Abstract
Objective Determine compression generated by lag and neutral screws over 12 h using two bone analogs. Study design Experimental study. Sample population Bone analogs were made of composite synthetic bone (CSB) or three‐dimensional printed polylactic acid (PLA). Analogs had a 2 mm exterior shell with a 10 mm thick internal layer of open‐cell material. Methods Bone analogs were opposed, making a 4‐sided box with open ends. A central channel contained the sensor and the screws passed through it to engage both paired analogs. Four screw/analog conditions were tested: neutral and lag screw with bicortical engagement, neutral and lag screw with unicortical engagement. All screws were tightened to 2 Nm torque and compression values recorded at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 6, and 12 h (six trials per condition). Medians were compared across groups for statistical significance. Results There was no difference in median compression between lag and neutral bicortical screws. For PLA, greater median compression was generated by neutral (median 437 N) and lag (median 379 N) bicortical screws compared to neutral unicortical screws (median 208 N, p < .001); lag bicortical screws generated greater median compression than lag unicortical screws (median 265 N, p = .012). For CSB, lag bicortical screws (median 293 N) generated greater median compression than neutral unicortical screws (median 228 N, p = .008). Conclusion Lag and neutral screws generated similar compression. Bicortical screws had higher median compression than unicortical screws in bone analogs. Clinical significance Neutral screws generate compression in cancellous bone analogs that can be increased with bicortical bone engagement.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the failure method of simulated equine medial femoral condyle (MFC) subchondral bone defects under compression and the influence of screw placement on failure resistance. STUDY DESIGN In vitro study. SAMPLE POPULATION Composite disks (CD) simulating the moduli of yearling bone in the MFC. METHODS Four CD conditions were tested, all with a 12.7 mm void (n = 6 per condition): intact (no void), void only, void with a 4.5 mm screw placed in neutral fashion, and void with a 4.5 mm screw placed in lag fashion. Composite disks of each condition were tested under monotonic compression to 6000 N and cyclic compression to 10 000 cycles. Observable failure, load at first observable failure, and displacement at peak 2000 N load were compared among conditions. RESULTS Specimens failed by cracking at the superior aspect of the void or the screw exit hole. After monotonic loading, cracks were observed 6/6 CD with a void, 6/6 CD with a void/lag screw, and 5/6 CD with a void/neutral screw. After cyclical testing, cracks were noted only on the superior aspect of 6/6 CD with a void and 3/6 CD with a void/lag screw. Displacement at peak load was 0.06 mm (intact), 0.32 mm (void), 0.24 mm (void/lag screw), and 0.11 mm (void/neutral screw). CONCLUSION Model MFC voids failed by superior cracking that was resisted by lag and neutral screw placement. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Neutral screws may be an acceptable treatment for subchondral lucencies in the MFC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficiency of breeding programs partly relies on the accuracy of the estimated breeding values which decreases when pedigrees are incomplete. Two reproduction techniques are mainly used by sheep breeders to identify the sires of lambs: animal insemination and natural matings with a single ram per group of ewes. Both methods have major drawbacks, notably time-consuming tasks for breeders, and are thus used at varying levels in breeding programs. As a consequence, the percentage of known sires can be very low in some breeds and results in less accurate estimated breeding values. RESULTS In order to address this issue and offer an alternative strategy for obtaining parentage information, we designed a set of 249 SNPs for parentage assignment in French sheep breeds and tested its efficiency in one breed. The set was derived from the 54 K SNP chip that was used to genotype the thirty main French sheep populations. Only SNPs in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, displaying the highest Minor Allele Frequency across all the thirty populations and not associated with Mendelian errors in verified family trios were selected. The panel of 249 SNPs was successfully used in an on-farm test in the BMC breed and resulted in more than 95% of lambs being assigned to a unique sire. CONCLUSION In this study we developed a SNP panel for assignment that achieved good results in the on-farm testing. We also raised some conditions for optimal use of this panel: at least 180 SNPs should be used and a minute preparation of the list of candidate sires. Our panel also displays high levels of MAF in the SheepHapMap breeds, particularly in the South West European breeds.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal nematode infections are one of the main health/economic issues in sheep industries, worldwide. Indicator traits for resistance such as faecal egg count (FEC) are commonly used in genomic studies; however, published results are inconsistent among breeds. Meta (or joint)-analysis is a tool for aggregating information from multiple independent studies. The aim of this study was to identify loci underlying variation in FEC, as an indicator of nematode resistance, in a joint analysis using data from three populations (Scottish Blackface, Sarda × Lacaune and Martinik Black-Belly × Romane), genotyped with the ovine 50k SNP chip. The trait analysed was the average animal effect for Strongyles and Nematodirus FEC data. Analyses were performed with regional heritability mapping (RHM), fitting polygenic effects with either the whole genomic relationship matrix or matrices excluding the chromosome being interrogated. Across-population genomic covariances were set to zero. After quality control, 4123 animals and 38 991 SNPs were available for the analysis. RHM identified genome-wide significant regions on OAR4, 12, 14, 19 and 20, with the latter being the most significant. The OAR20 region is close to the major histocompatibility complex, which has often been proposed as a functional candidate for nematode resistance. This region was significant only in the Sarda × Lacaune population. Several other regions, on OAR1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 19, 20 and 24, were significant at the suggestive level.

