Plagioclase disequilibrium induced during fluid‐absent biotite‐breakdown melting in metapelites

In the Bandelierkop Quarry (South Marginal Zone of the Limpopo belt), two generations of leucosome contain peritectic garnet produced by incongruent melting of biotite‐bearing assemblages, either in the presence or absence of sillimanite, respectively. This study focuses on mineral inclusions in large garnet crystals from both leucosome generations, which, in rare cases, host an abundance of euhedral plagioclase inclusions with variable compositions. Plagioclase in the residuum adjacent to the leucosomes ranges from An32 to An39, while the euhedral plagioclase inclusions are considerably more calcic with compositions that range from An50 to An83. These grains are also significantly zoned, with inclusions displaying both Na‐ and Ca‐enriched rims. Garnet zoning directly adjacent to the inclusions demonstrates that the Ca‐rich nature of the inclusions is not a consequence of Ca‐uptake from garnet. The euhedral plagioclase inclusions are interpreted to reflect disequilibrium during anatexis due to slow diffusion in plagioclase. Thus, the kinetic pathway followed by the incongruent melting reaction appears to be one where only the outer portions of the reactant plagioclase grains were involved, via dissolution, not diffusion, and with the precipitation of new Ca‐rich peritectic plagioclase as a consequence. This is predictable, as the coupled substitutions involved in plagioclase solid solution result in very slow intracrystalline diffusion of the major elements, while plagioclase dissolution in granitic melt is faster by several orders of magnitude. Phase equilibrium modelling demonstrates that the Ca‐content of the peritectic plagioclase is inversely proportional to the amount of plagioclase that participates in the fluid‐absent incongruent melting reaction in biotite‐bearing metapelites, with the specific compositions of the peritectic grains, reflecting local variations in effective bulk composition as the melting reaction progressed. The variation in composition and zoning patterns within plagioclase inclusions from individual garnet grains is interpreted to reflect melt segregation and flow simultaneously with garnet growth, allowing individual garnet grains to trap euhedral peritectic plagioclase grains that had formed within a range of effective bulk compositions. The preservation of this unusual garnet, which was most likely due to rapid and efficient melt loss from the residual source, as well as rapid cooling, provides a rare insight into the details of the anatectic process.
Autecology of Scleroconidioma sphagnicola particularly in Šumava National Park (Czech Republic).

The anamorphic fungal species Scleroconidioma sphagnicola was repeatedly isolated from spruce and pine litter needles in Šumava National Park. The morphology of thirteen strains of this fungal species was compared; oxidative enzymes and possible parasitism on Sphagnum in vitro were tested. Our results showed that all of the strains differed from the original description in only one characteristic – microsclerotia lacked conidiogenous cells on their surface. All strains produced laccase and peroxidase, eleven strains produced polyphenol oxidases. Inoculation of Sphagnum species resulted in only negligible colonisation. We suppose that Scleroconidioma sphagnicola in the studied area does not parasite on Sphagnum. This conclusion is supported by the fact that strains of Scleroconidioma sphagnicola were isolated from needles lying among Sphagnum, but no diseased plants were found. Results of our previous experiments with Scleroconidioma sphagnicola dealing with decomposition of spruce litter needles and competition with other fungal species are summarised.
Good Corporate Governance Principles act as Mediators of The Influence of Organizational Commitment, Leadership, and Organizational Culture on Employee Performance

Purpose – This study aimed to determine the influence of good corporate governance principles as an intervening variable on organizational commitment, leadership, and organizational culture on employee performance.Methodology/approach – The population includes all employees of one of Pertamina's subsidiaries, namely PT Pertamina Training and Consulting, located at DKI Jakarta. Probabilistic sampling technique with simple random sampling was used, obtaining a sample of 162 employees. The method of data analysis used is the partial least squares structural equation (SEM-PLS). Findings – The research results show that the variables of organizational commitment, leadership and organizational culture have a positive and significant impact on employee performance and on good corporate governance principles. In addition, good corporate governance principles partially mitigated the significant positive effects of organizational commitment, leadership, and organizational culture on employee performance.Novelty/value – Companies should increase employee commitment to the business by focusing on employee results, enhancing professionalism in corporate governance and implementing employee promotion programs. The relationships in the concepts of this study and potential avenues for further development in future research may involve exploring associations with employee performance and looking at variables related to behavior, attitudes, or other factors that affect employee performance.
Video Quality Prediction: An Exploratory Study With Valence and Arousal Signals

