• Adverse pregnancy outcomes and the long-term risk of maternal kidney disease 

  Barrett, Peter M. (University College Cork, 2021-01-06)

  Background: Adverse pregnancy outcomes, including hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), preterm delivery, foetal growth restriction, gestational diabetes (GDM), and pregnancy loss, have been associated with the risk ...
• Portable acquisition and interpretation of EEG for neonatal healthcare applications 

  O'Sullivan, Mark (University College Cork, 2020)

  Neonatal encephalopathy is a significant concern for both parents and medical staff. It results in the death or disability of over 2 million infants globally each year and accounts for 23% of all infant deaths. Early ...