Abstract
A mathematical approach was developed to model and optimize simultaneous selection on 2 traits, a quantitative trait with underlying polygenic variation and a monogenic trait (e.g., resistance to a disease). A deterministic model allows global optimization of the selection scheme to maximize the frequency of the desired genotype for the monogenic trait, while minimizing the loss of genetic progress on the polygenic trait. An additive QTL or gene was considered. Breeding programs with overlapping generations, different selection strategies for males and females, and assortative mating were modeled. A genetic algorithm was used to solve this optimization problem. This modeling approach may easily be adapted to a variety of underlying genetic models and selection schemes. This model was applied to an example where selection on the Prp gene for scrapie resistance was introduced as an additional selection criterion in an already existing dairy sheep selection scheme.

Abstract
In this study, the potential association of PrP genotypes with ewe reproductive traits and lamb growth traits was investigated. Data were included on ewes and lambs of the INRA 401 breed from the Bourges-La Sapinière INRA experimental farm. This breed was chosen because of good breeding (prolificacy and maternal abilities) and carcass qualities, and the large number of available animals with performance records and PrP genotypes. Ewes were categorized into 3 PrP genotype classes: ARR homozygous, ARR heterozygous, and animals without any ARR haplotype. Two analyses differing in the traits considered were carried out. Firstly, the potential association of the PrP genotype of ewes with their reproduction traits (fertility, litter size, and ovulation rate) was studied. The data included 801, 779, and 587 genotyped ewes for fertility, litter size, and ovulation rate, respectively. Secondly, the association of the PrP genotype of the ewes with growth traits of their lambs (birth weight, ADG between 10 and 30 d of age) was investigated. The data included 3,749 and 3,512 lambs for birth weight and ADG, respectively. The different traits were analyzed using an animal model, where the PrP genotype effect was included as a fixed effect. The reproductive traits were modeled under a probit or a threshold approach. The results of this study indicate no evidence of an association between PrP genotypes and reproductive and growth traits. It is unlikely that selection for scrapie resistance will have an effect on the reproductive or performance traits studied in the INRA 401 breed.

Abstract
Quantitative trait loci (QTL) are usually searched for using classical interval mapping methods which assume that the trait of interest follows a normal distribution. However, these methods cannot take into account features of most survival data such as a non-normal distribution and the presence of censored data. We propose two new QTL detection approaches which allow the consideration of censored data. One interval mapping method uses a Weibull model (W), which is popular in parametrical modelling of survival traits, and the other uses a Cox model (C), which avoids making any assumption on the trait distribution. Data were simulated following the structure of a published experiment. Using simulated data, we compare W, C and a classical interval mapping method using a Gaussian model on uncensored data (G) or on all data (G'=censored data analysed as though records were uncensored). An adequate mathematical transformation was used for all parametric methods (G, G' and W). When data were not censored, the four methods gave similar results. However, when some data were censored, the power of QTL detection and accuracy of QTL location and of estimation of QTL effects for G decreased considerably with censoring, particularly when censoring was at a fixed date. This decrease with censoring was observed also with G', but it was less severe. Censoring had a negligible effect on results obtained with the W and C methods.

Abstract
Characteristics of shiftwork schedules can have distinct impacts on workers' sleep. This report presents comparisons of the effects of two different shiftwork schedules on duration and quality of the main sleep episodes in comparable worker populations at two different petrochemical plants. No significant differences were found for sleep duration in comparing the two plants. However, within each plant's shift cycles, morning and night shifts showed shorter sleep durations than all other workdays and days off. Quality of sleep was perceived as lowest for night shifts of both plant schedules, and of lesser quality for weekly than for fast-rotating shifts. These results support recommendations for reducing the number of consecutive nights of shiftwork. However, before recommending any optimal shift schedule, interactions of sleep duration and quality with shift schedules need much further evaluation.

Abstract
Individual differences in adaptation to night or continuously-rotating shiftwork may reflect distinct strategies of coping with temporal challenges of the environment. Rather than studying compensatory mechanisms, we have chosen the anticipatory response of the sleep onset time preceding work in order to reveal the strategy used by workers submitted to those shift systems including night work. Comprehensive interviews, taking into account several aspects of the workers' lives, allowed for a classification of the subjects in terms of adaptation to their working schedules. Night workers go to bed once a day, whereas shiftworkers prefer to allocate their sleep onsets to two different periods of the day. For both cases, the more well-adapted an individual is, according to the classification obtained by the interviews, the more regular will be the choice of sleep onset times.

Abstract
In order to test the hypothesis of right hemisphere changes with age, this study examined lateralization for facial emotion in young, middle-aged, and older women (N = 90). For expression, subjects were photographed while posing positive and negative emotions. Composite photographs were created and rated for intensity. For perception, subjects were required to make intensity judgements about emotional chimeric faces. Overall, subjects demonstrated significant left-sided facial asymmetry for expression and significant left hemispace biases for perception. The findings for facial expression were not influenced by emotional valence or resting face asymmetries. There were no changes in lateralization as a function of age for either expression or perception. Taken together, these findings lend support to the notion that the right hemisphere mediates emotional processing across the adult life span.

Abstract
Two male truck drivers working in a Brazilian cellulose plant and classifying themselves as "well-" and "ill-adapted" to a shiftwork schedule of 4 days-on and 1 day-off, participated in an autorhythmometric study. Psychophysiological self-ratings (calmness, stress and alertness), oral temperature measurements and urine collections (detection of K+,Na+ and 17-OH concentrations) were performed regularly during the waking period for 15 consecutive days during the shift schedule--the midday shift (11:00 to 19:00 h), early-morning shift (03:00 to 11:00 h) and evening shift (18:00 to 02:00 h), including days-off. Cosine fitting of the data to a successive running one-day window revealed different individual temporal patterns, with the "well-adapted" subject showing a relatively stable phase relationship of the variables under study and the "ill-adapted" subject showing a less stable relationship. The different patterns could explain, at least partially, the fact that one subject feels "adapted" to shiftwork and the other not.
