Coding-complete genome sequence of grapevine leafroll-associated virus 13 from grapevine in California.

In this study, we report the coding-complete genome sequence of Grapevine leafroll-associated virus 13 (GLRaV-13), isolate CA8881, detected in Vitis vinifera in California, USA. The genome sequence exhibited over 95% nucleotide identity with previously reported GLRaV-13 isolates and contributed to better understanding of the genetic diversity of ampeloviruses infecting grapevine.

The price of prevention. cost of recommended activities to improve immunizations.

PURPOSE: To calculate the cost structure of a suite of immunization improvement interventions recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). METHODS: A determination was made of the cost to clinics and agencies that implement a suite of CDC-recommended practice improvement interventions to fully immunize a child for diphtheria-tetanus-attenuated pertussis (DTaP), inactivated poliovirus (IPV), and measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccines. Patient data were collected through chart analysis of 16-month-old children in clinics participating in this study's interventions between May 1997 and August 2000. The study began on October 1, 1996, and was funded for 5 years (until September 30, 2002). RESULTS: Study calculations suggest that an additional $0.013/per patient per month would be needed to cover these activities. CONCLUSIONS: Identifiable cost structures are associated with the practice improvement strategies recommended by the CDC. The method of implementation may be as important as the interventions themselves. Present compensation for immunization may not actually cover the cost of service provision, and it is unlikely to cover the costs of practice improvement, as described in this paper.