With the explosion of online video consumption, assessing and anticipating how users will evaluate the content they watch has become increasingly important. Traditional methods based on explicit user feedback are often limited in their ability to do this, as they can be time-consuming and expensive to collect. This study explores techniques to predict users’ ratings about a video’s ability to evoke emotions through emotional signals. In particular, it is proposed a method of emotional analysis that uses valence and arousal data as key signals for predicting user ratings through systems that use machine-learning techniques. Hence, an experiment in the wild involved 112 participants who completed questionnaires to create a dataset of emotional data and video quality ratings to train different intelligent systems. The best system comprised a Medium Gaussian Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier that detected users’ ratings between Ineffective and Effective based on valence and arousal features as input, achieving an accuracy higher than 87%. The result demonstrated that it is possible to predict users’ ratings on the ability of the movie to elicit emotion, using users’ emotional states in terms of valence and arousal. The system has several advantages, such as eliminating the need for user reports, predicting user ratings in real-time more quickly and dynamically, and utilizing only the initial emotional state to predict users’ ratings. In addition, it has potential applications in advertising, education, and entertainment fields. Advertisers could better understand how consumers perceive their products and create more effective advertising campaigns; educational institutions could develop more engaging and effective learning materials; entertainment providers could create more popular and successful content.
Symptom trajectories of post-COVID sequelae in patients with acute Delta or Omicron infection in Bergen, Norway

Introduction A substantial proportion of the over 700 million COVID-19 cases world-wide experience long-term symptoms. The objectives of this study were to compare symptom trajectories and risk factors for post-COVID-19 condition after Delta and Omicron infection. Methods This study consecutively recruited patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection from November 2021 to March 2022. We recorded demographics, comorbidities, vaccination status, sick leave, and 18 symptoms during acute infection and after 4 months. The primary outcome measures were symptoms during acute infection and after 4 months. Secondary outcome measures were work and school absenteeism. Results We followed a cohort of 1,374 non-hospitalized COVID-19 patients in Bergen, Norway, at three time points. The median age was 39.8 years and 11% were children <16 years. Common acute upper respiratory symptoms waned during follow-up. Fatigue remained common from acute infection (40%) until after 4 months (37%). Four months post-infection, patients reported increased frequencies of dyspnea (from 15% during acute illness to 25% at 4 months, p < 0.001), cognitive symptoms (from 9 to 32%, p < 0.001) and depression (from 1 to 17%, p < 0.001). Patients infected with Omicron reported less dyspnea (22% versus 27%, p = 0.046) and smell/taste problems (5% versus 19%, p < 0.001) at 4 months follow-up than those with Delta infection. Comorbidities and female sex were risk factors for persistent dyspnea and cognitive symptoms. Ten percent reported sick leave after acute illness, and vaccination reduced the risk of absenteeism (adjusted risk ratio: 0.36, 95% confidence interval: 0.15, 0.72, p = 0.008). Conclusion At 4 months, home-isolated patients infected with Omicron reported overall comparable symptom burden, but less dyspnea and smell/taste problems than Delta infected patients. Several acute symptoms waned during follow-up. It is worrying that dyspnea, neurocognitive symptoms, and particularly depression, increased significantly during the first 4 months after acute infection. Previous vaccination was protective against prolonged sick leave.

This article investigates the impact of conflict on socioeconomic well-being through measuring changes in post conflict levels of schooling, livelihood, and income, and also seeks to understand the challenges faced by IDPs from the Federally Administered Tribal Areas located in Jalozai Camp, Khyber Punkhtoonkhwa (KP). The results of a survey analysis indicate significant gaps in educational attainment due to displacement and this impacts socioeconomic well-being.
Antecedents of Innovative Work Behavior in the Public Sector (Study at The Regional Revenue Agency of West Java Province)

