Complete Genome Sequence of Finnry, a Subcluster L3 Mycobacteriophage from Charleston, South Carolina.

Subcluster L3 bacteriophage Finnry was isolated from soil collected in Charleston, South Carolina, using Mycobacterium smegmatis mc155 as a host. The genome of this temperate siphovirus is 75,632 bp long (130 predicted protein-coding genes, 9 tRNAs, and no transfer-messenger RNAs), and BLASTn alignment revealed 99.86% identity with the genome of L3 mycobacteriophage Samty.

"When to Nuss? patient age as a risk factor for complications of minimally invasive repair of pectus excavatum: a systematic review and meta-analysis".

Purpose: The optimal age for minimally invasive repair of pectus excavatum (MIRPE) is unclear; this study investigates the differences in complication rates among different age groups undergoing repair.

Methods: PubMed and Embase databases were searched from inception to October 2020. To assess age as a risk factor for complications, odds ratios from relevant studies were analyzed using the Mantel-Haenszel method with a random-effects model for younger vs older patients.
