Measuring maternal, foetal and neonatal mortality: Challenges and solutions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Levels and causes of mortality in mothers and babies are intrinsically linked, occurring at the same time and often to the same mother-baby dyad, although mortality rates are substantially higher in babies. Measuring levels, trends and causes of maternal,

International Competition on Runtime Verification (CRV) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We review the first five years of the international Competition on Runtime Verification (CRV), which began in 2014. Runtime verification focuses on verifying system executions directly and is a useful lightweight technique to complement static verification techniques. The competition has gone through a number of changes since its introduction, which we

A computational model for retinal haemodynamics under gravitational and postural variations

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The haemodynamic impact of gravitational and postural changes on the retina, and its relevance to spaceflight associated neuro‐ocular syndrome (SANS), remains incompletely characterized. This study assesses retinal haemodynamics from upright to head‐down tilt using a lumped‐parameter model that dynamically couples intraocular ...

Incorporating Plantain Into a Perennial Ryegrass–White Clover Mixed Sward for an Environmentally Sustainable Dairy System: A Three‐Year Farm System Study

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
Over three production years (2021–2024), this study investigated the effects of incorporating plantain into a perennial ryegrass–white clover (RGWC) mixed sward on dairy farm productivity and environmental footprint. Seventy‐two Friesian × Jersey cows were allocated to six farmlets across two replicated herbage treatments (n = 3): RGWC with no plantain
