Payload Operations Integration Working Group (POIWG) January 29, 2013 Human Research Program (HRP) Susan Torney & Gina Miller PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR Robert A. Pietrzyk, M.S., NASA Johnson Space Center, Houston, TX RESEARCH OBJECTIVES The goal is to allow a rapid response to research scientists requesting flight research data investigating effects of microgravity on human physiology and to evaluate the effectiveness of countermeasures ensuring the health and performance of humans during and after spaceflight. Human physiological systems work together and the establishment of this biochemical profile will provide a resource enabling the recognition of interactions through a cross- discipline approach. IN-FLIGHT OPERATIONS FDs 15, 30, 60, 120, and 180/R-14: 24-hour urine collection, blood draw and subsequent processing. Urine samples can be frozen for long-term storage prior to return to Earth for analysis. Blood samples are processed (coagulation and centrifugal spin) and are subsequently frozen for long-term storage. Biochemical Profile

Simpson, Ph.D., University of Houston, Houston, TX RESEARCH OBJECTIVES To longitudinally examine the impact of long-term spaceflight (up to 6 months) on salivary and cellular markers of innate immune function and latent viral reactivation. To determine the impact of acute stressors associated with spaceflight on salivary markers of mucosal and innate immune function. To examine the relationship between changes in salivary and cellular markers of innate immune function and changes in other stressors associated with the spaceflight environment (i.e., circadian desynchronization, sleep loss/disruption, mood state disturbances, stress, infection incidence). IN-FLIGHT OPERATIONS FD 10, FD 90 and R-1: Blood draw, Saliva sampling, 24-hour urine collection, and Health Assessment using Med Ops’ Data Collection Tool (DCT) –FD 90 and R-1 blood samples will return ambient on Soyuz Salivary Markers

Payload Operations Integration Working Group (POIWG) January 29, 2013 Human Research Program (HRP) Susan Torney & Gina Miller PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR Sudhakar Rajulu, Ph.D., NASA Johnson Space Center, Houston, TX RESEARCH OBJECTIVES To gather and document microgravity effects on body measurements: lengths, breadths, widths, circumferences, and joint angles of subjects exposed to microgravity in an unsuited condition. To determine if/how the Neutral Body Posture (NBP) is influenced by the above factors. It is anticipated that body measurements will change due to microgravity and fluid shifts. The goal of this study is to gather preliminary data to better understand the magnitude and variability of these changes. This data is important for NASA to be able to determine the changes that may occur during long-duration space flight and once obtained, NASA engineers may be able to apply these changes to suit fit, suit sizing, work station design, etc. for current and near future missions. These changes will help NASA to prevent potential crew injury during extended on-orbit missions. IN-FLIGHT OPERATIONS In-flight measurements will be collected using a tape measure for circumferences and still digital cameras on-board ISS to capture photographs. In addition, the tape measure can also be used to measure segment lengths for comparison to data from the photogrammetric method in-flight, if time permits. During in-flight data collection sessions, circumference measurements, photographic imagery, and video imagery will be collected twice during three 140-minute sessions (210 minutes with operator time) on FD15, 80, and R-30 (reserve sessions on FD45, 105, 135). The process includes setup of the cameras, subject preparation (placing body markers on the subject), collecting two photographs of each of three postures, measuring circumferences with a tape measure, and NBP video.

Payload Operations Integration Working Group (POIWG) January 29, 2013 Human Research Program (HRP) Susan Torney & Gina Miller PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR Lawrence A. Palinkas, Ph.D., University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA RESEARCH OBJECTIVES The overall aim of the proposed study is to determine whether the communications delays (as an indicator of communication quality) likely to be experienced on a long duration mission to an asteroid or to Mars will result in clinically or operationally significant decrements in crew performance and well-being on the ISS. Specifically, we aim to accomplish the following utilizing the ISS (which are further described below): Aim 1: Determine the feasibility and acceptability of conducting a study of Communication Delays on the ISS. Aim 2: Determine if there is an association between delays in communication (like those expected to be experienced during a Mars mission), individual and crew performance, and well-being. Aim 3: Determine whether this association is affected by task complexity (criticality and novelty), social support, perceived stress, and task autonomy. Comm Delay Assessment

