Call Vietnam mouse-deer ‘cheo cheo’ and let empathy save them from extinction: a conservation review and call for name change

The rediscovery of the silver-backed chevrotain (Tragulus versicolor), an endemic species to Vietnam, in 2019 – after almost 30 years of being lost to science – is a remarkable outcome for conservation. Since its rediscovery, there has been significant concern for the conservation of the species due to hunting for wild meat, a practice deeply rooted in Vietnamese culture. Conservation plans face multiple obstacles as the species has not yet been listed as endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature due to the lack of data. Given the limited effectiveness of current conservation measures, we propose that local actions, community cooperation, and empathetic values can help conserve the silver-backed chevrotain through integrating modern technologies (e.g. the Internet, crowdfunding platforms, social media, AI, etc.) with citizen and community science. Communicating conservation information to the community, especially children, must stimulate their thinking and imagination about nature, develop their curiosity and desire to protect wildlife, and eventually build conservation and eco-surplus core values in their mindsets. To successfully awaken human values within the community and incorporate them into conservation endeavours, messages referring to ‘mouse-deer’, ‘chevrotain’, or the scientific name T. versicolor are largely ineffective as they fail to engender feelings of familiarity. Therefore, we suggest calling the mouse-deer ‘cheo cheo’, a local name that can create familiarity and closeness, awaken the environmental conscience, and stimulate thinking and imagination. All these factors encourage conservationists, scientists, and the government to support conservation and the community in building a conservation and eco-surplus culture.

Digital Battle: A Three-Layer Distributed Simulation Architecture for Heterogeneous Robot System Collaboration

In this paper, we propose a three-layer distributed simulation network architecture, which consists of a distributed virtual simulation network, a perception and control subnetwork, and a cooperative communication service network. The simulation architecture runs on a distributed platform, which can provide unique virtual scenarios and multiple simulation services for the verification of basic perception, control, and planning algorithms of a single-robot system and can verify the distributed collaboration algorithms of heterogeneous multirobot systems. Further, we design simulation experimental scenarios for classic heterogeneous robotic systems such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs). Through the analysis of experimental measurement data, we draw several important conclusions: firstly, the replication time characteristics and update frequency characteristics of entity synchronization in our system indicate that the replication time of entity synchronization in our system is relatively short, and the update frequency can meet the needs of multirobot collaboration and ensure the real-time use and accuracy of the system; secondly, we analyze the bandwidth usage of data frames in the whole session and observe that the server side occupies almost half of the data throughput during the whole session, which indicates that the allocation and utilization of data transmission in our system is reasonable; and finally, we construct a bandwidth estimation surface model to estimate the bandwidth requirements of the current model when scaling the server-side scale and synchronization-state scale, which provides an important reference for better planning and optimizing of the resource allocation and performance of the system. Based on this distributed simulation framework, future research will improve the key technical details, including further refining the coupling object dynamic model update method to support the simulation theory of the coupling relationship between system objects, studying the impact of spatiotemporal consistency of distributed systems on multirobot control and decision making, and in-depth research on the impact of collaborative frameworks combined with multirobot systems for specific tasks.

Multi-robot Source Navigation Method Based on Coordination Graph Monte Carlo Tree Search

To address the dynamic cooperative multi-robot sequential decision problem, we propose a multi-robot source navigation method based on coordination graph Monte Carlo tree search. The Monte Carlo tree search online planning is designed with the algorithm system's structure in mind. We combine the upper confidence bound strategy with the coordination graph, which represents multi-robot cooperative communication, and solve the coordination graph using the max-sum algorithm to select joint actions. This paper proposes a time series prediction model for optimizing multi-robot movement trends using historical data, which is then used to solve the exploration and exploitation problem in Monte Carlo tree search. The experimental analysis and comparison show that our proposed method outperforms the comparison algorithms in terms of source search steps, task execution time, and source search success rate, as well as robustness and efficiency for multi-robot source search.

