Self-organizing Coalition Formation based on Non-cooperative Games in Social Networks
Authors: Jin Ruixian , Su Jun 
Published: March 2023

In multi-agent systems, the individual agent must form coalitions to accomplish complex tasks. However, the centralized management model is not flexible in a dynamic environment. To overcome the restriction caused by central control, the paper presents a self-organizing dynamic coalition mechanism based on game theory. Firstly, we adopt a distributed network to communicate among agents, allowing agents to solve the real-time task assignment problem autonomously. Next, a non-cooperative game negotiation model is introduced to find the optimal strategy for each agent. Finally, the effectiveness of our mechanism is validated by comparing it with the traditional command model in three distributed networks. Experimental results indicate the proposed mechanism is capable to improve the system utility.

Published: March 2023

AIMS OF THE STUDY: The legalisation of assisted suicide is one of the most debated topics in the field of medical ethics worldwide. In countries in which assisted suicide is not legal, public discussions about its approval also encompass considerations of the long-term consequences that such legalisation would bring, for example, how many people will use this option, from what conditions would they be suffering, would there be differences between male and female assisted suicide and which developments and trends could be expected if there were to be a marked increase of cases of assisted suicide over time?
METHODS: In order to answer these questions, we present the development of assisted suicide in Switzerland over a 20-year period (1999–2018; 8738 cases) using data from the Swiss Federal Statistical Office.
RESULTS: During the observation period, the number of assisted suicides rose significantly: when four 5-year periods (1999–2003, 2004–2008, 2009–2013, 2014–2018) were analysed, the number of assisted suicide cases doubled over each period compared with the preceding one (Χ = 206.7, 270.4 and 897.4; p <0.001). The percentage of assisted suicides among all deaths rose from 0.2% (1999–2003; n = 582) to 1.5% (2014–2018: n = 4820). The majority of people who chose assisted suicide were elderly, with increasing age over time (median age in 1999–2003: 74.5 years vs 2014–2018: 80 years), and with a predominance of women (57.2% vs 42.8%). The most common underlying condition for assisted suicide was cancer (n = 3580, 41.0% of all assisted suicides). Over time, assisted suicide increased similarly for all underlying conditions; however, the proportion in each disease group remained unchanged.
CONCLUSIONS: It is a matter of one’s viewpoint whether the rise of assisted suicide cases should be considered alarming or not. These figures reflect an interesting social development but still do not appear to represent a mass phenomenon.

Organization of the Activities of the Internal Affairs Bodies in the Context of the Emergence of New Challenges to Russia's Cybersecurity
Authors: Begeza Vitaliy Vasilevich 
Published: March 2023

The article deals with the problem of the organization and effectiveness of law enforcement agencies in ensuring cyber security of the Russian Federation. Based on the analysis of regulatory legal acts and the effectiveness of law enforcement agencies. Cybercrime is gaining more and more popularity every year, and thus more and more importance is attached to it by law enforcement agencies. Statistics of the GIAC of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia on the state of crime in the Russian Federation for January - October 2022 shows that the number of crimes committed using information technology decreased by 5.6%. However, such statistics only confirm that law enforcement agencies are successfully coping with the performance of a preventive function, preventing and suppressing crimes in the field of information technology. At the same time, statistics do not indicate that cybercrimes are losing their relevance. They are acquiring a new format, becoming more sophisticated in technical terms, which, of course, requires more competence and professionalism from law enforcement agencies in this area. In 2022, a new department is operating in the structure of the internal affairs bodies – the "Department for the Organization of Combating the Illegal Use of Information and Communication Technologies" as a specialized department in the structure of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. The legislator points out as the reasons for the creation of the Department – the growth of computer attacks, remote theft of funds and the active development of the illegal digital industry.

Published: March 2023

Backgrounds
Training in the basic interview skills of clinical history-taking has always been a significant component of medical education.

Purpose
This study was designed to identify the factors influence medical students’ history-taking skills learning and develop a way to improve these skills.

