Authors: Hunting Wesley , Yang Man-Miao 
Published: January 2019

A taxonomic review of the known Taiwanese taxa of the pericaline Lebiini, this paper includes a key to the genera, keys to species, descriptions, and redescriptions of all species, illustrations, geographic range maps, re-rankings, and new synonymies. In total 34 species are treated, nine of which are described as new. A new genus and new species are as follows:Bellavalentisgen. n., (type speciesDolichoctiskuzugamiiShibata, 1967);Amphimenesabsensacidussp. n.;Amphimenesbeichatiensissp. n.;Amphimenescarinacaulissp. n.; Catascopus(s. str.)asahartisp. n.; Catascopus(s. str.)viridiorchissp. n.; Coptodera (Coptoderina) occultasp. n.;Dolichoctisbadiadorsissp. n.;Dolichoctisdilatatasp. n.;Moctherusobscurabasissp. n.After close examination of the type material of several species, we were able to determine thatCoptoderinachaudoirianguilipennis(Nakane and Okhura) is a junior synonym of Coptodera (Coptoderina) chaudoiri Andrewes,syn. n.andCoptoderanobilisJedlička is also a junior synonym ofC.chaudoiri,syn. n.DolichoctisstriatusformosanusHabu is a junior synonym ofDolichoctisrotundata(Schmidt-Goebel),syn. n.Dolichoctis (Mochtherus) uenoi Habu is a junior synonym ofMochtherusluctuosusPutzeys,syn. n.PericalusformosanusDupuis was recently ranked as a subspecies ofPericalusornatusformosanusDupuis. After consideration of the several consistent taxonomic characteristics and also considering its allopatric distribution with all other species ofPericalus, we believePericalusformosanusDupuis to be a valid species,stat. resurr.The monobasic genusPseudomenarus(type speciesPseudomenarusflavomaculatusShibata, 1964) is established as conspecific with members of the genusFormosiellaJedlička, 1951,comb. n.Species previously recorded from Taiwan that are not present here include:AmphimenespiceolusBates;CatascopusaequatusDejean;Catascopusfacialis(Wiedemann)CoptoderainterruptaSchmidt-GoebelCoptoderaflexuosaSchmidt-Goebel andPeripristusater(Laporte). The pericaline taxa of Taiwan are arranged in 14 genera, five subgenera, and 34 currently known species. Notes on collecting circumstances, habits, and habitat are included when known.
Fiscalité de l'épargne et choix de portefeuille des ménages français
Authors: Pfister Christian 
Published: January 2019

La fiscalité française du capital des ménages présente plusieurs caractéristiques. Tout d'abord, son niveau élevé : en 2016, elle représentait 6 % du PIB, plaçant la France en première position, à égalité avec le Royaume-Uni dans l'Union européenne où la moyenne s'élève à 3,8 % (3,5 % dans la zone euro). Ensuite cette fiscalité, considérée aussi bien isolément que par comparaison avec l'étranger, est marquée tant par son instabilité que sa complexité et la création de distorsions en faveur de certains produits ou intermédiaires, en particulier l'épargne non risquée, l'intermédiation par l'assurance-vie et l'épargne salariale. Sur la base de ce constat, l'article s'interroge dans un premier temps sur le caractère approprié de la fiscalité de l'épargne des ménages en France au regard de la théorie. Dans un deuxième temps, il en évalue l'impact sur les allocations d'actifs et le financement de l'économie. L'accent est mis sur l'épargne financière, particulièrement dans la deuxième partie.

Banque et impôts en France
Authors: Suet Patrick , Dallemagne Marie-Liesse 
Published: January 2019

Entre 2010 et 2017, les banques françaises ont supporté une augmentation de leurs prélèvements obligatoires d'environ 25 %, essentiellement en raison d'une forte augmentation des contributions spécifiques au secteur bancaire, notamment au Fonds de résolution unique (FRU). Le poids élevé de ces prélèvements pesant sur les banques a eu pour conséquence que la part des entreprises du secteur financier dans l'ensemble des prélèvements obligatoires a enregistré une hausse d'environ 10 %. Or les banques sont aujourd'hui confrontées à un triple défi, réglementaire, économique et technologique, qui les oblige à augmenter leurs fonds propres dans un contexte qui pèse sur leur rentabilité. Ce contexte met particulièrement en lumière le problème de la compétitivité des banques françaises qui subissent années après années un accroissement de leurs charges fiscales sur les coûts de production. Le maintien dans la durée de ces charges pose un problème majeur dans la compétition européenne au moment où les cartes du marché vont être partiellement redistribuées dans le cadre du Brexit et surtout du fait de la mise en œuvre de l'Union bancaire et de l'Union des marchés de capitaux.