Epidemiology of Paediatric Fractures at Koshi Hospital, A Tertiary Center in Eastern Nepal

Introduction: Paediatric trauma is a leading cause of disability, hospitalization and may lead to mortality in pediatric population. Incidence and nature of fracture varies according to region, culture, seasonal variations and age. Children are more prone to have injury at play grounds, due to fall from height and also due to road traffic accident due to unmanaged traffic and lack of road safety measures. Identification of specific high-risk injury patterns may lead to improved care and outcome. This study aims to find out the epidemiological profile of paediatric injuries presenting to a tertiary care hospital in eastern Nepal. Objective: To study the common fractures and their management in the paediatric age group at Koshi hospital. Methodology: This was a hospital based retrospective cross-sectional study done among 424 paediatric patients at Koshi hospital from January 2021 to December 2021.Ethical clearance was taken from Nepal health research council . Data collection was done from the outpatient (OPD), emergency and the operation room records and was compiled in Microsoft excel 2007. Results: A total of 424 paediatric fractures were taken into study over the duration of one year. Out of which 288 were male (67.92%) and 136(32.08%) were female. Playground injuries were the most common cause of paediatric fractures (49.76%) followed by fall from height (27.35%) and road traffic accident (12.26%). Distal radius and ulna fracture was found to be most common (30.89%). Conclusion: Distal radius and ulna is the commonly fractured bone followed by supracondylar fractures of the humerus. Most of the paediatric fractures can be managed conservatively. Supervised play in the grounds, at home and at schools are important because paediatric injuries most of the times can be prevented to decrease the morbidity and mortality in the paediatric population. Proper knowledge and awareness of the traffic rules and zebra crossings should be implemented with local community participation and cooperation.

Janus faced: The co-evolution of war and peace in the human species.

The human species presents a paradox. No other species possesses the propensity to carry out coalitionary lethal attacks on adult conspecifics coupled with the inclination to establish peaceful relations with genetically unrelated groups. What explains this seemingly contradictory feature? Existing perspectives, the "deep roots" and "shallow roots" of war theses, fail to capture the plasticity of human intergroup behaviors, spanning from peaceful cooperation to warfare. By contrast, this article argues that peace and war have both deep roots, and they co-evolved through an incremental process over several million years. On the one hand, humans inherited the propensity for coalitionary lethal violence from their chimpanzee-like ancestor. Specifically, having first inherited the skills to engage in cooperative hunting, they gradually repurposed such capacity to execute coalitionary killings of adult conspecifics and subsequently enhanced it through technological innovations like the use of weapons. On the other hand, they underwent a process of cumulative cultural evolution and, subsequently, of self-domestication which led to heightened cooperative communication and increased prosocial behavior within and between groups. The combination of these two biocultural evolutionary processes-coupled with feedback loop effects between self-domestication and Pleistocene environmental variability-considerably broadened the human intergroup behavioral repertoire, thereby producing the distinctive combination of conflictual and peaceful intergroup relations that characterizes our species. To substantiate this argument, the article synthesizes and integrates the findings from a variety of disciplines, leveraging evidence from evolutionary anthropology, primatology, archeology, paleo-genetics, and paleo-climatology.

Full/half-duplex unmanned aerial vehicles assisted wireless systems: Performance analysis and optimization

In this paper, we explore the utilization of both full-duplex (FD) and half-duplex (HD) transmission modes on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to enhance wireless system performance. We consider two practical scenarios: one without a direct transmitter-user link and the other with such a link. For both cases, we derive mathematical expressions of outage probabilities (OPs) and throughputs of FD-UAV and HD-UAV systems, employing a realistic channel model aligned with the fifth and beyond generations (5G-B5G) standards. In cases where imperfect self-interference cancellation (SIC) occurs in FD-UAV systems, we introduce an optimal power allocation approach to enhance system performance. Numerical results underscore the benefits of cooperative communications, particularly when combining the direct link with the UAV link at the user, leading to an overall enhancement in system performance. Furthermore, we conduct a comprehensive analysis of various system parameters, including predefined rates, residual self-interference (RSI) levels, high carrier frequencies of Wi-Fi networks, and high altitudes of UAVs. The impact of RSI is particularly notable, and the proposed optimal power allocation approach significantly improves system performance in such cases. Specifically, the introduced scheme helps avoid error floors in regions of high transmit power, enabling throughputs to reach desired targets in FD-UAV systems. Crucially, the optimal power value is considerably lower than the traditional value often used without optimal power allocation, extending the operational duration of FD-UAV. Finally, to validate the derived mathematical expressions and affirm the effectiveness of the proposed approaches, we conduct Monte-Carlo simulations.

