Abstract Summary As the importance of microbiome research continues to become more prevalent and essential to understanding a wide variety of ecosystems (e.g. marine, built, host associated, etc.), there is a need for researchers to be able to perform highly reproducible and quality analysis of microbial genomes. MetaSanity incorporates analyses from 11 existing and widely used genome evaluation and annotation suites into a single, distributable workflow, thereby decreasing the workload of microbiologists by allowing for a flexible, expansive data analysis pipeline. MetaSanity has been designed to provide separate, reproducible workflows that (i) can determine the overall quality of a microbial genome, while providing a putative phylogenetic assignment, and (ii) can assign structural and functional gene annotations with varying degrees of specificity to suit the needs of the researcher. The software suite combines the results from several tools to provide broad insights into overall metabolic function. Importantly, this software provides built-in optimization for ‘big data’ analysis by storing all relevant outputs in an SQL database, allowing users to query all the results for the elements that will most impact their research. Availability and implementation MetaSanity is provided under the GNU General Public License v.3.0 and is available for download at https://github.com/cjneely10/MetaSanity. This application is distributed as a Docker image. MetaSanity is implemented in Python3/Cython and C++. Instructions for its installation and use are available within the GitHub wiki page at https://github.com/cjneely10/MetaSanity/wiki, and additional instructions are available at https://cjneely10.github.io/year-archive/. MetaSanity is optimized for users with limited programing experience. Supplementary information Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

This study aimed to determine the quality analysis of tax services at KPP Pratama Jakarta Senin in order to improve taxpayer compliance. The method used in this research was descriptive qualitative method. Data collection was carried out through interviews, observation and documentation. A total of eight informants were involved in this study.  Data analysis was performed using the Credibility and Transferability Test. The results of this study indicate that service indicators such as reliability, responsiveness, competence, access, courtesy, communication, credibility, security, understanding, and tangibles owned by tax employees of KPP Pratama Jakarta Senin are very good so that taxpayers are satisfied with the services they provide. However, there are still weaknesses in the courtesy indicator, in which some employees are not friendly, and in the tangibles indicator, in which the quality of human resources and the number of computer units is still lacking and the awareness and compliance of taxpayers is still low. These weaknesses have resulted in the failure to achieve the tax achievement target.

Objectives: The Internet, especially YouTube, is an important and growing source of medical information. The content of this information is poorly evaluated. The objective of this study was to analyze the quality of YouTube video content on meniscus repair. The hypothesis was that this source of information is not relevant for patients. Methods: A YouTube search was carried out using the keywords "meniscus repair". Videos had to have had more than 10,000 views to be included. The videos were analyzed by two evaluators. Various features of the videos were recorded (number of views, date of publication, "likes", "don’t likes", number of comments, source, type of content and the origin of the video). The quality of the video content was analyzed by two validated information system scores: the JAMA benchmark score (0 to 4) and the Modified DISCERN score (0 to 5). A specific meniscus repair score (MRSS scored out of 22) was developed for this study, in the same way that a specific score has been developed for other similar studies (anterior cruciate ligament, spine, etc.). Results: Forty-four (44) videos were included in the study. The average number of views per video was 180,100 (± 222,000) for a total number of views of 7,924,095. The majority of the videos were from North America (90.9%). In most cases, the source (uploader) that published the video was a doctor (59.1%). A manufacturer, an institution and a non-medical source were the other sources. The content actually contained information on meniscus repair in only 50% of the cases. The mean scores for the JAMA benchmark, MD score and MRSS were 1.6/4± 0.75, 1.2/5 ± 1.02 and 4.5/22 (± 4.01) respectively. No correlation was found between the number of views and the quality of the videos. The quality of videos from medical sources was not superior to those from other sources. Conclusion: The content of YouTube videos on meniscus repair is of very low quality. Physicians should inform patients and, more importantly, contribute to the improvement of these contents.
