Donor retention and return patterns in Saudi Arabia: Implications for blood safety and supply stability

open access: yesTransfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sustaining a safe and sufficient blood supply requires not only recruiting first‐time donors but also retaining them over time. In Saudi Arabia, donor retention remains poorly understood, with limited data on return behavior, demographic influences, and temporal trends.

Computers in Our Cosmos: Intersections in Geographies of Care, Abolition Geographies and Worker Movements

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT AI assistants on spacecrafts. Netflix streamed through inter‐planetary communication networks. Colonies on Mars by 2050. While the glamorous public–private ventures into outer space curate discussions on the technical specificities of these proposed projects, this paper reorients discussions on such developments through critical frameworks of ...

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Metamorphism of Venus as driver of crustal thickness and recycling

open access: yesNature Communications
The composition and thickness of the venusian crust and their dependence on thermal gradients and geodynamic setting are not well constrained. Here, we use metamorphic phase transitions and the onset of melting to determine the maximum crustal thickness ...

Spaceflight and sport science: Physiological monitoring and countermeasures for the astronaut–athlete on Mars exploration missions

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight impacts essentially every system in the human body, resulting in multisystem deconditioning that might impair the health and performance of crewmembers, particularly on long‐duration exploration missions to Mars. In this review, we apply the sport science model of athlete monitoring, testing and training to astronauts;

Confined spaces in space: Cerebral implications of chronic elevations of inspired carbon dioxide and implications for long‐duration space travel

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cerebrovascular regulation is critically dependent upon the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2${P_{{\mathrm{aC}}{{\mathrm{O}}_{\mathrm{2}}}}}$), owing to its effect on cerebral blood flow, tissue PCO2${P_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_{\mathrm{2}}}}}$, tissue proton concentration, cerebral metabolism and cognitive and neuronal ...

An Overview of the Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover (VIPER) Mission [PDF]

open access: yes
A critical goal to both science and exploration is to understand the form and location of lunar polar volatiles. The lateral and vertical distributions of these volatiles inform us of the processes that control the emplacement and retention of these ...
