procedures that can be used to build dynamic consent management systems that are secure and private by design.

Published: September 2023

The differential count of white blood cells (WBCs) can effectively provide disease information for patients. Existing stained microscopic WBC classification usually requires complex sample-preparation steps, and is easily affected by external conditions such as illumination. In contrast, the inconspicuous nuclei of stain-free WBCs also bring great challenges to WBC classification. As such, image enhancement, as one of the preprocessing methods of image classification, is essential in improving the image qualities of stain-free WBCs. However, traditional or existing convolutional neural network (CNN)-based image enhancement techniques are typically designed as standalone modules aimed at improving the perceptual quality of humans, without considering their impact on advanced computer vision tasks of classification. Therefore, this work proposes a novel model, UR-Net, which consists of an image enhancement network framed by ResUNet with an attention mechanism and a ResNet classification network. The enhancement model is integrated into the classification model for joint training to improve the classification performance for stain-free WBCs. The experimental results demonstrate that compared to the models without image enhancement and previous enhancement and classification models, our proposed model achieved a best classification performance of 83.34% on our stain-free WBC dataset.
Polystyrene Coating on APTES-Primed Hydroxylated AA2024-T3: Characterization and Failure Mechanism of Corrosion
Authors: Chen Cheng-fu
Published: September 2023

Polystyrene has limited adhesivity to inorganic materials such as metals. However, the inorganic surface can be treated to enhance bonding to energetically stable polystyrene. This concept is verified in this paper with organosilane aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) as the coupling agent primed on hydroxylated aluminum alloy AA2024-T3. We characterize the structural integrity and electrical impedance of the polystyrene coating on APTES-primed surfaces with different cured conditions after exposure to 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution for seven days. The results show that top-coated polystyrene on APTES is more structurally intact and less electrically conductive than the polystyrene coating alone. The coating layer made of top-coating polystyrene on a curing APTES film has the largest water uptake rate in the early stage of immersion in the corrosion solution. In the later stage, all coating layers tested regained their impedance while losing structural integrity. The charge transfer in the double layer of coated specimens for all types of coatings tested is predominantly through capacitance-based charging/discharging, presumably governed by the adsorption mechanism of ions at the coating/substrate interface.
A Novel Approach to Enhance the Energy Efficiency of a NOMA Network
Authors: Rajab Husam , Ren Baolin , Cinkler Tibor
Published: September 2023

Spectral efficiency is crucial for implementing 5G cellular networks and beyond. Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is a promising scheme to enhance efficiency. This paper introduces two improvements that will further enhance the channel capacity using the NOMA algorithm. We first introduce a novel algorithm, the User Sub-Channel Fair Matching Algorithm (USFMA), by applying a new sub-channel sorting and compensations scheme and then benefiting from the well-known Hungarian algorithm to allocate users to each sub-channel in a way that guarantees an optimum overall system performance. Then, for per sub-channel power allocation, we convert the non-convex objective function into a convex sub-problem using the concave–convex procedure (CCP) by converting the objective function into convex sub-problems and using the successive convex approximation to solve the convex sub-problems to find effective sub-optimal solutions. We have built a MATLAB simulation cellular environment to evaluate and compare the system performance with other known schemes. The results are promising and showed significant improvements compared to the other capacity and energy efficiency schemes.
The Effect of Cooling Fluid Composition on Ablation Size in Hepatic Laser Ablation: A Comparative Study in an Ex Vivo Bovine Setting
Authors: Mankertz Fiona , Bayerl Nadine , Gemeinhardt Ole , Hosten Norbert , Kromrey Marie-Luise
Published: September 2023

