Fusing talent horizons: the transformative role of data integration in modern talent management
Authors: Asfahani Ahmed M. 
Published: March 2024

AbstractThis study elucidates the transformative influence of data integration on talent management in the context of evolving technological paradigms, with a specific focus on sustainable practices in human resources. Historically anchored in societal norms and organizational culture, talent management has transitioned from traditional methodologies to harnessing diverse data sources, a shift that enhances sustainable HR strategies. By employing a narrative literature review, the research traces the trajectory of HR data sources, emphasizing the juxtaposition of structured and unstructured data. The digital transformation of HR is explored, not only highlighting the evolution of Human Resource Information Systems (HRIS) but also underscoring their role in promoting sustainable workforce management. The integration of advanced technologies such as machine learning and natural language processing is examined, reflecting on their impact on the efficiency and ecological aspects of HR practices. This paper not only underscores the imperative of balancing data-driven strategies with the quintessential human element of HR but also provides concrete examples demonstrating this balance in action for practitioners and scholars in sustainable human resources.
Health risk assessment of exposure to benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes in a vehicle manufacturing industry in Iran
Authors: Sadeghi Amin Sina , Nasrabadi Touraj 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Introduction
Considering the adverse carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic health effects of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) and specially Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene and Xylenes (BTEX) which are widely used in vehicle manufacturing industry, it is clear that monitoring and control of occupational exposure to these substances is of utmost significance. More often than not the studies on occupational exposure to VOCs in vehicle manufacturing industry—specifically BTEX—have been carried out exclusively in paint shop units. The purpose of this study was to assess occupational BTEX exposure & health risk in different units of a vehicle manufacturing industry.

Material and methods
Foam injection unit (FIU), gluing unit (GU), repair shop unit (RSU), molding unit (MU) as well as paint shop units (PSU) were selected for this study. Sampling and analysis were conducted based on National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) 1501 guidelines by utilizing MSA personal sampling pumps set to 0.2 l/m and Gas Chromatography equipped with Flame Ionization Detector (GC-FID). Risk characterization and assessment was performed using Environmental Protection Agency Risk Assessment Information System (EPA RAIS).

Results and conclusion
The results revealed that the concentration of benzene in gluing and paint shop units was above occupational exposure limits. Carcinogenic risk levels in 8 out of 10 units registered in the 1E-2 to 1E-4 range, and only two units registered a risk level below EPA’s acceptable risk level (10–6). The highest risk levels were measured in gluing, paint shop and repair shop units. Furthermore, the total non-carcinogenic hazard quotient was measured higher than 1 in 8 out of 10 studied units. Considering the abundance and wide use of VOCs -most notably BTEX- and the adverse carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic health effects of these compounds, it is advised to: change the type of paint used in paint shops, improve the existing ventilation systems, develop new and more efficient ventilation systems and conduct consistent training.
Theosis and Religion
Authors: Russell Norman 
Published: March 2024

Theosis, originally a Greek term for Christian divinisation or deification, has become a vogue word in modern theology. Although recent publications have explored its meaning in a selection of different contexts, this is the first book to offer a coherent narrative of how the concept of theosis developed in both its Eastern and Western versions. Norman Russell shows how the role of Dionysius the Areopagite was pivotal, not only in Byzantium but also in the late mediaeval West, where it strengthened the turn towards an individualistic interiority. Russell also relates theosis to changing concepts of religion in the modern age. He investigates the Russian version of theosis, introduced in the West by Russian members the Paris School after the 1917 Revolution. Since then, theosis has undergone additional development through the addition of esoteric elements which have since passed into the mainstream of all theological traditions and even into popular spirituality.
Chinese Perspectives on the Rule of Law in International Economic Law
Authors: Xiao Jun 
Published: March 2024

