The Powell Basin is a small oceanic basin bounded by continental blocks that fragmented during drifting of South America from Antarctica. The basin is limited to the east by the South Orkney Microcontinent, to the north by the South Scotia Ridge, and to the west by the Antarctic Peninsula. The timing of its opening is poorly constrained due to low amplitude magnetic anomalies which hampers their identification and cause large uncertainties in proposed ages that range from the Late Eocene to Early Miocene. The Powell basin has been extensively studied using a variety of geophysical methods including seismic, gravity and magnetic surveys intended to unveil the tectonic domains. The magnetic anomalies and the thermal regime of the basin are of particular interest, as some of these studies have suggested that the absence of clear seafloor magnetic anomalies is the result of impermeable layers that prevent the venting of hot fluids into the water column. Using new magnetic and heat flow data together with geophysical data from international databases, weanalyze the thermal structure of the Powell Basin its lithosphere and the upper mantle dynamics and discuss the probable causes of the abnormally small amplitudes of magnetic anomalies., The 28th IUGG General Assembly (IUGG2023) (Berlin 2023)

Ringvent is a young shallow saucer-shaped sill intrusion emplaced in the Guaymas Basin in the Gulf of California, Mexico. It is an active hydrothermal cooling magmatic intrusion that allows the evaluation of thermomechanical processes involved in the emplacement of these structures in rift environments, practically in real-time.This study aims to provide information about the mechanisms involved in sill emplacement by characterizing the physical properties in the contact zone between the sill and the host rock. The physical data used in this project was taken from ten logs and core samples drilled at the Ringvent site by the IODP 385 expedition. The data set includes measurements of density, permeability, p-wave velocities, and magnetic susceptibility that was analyzed, cleaned and plotted to find patterns in the sediment´s behavior around the sill contact area.As a result of the analysis, we found that some of the factors that contribute to the emplacement of Ringvent are a porosity reduction above the sill, a decrease in the speed of the P-wave velocity, a slight decay in magnetic susceptibility, and the existence of a high-stress resistance layer above the sill.These results were compared to another site in the Guaymas basin, where an older and deeper sill was emplaced, finding similar patterns. This correlation allows us to contribute to the discussion about the factors involved in sill emplacement and argue about if these observed changes are a result of thermal alteration by the sill, or in contrast, they are what determine the depth and shape of the sill., The 28th IUGG General Assembly (IUGG2023) (Berlin 2023)

The data publication contains the compilation of global heat-flow data by the International Heat Flow Commission (IHFC; www.ihfc-iugg.org) of the International Association of Seismology and Physics of the Earth's Interior (IASPEI). The presented data update 2023 contains data generated between 1939 and 2022 and constitutes the first intermediate update benefiting from the global collaborative assessment and quality control of the Global Heat Flow Database running since May 2021 (http://assessment.ihfc-iugg.org).

Reallocations of time between daily activities such as sleep, sedentary behavior and physical activity are differentially associated with markers of physical, mental and social health. An individual’s most desirable allocation of time may differ depending on which outcomes they value most, with these outcomes potentially competing with each other for reallocations. We aimed to develop an interactive app that translates how self-selected time reallocations are associated with multiple health measures. We used data from the Australian Child Health CheckPoint study (n = 1685, 48% female, 11–12 y), with time spent in daily activities derived from a validated 24-h recall instrument, %body fat from bioelectric impedance, psychosocial health from the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory and academic performance (writing) from national standardized tests. We created a user-interface to the compositional isotemporal substitution model with interactive sliders that can be manipulated to self-select time reallocations between activities. The time-use composition was significantly associated with body fat percentage (F = 2.66, P < .001), psychosocial health (F = 4.02, P < .001), and academic performance (F = 2.76, P < .001). Dragging the sliders on the app shows how self-selected time reallocations are associated with the health measures. For example, reallocating 60 minutes from screen time to physical activity was associated with -0.8 [95% CI -1.0 to -0.5] %body fat, +1.9 [1.4 to 2.5] psychosocial score and +4.5 [1.8 to 7.2] academic performance. Our app allows the health associations of time reallocations to be compared against each other. Interactive interfaces provide flexibility in selecting which time reallocations to investigate, and may transform how research findings are disseminated.

Myocardial revascularisation represents the most frequently performed therapeutic intervention worldwide. Current percutaneous and surgical revascularisation techniques provide excellent short- and long-term clinical outcomes. However, despite the technological and procedural advances with the widespread use of drug-eluting stents and arterial bypass grafts in contemporary practice, a considerable proportion of patients require repeat revascularisation procedures during long-term follow-up. The need for repeat revascularisation has a major impact on patients' quality of life and is associated with a significant economic burden. This consensus document summarises the views on the management of myocardial revascularisation failure of an expert panel of the European Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EAPCI). The present document provides a broad and pragmatic overview of the clinical management of myocardial revascularisation failure with a focus on the three key underlying mechanisms leading to repeat revascularisation: 1) failure of percutaneous coronary interventions, 2) failure of coronary artery bypass grafting, and 3) progression of coronary artery disease in native coronary segments previously untreated. The aim of the present position document is to provide a patient-oriented approach for the management of myocardial revascularisation failure.
