The complete Spodoptera litura multicapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (SpltMNPV) genome contained 139,342 bp with a G+C content of 42.7%, and 141 putative open reading frames (ORFs) or genes of 150 nucleotides or greater that showed minimal overlap. Ninety-six ORFs had homologues in Autographa californica multicapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV), 16 had homologues in other baculoviruses, and 29 were unique to SpltMNPV. The homologues of ubiquitin and gp37 are fused in SpltMNPV. The genome lacked a homologue of the major budded virus glycoprotein gene gp64, but it contained a homologue of ORF130 of Lymantria dispar multicapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (LdMNPV). There were two homologues of AcMNPV ORF2 (bro gene), and a DnaJ protein gene (SpltORF39) in which the N-terminus showed homologies with the J domain of DnaJ family proteins. Seventeen homologous regions (hrs) were identified, each containing 2-29 palindromic repeats, with an average length of 534 bp and base content (G+C%) of 33.0.
Background/ObjectiveInadvertent intraoperative hypothermia (core temperature <36°C) is a frequently preventable complication with several adverse consequences. Our study aimed to determine the overall incidence of inadvertent intraoperative hypothermia and its risk factors associated with clinical outcomes in this national survey in China.MethodsWe conducted a national cross-sectional study with 30 days postoperative follow-up from November 2014 through August 2015. A total of 3132 eligible patients underwent general anesthesia were randomly selected from 28 hospitals in the nationwide of China.ResultsThe overall incidence of intraoperative hypothermia was as high as 44.3%, in which cumulative incidence rates of hypothermia being 17.8%, 36.2%, 42.5% and 44.1% within 1 h, 2 h, 3 h and 4 h respectively following induction of anesthesia. All patients were warmed passively by covering of surgical draping, sheets or cotton blankets, whereas only 14.2% of patients received active warming with space heaters or electric heater or electronic blankets. Compared to normothermic patients, patients with hypothermia is associated with more postoperative ICU admit, longer PACU and more postoperative hospital days, but no difference in surgical site infection (SSI) rates or 30-day mortality. Several factors were shown to be associated with decreased risk of hypothermia. They are active warming (OR = 0.46, 95% CI 0.26–0.81), BMI ≥ 25 (OR = 0.54, 95% CI 0.45–0.65), higher baseline core temperature (OR = 0.04, 95% CI 0.03–0.06), and higher ambient temperature (OR = 0.83, 95% CI 0.78–0.88). Risk factors associated with an increased risk of hypothermia included major-plus surgery (OR = 1.49, 95% CI 1.23–1.79), and long anesthesia (>2 h) (OR = 2.60, 95% CI 2.09–3.24).ConclusionsThe incidence of intraoperative hypothermia in China is high, and the rate of active warming of patients during operation is low. Hypothermia is associated with more postoperative shivering, increased ICU admissions, and longer postoperative hospital days.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
