    Emmajay Sutherland is a PhD candidate at the University of St Andrews studying development of anti-cancer drugs from environmental sources. She took part in HERStory Makers 2022.What is HERStory Makers?HERStory Makers is a social media competition for female-identifying early career researchers to share their research, their career journeys, and to inspire the next generation. Winners are selected by public vote. HERStory Makers is also part of EXPLORATHON, Scotland's contribution to European Researchers' Night.In 2022-23, EXPLORATHON was supported by the Engineering & Physical Sciences Research Council [grant number EP/X020762/1].Author contributions to contentEmmajay Sutherland conceived, planned, and recorded the video content. Kirsty Ross edited the video content to insert HERStory Maker credits, add subtitles, and maintain video length below Twitter/X limit of 2 mins and 20 secs, prior to scheduling the social media posts.</p

    Maternal cardiac dysfunction and remodeling in women with preeclampsia at term.

    Abstract—Preeclampsia is a disease associated with significant cardiovascular morbidity during pregnancy and in later life. This study was designed to evaluate cardiac function and remodeling in preeclampsia occurring at term. This was a prospective case– control study of 50 term preeclampsia and 50 normal pregnancies assessed by echocardiography and tissue Doppler analysis. Global diastolic dysfunction was observed more frequently in preeclampsia versus control pregnancies (40% versus 14%, P0.007). Increased cardiac work and left ventricular mass indices suggest that left ventricular remodeling was an adaptive response to maintain myocardial contractility with preeclampsia at term. Approximately 20% of patients with preeclampsia at term have more evident myocardial damage. Diastolic dysfunction usually precedes systolic dysfunction in the evolution of ischemic or hypertensive cardiac diseases and is of prognostic value in the prediction of long-term cardiovascular morbidity. The study findings also have significant implications for the acute medical management of preeclampsia. (Hypertension. 2011;57:85-93.

    Prevalence of maternal cardiac defects in women with high-resistance uterine artery Doppler indices.

    Objectives: To compare the prevalence of previously undiagnosed cardiac structural abnormalities in pregnant women with normal- and high-resistance midtrimester uterine artery Doppler indices. Methods: Maternal transthoracic echocardiography was undertaken in asymptomatic pregnant women after uterine artery Doppler screening for pre-eclampsia at 21-23 weeks' gestation. Women with a mean uterine artery pulsatility index above the 90 th centile (1.25) for the local population (multiethnic, socially diverse and migrant) were considered to have high-resistance uteroplacental blood flow indices. The prevalence of newly diagnosed cardiac structural defects in these women was recorded. Results: A total of 491 women underwent echocardiography, of whom 205 had high-resistance uterine artery blood flow indices. There were nine previously undiagnosed, functionally significant cardiac defects in the high-resistance uterine artery blood flow group and only one, functionally insignificant cardiac defect in the normal-resistance group (P = 0.005; relative risk = 12.6, 95% confidence interval, 1.60-98.34). Multiple regression analysis demonstrated that both uterine artery Doppler indices (P = 0.024) and ethnicity (P = 0.048) contributed independently towards a higher prevalence of cardiac defects. Conclusions: The prevalence of previously undiagnosed maternal cardiac structural abnormalities is significantly increased in women with high midtrimester uterine artery Doppler resistance indices. This observation has important consequences for the current and longterm medical care provided to these patients. Detailed maternal cardiac assessment with echocardiography may be required in migrant women with high uterine artery Doppler indice

    Underemployment : a skills utilisation perspective

    No full text
    More than half of all employees believe that the skills they possess are higher than those required to do their present jobs. This is one of several findings reported in a research paper on "under-employment" in the current edition of the University of Strathclyde's Fraser of Allander Review published today. According to the author of the paper, John Sutherland of the Scottish Centre for Employment Research at the university, this provides further evidence that "under-employment" is as important a policy problem as "unemployment"