Innovation financière et fiscalité
Authors: Lavayssière Bertrand 
Published: January 2019

Cet article tente d'illustrer, sans ambition d'exhaustivité, quelques aspects de la relation entre l'innovation financière et la fiscalité. Trois angles de vue sont pris pour éclairer le sujet. Le premier explore la relation existante entre les décisions fiscales liées aux budgets des États et leurs implications sur la création de produits ou leurs évolutions. Le second illustre comment certains produits vont être utilisés de manière créative pour optimiser des situations fiscales spécifiques, par exemple le niveau de bénéfice ou le montant des dividendes. Le troisième angle concerne la création de marchés nouveaux liés à des décisions fiscales, comme la taxe carbone. Classification JEL : G0, H31, H32, O31, Q58.
L'impact de la taille de l'actif sous gestion sur la performance des fonds de placement collectif
Authors: Tran Dieu Linh 
Published: January 2019

Nous étudions l’impact de la taille sur la performance des fonds. En utilisant les données sur les fonds actions en France pour la période de 2002 à 2014, nous trouvons une relation U-inversée entre la taille et la performance. La performance augmente et ensuite diminue avec la taille lorsque l’actif sous gestion atteint une taille critique. Ce résultat met en évidence le conflit d’intérêts entre les investisseurs et les gérants des fonds. Étant rémunérés en pourcentage de l’actif sous gestion, les gérants de fonds cherchent à maximiser la taille du fonds. Une augmentation de l’actif sous gestion, si elle est favorable au gérant, peut avoir un impact néfaste sur la performance. Classement JEL : G20, G23, G20.
Incarner le peuple souverain : les usages de la représentation-incarnation sous la Seconde République
Authors: Hayat Samuel 
Published: January 2019

Résumé La représentation-incarnation ne disparaît pas avec le triomphe du gouvernement représentatif, fondé en principe sur la seule représentation-mandat. Sous la monarchie de Juillet, conservateurs et républicains font usage à la fois des logiques du mandat et de l’incarnation. En 1848, l’Assemblée constituante élue au suffrage universel masculin, face au peuple de Paris, s’impose comme la seule capable d’incarner le peuple, outrepassant les logiques inclusives de la représentation-mandat. Mais elle se trouve rapidement concurrencée par le président de la République, Louis Bonaparte, élu au suffrage universel masculin direct en décembre 1848. Sur la base commune de l’exclusion du peuple, deux conceptions de la représentation-incarnation s’affrontent alors : l’Assemblée s’appuie sur une identité de composition avec la nation pour défendre une représentation-incarnation parlementaire ; le président, maniant la référence napoléonienne, déploie une conception plébiscitaire de la représentation-incarnation, fondée sur une identité de sentiment avec le peuple. Face à ces deux institutions, deux autres formes de représentation-incarnation se font jour qui visent à inclure politiquement le peuple : les démocrates-socialistes de la Montagne mettent en oeuvre, par le parti, une représentation-incarnation partisane qui s’appuie sur une identité d’opinion avec le peuple ; le mouvement ouvrier naissant construit, avec l’association, une forme de représentation-incarnation corporative, fondée sur une identité de condition.
L’obsolescence du politique : l’« ordre spontané » dans la philosophie de l’histoire évolutionniste de Gustave de Molinari
Authors: Schwanck Quentin 
Published: January 2019

La théorie de l’ordre spontané joue un rôle central au sein de la pensée économique libérale, malgré tout, son histoire demeure méconnue. L’historiographie héritée de Hayek néglige tout particulièrement l’école spontanéiste française qui, au 19e siècle, constitue l’un des foyers majeurs du libéralisme radical. Surtout, l’étude de « l’École de Paris » démontre notamment les affinités idéologiques, souvent niées, entre la théorie de l’ordre spontané et le « darwinisme social » (ou spencérisme). Gustave de Molinari (1819-1912), l’un des économistes les plus influents et radicaux du siècle, est la figure majeure qui, dès la fin des années 1870 et sous l’influence de Spencer, réalise en France l’alliance entre l’économie spontanéiste libérale et la théorie évolutionniste. Molinari théorise ainsi l’obsolescence définitive du politique, le règne « naturel » des sociétés commerciales, et condamne la démocratie, de même que toute forme de politique sociale, préfigurant certaines dérives autoritaires du néolibéralisme au 20 e siècle.
Ajustements de la cure psychanalytique des traumatismes incestueux
Authors: Condamin Christine 
Published: January 2019

