The purpose of this paper is to illustrate how telemedicine can be beneficial in many areas of orthopedic clinical practice through a literature narrative review. In addition, we discuss advantages, barriers, and enablers of such technology. Telemedicine in orthopedics was initially described to discuss simple cases among non-specialist doctors through videoconferencing. Recently, it evolved to postoperative follow-up on selected cases, physical examination, and even teleconsultations direct to patients. Studies have reported that consultation can be offered safely to selected patients. Although this topic is already being addressed for a long time, recent studies have reported that there is still resistance among many orthopedic surgeons. Telemedicine for orthopedics has safely expanded its operations. It can be used in postoperative follow-up of selected cases, fracture follow-up, and even in pediatric cases. Remote diagnosis of fractures is done successfully on an outpatient basis in many countries. Prsurgeons. Telemedicine for orthopedics has safely expanded its operations. It can be used in postoperative follow-up of selected cases, fracture follow-up, and even in pediatric cases. Remote diagnosis of fractures is done successfully on an outpatient basis in many countries. Protocols and methods to standardize the virtual orthopedic examination for common musculoskeletal conditions have been developed. Satisfaction with teleconsultations as well as cost-effectiveness of remote care orthopedics were already well reported by some studies. We believe that remote care will be expanded in several hospitals around the world due to its huge potential. This fact is explained by natural technological development and by change and obliteration of habits accelerated exponentially after COVID-19 crisis.The Integrated Microbial Genomes & Microbiomes system (IMG/M https//img.jgi.doe.gov/m/) contains annotated isolate genome and metagenome datasets sequenced at the DOE's Joint Genome Institute (JGI), submitted by external users, or imported from public sources such as NCBI. IMG v 6.0 includes advanced search functions and a new tool for statistical analysis of mixed sets of genomes and metagenome bins. The new IMG web user interface also has a new Help page with additional documentation and webinar tutorials to help users better understand how to use various IMG functions and tools for their research. New datasets have been processed with the prokaryotic annotation pipeline v.5, which includes extended protein family assignments.Sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) is a commercially and culturally important species to the people that live along the northern Pacific Ocean coast. There are two main sockeye salmon ecotypes-the ocean-going (anadromous) ecotype and the fresh-water ecotype known as kokanee. The goal of this study was to better understand the population structure of sockeye salmon and identify possible genomic differences among populations and between the two ecotypes. In pursuit of this goal, we generated the first reference sockeye salmon genome assembly and an RNA-seq transcriptome data set to better annotate features of the assembly. Resequenced whole-genomes of 140 sockeye salmon and kokanee were analyzed to understand population structure and identify genomic differences between ecotypes. Three distinct geographic and genetic groups were identified from analyses of the resequencing data. Selleckchem ABT-199 Nucleotide variants in an immunoglobulin heavy chain variable gene cluster on chromosome 26 were found to differentiate the northwestern group from the southern and upper Columbia River groups. Several candidate genes were found to be associated with the kokanee ecotype. Many of these genes were related to ammonia tolerance or vision. Finally, the sex chromosomes of this species were better characterized, and an alternative sex-determination mechanism was identified in a subset of upper Columbia River