AbstractIn the currently volatile global economic environment, China’s perspectives on the rule of law in international economic law are of significance. In principle, China shares developing countries’ attitudes towards international economic law. China also seeks to play a constructive role in the development of international economic law, endorsing a flexible and pragmatic approach. China has concluded international trade and investment treaties designed to constrain its policy space and is an active supporter of the World Trade Organization’s dispute settlement and investor-state dispute settlement mechanisms, with a good record of compliance. Recent trade tensions demonstrate challenges for the international rule of law but also emphasise the role of law in overcoming political challenges.
Between automated memory and history: blocking ‘sensitive locations’ from Apple Memories
Authors: Vilvang Chrys 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
In April 2022, journalists at the tech website 9to5Mac discovered that photographs taken at sites related to the Holocaust would no longer appear in the Memories feature of Apple's Photos app. This article examines how news of this decision was received by the public through analysis of the comment section that followed the original 9to5Mac post. The perspectives on display in this public forum provide insight into the evolving public perception of automated memory technologies and the potential consequences of their use. Through this analysis, several interrelated areas of public concern emerge. These include the boundaries of platform intervention for governing access to content, the subjective qualities of personal photographs, and the metrics upon which algorithmic memory systems operate. Though opinions vary, this comment section captures an illustrative range of sentiment towards Apple Memories and this intervention into the memories of its users. This range demonstrates a degree of scepticism, alarm, and dissatisfaction rising among users who are increasingly aware of how algorithms are influencing their memories.
Two new species of the genus Lecidella (Lecanoraceae, Ascomycota) from maritime Antarctica, southern South America and North America

Published: March 2024

AbstractTwo new species of the genus Lecidella, one with a North American-maritime Antarctic distribution and one with a so far exclusively southern South American-maritime Antarctic distribution, are described using molecular and morphological tools. Lecidella ayazii is a species growing on soil and also on mosses and has so far been found on the Antarctic Peninsula, as well as in the alpine areas of the La Sal Mountains, Utah, USA and in the Kivalliq Region (Nunavut) in the north of Canada, whereas L. drakensis occurs mainly on siliceous rocks, rarely on mosses, and has been recorded on both sides of the Drake Passage in southern Patagonia and the Antarctic Peninsula. Phylogenetic analysis of the nrITS sequence data shows that both species belong in the L. elaeochroma clade, each forming a highly supported and distinct group. Furthermore, they also differ in morphological and chemical characters from the species described so far in this clade. In addition, five further accessions were recorded from the maritime Antarctic, which were placed in the cosmopolitan and heterogeneous L. stigmatea clade, of which one could be assigned to the bipolar species L. siplei.

AbstractIndividuals with mood disorders are predisposed to metabolic dysfunction, while those with metabolic dysregulation such as diabetes and obesity experience more severe depressive symptoms. Both metabolic dysfunction and mood disorders are independently associated with cognitive deficits. Therefore, given their close association, this study aimed to explore the association between metabolic dysfunction in individuals with mood disorders in relation to cognitive outcomes. A comprehensive search comprised of these three domains was carried out; a random-effects meta-analysis pooling mean cognitive outcomes was conducted (PROSPERO ID: CRD42022295765). Sixty-three studies were included in this review; 26 were synthesized in a quantitative meta-analysis. Comorbid metabolic dysregulation was associated with significantly lower global cognition among individuals with mood disorders. These trends were significant within each mood disorder subgroup, including major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, and self-report depression/depressive symptoms. Type 2 diabetes was associated with the lowest cognitive performance in individuals with mood disorders, followed by peripheral insulin resistance, body mass index ⩾25 kg/m2, and metabolic syndrome. Significant reduction in scores was also observed among individual cognitive domains (in descending order) of working memory, attention, executive function, processing speed, verbal memory, and visual memory. These findings demonstrate the detrimental effects of comorbid metabolic dysfunction in individuals with mood disorders. Further research is required to understand the underlying mechanisms connecting mood disorders, metabolism, and cognition.
Impartial Spectators and Legislators: Adam Smith and Religion
Authors: Lentz Rachel , Tuckness Alex 
Published: March 2024

