Abstract
Objective: To investigate the current situation of job involvement of nurses in military hospitals in Henan Province and analyze the influencing factors, so as to provide reference for improving the level of job involvement of military nurses. Methods: In February 2022, the employed nurses of 4 military hospitals in Henan Province were investigated by convenient sampling method. A total of 663 questionnaires were collected, including 632 valid questionnaires, with an effective recovery rate of 95.32%. The self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate the basic information of nurses, the Job Involvement Scale was used to investigate the job involvement of nurses, the Emotional Labor Scale for Nurses was used to investigate nurses' emotions, and the Work-Family Conflict Scale was used to investigate the work-family conflict of nurses. Independent sample t-test and univariate analysis of variance were used to compare the job involvement of military employed nurses with different demographic characteristics, Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between emotional labor, work-family conflict and job involvement, and hierarchical regression analysis was used to explore the impact of relevant variables on the job involvement of military employed nurses. Results: The total average score of job involvement of military employed nurses was (3.68±1.13), and the scores of vitality, dedication and focus were (3.64±1.15), (3.74±1.25) and (3.67±1.21) respectively. The total score of emotional labor of nurses was 33-80 (62.95±8.12), with an average score of (3.93±0.51). The total score of work-family conflict was 18-94 (55.16±13.53), with an average score of (3.06±0.75). Professional emotional regulation, patient-centered emotional inhibition and standardized emotional play were positively related to the job involvement (r=0.46, 0.41, 0.22, P<0.01). Time-based conflict, stress-based conflict and behavior-based conflict had negative correlation with the job involvement (r=-0.12, -0.23, -0.20, P<0.01). In hierarchical regression analysis, after controlling demographic variables, emotional labor and work-family conflict accounted for 17.2% and 4.2% of the variation of job involvement. Conclusion: The job involvement of military employed nurses tends to be at a moderate level. Emotional labor and work-family conflict can significantly affect their job involvement.

Abstract
We conducted a hospital-based case-control study to investigate the associations of dietary intake of folate and MTHFR C677T and A1298C polymorphisms with breast cancer in a Chinese population. A 1:1-matched case-control study was conducted. Two hundred and thirty patients who were newly diagnosed and histologically confirmed breast cancer and 230 controls were enrolled from Xinxiang Central Hospital. Folate intake was calculated by standard portion size and relative size for each food item in the questionnaire. Genotyping of MTHFR C677T and A1298C was performed by PCR-RFLP. MTHFR 677TT (OR = 2.26, 95%CI = 1.09-4.87, P = 0.02) and T allele (OR = 1.40, 95%CI = 1.03-1.90, P = 0.03) had an increased risk of laryngeal cancer when compared with the CC genotype. We found any interaction between MTHFR C677T and folate intake (P for interaction = 0.02). In conclusion, our study demonstrated that MTHFR C677T polymorphism and folate are associated with risk of breast cancer.

Abstract
High throughput analyses were performed to detect epistatic QTL in 17 body dimension and organ weight traits from a large F(2) pig population derived from a White Duroc and Erhualian intercross. The analyses used a nested test framework to handle multiple tests and a combined search algorithm to map epistatic QTL with empirical genome-wide thresholds derived via prior permutation. Alternative statistical models (e.g. including vs. excluding carcass weight as a covariate) were tested to develop an in-depth understanding of the role of epistasis in these kinds of traits. Epistasis signals were detected in only two or three traits under each statistical model studied. The interaction component of each pair of epistatic QTL explained a small proportion (0.7 to 2.1%) of the phenotypic variance in general. About half of the detected epistatic QTL pairs involved one of the two major QTL on porcine chromosomes 7 and 4. In those traits, the Erhualian allele consistently increased the phenotypes for the chromosome 7 QTL but decreased them for the chromosome 4 QTL. Models including carcass weight as covariate detected epistasis in body dimension traits whereas those excluding carcass weight found epistasis in organ weight traits. In addition, the epistasis results suggested that a QTL on chromosome 14 could be important for a number of organ weight traits. Using the high-throughput analysis tool to examine different statistical models was essential for the generation of a complete picture of epistasis in a whole category of traits.

Abstract
A number of studies have mapped QTL regulating porcine fatness and growth traits to the region of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on porcine chromosome 7 using various experimental crosses. The QTL results from crosses using the Chinese Meishan (MS) (slow growing and fat) are particularly interesting because the MS alleles have been found to be associated with increased growth rate and reduced backfat depth. We investigated these QTL further in a composite population derived previously over eight generations by intercrossing Meishan and the European Large White breeds. Genotype information from 32 markers in a 15cM target region was used in linkage and association analyses. A two-step variance component analysis identified QTL for three growth-related traits, explaining 19 ∼ 24% of the phenotypic variance with a confidence interval of 4 cM in the target region. SNP association analyses found that ss181128966 and ss181128924 within the QTL interval were strongly associated with the growth traits. Only weak signals for an effect on backfat depth were found in the association and linkage analyses, possibly because of past directional selection in the composite population.

Abstract
Good eggshell quality is important for both table egg quality and chicken reproductive performance. Weak eggshells cause economic losses in all production steps. Poor eggshell quality also poses increased risk for Salmonella infections. Eggshell quality has been a difficult trait to improve by traditional breeding, as it can be measured only for females and it is difficult and expensive to measure. Breeding for improved shell quality may therefore benefit from the use of marker-assisted selection. In an effort to find markers linked to eggshell quality, we have used an F(2) population of 668 females to map quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting eggshell traits (eggshell deformation, breaking force, weight). By using 160 microsatellite markers on 27 chromosomes, we found 11 genome-wide and 15 suggestive QTL for shell traits measured at different times during production. Loci affecting the deformation were found on chromosomes 1, 2, 6, 10, 14 and Z. Loci affecting the breaking force were detected on chromosomes 2, 3, 10, 12 and Z. Loci affecting the shell weight were detected on chromosomes 6, 12, 24 and Z. Each QTL explains between 1.5% and 4.6% of the phenotypic variance, adding up to 10-15% of total phenotypic variance explained for the different traits. No epistatic effects were observed between loci affecting eggshell traits. Because the effects for quality are mainly additive, these results provide a basis for further characterization of the loci to identify closely linked markers to be used in marker-assisted selection.