Pour se déprendre de l’emprise sidérante de l’inceste, Daphné (abusée dès 3 ans et violée dès 7 ans jusqu’à l’adolescence) effectua, pendant 10 ans, une cure psychanalytique aménagée : elle parvint à dépasser l’oubli d’un passé traumatique, à se remémorer les actes odieux qu’elle avait subis, à se dégager des processus psychiques de dissociation et de clivage narcissique qu’elle avait dû mettre en place pour survivre et à se reconstruire. L’article présente l’ajustement nécessaire du thérapeute à ce type de patient, dans la lignée des travaux de Ferenczi.
New Graduate Orientation in the Rural Community Hospital
Authors: Squires Allison 
Published: January 2019

ABSTRACT
Retention rates for 1-year new graduate nurses had fallen to 30% at the author's institution. Upon reviewing feedback, a lack of a new graduate orientation program was determined to be a significant factor. The challenge presented to staff development was to develop a program that would increase 1-year retention rates of new graduate nurses without incurring overtime costs or significant additional expenses. The result was a successful 8-week orientation program using multiple teaching methods. New graduates rated their own progress through the use of a self-assessment questionnaire. One-year retention rates for new graduate nurses increased to 77% after the program was implemented.
Design of a Postgraduate Course in Palliative Care
Authors: Adriaansen Marian J M , Frederiks Carla M A 
Published: January 2019

ABSTRACT
Background: Although palliative care is multidisciplinary in nature, nurses play an essential role in terminal care. Because new nurses frequently lack the specific skills for palliative nursing care as well as competence in interdisciplinary practice, there is a need for continuing education in palliative care. This article describes a postgraduate course in palliative care for nurses.
Method: A postgraduate course was developed based on the needs of palliative patients and the subjective and objective needs of nurses.
Findings: Four roles assumed by nurses in palliative care were identified: bureaucratic, biomedical, social-therapeutic, and informal. The actual results of the course were influenced by the contextual aspects, which were determined by the nursing environment. Assignments were formulated according to the needs of the nursing unit, and a number of peer review meetings were organized.
Conclusion: Successful implementation of a postgraduate course in palliative care increases nurses' expertise and offers an opportunity for nurses to exchange experiences and search for solutions to problems together.
The Impact of Education on the Use of Physical Restraints in the Acute Care Setting
Authors: Smith Nandel H , Timms Janet , Parker Veronica G , Reimels Elaine M , Hamlin Ann 
Published: January 2019

ABSTRACT
Background: Physical restraints have become an acceptable standard of practice for managing safety and behavior control in acute care settings. Although the primary intent for using physical restraints is for patient protection, there are many negative outcomes related to their use. Heightened awareness by recent Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations and the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services standards for restraint use has led health care administrators and nursing staff to explore methods of reducing or eliminating the use of restraints. An educational program was planned and implemented for nursing staff emphasizing the risks of physical restraints and the benefits of innovative optional measures including nonrestraint devices. The program was tested to determine whether increased awareness through education would reduce the use of restraints.
Method: After current practice patterns and restraint utilization were established, a comprehensive educational program was provided to all nursing personnel. Twenty-three formal classroom inservice offerings were provided with follow-up reinforcement of self-study modules. Education included nursing assessment strategies and practical restraint optional interventions for managing patients exhibiting disruptive behaviors.
Findings: After the educational program, the overall use of physical restraints decreased as well as the length of time patients were restrained.
Conclusion: Results of this study reinforce the need to increase staff awareness and knowledge of nonrestraint interventions to manage disruptive behaviors in the acute care setting.
Learning With Cases
Authors: Tomey Ann Marriner 
Published: January 2019

