| Abstract | Rotavirus is a major cause of acute gastroenteritis in infants and young children, while its role as a pathogen in adults has long been underappreciated. In order to describe the epidemiological patterns and genetic characteristics of rotavirus causing sporadic acute gastroenteritis in adults, hospital-based surveillance of rotavirus infections was conducted in Shanghai, China, between June 2010 and May 2011. Stool specimens were collected from outpatients with acute gastroenteritis admitted to three local hospitals. Rotavirus was detected using a colloidal gold test device. G and P genotyping were performed by multiplex PCR assays, and the VP7 gene of G9 strains were sequenced for further genetic characterization. Of 1,479 adult diarrheal stool samples examined during the 1-year surveillance period, 138 (9.3 %) were found to be rotavirus positive. G1 appeared to be the predominant genotype (35.5 %), suggesting a shift from genotype G3 to G1 in the study population in Shanghai. Meanwhile, a high frequency of genotype G9 (27.5 %) was also observed, and G9 was also predominant (38.1 %) in the small number of children (n=123) involved in the present study. Other specificities detected in adults were G2 (12.3 %) and G3 (13.8 %). For P genotyping, only two types, P[8] and P[4], were detected. P[8] was dominant in both children and adults. Sequence and phylogenetic analysis revealed that these strains could be divided into two different groups, with clustering within G9 lineage 3 and the subcluster of Japanese and Chinese G9 strains, respectively. In comparison to the previous data, G9 strains established themselves in a short time span as an important genotype in Shanghai, China. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
