Does the Mantle Contribute to Granite Petrogenesis?

The Buzzword: Employee Engagement. Does Person-Organization Fit Contribute to Employee Engagement?

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between person-organization value fit and employee engagement, as well as to develop a new scale for measuring organizational engagement. We considered person-organization fit with a degree of similarity between personal values and organizational values. These values were measured by the Organizational Culture Profile (OCP). We divided employee e...

Petrogenesis of mantle peridotites from the South of Jazmourian, Makran accretionary prism, Iran

Mantle peridotites exposed in south Jazmourian comprise of lherzolite and porphyroclastic Cpx-bearing harzburgite in the lower part with chromitite lenses in the upper parts. Petrography and microprobe studies shows evidence of melt-peridotite interactions; post melting processes and subsolidus interactions, which has been associated with appearance of two generations of deformed primary pyroxe...

KIR Gene Content Does Not Contribute to Susceptibility to Graves’ Disease

Background: Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) are expressed on NK cells and a subset of T cells. The variable KIR receptors along with their ligands, HLA class I, influence risk for autoimmune and malignant diseases. Objective: To investigate the KIR gene profiles in relation to susceptibility to Graves’ disease in patients with ophthalmopathy. Methods: KIR genes profiles were ana...

Does Conditioning Contribute to Kindling? 1 Does Inadvertent Conditioning Contribute to the Major Features of Kindling?

Conventional kindling experiments appear ideal for generating inadvertent conditioned effects: A variety of stimuli (e.g., removal from the home cage, attachment to the stimulation lead, and placement in the stimulation environment) are repeatedly presented to the animal prior to each stimulation and convulsion. We recently demonstrated that the stimulation environment can have a major impact o...
