title: Supplementary Material for: Serum myostatin at dialysis initiation may predict 1-year mortality and hospitalization

description: Objective: Myostatin, which is known as a negative skeleton muscle regulator, is associated with mortality in maintenance hemodialysis patients. However, the significance of serum myostatin concentrations at dialysis initiation has not been established. We investigated the relation between serum myostatin concentrations and mortality or hospitalization within one year in incident dialysis patients.
Methods: After a patient initiating hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis during 2016–2018 was enrolled, the patient’s serum myostatin at dialysis initiation was measured. Composite outcomes comprising mortality and hospitalization within 1 year after dialysis initiation were compared between two groups divided according to myostatin levels. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess significant relations between myostatin and outcomes.
Results: This study examined 104 incident dialysis patients with mean age of 65.5±14.0 (68% male). Kaplan–Meier analyses indicated the 1-year hospitalization-free and survival rate as significantly lower in the lower myostatin group than in the higher myostatin group (p = .0020). Cox proportional hazards regression analyses revealed that the value of myostatin logarithm at dialysis initiation was inversely associated with the occurrence of a composite outcome, independently of age (hazard ratio 0.16, 95% confidence interval 0.05–0.57). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed the area under the curve of serum myostatin for predicting death or hospitalization within 1 year as higher than those of clinical indices of nutritional disturbance and frailty.
Conclusion: Serum myostatin concentration at dialysis initiation is inversely associated with adverse outcomes in these dialysis-initiated patients.

title: Supplementary Material for: The Effectiveness of Dialectical Behavior Therapy Compared to Schema Therapy for Borderline Personality Disorder: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

description: Introduction
In the treatment of borderline personality disorder (BPD), there is empirical support for both dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) and schema therapy (ST); these treatments have never been compared directly. This study examines whether either of them is more effective than the other in treating patients with BPD. 
Methods
In this randomized, parallel-group, rater-blind clinical trial, outpatients aged between 18 and 65 with a primary diagnosis of BPD were recruited in a tertiary outpatient treatment center (Lübeck, Germany). Participants were randomized to DBT or ST with one individual and one group session per week over 1.5 years. The primary outcome was the BPD symptom severity assessed with the mean score of the Borderline-Personality Disorder Severity Index at 1-year naturalistic follow-up.
Results
Between November 26, 2014, and December 14, 2018, we enrolled 164 patients (mean age=33.7 [SD=10.61] years). Of these, 81 (49.4%) were treated with ST and 83 (50.6%) with DBT, overall, 130 [79.3%] were female. Intention-to-treat-analysis with generalized linear mixed models did not show a significant difference at 1-year naturalistic follow-up between DBT and ST for the BPDSI total score (mean difference 3.32 [95% CI –0.58-7.22], p=.094, d=-24 [-0.69; 0.20]) with lower scores for DBT. Pre-to-follow-up effect sizes were large in both groups (DBT: d=2.45 [1.88 - 3.02], ST: d=1.78 [1.26 - 2.29]). 
Conclusion
Patients in both treatment groups showed substantial improvements indicating that even severely affected patients with BPD and various comorbid disorders can be treated successfully with DBT and ST. An additional non-inferiority trial is needed to show if both treatments are equally effective.
Trial was retrospectively registered on German Clinical Trials Register, DRKS00011534 without protocol changes.

title: Supplementary Material for: Efficacy and safety of phytotherapy and anthroposophic medicine in seasonal allergic rhinitis: A systematic review

description: Introduction: Seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR) is a common health condition that is associated with an increased risk for bronchial asthma. Besides conventional medicine, treatments from traditional, complementary and integrative medicine (TCIM) are widely used by individuals with SAR. This review aims to systematically summarize evidence on the efficacy, effectiveness and safety of European/Western phytotherapy (PT) and medications from anthroposophic medicine (AM) in individuals with SAR. Methods: Four electronic databases were screened for clinical studies published between January 1990 and March 2023. The results were qualitatively synthesized and the study quality was assessed. Results: In total, 14 studies were included, eleven from European/Western PT and three from AM. About half of the studies were rated as being of sufficient quality. The most frequently studied plant was Petasites hybridus (butterbur), showing beneficial effects on immunological parameters, subjective symptoms and nasal airflow. Beneficial immunological and clinical effects were also shown for an herbal preparation combining Citrus limonis (lemon) and Cydonia oblonga (quince). The medications examined by studies of sufficient quality were judged to be safe. Conclusion: In summary, this systematic review highlights two herbal preparations, one from European/Western PT and one from AM, that appear to be promising options in the treatment of SAR.

