Letter: Ideal consultation.

Calling time on the 10-minute consultation [letter].

Detection is unsophisticated and currently inadequate; the guidance that 3 months is enough is not good enough and draws parallels with hypertension detection. Current evidence on intervention and effectiveness seems very light. I have asked everyone (including this journal) to provide me with a NNT for a patient with CKD III who need detecting and intervening with to prevent either a cardiovas...

Editorial Letter:

The consultation readiness scale: an attempt to improve consultation practice.

The Consultation Readiness Scale is designed to facilitate mental health and other forms of human services consultation. The scale is based on the assumption that consultee-consultant relationships vary in their "readiness" for consultation. A basic task for consultants is to assess the current readiness level and help move the relationship to a higher level. The Consultation Readiness Scale fa...

Ideal Multilinear Maps based on Ideal Lattices

Cryptographic multilinear maps have many applications, such as multipartite key exchange and software obfuscation. However, the encodings of three current constructions are “noisy” and their multilinearity levels are fixed and bounded in advance. In this paper, we describe a candidate construction of ideal multilinear maps by using ideal lattices, which supports arbitrary multilinearity levels....
