La + fois + relative : une double anticipation
Authors: Theissen Anne 
Published: January 2015

Résumé Nous nous proposons dans ce travail d’étudier un des emplois cataphoriques du nom fois , celui qu’illustre un exemple comme : La fois où Odile est venue voir Louise, elle était en pleine forme . Notre première étape nous permettra de distinguer la structure la + fois + relative en la comparant à un des emplois les plus connus de fois : son emploi itératif. À cette occasion, sera mis en lumière le caractère original de cette construction. La structure la + fois + R implique en effet deux mouvements d’anticipation dont l’un est lié au nom fois . La seconde étape nous conduira à nous interroger sur le statut syntaxico-sémantique de ce lexème. Enfin nous proposerons, à partir du sens de fois , une hypothèse rendant compte du fonctionnement cataphorique du SN étudié.
Noms abstraits intensifs et modification adjectivale
Authors: Beauseroy Delphine 
Published: January 2015

Dans cet article, nous nous intéressons au comportement syntaxique des noms abstraits intensifs, i. e. le nombre et la détermination, mais aussi la modification adjectivale. Ceci nous permet de dégager deux comportements morphosyntaxiques distincts, corrélés à la distinction entre les deux lectures mises en évidence : lecture stative et lecture d’occurrence. Dans leur lecture stative, ces noms ont un comportement proche de celui des noms massifs concrets. Inversement, dans leur lecture d’occurrence, ces noms se comportent comme des noms comptables concrets. De plus, l’analyse de la modification adjectivale des noms abstraits intensifs nous amène à postuler que les adjectifs sont susceptibles d’apparaître à trois niveaux différents dans la structure du syntagme nominal, chacune de ces positions étant liée à une interprétation spécifique de l’adjectif.
De le temps se passe à le temps passe : un marqueur syntaxique d'une évolution dans le rapport au temps
Authors: Saunier Évelyne 
Published: January 2015

Résumé Une observation des données littéraires et lexicographiques montre que jusqu’au début du XX e siècle l’expression le temps se passe était fort courante, et même plus fréquente que l’expression le temps passe avant le XIX e siècle. Prenant en compte les propriétés du verbe passer ainsi que celles de se (ce morphème étant abordé en tant que marqueur d’opération), nous proposons une réflexion sur ce dont cette variation diachronique pourrait être la trace. Nous faisons l’hypothèse d’une correspondance avec la représentation dominante imposée par la révolution industrielle, instituant l’extériorité du temps par rapport au sujet.
S'incarner n'est pas jouer. Description d'un verbe être-incarnation
Authors: Amary-Coudreau Valérie 
Published: January 2015

Le but de cet article est de présenter une interprétation du verbe être qui n’a pas été traitée dans la littérature (excepté dans Noailly 2005, mais d’une manière différente) : l’interprétation « incarnation » qui apparaît quand le verbe est accentué comme dans Christopher Reeve est accent Superman . Cette étude vise à décrire avec précision cette interprétation : elle doit être distinguée de l’interprétation de focus, de l’interprétation « jouer un rôle », et ne peut pas être vraiment paraphrasée par incarner . L’interprétation incarnation peut seulement être obtenue avec des constituants spécifiques, d’un point de vue syntaxique et sémantique.
A Tough Nut to Crack : A Semantico-Syntactic Analysis of Tough-Constructions in Contemporary English
Authors: Boutault Joasha 
Published: January 2015