title: Absolute Localization in Feature-poor Industrial Confined Spaces

description: Autonomous inspection of dark, confined, and feature-poor spaces requires robotic platforms to utilize accurate and reliable localization systems for safe and reliable operation. This paper presents an absolute localization system for highly feature-poor spaces, using visual inertial odometry and GPU-based point cloud registrations for limited field-of-view sensors. The extracted structural elements from sensor scans, along side IMU measurements, are used to limit the search area for the GPU-based point cloud registrations. We employ Stein-ICP which is an uncertainty aware variant of ICP. The 3D registrations are then fused with a visual-inertial odometry estimate in an Extended Kalman Filter to provide a fast and accurate absolute pose estimate. The proposed localization system is tested in both a simulated environment and in a mock-up model of a chemical distillation column — both highly feature-poor areas.

title: Machine Learning Application for Lambert’s Problem

description: This study presents a neural network Lambert’s approximator, a novel approach to address Lambert’s problem using deep learning. The main contribution lies in providing a means to approximate transfer trajectories for preliminary mission design, utilizing machine learning in conjunction with prior knowledge in astrodynamics. By normalizing the gravitational parameter of a central body and initial distance, this approach is applicable to any two-body system, encompassing not only interplanetary trajectories but also moon tour problems. The proposed neural network model, trained on a dataset of transfer trajectories, demonstrates efficiency in approximating these trajectories. The study delves into the neural network architecture, training methodology, and performance evaluation, highlighting the potential of this approach to enhance the efficiency of preliminary mission design processes. The performance evaluation of the presented approximation approach is conducted with a Porkchop plot validation, speed test, and mission design applications such as the Cassini trajectory and Europa Clipper trajectory.

title: In-situ, real-time methane sensor for vents and seeps

description: To meet the need for better analysis of ocean methane, we have developed an in-situ gas sensor, that combines a novel laser absorption spectrometer with a membrane-free approach to water sampling. The sensor was designed for real-time measurements of methane concentration and isotope ratio at depths down to 3000 m and is useful for scientific studies as well as energy exploration. We describe the design, development, and utilization of the sensor. Including presenting data from measurements at deep-sea hydrothermal vents on two recent scientific research cruises: July 2022 and March-April 2023.

title: Two decades of Arctic sea-ice thickness from satellite altimeters: Retrieval approaches and record of changes (2003-2023)

description: There now exists two decades of basin-wide coverage of Arctic sea ice from three dedicated polar-orbiting altimetry missions (ICESat, CryoSat-2, and ICESat-2) launched by NASA and ESA. Here, we review our retrieval approaches and discuss the composite record of Arctic ice thickness (2003–2023) after appending two more years (2022–2023) to our earlier records. The present availability of five years of snow depth estimates—from differencing lidar (ICESat-2) and radar (CryoSat-2) freeboards—have benefited from the concurrent operation of two altimetry missions. Broadly, the dramatic volume loss (5500 km3) and Arctic-wide thinning (0.6 m) captured by ICESat (2003–2009), primarily due to the decline in old ice coverage between 2003 and 2007, has slowed. In the central Arctic, away from the coasts, the CryoSat-2 and shorter ICESat-2 records show nearnegligible thickness trends since 2007, where the winter and fall ice thicknesses now hover around 2 m and 1.3 m, from a peak of 3.6 m and 2.7 m in 1980. Ice volume production has doubled between the fall and winter with the faster-growing seasonal ice cover occupying more than half of the Arctic Ocean at the end of summer. Seasonal ice behavior dominates the Arctic Sea ice’s interannual thickness and volume signatures.

title: VECTORIZED DYNAMIC SIZE GENETIC ALGORITHM FOR FAST FLYBY SEQUENCE GENERATION

description: Optimizing flyby sequences for an interplanetary mission poses a significant challenge due to the unknown number of optimal flyby sequences involved. Traditional global optimization algorithms typically require a fixed number of design variables, which limits their applicability to such problems. Even when the number of flybys is determined, the sheer volume of possible combinations makes it computationally expensive to optimize each sequence. This study presents a Vectorized Dynamic Size Genetic Algorithm (VDSGA), a method aimed at efficiently generating optimal flyby sequences. To enhance computational speed in the evaluation of objective functions, a Neural Network Lambert's Approximator (NNLA) is employed within the approach. VDSGA demonstrates a significant reduction in computational time for generating optimal flyby sequences. The accuracy and feasibility of the preliminary design solutions via this approach are also investigated.