ABSTRACT
Background: The use of case studies as a teaching and learning method has been traced back to the Medical Society of New Haven in 1788. The use of case studies was introduced into Harvard Law School in 1871, and this method was used with the first class to graduate from Teachers College in 1930. Case studies are now widely used by other disciplines and are gaining popularity in nursing.
Method: A review of the literature on the use of case studies for learning was performed.
Findings: Education is being transformed from a teaching to a learning focus.
Conclusion: Case methods or studies provide a process of participatory learning that facilitates active and reflective learning and results in the development of critical thinking and effective problem-solving skills. This develops self-directed lifelong learners.
Comparison of Oncology Nurse and Physician Use of the Internet for Continuing Education
Authors: Cobb Susan C 
Published: January 2019

ABSTRACT
Background: In the past 10 years, there has been a dramatic increase in published literature on the topic of Internet use by Healthcare professionals. Learners and organizations providing grants to the continuing education (CE) division of a medical education and publishing company have expressed increasing interest in the area of Internet CE. To quantify and analyze this trend, the company began using surveys to evaluate this growing area of interest.
Method: Since 1998, annual surveys at the annual meetings of the Oncology Nursing Society and the American Society of Clinical Oncology were used to determine trends in educational use of the Internet for CE.
Findings: Internet use and frequency of use, including use of the Internet for CE among both nurses and physicians, have been increasing. When asked what would make these professionals more likely to use the Internet for CE, both indicated making the activities low cost or free and easier access.
Conclusions: Nurses and physicians are looking to the Internet for quick access to reliable information, thus challenging CE educators to develop ways to implement Internet CE activities quickly. Ongoing needs assessment of target authences and evaluation of the effectiveness of Internet CE is essential to optimizing the role of this educational format for healthcare professionals.
Educational Needs of Psychiatric Nurses for Continuing Competency
Authors: Ryan-Nicholls Kimberley D 
Published: January 2019

ABSTRACTBackground: Practice setting diversification has created an increased need for psychiatric nurses to assume more independent roles, while at the same time being able to demonstrate the corresponding degree of competency to practice. Psychiatric nurses were invited to share their perceptions concerning changes occurring in mental health care, proactive strategies for participating in these changes, and educational opportunities to ensure continuing competency to practice.Method: Focus groups were conducted with psychiatric nurses located in various Regional Health Authorities in southern and central regions of Manitoba, Canada.Results: Research findings suggest that psychiatric nurses are primarily concerned with balancing the requirement to demonstrate continuing competence to practice with the challenges associated with the evolving mental healthcare system.Conclusion: If the requirement for continuing competence is to be reasonable and achievable, it will be essential that the program generate insight into the necessity for such a program to be implemented and acquire support among the registered psychiatric nurse membership.
Faculty Development for Teaching Online: Educational and Technological Issues
Authors: Barker Anne 
Published: January 2019

ABSTRACT
The purpose of this article is to describe the process of creating a faculty development program for online instruction. Both educational and technological issues are discussed. Factors that will facilitate and barriers that will impede the implementation of online courses are included. Many faculty concerns regarding online courses relate to the issues of quality and student learning. Faculty development activities are directed to ensure that courses are developed using sound educational theory and principles. Online courses are first about student learning; using the technology is second. Thus, faculty development programs must be two-pronged, involving instructional design and technology. It is an ongoing process that must be focused on continual training and development.
Very High-frequency Digital Ultrasound Measurement of the LASIK Flap Thickness Profile Using the IntraLase Femtosecond Laser and M2 and Carriazo-Pendular Microkeratomes
Authors: Alió Jorge L. , Piñero David P. 
Published: January 2019

Purpose:
To evaluate the corneal aberrometric outcomes and corneal flap thickness profile after LASIK using three different devices for lamellar keratotomy: Moria M2 microkeratome, SCHWIND Carriazo-Pendular microkeratome, and IntraLase femtosecond laser.

Methods:
Sixty-six myopic eyes of 33 patients who underwent LASIK with the SCHWIND ESIRIS excimer laser were enrolled in this study. Lamellar keratotomy was performed using three different devices that were assigned randomly to each patient: the Moria M2 microkeratome, SCHWIND Carriazo-Pendular microkeratome, and IntraLase femtosecond laser. The intended flap depth was 110 µm in all cases. Flap thickness profile, corneal aberrations, contrast sensitivity, and refractive outcomes were evaluated.