Purpose: Hyperthermic ablation is a minimally invasive mode of tumour therapy which serves as a viable alternative to surgical intervention. However, one of the major drawbacks, besides the heat sink effect and the risk of damaging adjacent organs, is limited ablation size. The use of a cooling fluid during ablation has been shown to increase the ablation volume and decrease the carbonisation rate. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the composition of the cooling fluid has an effect on ablation size and carbonisation rate during hepatic laser ablation in an ex vivo bovine setting. Method: In this study bovine hepatic tissue was ablated in an ex vivo setting using an internally cooled laser applicator. A total of 45 tissue samples were assigned to three groups: 0.9% saline infusion (n = 15), distilled water infusion (n = 15) and a 50%/50% mixture of 0.9% saline and distilled water (n = 15). Ablation was conducted using a 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser at a wattage of 25 W and time interval of 10 min. The ablation volume and carbonisation rate were then measured and recorded through postprocedural MRI. One-way ANOVA and post-hoc testing were performed to assess the effect of the cooling fluid composition on the ablation volumes. Results: We found that using a mixture of saline and distilled water as a cooling fluid during hyperthermic ablation resulted in a larger ablation volume (mean ± SD: 22.64 ± 0.99 cm3) when compared to saline infusion (21.08 ± 1.11 cm3) or distilled water infusion (20.92 ± 0.92 cm3). This difference was highly significant (p < 0.001). There was no significant difference in ablation size between the saline group and the distilled water group. The highest carbonisation rate occurred in the saline group (12/15), followed by the mixed infusion group (3/15) and the distilled water group (1/15). Conclusions: The results of this study suggest that cooling fluid composition during hepatic laser ablation affects ablation volume in an ex vivo bovine setting. There was no statistically significant difference when comparing ablation volumes during saline infusion and distilled water infusion, but the carbonisation rate was significantly higher when using saline. The combination of saline and distilled water in a 50%/50% mixture as cooling fluid appears to be an auspicious alternative, as ablation volumes created with it are larger when compared to saline and distilled water alone, while carbonisation rate remains low. This might improve patient outcome as well as patient eligibility for hyperthermic ablation.

Published: September 2023

Background: Endovascular intervention is now the primary line of therapy for arterial injury brought on by pelvic trauma since it can significantly reduce considerable morbidity associated with surgery and can swiftly access and control bleeding sites. Despite international guidelines and widespread awareness of the role of angioembolization in clinical practice, robust evidence comparing the outcomes of angioembolization in hemodynamically stable and unstable patients is still lacking. This study aims to directly compare the outcomes of angioembolization for the treatment of pelvic traumatic arterial injury in patients with hemodynamic stability vs. hemodynamic instability. Methods: In our multicenter retrospective investigation, we analyzed data from consecutive patients who underwent, from January 2020 to May 2023, angioembolization for traumatic pelvic arterial injury. Results: In total, 116 angioembolizations were performed. Gelatin sponges (56.9%) and coils (25.9%) were the most widely used embolic agents. The technical and clinical success rates were 100% and 91.4%, respectively. No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of technical success, clinical success, procedure-related complication rate, or 30-day bleeding-related mortality. Conclusions: Angioembolization is an effective and safe option for the management of traumatic pelvic arterial lesions even in hemodynamically unstable patients, despite technical variations such as greater use of prophylactic angioembolization.

Published: September 2023

There has been an increase in the use of interventional neuroradiology procedures because of their non-invasiveness compared to surgeries and the improved image quality of fluoroscopy, digital subtraction angiography, and rotational angiography. Although cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images are inferior to multi-detector CT images in terms of low-contrast detectability and lower radiation doses, CBCT scans are frequently performed because of their accessibility. This study aimed to evaluate the image quality and radiation dose of two different high-resolution CBCTs (HR CBCT): conventional (C-HR CBCT) and wide-field HR CBCT (W-HR CBCT). The modulation transfer function (MTF), noise power spectrum (NPS), and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) were used to evaluate the image quality. On comparing the MTF of C-HR CBCT with a 256 × 256 matrix and that of W-HR CBCT with a 384 × 384 matrix, the MTF of W-HR CBCT with the 384 × 384 matrix was larger. A comparison of the NPS and CNR of C-HR CBCT with a 256 × 256 matrix and W-HR CBCT with a 384 × 384 matrix showed that both values were comparable. The reference air kerma values were equal for C-HR CBCT and W-HR CBCT; however, the value of the kerma area product was 1.44 times higher for W-HR CBCT compared to C-HR CBCT. The W-HR CBCT allowed for improved spatial resolution while maintaining the image noise and low-contrast detectability by changing the number of image matrices from 256 × 256 to 384 × 384. Our study revealed the image characteristics and radiation dose of W-HR CBCT. Given its advantages of low-contrast detectability and wide-area imaging with high spatial resolution, W-HR CBCT may be useful in interventional neuroradiology for acute ischemic stroke.
Bird’s-Eye View Semantic Segmentation for Autonomous Driving through the Large Kernel Attention Encoder and Bilinear-Attention Transform Module
Authors: Li Ke , Wu Xuncheng , Zhang Weiwei , Yu Wangpengfei
Published: September 2023