Payload Operations Integration Working Group (POIWG) January 29, 2013 Human Research Program (HRP) Susan Torney & Gina Miller IN-FLIGHT OPERATIONS Mission Operations Directorate (MOD) and International Space Station Testbed for Analog Research (ISTAR) will work together to identify suitable tasks, negotiate with operations to implement the communication delay, and work with schedulers to maintain the requirements necessary to ensure the methodological design of this study. The requirements needed are outlined below. ISSMP will administer the in-flight surveys and schedule the pre- and post-flight baseline data collection for crewmembers; however, MOD and ISTAR reps will be responsible for all activities related to MCC study participants (e.g. recruiting participants, administering surveys, delivering data to PI, etc.). Targeting three USOS crewmembers (prefer 3 crew; however, will accept 2 crew). 16 tasks no more than 60 minutes in length should be designated across the timeline, targeting implementation of tasks early and late All tasks must have a moderate to high communication between crew and Mission Control, with a minimum of four communications between ISS and MCC expected For each task, there must be at least two individuals involved to complete that task (third person if possible), to ensure this is designated as a team-level task. A different task will be completed each day over an approximately 4 day period under each of the following four test conditions: no delay (early and late mission) or delay (early and late mission). Payloads will be account only for the crewtime associated with in-flight surveys (using the DCT) following each task Comm Delay Assessment (cont.)

Payload Operations Integration Working Group (POIWG) January 29, 2013 Human Research Program (HRP) Susan Torney & Gina Miller Pre-/Post- Investigation Summaries Functional Task Test: Stuart M.C. Lee & Barry A. Spiering Brief Research Summary: The primary objective of the Functional Task Test (FTT) project is to develop and evaluate an integrated set of functional and physiological tests, and then use those tests to determine how post flight changes in sensorimotor, cardiovascular, and muscle physiology impact functional performance (e.g. standing, ladder climbing, and hatch opening). Data Collection: Pre-/Post-flight testing only; series of timed muscle performance tests
21
Payload Operations Integration Working Group (POIWG) January 29, 2013 Human Research Program (HRP) Susan Torney & Gina Miller Hip QCT: Jean Sibonga, Ph.D. & Thomas Lang, Ph.D. Brief Research Summary: The primary objective of Hip QCT is to monitor changes in hip sub-regions in response to in-flight countermeasures (CM). This QCT study will also demonstrate how countermeasures that involve mechanical loading of the hip (e.g., exercise) could be distinguished from CMs that involve biochemical suppression of bone resorption (e.g., bisphosphonates) because these two categories of CMs affect different bone compartments of the hip (anti-resorptives on trabecular bone, exercise on cortical bone). Finally, QCT will enable hip strength estimations by Finite Element [FE] Modeling – which detects more changes in hip strength due to space than with DXA modality. Data Collection: Pre-/Post-flight testing only; involves QCT assessment. Pre-/Post- Investigation Summaries
22
Payload Operations Integration Working Group (POIWG) January 29, 2013 Human Research Program (HRP) Susan Torney & Gina Miller Intervertebral Disc Damage: Alan Hargens, Ph.D. Brief Research Summary: The goal of this study is to use state-of- the-art imaging technologies to comprehensibly characterize and quantify space-flight induced changes in disc morphology, biochemistry, metabolism, and kinematics. Subjects will be imaged before and after prolonged spaceflight. These data will be correlated with low back pain that spontaneously arises in space so as to establish pain and disc damage mechanisms that will serve as a basis for future countermeasure development. Data Collection: Pre-/Post-flight testing only; involves MRI testing. Pre-/Post- Investigation Summaries
23
Payload Operations Integration Working Group (POIWG) January 29, 2013 Human Research Program (HRP) Susan Torney & Gina Miller Manual Control: Stephen Moore, Ph.D. Brief Research Summary: Lack of gravity causes sensorimotor deficits post-landing. This experiment's comprehensive cognitive/sensorimotor test battery will determine the relative contribution of specific mechanisms (including sleepiness and fatigue) underlying decrements in post-flight operator proficiency. These results will be critical in determining whether sensorimotor countermeasures are required for piloted landings and early surface operations, and what functional areas countermeasures should target. Data Collection: Pre-/Post-flight testing only; involves physiological and performance measures. Pre-/Post- Investigation Summaries

The data collected will mirror Medical Requirements Integration Documents (MRID) requirements and testing performed during annual medical exams with an increase in the frequency of in-flight and post flight testing to more accurately assess changes that occur in the visual, vascular, and central nervous systems upon exposure to microgravity and the resulting fluid shifts. Monitoring in-flight changes, in addition to post flight recovery, is the main focus of this protocol. In-Flight Data Collection: Fundoscopy, Tonometry, Visual Testing, Ocular Ultrasound, BP and Vascular Compliance (cardiac ultrasound, BP, EKG)
