Monitoring a Just Transition to a net zero and climate resilient Scotland

Lara M. Santos Ayllón, Kirsten E. H. Jenkins

The report describes the development of a monitoring and evaluation framework for a just transition to a net zero and climate resilient Scotland. It draws on just transition policy developments to date, both in Scotland and internationally. It provides an overarching framework …

How (and by whom) energy policy is really made: Insights from the Scottish political system

Kirsten E. H. Jenkins

In the energy research and social science community, our papers often state ambitions to influence energy policy. Sometimes we comment on fiscal levers, highlight areas of neglect, or identify social groups deserving of more attention. In other cases, we seek to advance …

The effects of antibiotic exposures on the gut resistome during hematopoietic cell transplantation in children

Sarah M. Heston, Kirsten E. H. Jenkins, Paul L. Martin, Andre Stokhuyzen et autres

Antibiotic resistance is a global threat driven primarily by antibiotic use. We evaluated the effects of antibiotic exposures on the gut microbiomes and resistomes of children at high risk of colonization by antibiotic-resistant bacteria. We performed shotgun metagenomic sequencing of 691 serially …

Oldest evidence of abundant C 4 grasses and habitat heterogeneity in eastern Africa

Daniel J. Peppe, Susanne M. Cote, Alan L. Deino, David L. Fox et autres

The assembly of Africa’s iconic C 4 grassland ecosystems is central to evolutionary interpretations of many mammal lineages, including hominins. C 4 grasses are thought to have become ecologically dominant in Africa only after 10 million years ago (Ma). However, paleobotanical records …

The evolution of hominoid locomotor versatility: Evidence from Moroto, a 21 Ma site in Uganda

Laura MacLatchy, Susanne M. Cote, Alan L. Deino, Robert Kityo et autres

Living hominoids are distinguished by upright torsos and versatile locomotion. It is hypothesized that these features evolved for feeding on fruit from terminal branches in forests. To investigate the evolutionary context of hominoid adaptive origins, we analyzed multiple paleoenvironmental proxies in conjunction …

Relapse and Remission in Children With Chronic Noninfectious Uveitis Treated With Methotrexate

Courtney M. McCracken, Jessica G. Shantha, Steven Yeh, Kirsten E. H. Jenkins et autres

Pediatric chronic noninfectious uveitis (NIU) can lead to sight-threatening complications and often requires long-term immunosuppression. Uveitis occurs in isolation (ie, idiopathic NIU), or is associated with systemic diseases, most commonly juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).

The Gut Resistome during Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Children

Sarah M. Heston, Kirsten E. H. Jenkins, Paul Martin, Andre Stokhuyzen et autres

Abstract Background Children undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) are at high risk of acquiring antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Few prior studies examined antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) within the gut metagenomes of children undergoing HCT. Methods We conducted a longitudinal study of children (age …

Risk Factors for CMV Viremia and Treatment-Associated Adverse Events Among Pediatric Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Recipients

Sarah M. Heston, John S. Tanaka, Kirsten E. H. Jenkins, Richard Vinesett et autres

BACKGROUND: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) causes substantial morbidity and mortality after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). There are limited data on risk factors for CMV viremia and the safety of antiviral medications used to treat CMV in children. METHODS: We conducted a single-center retrospective …

Ecomorphology and ecology of the grassland specialist, Rusingoryx atopocranion (Artiodactyla: Bovidae), from the late Pleistocene of western Kenya

Kris Kovarovic, J. Tyler Faith, Kirsten E. H. Jenkins, Christian A. Tryon et autres

Abstract Rusingoryx atopocranion is an extinct alcelaphin bovid from the late Pleistocene of Kenya, known for its distinctive hollow nasal crest. A bonebed of R . atopocranion from the Lake Victoria Basin provides a unique opportunity to examine the nearly complete postcranial …