AbstractThe eighteenth century is often thought of as an important era for the secularization of British philosophy. One dimension of this secularization involves philosophers developing theories that, while not explicitly rejecting God, are less reliant on claims about God for their intelligibility and plausibility. A comparison of Adam Smith with his teacher, Francis Hutcheson, reveals an underappreciated facet of this process. Hutcheson portrayed God as an impartial legislator and used this metaphor to clarify contested moral rules in a way that would make little sense if God did not exist. In contrast, Smith's impartial spectator does not require belief in a God who is the author of the moral law in order to determine the correct interpretation of contested moral principles. By pursuing this alternative conception of impartiality, Smith developed a theory that was, in this respect, less reliant on religious premises than Hutcheson's had been.
Actuarial applications of natural language processing using transformers: Case studies for using text features in an actuarial context
Authors: Troxler Andreas , Schelldorfer Jürg 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
This paper demonstrates workflows to incorporate text data into actuarial classification and regression tasks. The main focus is on methods employing transformer-based models. A dataset of car accident descriptions with an average length of 400 words, available in English and German, and a dataset with short property insurance claims descriptions, are used to demonstrate these techniques. The case studies tackle challenges related to a multilingual setting and long input sequences. They also show ways to interpret model output and to assess and improve model performance, by fine-tuning the models to the domain of application or to a specific prediction task. Finally, the paper provides practical approaches to handle classification tasks in situations with no or only few labelled data. The results achieved by using the language-understanding skills of off-the-shelf natural language processing (NLP) models with only minimal pre-processing and fine-tuning clearly demonstrate the power of transfer learning for practical applications.

AbstractUsing data from the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) mission, we explore the plasma properties of Martian magnetotail current sheets (CS), to further understand the solar wind interaction with Mars and ion escape. There are some CS exhibit energetic oxygen ions that show narrow beam structures in the energy spectrum, which primarily occurs in the hemisphere where the solar wind electric field (Esw) is directed away from the planet. On average, these CS have a higher escaping flux than that of the CS without energetic oxygen ion beams, suggesting different roles in ion escape. The CS with energetic oxygen ion beams exhibits different proton and electron properties to the CS without energetic oxygen ion beams, indicating their different origins. Our analysis suggests that the CS with energetic oxygen ion beams may result from the interaction between the penetrated solar wind and localized oxygen ion plumes.
New Magnetotelluric Data Reveal Deep Fault Boundaries and Contrasting Late Cenozoic Fault Kinematics Between the Qilian Shan Thrust Wedge and Beishan‐Alxa Block, Western China

AbstractThe structural connectivity and kinematic relationship between the Altyn Tagh sinistral strike‐slip fault (ATF) and Qilian Shan fold‐and‐thrust belt along the north Tibetan margin east of 96°E is an important question for tectonicists interested in the evolving active deformation field of Central Asia and associated earthquake hazards of China's Hexi Corridor region. New results from a detailed 130‐km‐long N‐S magnetotelluric (MT) survey from the Qilian Shan to Beishan elucidates the locations and down‐dip orientations of major faults. Importantly, the results indicate that the Heishan‐Jinta’Nanshan fault system roots steeply into the lower crust, is unconnected to the Qilian Shan thrust wedge, and has reactivated the margin of the North China Craton and an older, regional ductile shear belt. The structurally linked ATF‐Heishan‐Jinta’Nanshan system defines a fundamental kinematic boundary in central Asia between the NE directed Qilian Shan thrust belt to the south and the eastwardly extruding Beishan‐Alxa Block to the north.
Ocean Bottom Distributed Acoustic Sensing for Oceanic Seismicity Detection and Seismic Ocean Thermometry
Authors: Shen Zhichao , Wu Wenbo 
Published: March 2024

AbstractA T‐wave is a seismo‐acoustic wave that can travel a long distance in the ocean with little attenuation, making it valuable for monitoring remote tectonic activity and changes in ocean temperature using seismic ocean thermometry (SOT). However, current high‐quality T‐wave stations are sparsely distributed, limiting the detectability of oceanic seismicity and the spatial resolution of global SOT. The use of ocean bottom distributed acoustic sensing (OBDAS), through the conversion of telecommunication cables into dense seismic arrays, is a cost‐effective and scalable means to complement existing seismic stations. Here, we systematically investigate the performance of OBDAS for oceanic seismicity detection and SOT using a 4‐day Ocean Observatories Initiative community experiment offshore Oregon. We first present T‐wave observations from distant and regional earthquakes and develop a curvelet denoising scheme to enhance T‐wave signals on OBDAS. After denoising, we show that OBDAS can detect and locate more and smaller T‐wave events than regional OBS network. During the 4‐day experiment, we detect 92 oceanic earthquakes, most of which are missing from existing catalogs. Leveraging the sensor density and cable directionality, we demonstrate the feasibility of source azimuth estimation for regional Blanco earthquakes. We also evaluate the SOT performance of OBDAS using pseudo‐repeating earthquake T‐waves. Our results show that OBDAS can utilize repeating earthquakes as small as M3.5 for SOT, outperforming ocean bottom seismometers. However, ocean ambient natural and instrumental noise strongly affects the performance of OBDAS for oceanic seismicity detection and SOT, requiring further investigation.

