“…In this report, we describe the implementation of a drive-through testing service in a single National Health Service region in Scotland. From 17 March 2020 to 11 April 2020, 1890 SARS-CoV-2 reverse transcription PCR assay (RT-PCR) tests were performed. 22% of tests were positive. …”

“…Phylogenetic and comparative analyses showed that V. anguillarum J360 is closely related to V. anguillarum strain VIB43, isolated in Scotland, with a 99.8% genome identity. Differences in the genomic organization were identified and associated with insertion sequence elements (ISs). …”

“…RESULTS: We demonstrate the feasibility of use of PAR using pandemic data, that were publicly available in mid-May 2020 from Scotland and the US, to estimate the proportion of COVID-19 hospital admissions which might be avoided, and the proportion of adverse labour market effects – for various scenarios – based on maintaining the lockdown for those of certain ages with and without comorbidities. …”

“…In replication, a higher T2D score was associated with a greater 1-year hemoglobin A(1c) reduction to sulfonylureas in the Genetics of Diabetes Audit and Research in Tayside Scotland (GoDARTS) study (P = 0.02). Our findings suggest that individuals with a higher genetic burden for T2D experience a greater acute and sustained response to sulfonylureas.…”

“…A total of 53 G. pallida samples (~1,042,000 individuals) were collected and analyzed, representing five different fields in Idaho, a greenhouse population, and a field in Scotland that was used for external comparison. According to genome-wide allele frequency and fixation index (F(st)) analyses, most of the genetic variation was shared among the G. pallida populations in Idaho fields pre-fumigation, indicating that the infestation likely resulted from a single introduction. …”

“…National recruitment has radically transformed the selection and allocation of dental graduates to dental foundation training (DFT) schemes across England, Wales and Northern Ireland, with recruitment in Scotland via a separate, independent process. It has been reported as a mostly positive change to the previous deanery-led model, in which nepotism allegedly featured too widely. …”

AFLP analysis of 37 Saprolegnia spp. isolates using six primer combinations gave a total of 163 clear polymorphic bands. …”

Across Europe, European bat lyssavirus 1 (EBLV-1) is commonly associated with serotine bats (Eptesicus serotinus). …”