Résumé : Les noms « tough constructions » ou « hard nuts » semblent appropriés pour faire référence à des structures telles que John is easy to please : elles sont en effet très difficiles à analyser dans le cadre de la théorie du Gouvernement et du Liage, tout particulièrement si l’on tente d’expliquer toutes leurs propriétés sémantiques et syntaxiques. Dans la plupart des études précédentes, seul un aspect (sémantique ou syntaxique) du problème est traité et dans certains cas, la dérivation ne fonctionne pas parce qu’elle viole certains principes inhérents à la théorie utilisée (Rosenbaum 1967 et Postal 1971, Chomsky 1981). À travers l’étude d’un corpus d’exemples authentiques, cet article propose une analyse syntaxique viable des constructions « tough », qui prend en compte leurs propriétés sémantiques. La présence obligatoire d’une certaine forme d’évaluation par le locuteur est expliquée par l’utilisation de la projection syntaxique « Evaluation Phrase ». Nous associons l’adjectif complexe de Chomsky 1981 à la théorie des chaînes afin de résoudre le problème que pose la présence d’un patient en position sujet : la formation de l’unité adjectivale coupe la chaîne entre l’argument déplacé et la trace qu’il laisse derrière lui. Ceci inactive le cas accusatif que l’argument obtient en position d’objet et lui permet ainsi d’être marqué au nominatif par l’inflexion. Cette analyse présente l’avantage de fournir une explication à plusieurs des problèmes posés par les constructions « tough » : l’interprétation évaluative, la présence d’un patient en position de sujet, mais aussi le caractère optionnel de la proposition subordonnée infinitive.
On Semantic Shifts to Intensifiers from the Viewpoints of Negativeness and Completeness
Authors: Arimitsu Nami 
Published: January 2015

Résumé Cet article a pour objectif de montrer la motivation des intensificateurs construits à partir des expressions liées à la négativité et à l’exhaustivité. Il traite tout d’abord de l’opposition mort / vivant . Mort a une valorisation négative, et aussi le sens intensificateur de « complètement » (optimisation) et de « très » (amplification). Deuxièmement, il analyse l’opposition chaud / froid , qui a le sens intensificateur de « complètement ». Troisièmement, y sont étudiées des expressions émotives à connotation négative telles que atrocement , terriblement et horriblement . Elles se rapportent à des événements potentiellement menaçants, qui peuvent conduire à la mort, mais ces émotions ne sont pas limitatives. Cet aspect illimité des mots chargés d’émotion pourrait être ce qui motive le sens de « très » mais non pas de « complètement ». Ces trois exemples sont liés par un contexte de négativité, mais la nature de leur négativité est différente, et par suite leurs glissements sémantiques sont différents. Enfin, l’expression japonaise maru (« cercle ») est analysée pour montrer que la motivation du glissement sémantique vers l’exhaustivité n’est pas limitée à la négativité, mais relié à l’existence d’un contraste dans l’expression. Maru , suivi d’un verbe à la forme nominale, renvoie à l’exhaustivité d’une action donnée, et la forme ronde, ou le cercle, contraste avec des formes coudées, tordues ou déformées. Cet article développe l’idée que (1) le facteur de valorisation négative de l’opposition est l’une des motivations fondamentales du glissement sémantique des intensificateurs ; et que (2) les différents mécanismes dans l’opposition représentent l’une des motivations fondamentales du glissement sémantique des intensificateurs et qu’ils déterminent si ceux-ci deviennent des optimisateurs ou des amplificateurs.
La particule injonctive đi en vietnamien contemporain : polarité positive et concordance modale
Authors: Dao Huy-Linh 
Published: January 2015

Résumé : Cet article se propose d’explorer une autre facette de la particule injonctive đi (Bystrov & Stankevič 2001, Do-Hurinville & Dao 2012, inter alia ) en vietnamien contemporain et de raffiner la description qu’en font la plupart des travaux en linguistique vietnamienne (Trương 1970, Nguyễn 1997, Diệp 2005, Do-Hurinville 2009, inter alia ). La prise en considération d’observations empiriques nouvelles nous amène à opter pour une approche multifactorielle dans laquelle les conditions de légitimation de cet élément font intervenir, outre les dimensions syntaxique et sémantique, un troisième niveau d’analyse, à savoir celui de la pragmatique. L’hypothèse ici défendue consiste à traiter đi comme une particule modale dotée de la force quantificationnelle de type universel et un item à polarité positive. Elle fait entrer en ligne de compte les notions de présupposition et de véridicité / véridicalité . Ces dernières, qui ont des corrélats syntaxiques précis, apparaissent dans notre analyse comme un facteur explicatif de la sensibilité distributionnelle de la particule injonctive.

