Purpose – This paper reports on banking and finance professionals' decision making in the context of elder financial abuse. The aim was to identify the case features that influence when abuse is identified and when action is taken. Design/methodology/approach – Banking and finance professionals (n=70) were shown 35 financial abuse case scenarios and were asked to judge how certain they were that the older person was being abused and the likelihood of taking action. Findings – Three case features significantly influenced certainty of financial abuse: the nature of the financial problem presente

Abstract:
Elder abuse is an underdetected, under-reported issue with severe consequences. Its detection presents unique challenges based on characteristics of this vulnerable population, including cognitive impairment, age-related deconditioning, and an increased number of co-morbidities, all of which predispose to increase vulnerability to injury. While radiologists play a critical role in detection of child abuse, this role is currently not paralleled in detection of elder abuse.

Abstract Browser fingerprinting is a stateless tracking technique that aims to combine information exposed by multiple different web APIs to create a unique identifier for tracking users across the web.

Existing approaches are limited to detecting a specific fingerprinting technique(s) at a particular point in time.

We investigated the detection and awareness of child sexual abuse by examining case notes. Child sexual abuse was recorded in 4.7% of cases. There was no evidence that enquiry about child sexual abuse or detection of the problem had increased in recent years, and recording of the details of abuse was rare. Victims received more psychological help and less medication than others. We conclude that awareness of the issue has not increased. Previous findings about child sexual abuse are rarely used in evaluation, and diagnosis and drug treatment may be overlooked in some victims.

The availability of numerous synthetic steroids and recombinant peptide hormones has made testing an analytical challenge. Recent advances in mass spectrometry have provided an opportunity to decrease detection limits. The Atlanta Olympic Games in 1996 marked the first time every specimen was screened by gas chromatography (GC) coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (MS). A further improvement may be seen with GC/MS/MS and quadrupole ion traps. Electrospray HPLC/MS has als

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Under-detection and under-reporting of child abuse remains a considerable challenge in paediatric care, with a high number of cases missed each year in Switzerland and abroad. Published data regarding the obstacles and facilitators of detecting and reporting child maltreatment among paediatric nursing and medical staff in the paediatric emergency department (PED) are scarce. Despite the existence of international guidelines, the measures taken to counteract the incomplete detection of harm done to children in paediatric care are insufficient.

<p><strong>Introduction:</strong> Primary health care professionals are in a privileged position to recognize and manage cases of suspected elder abuse. The purpose of this study was to provide some insight of these professionals’ views and knowledge on this subject.<br /><strong>Material and Methods:</strong> A questionnaire was elaborated and sent to physicians and nursing staff practicing in 12 different health care units in Coimbra. The data collected included parameters related to demography, perception of abuse and management strategies, personal exper

Abstract:
The rapid development of online social media makes abuse detection a hot topic in the field of emotional computing. However, most natural language processing (NLP) methods only focus on linguistic features of posts and ignore the influence of users’ emotions. To tackle the problem, we propose a multitask framework combining abuse detection and emotion classification (MFAE) to expand the representation capability of the algorithm on the basis of the existing pretrained language model. Specifically, we use bidirectional encoder representation from transformers (BERT) as the encoder to generate s

Abstract:
Posterior fourchette lacerations are suggestive of sexual assault, and toluidine blue dye has increased the detection of these lacerations in adult rape victims. This study investigated the use of toluidine blue dye in the pediatric (0 to 10 years) and adolescent (11 to 18 years) patients to detect posterior fourchette lacerations in sexually abused and control populations. Application of toluidine blue dye increased the detection rate of posterior fourchette lacerations from 4% (1/25) to 28% (7/25) (P < .05, Fisher exact test) in adolescent sexually abused patients and from 16.5% (4/24

Abstract Background: The analytic performance and accuracy of drug detection below Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) cutoffs is not well known. In some patient populations, clinically significant concentrations of abused drugs in urine may not be detected when current SAMHSA cutoffs are used. Our objectives were to define the precision profiles of three immunoassay systems for drugs of abuse and to evaluate the accuracy of testing at concentrations at which the CV was <20%. Methods: Drug-free urine was supplemented with analytes to assess the precision i

Abstract:
Child abuse is a critical social issue. The orthopedic surgeon’s role is essential in noticing signs and symptoms of physical abuse. For this reason, several authors have proposed scoring systems to identify abuse early on and reduce undiagnosed cases. The aim of this systematic review is to overview the screening tools in the literature. In 2021, three independent authors performed a systematic review of two electronic medical databases using the following inclusion criteria: physical child abuse, questionnaire, survey, score, screening tool and predictive tool.

Abstract:
Up to 30% of all hospital admissions and health-care costs may be attributable to alcohol abuse. Ethanol, its oxidative metabolites, acetaldehyde and ROS (reactive oxygen species), non-oxidative metabolites of alcohol [e.g. FAEEs (fatty acid ethyl esters)] and the ethanol–water competition mechanism are all involved in the deregulation of glycoconjugate (glycoprotein, glycolipid and proteoglycan) metabolic processes including biosynthesis, modification, transport, secretion, elimination and catabolism.