Communication architecture and operations for SDR-enabled UAVs network in disaster-stressed areas

The article presents a collaboration and communication architecture for disaster stressed areas where communication losses restrain disaster response and perplex rescue operations. In these areas, the fragile access networks such as cellular or Wi-Fi systems become congested or inaccessible, requiring a reliable emergency communication infrastructure. The proposed architecture involves Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), equipped with wireless technologies i.e., 3G/4G/5G/Wi-Fi systems, and manifestly Software Defined Radios (SDRs), enabling self-forming, self-organizing, and self-healing capabilities. The architecture uses a Hybrid Connectivity Module (HCM) which empowers cooperative communication capacities and abridge the technologies to achieve reliable communication link between UAVs, mobile-to-UAV, and UAV-to-mobile towards Ground Control Station (GCS) in catastrophic areas. The seamless connectivity via next generation SDR waveforms and designed algorithms ensure an implementation of versatile multi-user UAVs network. This enables the formation of a backbone network assisting ground devices to communicate GCS. For cooperative communication, the architecture provides a MAC-centric cross-layer protocol which offers efficient multihop routing between UAVs. The data (i.e., text, images, or voice) is routed to devices or GCS via UAVs, which can notify rescue services reliably and help to trace the catastrophic zones. Furthermore, the protocol helps to allocate network resources by creating virtual sub-nets for simultaneous interference-free data transmissions which maximizes the network throughput. The experimental results show the data latency far better than any other existing ad hoc routing protocol (e.g., OLSR or AODV) based designs which usually add delays in the emergency response operations.

Nuclear Challenges of Neglected Lessons of Chornobyl

The article is dedicated to the analysis of new nuclear challenges resulting from Russia’s nuclear blackmail and attacks at civic nuclear facilities in Ukraine. It is shown that Russia’s actions concerning civic nuclear facilities correspond to the criteria of nuclear terrorism and demonstrate the violation of the internationally accepted principles of non-proliferation and nuclear taboo. This attitude to potentially dangerous objects and behavior is rooted in the non-acceptance of the post-Chornobyl safety culture. For the Russian Federation, it is the exploitation of human fears of new nuclear disasters and radiation pollution. European and global communities in close cooperation with the Ukrainian authority, scientists, and civic society urgently need to work out efficient instruments to translate and convert nuclear fear and concern into efficient actions for the enforcement of international legislation in the sphere of nuclear safety and terrorism prevention and the empowerment of international institutions and organizations.

Bipartite consensus problems of Lurie multi-agent systems over signed graphs: A contraction approach

Abstract This paper examines the bipartite consensus problems for the nonlinear multi-agent systems in Lurie dynamics form with cooperative and competitive communication between different agents. Based on the contraction theory, some new conditions for the nonlinear Lurie multi-agent systems reaching bipartite leaderless consensus and bipartite tracking consensus are presented. Compared with the traditional methods, this approach degrades the dimensions of the conditions, eliminates some restrictions of the system matrix, and extends the range of the nonlinear function. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to illustrate the efficiency of our results.

Improving Performance of the Typical User in the Indoor Cooperative NOMA Millimeter Wave Networks with Presence of Walls

INTRODUCTION: The beyond 5G millimeter wave cellular network system is expecting to provide the high quality of service in indoor areas. OBJECTIVES: Due to the high density of obstacles, the cooperative communication technique is employed to improve the user's desired signal power by finding more than one appropriate station to serve that user. METHODS: While the conventional system utilizes additional equipment such as Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) and relays to enable the cooperative features, the paper introduces a new network paradigm that utilizes the second nearest Base Station (BS) of the typical user as the Decode and Forward (DF) relay. Thus, depends on the success of decoding the message from the user' serving BS of the second nearest BS, the typical user can work with and without assistance from the relay whose operation follows the discipline of the power-domain NOMA technique. In the case of with relay assistance, the Maximum Ratio Combining technique is utilized by the typical user to combine the desired signals. RESULTS: To examine the performance of the proposed system, the Nakagami-m and the newly developed path loss model, which considers the density of walls and their properties, are adopted to derive the coverage probability of the user with and without relay assistance. The closed-form expressions of this performance metric are derived by Gauss quadrature and Welch-Satterthwaite approximation.

Adolescent Depression: Impact of Family Relations

Depression is a major mental disorder that affects numerous people and causes them to experience depressive episodes. The root of depression usually appears in people’s teenage years. Research have shown that family relations, in particular, has the largest impact on the development and manifestation of depressive symptoms in teenagers. After reviewing pertinent literature, the specific components in family relations that are risk factors and protective factors for depressive symptoms in adolescents are identified. The risk factors for depressive symptoms in teenagers are mostly correlated with negative family emotions and actions, which includes parental criticism and expressed emotions, parental depression, lack of family cohesion and adaptability, lack of parental care, negative family emotional climate, and lack of physical affection and verbal intimacy. The protective factors revolve around adolescents’ ability to recognize and manage negative emotions, which includes emotion regulation, positive family climate and social support, emotion coaching, emotion clarity, and cooperative communication. Four recommendations for parents are offered based on these observed risk factors and protective factors to hinder and prevent the development of depression adolescents. These recommendations are social support, positive family atmosphere, physical affection, and verbal affection. It is hoped that studies in the future can focus on investigating the effectiveness of these recommendations and provide a more detailed and reliable list of recommendations for parents to reduce the chances of depression development in their children.