title: Synoptic Influences on the Diurnal Cycle of Rainfall over Puerto Rico

description: The objective of this study is to understand rainfall processes over tropical islandsby identifying synoptic conditions that influence the diurnal cycle of rainfall over Puerto Rico. Summer rainfall over Puerto Rico is dominated by its afternoon peak, yet there is large variability in its behavior that remains challenging to predict. We use radiosonde and airborne data collected through the NASA CPEX-AW field campaign (August-September 2021) to achieve our objective, in addition to the network of surface station data over the island. We find that the background windspeed and humidity have strong influences on afternoon rainfall through different mechanisms. Astronger background wind inhibits afternoon rainfall likely by reducing land-sea thermal contrast and weakening sea breeze convergence over the island. At the same time, an inversion layer oftenforms with a stronger background wind that further inhibits deep convection. When the background weekwind is weak and sea breezes are prominent, afternoon rainfall increases exclusively over the island, while limited rainfall appears over the surrounding ocean. However, enhanced rainfall still occurs over the island with weak sea breezes if humidity is high, accompanied by enhanced rainfall over the surrounding ocean due to the offshore movement and development of convective storms. The sources of variability in background wind and humidity are mostly independent resulting in a wide range of synoptic conditions and associated effects on the island rainfall. This expanded understanding of the mechanismmechanisms causing variability of diurnal rainfall can lead to improved forecasts over Puerto Rico and other tropical islands.

title: Habitable World Observatory Modeling -Optical and Metrology Models, and Performance Predictions

description: The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) is a future NASA flagship mission which will use a segmented telescope and coronagraphic instruments to discover and characterize exoplanets, including exoEarths – Earth-like planets orbiting other stars. HWO will require extraordinary optical stability, with wavefront drift performance measured in the picometers. This paper explores how active control of the telescope optics, using metrology systems that include laser distance gauges, segment edge sensors, and picometer precision actuators, can provide the needed telescope stability. Together with wavefront sensing and deformable mirrors in the coronagraph, this approach can control the entire coronagraphic beam train, to stabilize the electric field in the coronagraph. The HWO Technology Assessment Group is developing three “Exploratory Analytic Cases,” which are conceptual designs for HWO that differ in some aspects, to provide a basis for detailed analysis. This paper addresses EAC1, a deployed-aperture concept that draws on JWST heritage. EAC1 uses 19 1.8-meter hexagonal segments to form its off-axis Primary Mirror (PM), as sketched in Figure 1. EAC2 will use fewer, larger “keystone” segments in a non-deployed off-axis PM configuration, and EAC3 will be a larger, on-axis deployed telescope using smaller keystone shaped segments.

title: TOI-1685 b is a Hot Rocky Super-Earth: Updates to the Stellar and Planet Parameters of a Popular JWST Cycle 2 Target

description: We present an updated characterization of the TOI-1685 planetary system, which consists of a Pb =0.69 day USP super-Earth planet orbiting a nearby (d = 37.6 pc) M2.5V star (TIC 28900646, 2MASS J04342248+4302148). This planet was previously featured in two contemporaneous discovery papers, but the best-fit planet mass, radius, and bulk density values were discrepant allowing it to be interpreted either as a hot, bare rock or a 50% H2O / 50% MgSiO3 water world. TOI-1685 b will be observed inthree independent JWST cycle two programs, two of which assume the planet is a water world while the third assumes that it is a hot rocky planet. Here we include a refined stellar classification with a focus on addressing the host star’s metallicity, an updated planet radius measurement that includes two sectors of TESS data and multi-color photometry from a variety of ground-based facilities, and a more accurate dynamical mass measurement from a combined CARMENES, IRD, and MAROON-X radial velocity data set. We find that the star is very metal-rich ([Fe/H] ≃ +0.3) and that the planet is systematically smaller, lower mass, and higher density than initially reported, with new best-fit parameters of Rpl= 1.468 +0.050−0.051 R⊕ and Mpl= 3.03+0.33−0.32 M⊕. These results fall in between the previously derived values and suggest that TOI-1685 b is a hot, rocky, planet with an Earth-like density (ρpl= 5.3 ± 0.8 g cm−3, or 0.96 ρ⊕), high equilibrium temperature (Teq = 1062 ± 27 K) and negligible volatiles, rather than a water world

