We determined molecular characteristics of Listeria monocytogenes foodborne isolates in Hangzhou and investigated the characterization of local strains.Multi-locus sequence typing(MLST) and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis(PFGE) were applied to identify molecular types of Listeria monocytogenes isolates.Results showed that a total of 133 strains of 6 serotypes were divided into 19 MLST types including a new type ST767.ST9 and ST121 were the major ST types.There were 33 and 45 PFGE patterns characterized by AscⅠ and ApaⅠ.The molecular types of Listeria monocytogenes strains were widely distributed in Hangzhou.It is indicated that the major clusters were Lineage Ⅰ and Lineage Ⅱ which will cause listeriosis.The contamination of Listeria monocytogenes in food is serious in Hangzhou and the surveillance and management should be strengthened to prevent the food borne diseases.

Objective:To study the willingness of the medical staff of tertiary hospitals to be dispatched to work for a long time at the district hospitals under the " municipal trusteeship of district-ownership hospitals" mode, and explore the key factors that affect their long-term willingness, for references of optimizing the incentive system of the model.Methods:A questionnaire was designed as guided by the two-factor theory. In May 2019, a typical sample survey was made to investigate 103 medical staff of two tertiary hospitals in Beijing on their willingness to be dispatched to hospitals of district ownership. The survey covered such aspects as their basic personal information, hygiene factors(family responsibility, interpersonal connections expansion, mobilization and encouragement of leaders, etc.), and incentive factors(personal career development, greater potential giving play to their own talents, self-achievement, etc.). Descriptive analysis and univariate hypothesis testing were used to compare the differences of the dispatch willingness of staff of different characteristics. Meanwhile, an ordinal multinomial logistic regression model was built to analyze the influence factors of long-term dispatch willingness of these staff along with individual in-depth interviews.Results:The medical staff when they were dispatched to work at the entrusted hospitals for a long time, were concerned mostly with top six factors. These factors refered to a reasonable incentive(rewards)mechanism, family responsibility, colleague evaluation of the entrusted hospital, interpersonal connections expansion, personal career development, and potential unlocking. Those staff with dispatch experience had higher willingness to be dispatched than those without( P <0.05). The former saw higher of their personal career development resulting from the dispatch(3.91 points), while the latter saw higher their post-dispatch salary incentive mechanism(3.95 points). Compared with common medical staff, medium and high level management staff were more willing to be dispatched for a long time( H=14.536, P<0.001). Leadership mobilization in hygiene factors and personal career development in incentives factors were the key drivers for the long-term willingness of medical staff to be dispatched( P<0.05). Conclusions:The willingness of medical staff to be dispatched for a long time needs to be strengthened in the " municipal trusteeship of district-ownership hospitals" mode. Managers of the district-ownership hospitals should take into full consideration, the needs of different categories and levels of medical staff dispatched, guarantee the remuneration and performance pay of these staff, and enable their career track planning, hence mobilizing their incentives, and increase their willingness to work at such hospitals for a long time.
