The effect of preexisting medical comorbidities on the preeclamptic phenotype: a retrospective cohort study
Published online: 26 Oct 2021Objective:To compare the effect of comorbidities on the phenotype and outcomes of preeclampsia. Methods:A matched retrospective cohort study of women delivering at a tertiary maternity center following a diagnosis of preeclampsia. We collected data on signs and symptoms, biochemical markers, and maternal and perinatal outcomes. Results:We studied 474 women; 158 women with and 316 without comorbidities. Compared to women without comorbidities, women with comorbidities delivered earlier. They suffered fewer maternal but more neonatal complications. Conclusion:Women with comorbidities receive earlier intervention than women without comorbidities, which may lead to fewer maternal complications but worse neonatal outcomes.Michael S.

The creative industries: An entrepreneurial bricolage perspective
Purpose – The idea of “creating something from nothing” resonates strongly with the creation process associated with artists. The Levi-Strauss and Baker and Nelson discussions also refer to entrepreneurial bricolage as something that entails a “make do with what is at hand”. The purpose of this paper is to investigate how artists utilise bricolage to create projects and develop their skills. Little is known of their perceptions of entrepreneurial behaviour and bricolage, and how they construct these bricolage networks. The tension between sharing, creating and to maintain a personal brand is negotiated by leveraging these bricolage relationships. Design/methodology/approach – In-depth interviews with artists that actively make a living from their involvement in the creative industries were conducted. This provided insight into their perceptions on networking and bricolage. Since networking is such an individual and interchangeable process the interviews allowed the author to unravel these complexities of the relationships. Findings – The findings produced two themes. The first, demonstrated the entrepreneurial behaviour of these artists and their unique contributions. The second theme involved the bricolage relationships formed to overcome resource constraints. The collaborative nature highlighted the co-creation relationships that are strategically formed to provide long-term opportunities and sustained working relationships. Research limitations/implications – This study contributes to literature on bricolage, management, creative industries and entrepreneurship in non-traditional settings. Practical implications – This study contributes to theory on bricolage and entrepreneurial behaviour in small enterprises and creative industries. Artists can benefit from the knowledge to build strategic networks to secure future work. Social implications – Educators can use this information to prepare aspiring artists to create more independent and/or interdependent entrepreneurial projects. Originality/value – This work encourages further cross-disciplinary research on the arts, entrepreneurship, networking and small business studies. © Emerald Group Publishing Limited

Annotated translation: Pferde: Unsere edlen Freunde. (BRIXNER, Saskia. Köln: VEMAG Verlags- und Medien Aktiengesellschaft, 1995. s. 143-163.)
This thesis consists of two parts. The first one is a translation of a coherent chapter from the book of a German author Saskia Brixner Pferde: Unsere edlen Freunde. The aim is to create a functionally equivalent translation which corresponds with the intention of the author and with the expectations of readers. The subsequent commentary includes a translation analysis of the source text based on the model of German translatologist Christiane Nord, a description of translation method and procedures, a typology of translation problems and a typology of translation shifts which occur during the production of the translation
