Learning and coordinating in a multilayer network.

Published: January 2015

We introduce a two layer network model for social coordination incorporating two relevant ingredients: a) different networks of interaction to learn and to obtain a pay-off, and b) decision making processes based both on social and strategic motivations. Two populations of agents are distributed in two layers with intralayer learning processes and playing interlayer a coordination game. We find that the skepticism about the wisdom of crowd and the local connectivity are the driving forces to accomplish full coordination of the two populations, while polarized coordinated layers are only possible for all-to-all interactions. Local interactions also allow for full coordination in the socially efficient Pareto-dominant strategy in spite of being the riskier one.

This retrospective study compared the rate of feed intolerance in preterm neonates delivered at £ 30 weeks gestation who received pasteurised donor human milk (n = 83) versus preterm formula (n = 41) to meet the deficits in available volumes of mother's own milk in the first 2 weeks of life. Feed intolerance was not higher in neonates who received preterm formula than those who received pasteurized donor human milk (24.4% vs 20%; OR (95% CI) 0.

Background: Care transitions are complex and can make patients vulnerable to adverse events. Poor communication among clinicians, patients, and their caregivers is a critical gap during these periods of transition. Technology solutions such as platform-based patient-clinician digital health interventions (DHIs) can provide support and education to patients.

Midwives' and nurses' experiences of providing postnatal care in partnership: A cross-sectional study.

Women Birth

January 2025

Department of Nursing and Midwifery Education and Research, King Edward Memorial Hospital, Subiaco, Australia; School of Nursing, Curtin University, Bentley, Australia.

Problem: It is unknown whether the deployment of registered nurses to assist midwives in the provision of postnatal care eases the burden of workforce shortages.

Background: The largest public maternity health service in Western Australia began employing registered nurses in 2022 to assist midwives with the provision of postnatal care on maternity wards in response to staffing shortages, exacerbated by COVID-19.

Aim: To explore midwives' and registered nurses' experiences of providing postnatal care on maternity wards together.

Penn Neurodegeneration Genomics Center, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA, USA.

Background: The Genome Center for Alzheimer's Disease (GCAD) coordinates the integration and meta-analysis of all available Alzheimer's disease (AD) relevant whole genome sequencing (WGS) data to facilitate the goal of identifying AD risk or protective genetic variants and eventual therapeutic targets. The WGS datasets are generated via the collaboration of scientists from the Alzheimer's Disease Sequencing Project (ADSP) and GCAD. To minimize data heterogeneity introduced by different sequencing protocols and machines, GCAD processes all samples using identical pipelines.

Rapid Crystallization and Versatile Metalation of Acetylhydrazone-Linked Covalent Organic Frameworks for Heterogenous Catalysis.

J Am Chem Soc

January 2025

School of Physical Science and Technology, Shanghai Key Laboratory of High-Resolution Electron Microscopy, State Key Laboratory of Advanced Medical Materials and Devices, ShanghaiTech University, Shanghai 201210, China.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) hold promise in heterogeneous metal catalysis benefiting from their robust, crystalline, and porous structures. However, synthetic challenges persist in prolonged crystallization times, limited metal loading, and uncertain coordination environments. Here, we present the rapid crystallization and versatile metalation of new acetylhydrazone-linked COFs (AH-COFs) by condensation of ketone and hydrazide components, featuring full conversion within 30 min under open-air and mild conditions.
