A case of amoebic liver abscess and emphysematous gallbladder in a 65-year-old male with situs inversus totalis.

Introduction And Importance: Situs inversus totalis, a rare congenital condition, is characterized by the mirror-image reversal of the abdominal and thoracic organs. Amoebic liver abscess and emphysematous gallbladder are severe gastrointestinal infections. The coexistence of these three conditions is extremely rare.

Streaming support for data intensive cloud-based sequence analysis.

Cloud computing provides a promising solution to the genomics data deluge problem resulting from the advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology. Based on the concepts of "resources-on-demand" and "pay-as-you-go", scientists with no or limited infrastructure can have access to scalable and cost-effective computational resources. However, the large size of NGS data causes a significant data transfer latency from the client's site to the cloud, which presents a bottleneck for using cloud computing services.

Tavaxy: integrating Taverna and Galaxy workflows with cloud computing support.

Background: Over the past decade the workflow system paradigm has evolved as an efficient and user-friendly approach for developing complex bioinformatics applications. Two popular workflow systems that have gained acceptance by the bioinformatics community are Taverna and Galaxy. Each system has a large user-base and supports an ever-growing repository of application workflows.
