Congenital pulmonic and aortic stenosis in Newfoundland dogs: Results of a 14-year French cardiovascular screening program (921 dogs). by Valérie Chetboul, Constance Fauveau, Peggy Passavin

“…Out of the 921 screened dogs, 913/921 (99.1%) and 919/921 (99.8%) were respectively free of AS and PS, with no AS and PS detection during the last 3 years of the program. The inbreeding coefficient, which was assessed from the pedigree analysis of all screened dogs except one, was not significantly different between dogs with either AS (0.59%; P = 0.86) or PS (0.39%; P = 0.72) and those without any arterial stenosis (0.39%).…”

Psychological Characteristics and Health Behavior for Juvenile Delinquency Groups by Fangbin Song, Ruihua Li, Wei Wang, Shenyu Zhang

“…Through the comparative analysis of the YPPQ test results of the juvenile delinquency groups, the problem youth group, and the normal youth group, it is found that the YPPQ has high reliability and validity, so its detection and evaluation are highly feasible. By comparing the odds ratio (OR) of each question in the YPPQ test between the experimental group and the control group, it is found that the psychological characteristics of the experimental group are significantly affected by family, school, and even society. …”