Results:

Mean central flap thickness was 117.50±7.80, 118.08±8.34, and 115.95±6.22 µm for the M2, Carriazo-Pendular, and IntraLase systems, respectively. No significant differences were found among the groups. Nasal thicknesses were significantly larger for the M2 flaps compared to IntraLase (
P
<.05) and Carriazo-Pendular flaps (
P
=.046 only at 3-mm position). Temporal thicknesses were larger for the M2 flaps, although only differences between M2 and Carriazo-Pendular flaps reached statistical significance. Larger superior and inferior thicknesses were also observed for M2 flaps, although no statistically significant differences were found. Regarding corneal aberrometry, no statistically significant differences were observed in coma-like (
P
=.138) and spherical-like root-mean-square (
P
=.300).

Conclusions:

The M2, Carriazo-Pendular, and IntraLase systems create flaps of predictable thickness during lamellar keratotomy in LASIK. Additionally, the Carriazo-Pendular and IntraLase devices create flaps with a planar profile. [

Prospective Evaluation of Intraocular Lens Calculation After Myopic Refractive Surgery
Authors: Khalil Monica , Chokshi Amit , Latkany Robert , Speaker Mark G. , Yu Guopei 
Published: January 2019

Purpose:
To evaluate outcome after refractive surgery in cataract patients for whom intraocular lens (IOL) selection was based on the use of a myopic regression formula.

Methods:

This prospective case series included 20 eyes of 14 patients who had previous uncomplicated myopic refractive surgery, followed by uncomplicated cataract extraction with IOL implantation. Calculation of IOL was based on flattest keratometry readings, spherical equivalent refraction before refractive surgery, and an adjustment factor derived from the regression formula: −(0.47
x
+ 0.85). Following cataract extraction, refractive error was compared against refractive aim. The power of IOL obtained by the regression formula (IOL
RF
) was compared to those obtained using the clinical history method at the spectacle plane (IOLHisKs) and the Double-K formula (IOL
DoubleK
). The results acquired with each technique were compared with those achieved using an IOL back-calculated for emmetropia (IOL
exact
).

Results:

Using the regression formula, IOL calculations produced postoperative cataract extraction refractions within 1.00 diopter (D) (range: −1.00 to 0.78 D) of the intended outcome. Mean spherical equivalent refraction after cataract extraction was −0.31±0.56 D. Twelve of 20 eyes had sufficient data to evaluate the statistical relationships among the three formulas compared with IOL
exact
. Paired
t
test results revealed IOL
RF
(
P
=.0932) and IOL
HisKs
(
P
=.9955) were not statistically different from IOL
exact
whereas IOL
DoubleK
was statistically different from IOL
exact
(
P
=.0008).

Conclusions:

The myopic regression formula is recommended for postoperative myopic LASIK IOL selection to provide a simple, accurate, and consistent method of predicting IOL calculation that is not statistically different from IOL

Dynamics of Small-incision Clear Cornea Wounds After Phacoemulsification Surgery Using Optical Coherence Tomography in the Early Postoperative Period
Authors: Behrens Ashley , Stark Walter J. , Pratzer Kimberly A. , McDonnell Peter J. 
Published: January 2019

Purpose:
To evaluate wound dynamics in the immediate postoperative period after phacoemulsification surgery using a small-incision clear cornea approach.

Methods:
Eight patients underwent standard postoperative evaluation 24 hours after uneventful phacoemulsification surgery performed through a temporal or nasal clear corneal incision. Additional screening was performed with non-contact optical coherence tomography (Visante Anterior Segment OCT) to examine the corneal wounds.

Results:
One patient showed partial spontaneous gaping in different areas of the incision, undetected at slit-lamp evaluation. This patient presented with a mild senile bilateral ptosis. Another patient showed localized gaping of the internal aspect of the corneal wound. Both patients had intraocular pressures of 10 mmHg, which were the lowest pressures recorded in the group. Four other incisions showed some degree of localized Descemet's membrane detachment in the vicinity of the wound, also undetected by slit-lamp evaluation.

Conclusions:

Small-incision clear cornea wounds may gape in the immediate postoperative period. If the gape occurs along the entire length of the wound, it may lead to inadvertent bacterial access into the anterior chamber. Optical coherence tomography also indicates that localized detachment of Descemet's membrane may be more common than observed with slit-lamp microscopy. [