Building an autonomous driving system requires a detailed and unified semantic representation from multiple cameras. The bird’s eye view (BEV) has demonstrated remarkable potential as a comprehensive and unified perspective. However, most current research focuses on innovating the view transform module, ignoring whether the crucial image encoder can construct long-range feature relationships. Hence, we redesign an image encoder with a large kernel attention mechanism to encode image features. Considering the performance gains obtained by the complex view transform module are insignificant, we propose a simple and effective Bilinear-Attention Transform module to lift the dimension completely. Finally, we redesign a BEV encoder with a CNN block of a larger kernel size to reduce the distortion of BEV features away from the ego vehicle. The results on the nuScenes dataset confirm that our model outperforms other models with equivalent training settings on the segmentation task and approaches state-of-the-art performance.

Published: September 2023

The charging and discharging process of batteries generates a significant amount of heat, which can adversely affect their lifespan and safety. This study aims to enhance the performance of a lithium-ion battery (LIB) pack with a high discharge rate (5C) by proposing a combined battery thermal management system (BTMS) consisting of improved phase change materials (paraffin/aluminum composite) and forced-air convection. Battery thermal performance is simulated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to study the effects of heat transfer and flow parameters. To evaluate the impact of essential parameters on the thermal performance of the battery module, temperature uniformity and maximum temperature in the cells are evaluated. For the proposed cooling system, an ambient temperature of 24.5 °C and the application of a 3 mm thick paraffin/aluminum composite showed the best cooling effect. In addition, a 2 m/s inlet velocity with 25 mm cell spacing provided the best cooling performance, thus reducing the maximum temperature. The paraffin can effectively manage thermal parameters maintaining battery temperature stability and uniformity. Simulation results demonstrated that the proposed cooling system combined with forced-air convection, paraffin, and metal foam effectively reduced the maximum temperature and temperature difference in the battery by 308 K and 2.0 K, respectively.
Simulation of Foreign Object Detection Using Passive Inductive Sensors in a Wireless Charging System for Electric Vehicles
Authors: Hentschel Uwe , Helwig Martin , Winkler Anja , Modler Niels
Published: September 2023

During wireless charging of the traction battery of electrically powered vehicles, the active area between the ground and vehicle assemblies must be monitored for inductive power transfer. If metallic foreign objects enter this area, they interact with the magnetic field and can heat up strongly, and thus become a potential source of hazard. To detect such foreign objects, measurements based on passive inductive sensors have already been carried out in advance. However, a large number of factors influence the detectability of metallic foreign objects, such as the characteristics of the magnetic field of the ground assembly coil, the size, shape, position, orientation, and material composition of the foreign objects, or the design of the sensor coils. The related practical testing effort can be reduced if the characteristics of the charging system and the foreign object detection system can be simulated. Therefore, simulation models were developed within the scope of this work and validated with the help of practical measurements. These models were used in the next step to analyze new test arrangements that had not yet been investigated by measurement. In the simulations described here, precision in the range of 1 mV could be achieved. Cumulatively, many influencing factors can be easily investigated, and results can be generated in a largely automated manner and typically in a wider variety than with practical measurements.