title: Orbit Determination Demonstration Using Onboard One-Way Radiometrics from the Iris Radio on the CAPSTONE Mission

description: Onboard one-way radiometric tracking from an Iris radio paired with a Chip Scale Atomic Clock (CSAC) on NASA’s CAPSTONE mission has been col-lected and demonstrated to be able to determine its near rectilinear halo orbit. This is a first-ever demonstration of one-way radiometric tracking originating from the DSN and being collected onboard a spacecraft. For CAPSTONE, the tracking data from the Iris/CSAC pair are shown to have sufficient accuracy to enable future autonomous radio navigation for missions with modest navigation requirements. This work will compare the space-based data with prior ground-based test results, as well as assess CAPSTONE’s orbit solution accuracy from the one-way data and compare it to ground two-way tracking solutions.

title: ExEp: Demonstration of Spectral Linear Dark Field Control on NASA’s High Contrast Imaging Testbeds

description: In order to directly image Earth like exoplanets (exo-Earths) orbiting sun-like stars, a space-based coronagraph will be required to suppress the starlight by a factor of 10−10. Coronagraphs use active methods of wavefront sensing and control (WFSC) such as pairwise probing (PWP) and electric field conjugation (EFC) to create regions of high contrast in the science camera image, called dark holes. Due to the low flux of these exo-Earths, long exposure times are required to spectrally characterize them. During these long exposures, the optical system tends to drift degrading the contrast. Unfortunately one cannot simply reuse PWP as it modulates the intensity in the image plane, interrupting the science acquisition. A wavefront sensing and control loop could be running in parallel during the science acquisition without modifying the dark hole to prevent the contrast from drifting. Spectral linear dark field control (LDFC) takes advantage of the linear relationship between the change in intensity of the out-of-band light, called the sensing band, and small changes in wavefront to stabilize the dark hole region during science exposures. The advantage of the linear relationship simplifies the WFSC algorithms required to maintain the dark hole contrast. We are able to use an extension of the singular value decomposition (SVD) psuedoinverse to perform iterative modal control. This control algorithm allows us to place loop gains and leaks on the eigenmodes themselves. In this paper, we show experimental results which demonstrate spectral LDFC can be used to stabilize contrast levels of approximately 10−9 on a Lyot coronagraph testbed which is housed in a vacuum chamber. Promising results show that spectral LDFC can be used to correct for disturbances that degrade the contrast by more than 100x. To our knowledge, this is the first experimental demonstration of spectral LDFC and the first demonstration spatial or spectral LDFC on a vacuum coronagraph testbed and at contrast levels less than 1 × 10^−8.

title: Dragonfly Phase B Mission Design

description: The Dragonfly mission is designed to conduct a scientific survey of Titan with a relocatable lander and is enabled by a high-energy Delta-V Earth Gravity Assist (ΔV-EGA3+) trajectory. The trajectory utilizes a deep space maneuver, an Earth gravity assist, and a sequence of trajectory correction maneuvers, culminating in an entry, descent, and landing sequence. Several unique challenges exist when designing this trajectory, including accommodating a Multi-Mission Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator and selecting a Titan atmospheric entry state. The current trajectory as of the Preliminary Design Review is described in detail, along with the trades and constraints that have influenced its design.

title: An Empirical Solution for the AIRS Scene Mirror Contamination from Adjacent Footprints

description: AIRS has provided highly stable and accurate radiances since 2002, which has exceeded the expected instrument noise level. Despite the highly accurate data our analysis has shown warming as high as 5 Kelvin in the shorter wavelength portions of the AIRS spectrum for extremely cold scenes (less then 230 Kelvin), such as when AIRS views deep convective clouds. The warming only exists when AIRS is viewing a cold scene with neighboring warmer scenes. This work will demonstrate the spatial characteristics of these trends in relation to where the warm area is to the scene AIRS is viewing. Lastly, we will show that a linear regression correction approach that will account for the trend in the shorter wave portions of the AIRS spectrum.
