Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) can promote patient engagement, shared-decision making and improve the overall experience of care. However, PRO integration in the primary care clinical setting is limited. Exploring the perspectives of primary care physicians (PCPs) on PROs is key to understanding how they are being used in the clinical setting. We sought to elucidate this clinical perspective at one of the largest US health systems that has integrated a wide range of PROs into routine primary care.

Mixed methods study with both anonymous online surveys and in-person qualitative semistructured interviews conducted with PCPs to understand their clinical perspectives on the applications of the existing PROs. PCPs from the 19 affiliated clinics were prompted to complete the survey. Interviewed PCPs were selected via a combination of random and purposive selection from the PCP directory.

Of 172 PCPs, 117 (68%) completed the online survey and 28 completed semistructured interviews. Most PCPs (77%) reviewed PRO responses with their patients. PCPs endorsed that PROs improve clinic efficiency and clinical management. However, PCPs have heterogeneous perspectives on the relevance of PROs in clinical practice, likely due to variations in clinic practice. For specific PRO instruments, PCPs reported anxiety and depression screening PROs to be most helpful. PCPs felt that PROs assisted with completing screening questions that are required by regulatory bodies. Barriers to using PROs include poor user-interface for both clinicians and patients and inadequate training.

Most PCPs regularly use PRO data though there are mixed opinions about their clinical relevance. An adaptable, user-friendly PRO system has the potential to have meaningful clinical applications in primary care.

Here, we report a near-complete genome sequence of the strain, designated IA1162/2020, identified in tracheal swabs from chickens in Iowa in 2020.Korean effective microorganisms (KEM) comprise a commercial microbial complex originating from the microorganisms found in traditional Korean fermented foods, including kimchi. Using next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology, the complete genome sequence of Lentilactobacillus parabuchneri, considered a major species of KEM, was assembled. MYF-01-37 nmr L. parabuchneri strains display large numbers of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and indels, including gene deletions.PacBio and Illumina MiSeq platforms were used for genomic sequencing of a Leishmania (Leishmania) tropica strain isolated from a patient infected in Pakistan. PacBio assemblies were generated using Flye v2.4 and polished with MiSeq data. The results represent a considerable improvement of the currently available genome sequences in the GenBank database.Burkholderia gladioli is known to cause respiratory tract infections in cystic fibrosis patients. Here, we describe the annotation of the 38,038-bp genome sequence of Mana, a P2-like phage of B. gladioli Understanding the genomic characteristics of phages infecting pathogens like B. gladioli can lead to advancements in phage therapy.The complete genome sequence of a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) strain was obtained. The strain was isolated from a nasopharyngeal swab specimen from a female patient in Rabat, Morocco, with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This strain belongs to clade 20A and has 12 mutations and 8 amino acid substitutions compared to the reference strain Wuhan/Hu-1/2019.Bacillus cereus is a Gram-positive rod-shaped spore-forming bacterium widespread in different environmental niches. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Bacillus cereus VKM B-370 from the All-Russian Collection of Microorganisms, the host strain for bacteriophages vB_BtS_B83, vB_BcM_Sam46, vB_BcM_Sam112, and Izhevsk.Five equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) genome sequences with links to an EHV-1 outbreak with neurological disorders after a horse gathering in Valencia, Spain, in February 2021, were determined. All strains showed the closest relationships to strains from Belgium and the United Kingdom, indicating a common source of infection.Five Staphylococcus saprophyticus strains were isolated from the fermented milk product nono in Nigeria and were sequenced using an Illumina MiSeq platform. The genome sizes ranged from 2.53 to 2.60 Mbp, while the GC contents ranged from 32.99 to 33.07 mol%. The genomes possessed 2,505 to 2,687 protein-coding sequences.Existing Web tools for the Luria-Delbrück fluctuation experiment do not offer many desirable capabilities that are vital to mutation research. webSalvador offers these capabilities via a user interface that allows researchers to access most of the functions in the R package rSalvador without having to learn the R language.Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes KB-10 can enhance salinity tolerance in coriander plants. We report a draft genome sequence of P. pseudoalcaligenes KB-10, comprising a 5,241,174-bp circular chromosome containing 4,921 genes, with a GC content of 62.97%.Most biodiversity measures indicate an ongoing deterioration due to intensifying anthropogenic pressures even though efforts are being intensified worldwide to conserve biodiversity. Knowledge of the implication of land use change on soil bacterial communities is essential for ecosystem restoration. Here, the effect of the conversion of native forests to temperate pine forests on soil bacterial diversity and community composition was investigated. The diversity and composition of the bacterial communities were affected by land use change across the sites.Here, we report the complete genome sequence of the Longicatena caecimuris strain 3BBH23, isolated from a healthy human Japanese feces sample. The genome is composed of a circular chromosome 3,103,757 bp long with a 38.3% GC content.
