Abstract

In the next decade, there is an opportunity for very high return on investment of relatively small budgets by elevating the priority of smallsat funding in heliophysics. We've learned in the past decade that these missions perform exceptionally well by traditional metrics, e.g., papers/year/\$M (Spence et al. 2022 -- arXiv:2206.02968). It is also well established that there is a "leaky pipeline" resulting in too little diversity in leadership positions (see the National Academies Report at https://www.nationalacademies.org/our-work/increasing-diversity-in-the-leadership-of-competed-space-missions). Prioritizing smallsat funding would significantly increase the number of opportunities for new leaders to learn -- a crucial patch for the pipeline and an essential phase of career development. At present, however, there are far more proposers than the available funding can support, leading to selection ratios that can be as low as 6% -- in the bottom 0.5th percentile of selection ratios across the history of ROSES. Prioritizing SmallSat funding and substantially increasing that selection ratio are the fundamental recommendations being made by this white paper., Comment: White paper submitted to the Decadal Survey for Solar and Space Physics (Heliophysics) 2024-2033; 6 pages, 1 figure

Abstract

Introduction Bronchiectasis is a chronic condition that is becoming a global health concern. Objective To examine the effects of pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) on systemic inflammation, exercise capacity, and quality of life in participants with bronchiectasis. Methods Participants were randomized to receive PR (outpatient, three weekly sessions for 3 months) or control intervention (usual care + airway clearance therapy + breathing exercises). Data on laboratory (fibrinogen level) and patient-centered outcomes such as physical fitness [6-min walk test (6MWT)] and quality of life were collected. Results A total of 41 participants were evaluated (20 in the intervention group and 21 in the control group). The magnitude of change between baseline and the end of study was greater in the PR group than in the control group-the 6MWT distance increased by a mean of 54 m (54 vs 12 m; p < 0.01), fibrinogen showed a significant reduction (fibrinogen - 92.8 versus - 47.1 mg/dl; p < 0.01), and quality of life improved according to Saint George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) (- 7.5 vs 3.2; p < 0.01), which exceeded the minimal clinically important difference of 4 points. Conclusion PR effectively improved physical fitness, quality of life, and the degree of systemic inflammation, as reflected by changes in 6 MWT, fibrinogen levels and SGRQ scores. This study supports the inclusion of people with bronchiectasis in supervised PR programs., Author(s): Amanda Souza Araújo [sup.1] [sup.2], Mara Rúbia Figueiredo [sup.1] [sup.2], Isabella Lomonaco [sup.3], Fernando Lundgren [sup.4], Rafael Mesquita [sup.5], Eanes Delgado Barros Pereira [sup.3] Author Affiliations: (1) grid.8395.7, 0000 [...]

23. What do I need to say to get your signature? Adding draft resolution text to the UN General Assembly Sponsorship Dataset.

Author

Mesquita, Rafael

Abstract

This article introduces a text extension to the UN General Assembly Sponsorship Dataset. It consists of a corpus with the full text of draft resolutions presented by member states from 2000 to 2020, which allows conducting content and text-as-data analyses of over 7000 L-documents (or 5000 draft resolutions). We demonstrate the utility of the new data via applications that map the salience of topics, measure sentiment, and identify the effects of changes to the text between revisions on attracting new sponsors. The article concludes by discussing potential uses of the data in future research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