This study aims to analyze the factors that influence innovative work behavior in the Public Sector, namely in the Regional Revenue Agency of West Java Province. The role of mediating, organizational citizenship, behavior, and knowledge-sharing is tested in the influence of transformational leadership on innovative work behavior. The quantitative approach with survey methods is used in this research. Data collection is a cross-section of data. The questionnaire was distributed to 300 samples, using stratified random sampling techniques, collected as many as 292, and exceeded the minimum sample number of 273 employees. The results showed the factors that influence innovative work behavior are transformational leadership is mediated by organizational citizenship behavior but not by knowledge-sharing. This study found that transformational leadership has a positive effect on innovative work behavior, also through organizational citizenship behavior. Indirect influence has a greater estimated coefficient value compared to direct influence. Knowledge sharing acts as a variable that directly affects innovative work behavior. In future research, it is necessary to expand testing with different variables and research methods.
Simulation Study on Temperature and Stress Fields in Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr Alloy during CMT Additive Manufacturing Process

A new heat source combination, consisting of a uniform body heat source and a tilted double ellipsoidal heat source, has been developed for cold metal transfer (CMT) wire-arc additive manufacturing of Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr alloy. Simulations were conducted to analyze the temperature field and stress distribution during the process. The optimal combination of feeding speed and welding speed was found to be 8 m/min and 8 mm/s, respectively, resulting in the lowest thermal accumulation and residual stress. Z-axis residual stress was identified as the main component of residual stress. Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) testing showed weak texture strength, and Kernel Average Misorientation (KAM) analysis revealed that the 1st layer had the highest residual stress, while the 11th layer had higher residual stress than the 6th layer. Microhardness in the 1st, 11th, and 6th layers varies due to residual stress impacts on dislocation density. Higher residual stress increases dislocation density, raising microhardness in components. The experimental results were highly consistent with the simulated results.
International Evidence on Well-Being

National Time Accounting is a way of measuring society's well-being, based on time use. Its explicit form is the U-index, for "unpleasant" or "undesirable", which measures the proportion of time an individual spends in an unpleasant state. In this paper I review cross-country evidence on happiness and life satisfaction and consider whether these data will likely be replaced by the U-index. I find that first, that there are many similarities. According to both measures happiness is higher for the more educated, for married people, for those with higher income and for whites and lower for the unemployed; is U-shaped in age and un-trended over time in the USA although they are trended up in a number of EU countries and especially so in developing countries. Equivalent results are found using self-reported unhappiness data. Second, there is a large body of data on happiness that is unavailable on the U-index. For example, according to happiness research well-being across nations is lower the higher is the unemployment rate, the current inflation rate and the highest inflation rate in a person's adult life. Higher inequality also lowers happiness. Third, we know little about the predictive power of the U-index. Happiness and life satisfaction data seem able to forecast migration flows. Fourth, happy people are particularly optimistic about the future. Fifth, according to the happiness data the US ranks above France but the U-index suggests the reverse.
Reproductive and Oncologic Outcomes in Young Women with Stage IA and Grade 2 Endometrial Carcinoma Undergoing Fertility-Sparing Treatment: A Systematic Review

Background: Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecological malignancy in both Europe and the USA. Approximately 3–5% of cases occur in women of reproductive age. Fertility-sparing treatment (FST) options are available, but very limited evidence regarding grade 2 (G2) ECs exists in the current literature. This systematic review aimed to comprehensively evaluate reproductive and oncologic outcomes among young women diagnosed with stage IA or G2EC disease who underwent FST. Methods: A comprehensive search of the literature was carried out on the following databases: MEDLINE, EMBASE, Global Health, The Cochrane Library (Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Methodology Register), the Health Technology Assessment Database, and Web of Science. Only original studies that reported the oncologic and reproductive outcomes of patients with stage IA and G2EC tumors who underwent FST were considered eligible for inclusion in this systematic review (CRD42023484892). Studies describing only the FST for endometrial hyperplasia or G1 EC were excluded. Results: Twenty-two papers that met the abovementioned inclusion criteria were included in the present systematic review. Preliminary analysis suggested encouraging oncologic and reproductive outcomes after FST. Conclusions: The FST approach may represent a feasible and safe option for women of childbearing age diagnosed with G2EC. Despite these promising findings, cautious interpretation is warranted due to inherent limitations, including heterogeneity in study designs and potential biases. Further research with standardized methodologies and larger sample sizes is imperative for obtaining more robust conclusions.
Detection of Fraud Through Professional Scepticism

