The coding-complete sequence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was obtained from a sample from a 25-year-old female returning to the Apulia region of Italy from England. The characterized strain showed all of the spike protein mutations defining SARS-CoV-2 VUI 202012/01, as well as other mutations in the spike protein and in other genomic regions.Here, we present the genome of Palo, a T7-like podophage of Rhizobium phaseoli The genome is 46.3 kb and contains 58 predicted protein-coding genes, including a novel signal-anchor-release (SAR) endolysin, a homolog of the T5 A1 protein required for DNA transfer, and a dual-start holin/antiholin pair.Dysgonomonas spp. are facultative heterotrophs which colonize diverse environments, including the hindgut of the lower termite Reticulitermes flavipesDysgonomonas genomes are enriched for genes involving oligo- and polysaccharide utilization, enabling modification of a wide array of complex glycans. Here, we report draft genome sequences for Dysgonomonas sp. strains BGC7 and HGC4.Bacteriophage Miami infects Klebsiella pneumoniae, a Gram-negative pathogen that is becoming an increasing threat to public health due to its multidrug resistance. Here, we describe the annotation of the 253,383-bp jumbo phage Miami genome sequence and its similarity to other myophages.The genome sequences of 10 severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) strains from Sliema, Malta, were obtained by Nanopore sequencing using the amplicon sequencing approach developed by the Artic Network. The assembled genomes were analyzed with Pangolin software and assigned to the B.1 lineage, which is widely circulating in Europe.Acholeplasma laidlawii can be isolated from cattle environments and different body sites of bovines. It is still under evaluation if A. laidlawii acts as a primary pathogen. Here, we present the whole-genome sequence of A. laidlawii isolated from the conjunctiva of a heifer with infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis.Genome sequences of Escherichia coli O157H7 originating from pigs are limited in the public databases. We sequenced 104 E. coli O157H7 isolates from pig and cattle feces and pork production environments in Alberta, Canada. The information will aid studies investigating sources of E. coli O157H7 contaminating pork and the associated environments.The coding-complete genome sequence of a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) strain isolated from an Iraqi patient was sequenced for the first-time using Illumina MiSeq technology. There was a D614G mutation in the spike protein-coding sequence. This report is valuable for better understanding the spread of the virus in Iraq.Here, we report the complete genome sequences of three Ralstonia solanacearum strains isolated from Zingiberaceae plants in Japan. The total genome sizes of these strains ranged from 5.87 to 6.05 Mb. Strains MAFF 211472, MAFF 211479, and MAFF 311693 each carried one chromosome and one megaplasmid. MAFF 311693 contained an additional 71.9-kb plasmid.Enterobacter oligotrophicus CCA3 was isolated from leaf soil collected in Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of E. Gedatolisib oligotrophicus CCA3. The draft genome sequence of E. oligotrophicus CCA3 consists of 29 contigs of 4,425,100 bp, with a GC content of 54.2%.Here, we report the complete genome sequences of two distinct isolates of Legionella that were obtained from potable water sourced from cistern-bearing homes within a First Nation community in Manitoba, Canada.We report 16 Burkholderia pseudomallei genomes, including 5 new multilocus sequence types, isolated from rivers in Laos. The environmental bacterium B. pseudomallei causes melioidosis, a serious infectious disease in tropical and subtropical regions. The isolates are geographically clustered in one clade from around Vientiane, Laos, and one clade from further south.In total, 12 quinolone-resistant Escherichia coli (QREC) strains containing qnrS1 were submitted to long-read sequencing using a FLO-MIN106 flow cell on a MinION device. The long reads were assembled with short reads (Illumina) and analyzed using the MOB-suite pipeline. Six of these QREC genome sequences were closed after hybrid assembly.Four strains isolated from tomato and lettuce phyllosphere were sequenced in order to investigate the presence of novel antimicrobial gene clusters and to get a better understanding of plant microbe interactions. These strains comprise two Bacillus strains, one Paenibacillus strain, and one Acinetobacter strain.Phascolarctobacterium faecium is a strict anaerobe belonging to the Firmicutes phylum that is found abundantly in the human gastrointestinal tract. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of P. faecium G 104, a strain isolated from a fresh stool sample from a healthy lean donor.The draft whole-genome sequence of the mushroom Pleurotus ostreatoroseus DPUA 1720 (38,588,587 bp) is presented here. This report contributes to the prospective research for bioactive compounds in the genus Pleurotus.Tuber brumale and Tuber indicum (Pezizomycetes) are two edible black truffles establishing ectomycorrhizal symbiosis with trees and shrubs. T. brumale is ubiquitous in Europe, and T. indicum is mainly found in China. Here, we present the draft genome sequences of T. brumale and T. indicum.
To determine AF prevalence and gaps in atrial fibrillation (AF) awareness and management in China.

We conducted a community-based survey of 47 841 adults (age ≥45 years) in seven geographic regions of China between 2014 and 2016. Participants underwent a structured questionnaire, a standard 12-lead ECG, physical examination and blood sampling. AF prevalence, defined by either ECG detection or self-report, was estimated according to sampling weights, non-response and age and sex distribution of the population. We used multivariable logistic regression to estimate associations among sociodemographic, clinical and geographic factors with the AF prevalence, awareness and treatment.

The weighted AF prevalence was 1.8% (95% CI 1.7% to 1.9%), but varied from 0.9% to 2.4% across geographical regions and equates to being present in an estimated 7.9 (95% CI 7.4 to 8.4) million people in China. Among men and women, the AF prevalence increased from 0.8% and 0.6% in the age group 45-54 years to 5.4% and 4.9% in the age group ≥75 years, respectively.