Methods
We firstly analysed the academic performance of medical students at Jinan University School of Medicine in different disciplines of the Clinical Medicine Level Test (CMLT), to ensure the students have obtained comprehensive medical education prior to beginning their clinical internships. Next, we conducted a survey among the CMLT participants to seek the underlying causes and corresponding measures to improve history-taking in the future. Before these medical students entered their fifth-year clinical practice, we finally provide them with pre-internship training, including the history-taking workshops with standard patients (SP).

Results
The analysis of the clinical skill sections of the CMLT revealed that the students performed significantly better on clinical operations from multiple disciplines than on medical history-taking. Principal component analysis of the survey questionnaire indicated that the capability of history-taking, course assessments, and awareness of the value of medical history-taking emerged as the key factors forming a cohesive clue for sustaining history-taking implementation. The intervention workshops of employing SP had a positive impact, as evidenced by the students’ feedback and suggestions for improving their ability of history-taking.

Conclusions
This study suggests that strengthening of medical history-taking training is indispensable for training qualified medical students. Workshops with SP is a successful teaching strategy for practicing history-taking, allowing students to spot minute errors and training communication skills.

Aims: This study will explore the incidence rate of childhood vaccination refusal in Malaysia as well as the reasons for this refusal over a four-year period (2016–2019). Given the complexities and dynamic nature of vaccine refusal, this research is essential for defining the target group, identifying the vaccine types they commonly refuse, and comprehending their vaccination concerns.
Study Design: This is a retrospective review study.
Methodology: This study used a nationally representative secondary data set from the Malaysian Ministry of Health's Family Health Division for the years 2016 to 2019. We included vaccination refusals involving children younger than 24 months of age. Data was extracted from the mothers’ immunization refusal form includes information of the ethnicity, citizenship, religion, occupation, the type of vaccine they refused, and the reason for their refusal. The annual incidence rates of childhood vaccination refusal, the types of vaccines and the refusal reason were summarized by percentage, with 95% confidence intervals.
Results: There was a decline in incidence rates of vaccination refusal from 3.2 in 2016 to 2.3 in 2019 (P<0.001). The refusal rate is highest in the states of Terengganu (15.9%), Kedah (14.1%), and Perak (12.2%). Of the 4052 mothers who refused to vaccinate their children, the majority were Muslims (99.0%) who had secondary education (53.7%) and were housewives (65.3%). Furthermore, most mothers refused to vaccinate their children due to religious beliefs (37.5–39.0%), safety concerns (26.3–34.0%), or belief in complementary and alternative medicine (11.4–15.8%). The reasons of refusal are associated with the mothers’ religion, socioeconomic class, and education level (P<0.001). Muslims have refused vaccinations due to religious beliefs, as they were concerned about the vaccine's halal status. Meanwhile, mothers from a higher socioeconomic class and with a higher educational level were apprehensive about the vaccine's safety.
Conclusion: Consolidated strategies are required to increase vaccination uptake, combined with a concerted effort to comprehend, analyse, and overcome vaccine refusal.

AbstractInsufficient oxygenation is a key obstacle in the design of clinically scalable tissue‐engineered grafts. In this work, an oxygen‐generating composite material, termed OxySite, is created through the encapsulation of calcium peroxide (CaO2) within polydimethylsiloxane and formulated into microbeads for ease in tissue integration. Key material parameters of reactant loading, porogen addition, microbead size, and an outer rate‐limiting layer are modulated to characterize oxygen generation kinetics and their suitability for cellular applications. In silico models are developed to predict the local impact of different OxySite microbead formulations on oxygen availability within an idealized cellular implant. Promising OxySite microbead variants are subsequently coencapsulated with murine β‐cells within macroencapsulation devices, resulting in improved cellular metabolic activity and function under hypoxic conditions when compared to controls. Additionally, the coinjection of optimized OxySite microbeads with murine pancreatic islets within a confined transplant site demonstrates ease of integration and improved primary cell function. These works highlight the broad translatability delivered by this new oxygen‐generating biomaterial format, whereby the modularity of the material provides customization of the oxygen source to the specific needs of the cellular implant.

