INITIAL STUDY ON TRUST COMPUTATION BASED ON TENSOR AND LIE ALGEBRA IN COMPLEX NETWORKS

2026-01-08T22:33:51+08:00

Trust computation in complex networks is a crucial topic for systems

involving interactions among agents, such as recommendation platforms,

multi-agent systems, and social networks. This paper presents a novel

framework combining tensor-based feature modeling and Lie algebraic

dynamics to formally define and compute trust. We model measures

such as dispatch, familiarity, responsibility, and influence in tensor form

and propose a trust function based on weighted features. We then use Lie

algebra to encode the structural evolution of trust over time and derive

key mathematical properties. This approach enables robust and dynamic

trust inference in large-scale and evolving networks.

APPROXIMATING TRUST FUNCTIONS FROM MODELS IN NEURON NETWORK AND LIE ALGEBRA

2026-01-08T22:34:22+08:00

This paper is to describe a tensor representation of features needed

for trust computing in complex networks. Then we propose a novel hy-

brid framework that functionally approximates trust functions defined

over multi-dimensional trust tensors using both neural networks and Lie

algebra-based mappings. The approximation capability of neural net-

works in this context and utilize Lie group structures are to capture

structural symmetries and behaviors in trust propagation.

ASSESSMENT OF THE RESULTS OF TRANSURETHRAL RESECTION OF THE PROSTATE (TURP) FOR BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA AT HUE CENTRAL HOSPITAL

2026-01-08T22:33:06+08:00

This study aims to evaluate the treatment outcomes for benign pro-

static hyperplasia (BPH) using transurethral resection of the prostate

(TURP) at Hue Cetral Hospital in 2024. A cross- sectional descriptive

study was conducted on patients diagnosed with BPH who underwent

TURP. Clinical characteristics, intraoperative findings, and postopera-

tive outcomes were analyzed. Key parameters included preoperative In-

ternational Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), quality of life (QoL) scores,

uroflowmetry, and surgical complications classified by the Clavien-Dindo

system. Most patients showed significant improvement in urinary symp-

toms and quality of life postoperatively. The majority had reduced IPSS

scores, increased maximum urinary flow rates (Qmax), and improved

QoL scores. Postoperative complications were minimal, with no life-

threatening events recorded.

PSYCHOLOGICAL BURDENS AND INTERVENTION STRATEGIES FOR PEOPLE LIVING WITH HIV/AIDS: A LITERATURE REVIEW

2026-01-08T22:44:11+08:00

Background: While advances in antiretroviral therapy (ART) have

transformed HIV/AIDS from a fatal disease into a manageable condition,

people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWH) continue to face significant psy-

chological burdens. These include stigma, depression, anxiety, and diﬃ-

culties in treatment adherence, all of which severely compromise quality

of life.

Objective: This study aims to systematically review recent liter-

ature to explore the psychological burdens associated with HIV/AIDS,

identify the psychosocial factors aﬀecting mental health, and evaluate the

eﬀectiveness of psychological interventions designed to support PLWH.

Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted using academic databases including PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar, covering studies published between 2015 and 2024. Inclusion criteria focused on peer-reviewed studies addressing psychological outcomes among PLWH. Data were analyzed using thematic content analysis and grouped into key categories.

Results: The findings highlight three major themes: (1) the non-

linear psychological adjustment process of PLWH, which often involves

phases of denial, anxiety, depression, and eventual acceptance; (2) the

pervasive influence of stigma—particularly internalized stigma—on men-

tal health and treatment outcomes; and (3) the demonstrated eﬀective-

ness of multi-level psychological interventions, including Cognitive Be-

havioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Interventions (MBIs), and

resilience-focused approaches, in improving mental health and adherence

to ART.

Conclusions: Addressing the psychological burden of HIV/AIDS

requires an integrated and culturally sensitive approach that includes

routine mental health screening, stage-specific psychological care, stigma

reduction strategies, and family and community support. Future research

should prioritize longitudinal, technology-driven, and cross-cultural stud-

ies to enhance the eﬀectiveness and accessibility of psychosocial interven-

tions.

A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW OF DISEASE KNOWLEDGE, PERCEIVED SUSCEPTIBILITY AND COMPLIANCE BEHAVIORS AMONG POST-KIDNEY TRANSPLANT PATIENTS: INSIGHTS FROM GLOBAL AND VIETNAMESE STUDIES

2026-01-08T22:47:37+08:00

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) represents a significant global public

health challenge, with kidney transplantation serving as the most eﬀec-

tive treatment for end-stage renal disease (ESRD). However, the success

of kidney transplantation is contingent not only upon the surgical pro-

cedure but also on patient adherence to post-transplant care, including

medication regimens, lifestyle modifications, and regular follow-up. This

literature review aims to systematically synthesize global and Vietnamese

studies on the impact of disease knowledge, perceived susceptibility, and

compliance behaviors among post-kidney transplant patients. Key find-

ings reveal that higher levels of disease knowledge and perceived sus-

ceptibility are strongly associated with better adherence and improved

patient outcomes. However, cultural beliefs and socio-economic barriers

significantly aﬀect compliance behaviors, especially in low- and middle-

income countries like Vietnam. The review highlights the importance of

culturally tailored interventions to enhance patient education and sup-

port, which are critical for improving long-term transplant outcomes.

Recommendations for future research include the need for longitudinal

studies and the development of targeted interventions to address these

specific barriers in diﬀerent cultural contexts.

A COMPARATIVE EXAMINATION OF PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHER TRAINING ROUTES IN ENGLAND AND VIETNAM

2026-01-08T22:50:50+08:00

Becoming a primary school teacher in England and Vietnam involves

distinct pathways shaped by diﬀerent educational systems, cultural con-

texts, and professional requirements. In England, aspiring primary teach-

ers typically complete a university degree followed by a post-graduate

Initial Teacher Training (ITT) program, which includes both academic

coursework and practical classroom experience. This is followed by the

award of Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). The focus in England is on

a comprehensive approach to teaching, incorporating a broad curricu-

lum with an emphasis on critical thinking and student-centered learning.

In contrast, Vietnam’s process of becoming a primary teacher typically

involves completing a specialized teacher education program at a univer-

sity, followed by a state exam and certification. Teaching in Vietnam

is more traditionally structured, with a focus on knowledge transmis-

sion and discipline, and professional development opportunities are often

more limited compared to those in England. This comparative analysis

explores the diﬀerences in training requirements, teaching methodolo-

gies, and career development opportunities for primary teachers in both

countries, highlighting the influence of cultural, policy, and pedagogical

factors in shaping the profession.