Purpose – This study aims to determine the factors influencing the auditor's ability to detect fraud through professional scepticism. Methodology/approach – This research method is quantitative and descriptive. The primary data collection technique uses a questionnaire distributed to the supervisory auditors of central government agencies working at the Central BPKP in the DKI Jakarta Region, Indonesia. Sampling using the purposive sampling method obtained several 40 respondents. Data analysis tools use multiple linear regression analysis and path analysis. Findings – The results showed that the auditor's competence and the internal control system positively affected professional skepticism, but workload did not affect professional skepticism. Meanwhile, professional skepticism has a significant positive impact on the auditor's ability to detect fraud. Novelty/value – The existence of an attitude of professional skepticism will be better able to analyze fraudulent acts in the financial statements so that the auditor will increase the detection of fraud in the next auditing process.
Geochemistry of Geothermal Fluids in the Three Rivers Lateral Collision Zone in Northwest Yunnan, China: Relevance for Tectonic Structure and Seismic Activity

The Three Rivers Lateral Collision Zone (TRLCZ), situated at the southeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, is a crucial frontier where materials from the plateau flow southeastward. This study extensively investigated the hydrochemical characteristics and origin of helium and carbon isotopes in 73 thermal springs within the TRLCZ. The analysis revealed dominant processes, including carbonate and silicate interactions, resulting in elevated concentrations of HCO3− and Na+. The impact of Ca/Mg-rich minerals, particularly dolomite, influenced the cation composition. Additionally, gypsum dissolution, notably in the Lancangjiang Fault and Weixi–Qiaohou Fault, was highlighted through Ca/SO4 ratios. The positive correlation between SO42− and Cl− indicated dilution by shallow cold water, explaining the lower SO42− content in the Jingshajiang–Zhongdian Fault and Nujiang Fault compared to the Weixi–Qiaohou Fault and Lancangjiang Fault. The circulation depth of thermal spring water varied, with the northern Weixi–Qiaohou Fault exhibiting the shallowest circulation depth (~3 km), while the Jingshajiang–Zhongdian Fault and southern segments of the Nujiang Fault displayed deeper depths—ranging from 4 to 7 km. A positive correlation between the circulation depth and fault activity was also observed. The Rc/Ra ratios of free gas samples, predominantly indicating crustal origin, varied from 0.01 Ra to 0.53 Ra. Elevated Rc/Ra ratios in the research area suggested potential minor additions of mantle helium through faults and fractures. Crustal limestone was identified as the primary source of CO2-rich samples, with δ13CCO2 values ranging from −1.6‰ to −7.2‰, while trace amounts of mantle CO2 were found. The spatial distribution of the H2 concentration, CO2 concentration, He concentration, and mantle He proportions in gases indicated that higher values of He concentration and mantle He% always occur near sampling points with deeper circulation depths. However, no similar correlation was observed for H2 and CO2. Most earthquakes of magnitude 5 or greater occurred near the regions with high values of mantle source He release, highlighting the critical role of mantle fluids in the occurrence of earthquakes in the region. In this study, a fluid circulation model was developed to describe the process of fluid (water and gas) circulation migration and earthquake generation in the TRLCZ.
Yields on Sovereign Debt, Fragmentation and Monetary Policy Transmission in the Euro Area: A GVAR Approach

The divergence in sovereign yields has been presented as a reason for the lack of traction of monetary policy. We use a GVAR framework to assess the transmission of monetary policy in the period 2005-2016. We identify sovereign yield divergence as a key mechanism by which the leverage channel of monetary policy worked. Unconventional monetary policy was successful in mitigating this effect. When exploring the channels through which yields may affect the heterogeneous transmission of monetary policy, we find that the reaction of bank leverage depended substantially on where the sovereign yield originated, thus providing a mechanism that explains this heterogeneity. Second, large spillover effects meant that yield divergence decreased the traction of monetary policy even in anchor countries. Third, the heterogeneity in the transmission mechanism can be in part attributed to contagion from euro area wide sovereign stress. Fiscal credibility, therefore, may be an appropriate tool to enhance the output effect of monetary policy. Given the importance of spillovers, this credibility may be achieved by changes in the institutional make up and policies in the euro area.
