Potential Pitfalls in the Analysis and Structural Interpretation of Seismic Data from the Mars InSight Mission.

The Seismic Experiment for Interior Structure (SEIS) of the mission to Mars, has been providing direct information on Martian interior structure and dynamics of that planet since it landed. Compared to seismic recordings on Earth, ground motion measurements acquired by SEIS on Mars are made under dramatically different ambient noise conditions, but include idiosyncratic signals that arise from coupling between different sensors and spacecraft components. This work is to synthesize what is known about these signal types, illustrate how they can manifest in waveforms and noise correlations, and present pitfalls in structural interpretations based on standard seismic analysis methods.

SEIS: Insight's Seismic Experiment for Internal Structure of Mars.

Unlabelled: By the end of 2018, 42 years after the landing of the two Viking seismometers on Mars, InSight will deploy onto Mars' surface the SEIS (eismic xperiment for nternal tructure) instrument; a six-axes seismometer equipped with both a long-period three-axes Very Broad Band (VBB) instrument and a three-axes short-period (SP) instrument. These six sensors will cover a broad range of the seismic bandwidth, from 0.01 Hz to 50 Hz, with possible extension to longer periods.

Socioeconomic determinants of health inequalities among the older population in India: a decomposition analysis.

This study quantified and decomposed health inequalities among the older population in India and analyzes how health status varies for populations between 60 to 69 years and 70 years and above. Data from the 60th round of the National Sample Survey (NSS) was used for the analyses. Socioeconomic inequalities in health status were measured by using Concentration Index (CI) and further decomposed to find critical determinants and their relative contributions to total health inequality.

High intra-individual variability of cyclosporine pharmacokinetics in lung transplant recipients without cystic fibrosis.

Background: There has been little study on the variability of CsA pharmacokinetics in stable lung transplant (LT) recipients without cystic fibrosis. This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of high intra-individual variability of CsA in LT recipients and its implications in CsA monitoring.

Methods: Twenty-nine pharmacokinetic curves were performed in 10 consecutive stable patients from a single center.

Pharmacokinetic study of conversion from tacrolimus twice-daily to tacrolimus once-daily in stable lung transplantation.

Background: Tacrolimus twice-daily (TAC BID) is widely used in lung transplantation (LT), but there are little data on the use of tacrolimus once-daily (TAC QD) in this population. The objective of this study was to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) of TAC BID and TAC QD in stable, adult LT patients.

Methods: Phase II, open-label, single-center, single-arm, prospective pilot PK study.
