Hypertensive retinopathy in pre‐eclampsia and its association with disease severity and neonatal outcomes: A retrospective cohort study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Pre‐eclampsia (PE) involves systemic endothelial dysfunction and microvascular injury, yet routine obstetric care lacks noninvasive readouts of maternal microvascular health. We evaluated whether hypertensive retinopathy (HR) detected during pregnancy is associated with maternal disease severity and adverse neonatal outcomes ...

The Art of Reception: Field Visits as Microcosms for Development Interventions of Non‐Governmental Organisations in Uganda

Journal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Field visits are common phenomena with non‐governmental organisations in Uganda. During these visits, Ugandan national staff guide visitors on series of meetings and interactions in the field. Following an actor‐oriented approach and drawing on ethnographic data on 14 field visits, this paper understands the field visit as a microcosm for the ...

Alaskan Ridge Blocking and Associated Winter Cold Conditions Over North America

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Multi‐decadal (1979–2023) analysis reveals that wintertime reductions in the meridional gradient of potential vorticity (PVy) over the Bering Sea are recurrent but episodic features of North Pacific circulation. These suppressed PVy states consistently co‐occur with amplified Alaskan ridging, weakened mid‐tropospheric westerlies and a downstream warm ...