Published: March 2023

AbstractLiving cells have the irreplaceable capability to achieve a wide range of complex biochemical reactions precisely and efficiently, which makes them attractive materials for therapeutic applications. In lieu of the traditional biochemical and biological approaches primarily focused on the augmentation of the innate functions of cells, there has been appreciable progress in the development of engineered therapeutic cells, mainly based on the chemical modifications of cell surfaces, at the single‐cell level, which empowers individual living cells with designed therapeutic functions in a cytocompatible manner. This review highlights the latest advances in the development of therapeutic living cells using single‐cell surface engineering, for potential applications in blood transfusion, drug delivery, cancer therapy, probiotic therapy, and tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. The methodological strategies for functionalizing cell surfaces with biomolecules, and inorganic and organic materials, to endow living cells with extrinsic physicochemical and biological properties as well as to increase the durability and efficacy of engineered therapeutic cells, are also briefly overviewed. The review ends with a perspective that discusses the construction of active cell‐in‐shell nanobiohybrid systems, in which exogenous materials formed on cell surfaces mutually and intimately communicate with the cells inside, as a future research direction for single‐cell surface engineering.

AbstractEmissive organic semiconductors are highly demanding for organic light‐emitting transistors (OLETs) and electrically pumped organic lasers (EPOLs). However, it remains a great challenge to obtain organic semiconductors with high carrier mobility and high photoluminescence quantum yield simultaneously. Here, a new design strategy is reported for highly emissive ambipolar and even n‐type semiconductors by introducing perfluorophenyl groups into polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as perylene and anthracene. The results reveal that 3,9‐diperfluorophenyl perylene (5FDPP) exhibits the ambipolar semiconducting property with hole and electron mobilities up to 0.12 and 1.89 cm2 V−1 s−1, and a photoluminescence quantum yield of 55%. One of the crystal forms of 5FDPA exhibits blue emission with an emission quantum yield of 52% and simultaneously shows the n‐type semiconducting property with an electron mobility up to 2.65 cm2 V−1 s−1, which is the highest value among the reported organic emissive n‐type semiconductors. Furthermore, crystals of 5FDPP are utilized to fabricate OLETs by using Ag as source–drain electrodes. The electroluminescence is detected in the transporting channels with an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of up to 2.2%, and the current density is up to 145 kA cm−2, which are among the highest values for single‐component OLETs with symmetric electrodes.
Normalization of Deviance Is Contrary to the Principles of High Reliability
Authors: Wright Imelda 
Published: March 2023

ABSTRACTNormalization of deviance is a phenomenon in which individuals and teams depart from an acceptable performance standard until the adopted way of practice becomes the new norm. This phenomenon is concerning in high‐risk areas of health care because it erodes a safety culture. Additionally, it is inimical to the principles of high reliability—specifically, to the first of the five principles: preoccupation with failure. Although all high‐reliability principles hold relevance to safety, preoccupation with failure describes a consistent alertness to risk and is critical for preventing adverse events, particularly in high‐risk environments such as the OR. This article describes how normalization of deviance and preoccupation with failure cannot coexist and presents ways to mitigate normalization of deviance and bolster high reliability, ultimately making ORs safer for surgical patients.

Published: March 2023

AbstractNiobium thin films are central to many applications, such as superconducting radio‐frequency cavities and superconducting qubits, due to its relatively high superconducting temperature and easiness to form heterostructures. However, literature on epitaxial growth of Nb on one of the most commonly used substrates, that is MgO, reports contradicting results. In the present parametric study, a coherent picture of how the crystalline orientation and the film morphology depend on the growth parameters is presented. The effects of growth parameters such as growth temperature, growth rate, deposition technique, and surface quality on the transport properties of the superconductor are discussed. In light of the new findings, an overview on previously published results and proposed nucleation and growth mechanisms is also given.
