ABSTRACT
The present paper reports for the first time the characteristics of the complete plastid genome of Surianaceae (Suriana maritima L.) in the order Fabales. The circular complete plastid genome is 163,747 bp in length with a typical quadripartite organization containing 115 unique genes, of which 80 are protein-coding genes, 31 tRNA genes and four rRNA genes. The plastid genome of S. maritima is characterized by absence of intron in the atpF gene, which has never been reported for any other species of the Fabales. The gene content and their orders in the plastid genome of Surianaceae are similar to the basal lineages of the legume family (Cercidoideae, Detarioideae) and Quillajaceae, supporting a likely common ancestor for the three families. Phylogenetic analysis supported the sister relationship between Surianaceae and Leguminosae, with strongly supported by Bayesian method and moderately supported by likelihood method. The complete plastid genome of Surianaceae could provide potential benefit in resolving the long-standing unresolved interfamily relationships of Fabaleswhen a more comprehensive sampling from Polygalaceae and Leguminosae is available for future studies.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the development history and current situation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)management in children’s hospitals in China during the past 30 years.Methods A retrospective survey was conducted in 20 children’s hospitals,the investigated contents included:basic situation of hospitals, HAI management organizations and professionals,the support of hospital leaders for the management of HAI, training on HAI knowledge,monitoring on HAI,and so on.Results Up to 2015,20 hospitals all set up independent HAI management departments and HAI management committees,46.15%(6/13)of hospitals with more than 1 000 beds were understaffed in HAI management.There were a total of 88 professionals in HAI management in 20 children’s hospitals in 2015,53.41% (n=47)of professionals had bachelor degree,34.09% (n=30)were with intermediate professional title,46.59%(n=41)were nursing staff.Up to 2015,incidences and missing report rates of HAI,antimicrobial usage rates,incidences of HAI in neonates all decreased compared with 2006.In 2015,20 (100.00%)hospitals all carried out monitoring on antimicrobial application,multidrug-resistant organisms,disin-fection and sterilization,and provided personnel protective equipment.In 2015,9(45.00%)hospitals used non-tou-ch faucets in all wards,19(95.00%)hospitals supplied hand-drying paper towel and alcohol-based hand rub in all wards.None of professionals in these hospitals participated in national-level training on HAI for ≥3 times in 1996, professionals in 11 hospitals (55.00%)participated in national-level training for ≥3 times in 2015.Conclusion In the past 30 years,the management of HAI in children’s hospitals in China has basically met the requirement,moni-toring on HAI gradually improved,but allocation of HAI professionals and personnel quality ability still need to be strengthened.