Abstract
Ear size and erectness are important conformation measurements in pigs. An F(2) population established by crossing European Large White (small, erect ears) with Chinese Meishan (large, flop ears) was used to study the genetic influence of the two ear traits for the first time. A linkage map incorporating 152 markers on 18 autosomal chromosomes was utilised in a genome scan for QTL. Significant QTL were found on SSC1, 5, 7, 9 and 12 for the two traits. The QTL on SSC5 and SSC7 had major effects and were significant at the genome-wide level (P < 0.01). The QTL on SSC1 for ear erectness also had a major effect and was genome-wide significant (P < 0.01). The 95% confidence interval (CI) of the ear size QTL on SSC5 spanned only 4 cM. The QTL on SSC7 for the two ear traits each had a CI of <20 cM, and their positions overlapped with those of the major QTL affecting subcutaneous fat depths on the same chromosome. This study provides insights on the complex genetic influences underlying pig ear traits and will facilitate positional candidate gene analysis to identify causative DNA variants.

Abstract
Influence measures based on the pairwise deletion approach and the differentiation approach are developed for unmasking observations masked by other observations in the proportional hazards model. These influential observations might have substantial impact on statistical inference and might provide important information for model adequacy. One numerical example based on real data is presented and discussed.

Abstract
Deletion diagnostics are developed for identifying observations that influence the estimates of regression parameters and the mixture parameter in the families of relative risk functions for failure time data. The diagnostic for the regression parameters is a generalization of Cain and Lange's (1984, Biometrics 40, 493-499) measure of individual influence. The generalizations of martingale residuals, Schoenfeld's partial residuals (1982, Biometrika 69, 239-241), and score residuals by Therneau, Grambsch, and Fleming (1990, Biometrika 77, 147-160) are also obtained. The influence of some observations on regression parameters can be drastically modified as the mixture parameter changes, even for a very small change. In addition, adding or deleting some observations might result in choosing different models. The diagnostics are applied to a family proposed by Guerrero and Johnson (1982, Biometrika 69, 309-314). One illustrative example is presented.

Abstract
We develop a statistical model for estimating cystic fibrosis (CF) incidence among infants born in the U.S.A. that accounts for under-diagnosis due to death prior to diagnosis and we apply it to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Patient Registry data for the years 1989 to 1991. The resulting estimate of incidence relative to live births among whites is 1:3419 while that among non-whites is 1:12,163. As a by-product of the modelling approach, estimates of the underlying average diagnosis age given survival to diagnosis are 4.09 years for whites and 4.55 years for non-whites, but this difference was not statistically significant and appears to demonstrate that diagnosis efforts may be approximately the same for whites and non-whites. Also, as another by-product of the modelling approach, CF mortality was estimated as more severe for females than males and marginally more severe for non-whites than whites. A variety of statistical methods underlie achievement of these results, including semi-parametric maximum likelihood, survival analysis, multiple imputation and bootstrap techniques.

Abstract
A nested-primer gene amplification assay (NPGAA) was established by using two pairs of primers, an outside pair of primers and an inside pair of primers, sequences of which were from M. tuberculosis(Mtb) gro EL genes. The outside pair of primers should amplify a 576-bp piece of the Mtb gro EL gene that contains sites for the inside pair of primers, which should amplify a 344-bp piece. The results shows NPGAA'S detectable limitation was 1 organism/ml and no amplification products were produced from DNAs of other mycobacterium species tested in this study. For detecting Mtb, the entire NPGAA, from sample preparation to data analysis, can be completed within 6-8 hours. When identifying AFB cultures isolated from lesions of skin diseases, the same positive size patterns were obtained.

Abstract
In this experiment, we used morgrel dogs to study the effect of trauma on the neuro-endocrine and metabolic organs and the effects of hormones on metabolism by determining the levels of intracellular cAMP, cGMP and DNA. From the changes in intracellular nucleotides, we learned that many neuro-endocrine organs and the main metabolic organs are characteristic of predominance in alpha-adrenoreceptor after trauma, thereby leading to high blood sugar.

Abstract
In this study, we have developed two latex agglutination tests (LATs) with phenolic glycolipid-I (PGL-I) and natural disaccharide-octyl-bovine serum albumin (ND-O-BSA) as antigens in 110 leprosy patients (LL = 30, BL = 30, BT = 30, and TT = 20), 50 tuberculosis cases, and 30 normal controls. These two LATs were compared with corresponding ELISAs (ND-O-BSA ELISA and PGL-I ELISA) and analyzed by the chi-squared test. There were no significant differences between the two LATs (PGL-I LAT and ND-O-BSA LAT) and their corresponding ELISAs. There was an increase in the proportion of positive cases detectable which coincided with the clinical classification of leprosy, i.e., lepromatous cases were more likely to be positive than tuberculoid cases. LATs are more simple and rapid than ELISAs and have high sensitivity (77% in ND-O-BSA LAT, 80.5% in PGL-I LAT) and specificity (99% in both LATs). LATs may become useful tools for the immunodiagnosis of leprosy in the field. The stability and repeatability of LATs are discussed in detail.