Research on Secure Community Opportunity Network Based on Trust Model

With the innovation of wireless communication technology and the surge of data in mobile networks, traditional routing strategies need to be improved. Given the shortcomings of existing opportunistic routing strategies in transmission performance and security, this paper proposes a community opportunistic routing decision-making method based on the trust model. This algorithm calculates the node’s trust value through the node’s historical forwarding behavior and then calculates the node’s trust value based on the trust model. Thresholds and trust attenuation divide dynamic security communities. For message forwarding, nodes in the security community are prioritized as next-hop relay nodes, thus ensuring that message delivery is always in a safe and reliable environment. On this basis, better relay nodes are further selected for message forwarding based on the node centrality, remaining cache space, and remaining energy, effectively improving the message forwarding efficiency. Through node trust value and community cooperation, safe and efficient data transmission is achieved, thereby improving the transmission performance and security of the network. Through comparison of simulation and opportunistic network routing algorithms, compared with traditional methods, this strategy has the highest transmission success rate of 81% with slightly increased routing overhead, and this algorithm has the lowest average transmission delay.

Citizen Science and Urban Home Gardeners’ Attitudes Toward Gardening

Citizen science is a participatory research method that enlists community members as scientists to collect data at a scale that would not be possible for researchers on their own and in research contexts that are difficult for researchers to reach. Although the contribution of citizen science to scientific data collection is well-known, a new area of research investigates the impact that citizen science programs have on the citizen scientists. Gardening can support healthy dietary patterns, food access, and food system resilience in urban communities. Leveraging home gardening can be a good way for cooperative extension and community groups to support the health and wellbeing of their community members. However, to reap the health and community benefits of gardening, individuals need to adopt the behavior of gardening. In this study, researchers from University of Florida conducted a home gardening citizen science program between Mar 2022 and Jul 2022 for the purpose of assessing whether participating in a citizen science home gardening program increases the likelihood of participants’ future home gardening. Researchers used a matched pretest and posttest evaluation design to assess whether participation in this program affected the citizen scientists’ (n = 112) beliefs, attitudes, and perceptions of home gardening. Citizen science program participants improved their attitudes and beliefs about home gardening but had limited improvement in their self-efficacy about home gardening after participation in the program. A 1-year follow-up survey found that program participants had adopted new gardening behaviors and reported benefits of participating in the program beyond gardening. These results highlight the value of citizen science to facilitate intentions to home garden and show the importance of information and program support to ensure the success of program participants.

NON-TIMBER FOREST PRODUCTS DEVELOPMENT: A SMALL BUSINESS STRATEGY OF WALNUT

The management of Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) holds significant benefits for forest-adjacent communities, including the potential for commercial ventures such as the walnut enterprise. This study aims to examine the walnut business in Onto Village, Bontomatene District, Selayar Islands Regency, Indonesia, analyse internal and external factors, and formulate a development strategy for the walnut business. This study employs SWOT analysis and the Analytic Hierarchy Process. The findings suggest that the walnut industry has the potential to be a profitable venture and a standout product in the region. Internal factor analysis indicates that the the availability of labour is the most significant strength (0.021) in the walnut business, while insufficient accessibility of commodity sources represents the most notable weakness (0.085). On the external front, a promising farming business emerges as the highest priority opportunity (0.146), whereas the absence of a walnut business development program poses the most significant threat (0.235). The prioritised strategy for implementation is the W-T2 strategy, with a value of 0.75, focusing on enhancing community and government cooperation to improve infrastructure, particularly roads leading to walnut fields.

