Identity theft involves someone deliberately using another person's identity without permission, usually to obtain financial benefits or credit in that person's name. Victims may first learn of identity theft when they receive bills or invoices for things they did not order or debt collection notices for debts that are not theirs. Identity theft affects millions of Americans each year and can have significant negative impacts on victims through debts, damaged credit, and time spent resolving the issue while also causing emotional distress. Offenders are subject to criminal penalties like imprisonment, fines, and restitution. It is important for everyone to take precautions to prevent identity theft by protecting personal information and passwords online.

- Dr. C. Henry Kempe's work in the 1960s drew attention to child abuse and led states to enact mandatory reporting laws requiring professionals like physicians to report suspected abuse. By the 1970s these laws also applied to school personnel.
- School counselors consistently underreport suspected abuse despite daily contact with children, but fear liability for inaccurate reports. However, all states provide immunity for reports made in good faith, and failure to report is the only actionable offense.
- Advocates push for increased liability to encourage more reporting, as existing penalties like fines are insufficient and not often pursued criminally. Ethical guidelines also require counselors to report suspected abuse.
Denial Management: The Ways We Lie to Ourselves & Others & What We Ca...Terry Low
This document discusses denial and the various ways people lie to themselves and others. It outlines 12 types of denial including the big 5 (avoidance, minimization, absolute denial, rationalizing, blaming) and the little seven (democratic disease state, flight into health, manipulation, compliance, scared straight, strategic hopelessness, comparing). The document notes that while denial can be healthy, maladaptive denial prevents people from effectively handling problems. It suggests denial is best addressed through education in a group format to minimize shame.
Domestic violence harms not only victims, but also those around them such as family, friends, and children. Children who witness domestic violence may experience fear, guilt, shame, and physical ailments. Domestic violence is dangerous and can escalate to injury or death. Victims of domestic violence are not alone and help is available.
This document discusses child abuse and neglect for EMS providers. It outlines that EMS providers are often the first to identify abuse due to their interaction with children. They have a moral and legal duty to report any suspected abuse. The document provides guidance on recognizing various types of abuse through physical signs and inconsistencies in stories. It emphasizes thorough documentation of all findings and statements to support the investigation and protect providers from liability. EMS providers are told to suspect abuse if injuries do not match the history, there are prior issues in the home, or signs of repeated abuse.
Child abuse is the physical, sexual or emotional maltreatment or neglect of a child or children.[1] In the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Department for Children And Families (DCF) define child maltreatment as any act or series of acts of commission or omission by a parent or other caregiver that results in harm, potential for harm, or threat of harm to a child.[2] Child abuse can occur in a child's home, or in the organizations, schools or communities the child interacts with. There are four major categories of child abuse: neglect, physical abuse, psychological or emotional abuse, and sexual abuse.
In Western countries, preventing child abuse is considered a high priority, and detailed laws and policies exist to address this issue. Different jurisdictions have developed their own definitions of what constitutes child abuse for the purposes of removing a child from his/her family and/or prosecuting a criminal charge. According to the Journal of Child Abuse and Neglect, child abuse is "any recent act or failure to act on the part of a parent or caretaker which results in death, serious physical or emotional harm, sexual abuse or exploitation, an act or failure to act which presents an imminent risk of serious harm".[3]
However, Douglas J. Besharov, the first Director of the U.S. Center on Child Abuse and Neglect, states "the existing laws are often vague and overly broad"[4] and there is a "lack of consensus among professionals and Child Protective Services (CPS) personnel about what the terms abuse and neglect mean".[5] Susan Orr, former head of the United States Children's Bureau U.S. Department of Health and Services Administration for Children and Families, 2001–2007, states that "much that is now defined as child abuse and neglect does not merit governmental interference".
Child abuse and neglect is a major health problem all over the world. In most of the cases the perpetrator is someone whom the child or the parent knows. April has been designated Child Abuse Prevention Month in the United States since 1983. U.S. President Barack Obama continued that tradition by declaring April 2009 Child Abuse Prevention Month.

Notice: Contains confidential information.
Colossal Corporation maintains a subsidiary in Serafini, a small country in Eastern Europe. This subsidiary is incorporated in the state of Delaware as New Brand Design, Inc. (NBD), a company that designs, brands, and manufactures innovative electronic products, and markets and distributes them for resale across the globe. NBD has been admitted to conduct business in Serafini.
NBD has been manufacturing and distributing a laptop computer with 360-degree technology. The thin tablet can easily convert into a laptop by flipping the screen over and locking it in place against the back of the keyboard. The laptop, marketed under the name Dualplex 360 is very popular and is distributed primarily in Western Europe, North America, and South Africa.
The Dualplex 360 went on the market six months ago, and the product is selling out in the United States and Europe. Unfortunately, consumers have reported that some laptops that were shipped to the United States have overheated and ignited when they have remained plugged into a power source for too long. In a few cases, the laptops have burned users and damaged property.
NBD’s research and development team was fully aware of the overheating problem when putting the Dualplex 360 on the market but performed a cost-benefit analysis and determined that the payouts from lawsuits would be less than the cost of redesigning and manufacturing a new laptop. The research and development team covered up the defect but included the following disclaimer in the instruction manual:
DO NOT LEAVE THE DUALPLEX 360 PLUGGED IN TO A POWER SOURCE AFTER THE BATTERY IS FULLY CHARGED. SELLER EXPLICITLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES. SELLER MAKES NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE. NOR IS THERE ANY OTHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY.
The instruction manual contained no other warnings regarding the possibility of overheating or danger. To date, all instances of overheating have resulted from consumers ignoring the warning and leaving their computers plugged in after the battery is fully charged, although some claim they never read the instruction manual so did not see the warning.
The executive board of NBD has reached out to the CEO of Colossal to discuss these issues and the potential that NBD will be held liable for the overheating laptops and resulting injuries and damage to property. The CEO informed the board that the company’s international task force will research and address these concerns.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Adults who abuse children often make their victims afraid to tell
anyone what has happened. Each community must advocate for
these vulnerable children by making the public aware of the signs
of abuse and reporting suspected incidents.
Many children who are experiencing physical abuse have bruises,
burns, or other marks that are difficult to explain. Bruises that
retain the shape of the object used, such as a hand or belt, are
particularly common red flags, as are bruises on different planes of
the body. For example, a bruise on the thigh and one on the
opposite arm are unlikely to stem from a fall or other accident.
3. Child Abuse
• Adults should also be watchful of bruises or burns that affect areas
not usually injured. Marks on the neck, torso, and buttocks may be
signs of intentionally inflicted harm, as may lacerations of the eye,
lip, or other parts of the face. Rope burns are suspicious, as are
burns that indicate immersion in hot liquid or prolonged contact
with a hot surface.
Children's behavior may also suggest abuse.When a child appears
afraid to go home or intensely wary of adults, the reason may be
that adults have proven themselves untrustworthy. Children who
are extremely uncomfortable with nonthreatening physical contact
and children who withdraw from or act out against others may also
be experiencing abuse.
