: Transcriptome assembly and functional annotation are essential in understanding gene expression and biological function. Nevertheless, many existing pipelines lack the flexibility to integrate both short- and long-read sequencing data or fail to provide a complete, customizable workflow for transcriptome analysis, particularly for non-model organisms. : We present TrAnnoScope, a transcriptome analysis pipeline designed to process Illumina short-read and PacBio long-read data.

One of the challenges in development of MLPs is the need for a large and diverse training set calculated by ab initio methods. This dataset should ideally cover the entire phase space, while not searching this space using ab initio methods, as this would be counterproductive and generally intractable with respect to computational time.

So far, using video for emergency calls seems beneficial for patient assessment and dispatcher-assisted first aid. However, the EMS dispatchers' experiences with and perceptions of using video during emergency calls are largely unexplored.

Methods: Records were retrospectively reviewed at 9 referral hospitals for dogs managed with postoperative dRT between January 1, 2010, and January 1, 2020, following surgery for STS. Data related to presentation, surgery, dRT, systemic therapy, and outcome were abstracted.