Globally, zoonoses have serious consequences due to their socioeconomic impacts. Ngorongoro District is home to a diverse range of wildlife and domestic animals, including rodents and dogs, which often coexist in close proximity with humans. The aim of the study was to identify the zoonotic bacteria present in wild rodents, domestic dogs, and humans using metagenomics next-generation sequencing technology. A cross-sectional study was conducted in 2022. This study used both Illumina and Oxford Nanopore sequencing technologies to identify bacteria in 530 blood samples collected from humans (n = 200), wild rodents (n = 230), and dogs (n = 100). Several zoonotic airborne/contagious bacteria, including Mycobacterium spp., Mycoplasma spp., Bordetella spp., and Legionella spp., were detected in wild rodents, domestic dogs, and humans. Arthropod-borne zoonotic bacteria such as Bartonella spp., Borrelia spp., and Rickettsia spp. were detected in all three hosts, while Orientia spp. was found in wild rodents and domestic dogs. Yersinia pestis, Streptobacillus spp. and Anaplasma spp. were found only in wild rodents. Other zoonotic bacteria found shared among wild rodents, domestic dogs, and humans are Leptospira spp., Brucella spp., and Salmonella spp. Generally, wild rodents had the highest prevalence of zoonotic bacterial species when compared to domestic dogs and humans. The detection of zoonotic bacteria in rodents, dogs, and humans supports the hypothesis that infections can spread between animals and humans sharing the same environment.

This study examines the considerations made by the Civil Court and the Sharia Court in Malaysia in enforcing the right of children in cases of various religious issues in connection with the 1976 Act to Revise the Law (Marriage and Divorce) (Akta 164). The type of research used is qualitative research with normative jurisprudential methodology related to Malaysian law and Islamic law. The source uses secondary data, which combines documentary studies from the Civil Court and Sharia Court decisions. The researchers found that the right to have children was given priority to women because women's fitrah was full of affection and tenderness in raising children. In the preliminary formulation, the researchers found that the courts granted the right to a gift based on certain factors, such as age issues, child wishes, parents' wishes and religion, family backgrounds, and even relatives. The researcher also notes that the decision to determine the religion of a child under the age of 18 is under the supervision of a parent or guardian, but this is not a fixed decision. For this case, the decision of the power of the judge in the court will be used as the determination of the right of the child.

Os impactos psicológicos causados pelos padrões de beleza impostos pela sociedade, podem desencadear um adoecimento emocional, impactando negativamente a saúde do indivíduo. Dessa forma, a presente revisão sistemática teve como objetivo: abordar os impactos psicológicos da realização de cirurgia plástica. Além disso, buscou-se também, mostrar os benefícios desse tipo de procedimento e também, elencar os principais benefícios e consequências da realização de cirurgia plástica. Foi realizada uma busca nas bases de dados Google acadêmico e Scientific Eletronic Online (Scielo), no qual os descritores foram: Beleza, Autoestima, Adoecimento emocional, 12 artigos foram utilizados neste estudo. Os resultados da revisão sistemática evidencia que a frequente pressão da sociedade e da mídia em relação à aparência de seus corpos, faz com que cada vez mais indivíduos optem pelas cirurgias plásticas que algumas vezes não tem o resultado esperado, gerando mais impactos psicológicos aos pacientes.
Giddens y su discusión con la posmodernidad. Un debate inconcluso
Authors: Klein Alejandro
Published: September 2023

El siguiente trabajo plantea como objetivo una presentación general de las ideas de Giddens en torno a lo social, expresado en términos de confianza básica, sistemas expertos y políticas de riesgo, recorriendo metodológicamente sus principales textos, contrastados a su vez con otros (desde otras disciplinas) que permiten una nueva aproximación a los mismos. A su vez se busca indagar qué implica en términos sociales su debate con autores postmodernos. Se intenta profundizar en dónde aparecen los puntos críticos de debate de Giddens en relación a los posmodernistas, indicándose que en algunos casos estamos ante diferencias profundas, pero en otros, solo se trata de matices o de cómo se enfoca la cuestión social. En tiempos que se entiende, son de precariedad y profundo cambio social, parece relevante entender estos debates también en términos emancipatorios y de cambio social.