시스템 사고 적용 미술 수업 방안 연구

The reclusive loner phenomenon causes problems that lead to social isolation and alienation, and the cause is a lack of social and family ties. This study attempted to propose an art class plan that applied systematic thinking to promote participatory communication between peers of adolescents who communicate only in the digital world and are reluctant to contact others directly. First, the theory of the importance of the educational application of systematic thinking and the effect of promoting communication of social participatory art activities that can apply social problems caused by the increase in adolescents with reclusive loner syndrome was reviewed. Second, through social participatory art activities, an art class plan was developed with the theme of 'Saving the Silent Loner' as a class design. Finally, a method was proposed to go beyond aesthetic empathy to reinterpret the embodied visual image by presenting art works that apply the cycle of analysis and inquiry, a systematic thinking process, as a practice of teaching and learning that encourages cooperative communication and consideration that should be treated as important in adolescence, and using mind maps to promote participatory communication. As a result of the study, it was discovered that art classes applying system thinking are a useful way to approach social problem solving beyond the individual level, such as the reclusive loner phenomenon. Therefore, system thinking should be continuously developed to create cooperative communication and consideration that should be important in adolescence.

Elevated caproic acid production from one-stage anaerobic fermentation of organic waste and its selective recovery by electro-membrane process

A constructed microbial consortia-based strategy to enhance caproic acid production from one-stage mixed-fermentation of glucose was developed, which incubated with acidogens (Clostridium sensu stricto 1, 11 dominated) and chain elongators (including Clostridium sensu stricto 12, Sporanaerobacter, and Caproiciproducens) acclimated from anaerobic sludge. Significant product upgrading toward caproic acid (8.31 g‧L−1) and improved substrate degradation was achieved, which can be greatly attributed to the lactic acid platform. Whereas, a small amount of caproic acid was observed in the control incubating with acidogens, with an average concentration of 2.09 g‧L−1. The strategy accelerated the shape and cooperation of the specific microbial community dominated by Clostridium sensu stricto and Caproiciproducens, which thereby contributed to caproic acid production via the fatty acid biosynthesis pathway. Moreover, the tailored electrodialysis with bipolar membrane enabled progressive up-concentration and acidification, allowing selective separation of caproic acid as an immiscible product with a purity of 82.58 % from the mixture.

Why is it Important for Family Physicians to Identify Reliable Sources of Information in the Digital Age?

Dear Editor, Accessing reliable information in the 21st century can be challenging, particularly with the ease of access to data through technology. For both society and health professionals, the integrity of information is of utmost importance. Evidence-based medicine (EBM) offers a framework for evaluating the reliability of sources through rigorous scientific methods, including experimentation, falsification, and data accumulation (1). Medical knowledge has historically evolved through continuous refinement, with evidence being established via repeated experiments and analyses. Reliable information stems from multiple confirmations rather than isolated findings. EBM uses a hierarchy of evidence to categorize research by its reliability, facilitating informed clinical decision-making. It presents a structured approach to medical diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up strategies based on evidence levels (Grade Practice Recommendations, A-D) (2). The importance of EBM is emphasized in the digital era, promoting a systematic and reliable presentation of information. To combat misinformation, it is important to exercise critical thinking and skepticism toward information sources. Accessing reliable medical information is of crucial importance, especially in times of crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic (3). Primary sources, including peer-reviewed journals, respected international guidelines, scientific reports, and reputable textbooks play a pivotal role in providing accurate and trustworthy information. For example, The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the Cochrane Library offer evidence-based information that has undergone peer review (5,6). The pandemic has highlighted the significance of open access to scientific publications, which has facilitated global information sharing and accelerated vaccine development, ultimately reducing morbidity and mortality rates. This event has underscored the necessity of reliable information sources and the importance of continued collaboration and cooperation in the scientific community. Misinformation, particularly on social media, can pose significant challenges when it comes to verifying the accuracy of online information. To differentiate between truth and falsehood, it is crucial to employ critical evaluation methods, such as cross-referencing multiple sources and examining evidence consistency. Educational initiatives on media and health literacy from a young age, as well as platforms dedicated to verifying claims, can play a vital role in countering misinformation (6). In the digital age, family physicians face both opportunities and challenges due to the abundance of online information. It is very important to acknowledge that quick access to a wide range of data is invaluable for informed decision-making in patient care. However, the vast amount of information available also poses the risk of encountering unreliable or outdated sources. Therefore, it is crucial to utilize reputable medical literature and evidence-based resources (7). For family physicians, it is important to remain up-to-date with the latest research and guidelines through respected indexes such as Web of Science, PubMed, and Scopus. This practice not only helps in delivering high-quality patient care but also supports lifelong learning and professional development (8). Additionally, recent global health crises have emphasized the need for quick access to accurate and reliable medical information to effectively address public health emergencies (6). Therefore, discerning and accessing reliable information sources are indispensable skills for family physicians in the digital age.