AbstractDespite the successful application of immune checkpoint therapy, no response or recurrence is typical in lung cancer. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been identified as a crucial player in immunotherapy-related resistance. Ferroptosis, a form of cell death driven by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, is highly regulated by cellular metabolism remolding and has been shown to have synergistic effects when combined with immunotherapy. Metabolic adaption of CSCs drives tumor resistance, yet the mechanisms of their ferroptosis defense in tumor immune evasion remain elusive. Here, through metabolomics, transcriptomics, a lung epithelial-specific Cpt1a-knockout mouse model, and clinical analysis, we demonstrate that CPT1A, a key rate-limiting enzyme of fatty acid oxidation, acts with L-carnitine, derived from tumor-associated macrophages to drive ferroptosis-resistance and CD8+ T cells inactivation in lung cancer. Mechanistically, CPT1A restrains ubiquitination and degradation of c-Myc, while c-Myc transcriptionally activates CPT1A expression. The CPT1A/c-Myc positive feedback loop further enhances the cellular antioxidant capacity by activating the NRF2/GPX4 system and reduces the amount of phospholipid polyunsaturated fatty acids through ACSL4 downregulating, thereby suppressing ferroptosis in CSCs. Significantly, targeting CPT1A enhances immune checkpoint blockade-induced anti-tumor immunity and tumoral ferroptosis in tumor-bearing mice. The results illustrate the potential of a mechanism-guided therapeutic strategy by targeting a metabolic vulnerability in the ferroptosis of CSCs to improve the efficacy of lung cancer immunotherapy.

AbstractBridging therapy before CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell infusion is frequently applied in patients with relapsed or refractory Large B-cell lymphoma (r/r LBCL). This study aimed to assess the influence of quantified MATV and MATV-dynamics, between pre-apheresis (baseline) and pre-lymphodepleting chemotherapy (pre-LD) MATV, on CAR T-cell outcomes and toxicities in patients with r/r LBCL. MATVs were calculated semi-automatically at baseline (n = 74) and pre-LD (n = 68) in patients with r/r LBCL who received axicabtagene ciloleucel. At baseline, patients with a low MATV (< 190 cc) had a better time to progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS) compared to high MATV patients (p < 0.001). High MATV patients who remained stable or reduced upon bridging therapy showed a significant improvement in TTP (p = 0.041) and OS (p = 0.015), compared to patients with a high pre-LD MATV (> 480 cc). Furthermore, high MATV baseline was associated with severe cytokine release syndrome (CRS, p = 0.001). In conclusion, patients with low baseline MATV had the best TTP/OS and effective reduction or controlling MATV during bridging improved survival outcomes in patients with a high baseline MATV, providing rationale for the use of more aggressive bridging regimens.

Published: March 2024

AbstractColorectal cancer (CRC) is a malignancy that is widely prevalent worldwide. Due to its unsatisfactory treatment outcome and extremely poor prognosis, many studies on the molecular mechanisms and pathological mechanisms of CRC have been published in recent years. The tumor microenvironment (TME) is an extremely important feature of tumorigenesis and one of the hallmarks of tumor development. Metabolic reprogramming is currently a hot topic in tumor research, and studies on this topic have provided important insights into CRC development. In particular, metabolic reprogramming in cancer causes changes in the composition of energy and nutrients in the TME. Furthermore, it can alter the complex crosstalk between immune cells and associated immune factors, such as associated macrophages and T cells, which play important immune roles in the TME, in turn affecting the immune escape of tumors by altering immune surveillance. In this review, we summarize several metabolism-related processes affecting the immune microenvironment of CRC tumors. Our results showed that the immune microenvironment is regulated by metabolic reprogramming and influences the development of CRC.