Published: September 2023

In an era of increasingly complex business competition, selecting the best employees has become crucial to ensure organizational productivity and success. In this endeavor, the integration of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis Method with emphasis on Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) has emerged as an objective and scientific approach. This research discusses how the AHP method can be applied in the context of best employee selection by analyzing relevant criteria and pairwise comparisons that are calculated to generate relative weights. Through this process, best employee selection decisions can be made on a stronger and more transparent basis. However, the success of this method depends on the quality of the data and the assumptions used in the calculations. Although complex, AHP can provide valuable insights for decision makers in finding a balance between diverse criteria in the process of selecting the best employee.

ÖZET
Amaç: Toplumda tanı konmamış Metabolik Sendrom
vakalarının tespiti, giderek salgın hale gelen obezite ve tip 2
diyabetle mücadelede önemli bir adım olacaktır. Bu nedenle
çalışmamızda bir büyükşehir aile sağlığı merkezine kayıtlı
bireylerde obezite ve metabolik sendrom sıklığını ve ilgili
faktörleri araştırmayı amaçladık.
Materyal ve Metotlar: Bu kesitsel araştırma, bir Aile Sağlığı
Merkezine kayıtlı 18 yaş ve üzeri bireyler arasında yapılmıştır.
Değerlendirmeler Türk Endokrinoloji ve Metabolizma Derneği
tarafından Metabolik Sendrom Tanı Kriterlerine göre yapılarak
boy, kilo, bel çevresi ve arteriyel kan basıncı değerleri, vücut
kitle indeksii açlık kan şekeri, trigliserit ve HDL düzeyleri
kaydedildi.
Bulgular: Kadın ve erkeklerde Metabolik Sendrom sıklığı
sırasıyla %32.97 (n:31) ve %32.43 (n:24) idi. Metabolik
sendrom sıklığı cinsiyetler arasında farklılık göstermezken
eğitim düzeyi düşük olanlarda ve çalışmayanlarda Metabolik
sendrom sıklığı daha sık görüldü.
Sonuç: Çalışmamız Metabolik Sendrom ile toplumdaki eğitim
düzeyi arasında ters bir ilişki saptamıştır. Ayrıca, Metabolik
Sendrom’lu bireyler genellikle fazla kilolarının farkındadır
ve çare arayışındadırlar. Bu bulgular metabolik sendromun
yükünü azaltmak için bireylerin her zaman kolayca erişim
sağlayabilecekleri birinci basamak sağlık merkezlerinde
erken teşhis ve eğitim programlarının uygulanmasını
desteklemektedir.

Published: September 2023

In order to meet the precision seeding of small seeds including millet and broomcorn millet in hilly and mountainous areas, a single-row small grain precision seeder was developed. Static seeding test and seeding test were carried out on the seeder. In this paper, the key parts such as socket wheel-ring groove seed metering device, transmission system and tensioning wheel are designed. The working parts such as
arrow shovel furrow opener, plastic seed tube and hollow cast iron press wheel were selected to achieve seed metering. The seed metering wheel has double-row of holes. The results of static seeding test showed that rotational speed had a significant effect on the sowing quantity of millet and broomcorn millet (P < 0.001). The higher the rotational speed, the greater the sowing quantity. With the increase of rotational speed of seed metering wheel, the damage rate of millet and broomcorn millet increased. At the same rotational speed, the breakage rate of broomcorn millet is smaller than that of millet. The field sowing test showed that when the seeder is at a marching speed of about 0.5 m/s, the qualified rate of the hole spacing of millet and broomcorn millet is greater than or equal to 90%, and the qualified rate of the number of grains per hole is
greater than or equal to 82%. All indicators meet the requirements of the technical conditions of single-grain (precision) seeder. The design can provide reference for the design and optimization of small grain precision seeder.