Association of microalbuminuria with ischemic heart disease in non-diabetic Asian-Indians: A case control study
Authors: Naha Sowjanya , Naha Kushal , Pandit Vinay R , Balasubramanian R 
Published: January 2015

Abstract
Context: Microalbuminuria is a known indicator of atherosclerosis and its association with ischemic heart disease (IHD) has been extensively studied in the diabetic population. The significance of urine microalbumin in non-diabetics, however, is yet to be elucidated. Aim: To determine whether an independent association exists between microalbuminuria and IHD in non-diabetic Asian-Indians, and the level of microalbuminuria predictive of concomitant IHD. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional case-control study was conducted between July 2009 and June 2011. Non-diabetic patients undergoing evaluation for IHD were divided into cases and controls, based on the presence or absence of IHD, respectively. Fifty cases and 50 controls were included, and matched by age, sex, smoking habit, hypertension and body-mass index (BMI). Fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting lipid profile, and urine microalbumin were recorded for all patients. Results: Mean fasting glucose, mean low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol and mean urine microalbumin were all significantly higher in cases compared to controls. Urine microalbumin was independently associated with IHD, and microalbumin greater than 12.6 mg/g was predictive of IHD (OR: 13.5; 95% CI, 4.6-39.9; P < 0.001). Conclusion: Urine microalbumin is independently associated with IHD in non-diabetics and levels greater than 12.6 mg/g are predictive of IHD.
Precipitating factors, outcomes, and recurrence of diabetic ketoacidosis at a university hospital in Damascus
Authors: Alourfi Zaynab , Homsi Hakam 
Published: January 2015

Abstract
Aims : To study precipitating factors, outcomes, and recurrence of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) at a University hospital at Damascus, the capital of Syria. Patients and Methods : Medical records between 2006 and 2012 were reviewed. One hundred and fifteen admissions for 100 patients with DKA were included. All fulfilled the American Diabetic Association DKA diagnostic criteria. Results: Of 115 admissions of DKA, there were 92 single admission and 23 recurrent admissions (eight patients). The order of precipitating factors of recurrent DKA or single admissions were the same with different percentage. The first and second factors were infection (74% and 48%) and treatment problems (17% and 24%), respectively.Complications rate was significantly higher in the intensive care unit (41.6%), compared to the ward admissions (14.2%). Overall in-hospital mortality rate was 11.3%. The severity of medical conditions that provoke DKA with aging, not the metabolic complications of hyperglycemia or ketoacidosis, were behind this high mortality rate. Patients who died were significantly (P = 0.004) older than patients who were discharged alive. Conclusion: Results concerning precipitating factor were similar to the results of many other studies. However, mortality rate was higher which might be explained by the severity of underlying precipitating illness.
Multi-Detector Coronary CT Imaging for the Identification of Coronary Artery Stenoses in a “Real-World” Population
Authors: Makaryus Amgad N. , Henry Sonia , Loewinger Lee , Makaryus John N. , Boxt Lawrence 
Published: January 2015

Background Multi-detector computed tomography (CT) has emerged as a modality for the non-invasive assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD). Prior studies have selected patients for evaluation and have excluded many of the “real-world” patients commonly encountered in daily practice. We compared 64-detector-CT (64-CT) to conventional coronary angiography (CA) to investigate the accuracy of 64-CT in determining significant coronary stenoses in a “real-world” clinical population. Methods A total of 1,818 consecutive patients referred for 64-CT were evaluated. CT angiography was performed using the GE LightSpeed VCT (GE® Healthcare). Forty-one patients in whom 64-CT results prompted CA investigation were further evaluated, and results of the two diagnostic modalities were compared. Results A total of 164 coronary arteries and 410 coronary segments were evaluated in 41 patients (30 men, 11 women, age 39-85 years) who were identified by 64-CT to have significant coronary stenoses and who thereafter underwent CA. The overall per-vessel sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy at the 50% stenosis level were 86%, 84%, 65%, 95%, and 85%, respectively, and 77%, 93%, 61%, 97%, and 91%, respectively, in the per-segment analysis at the 50% stenosis level. Conclusion 64-CT is an accurate imaging tool that allows a non-invasive assessment of significant CAD with a high diagnostic accuracy in a “real-world” population of patients. The sensitivity and specificity that we noted are not as high as those in prior reports, but we evaluated a population of patients that is typically encountered in clinical practice and therefore see more “real-world” results.
Exploring Addiction-as-Occupation
Authors: Wasmuth Sally , Crabtree Jeffrey L , Scott Patricia J 
Published: January 2015

Introduction Despite advances in addiction research and practice, addiction remains a significant public health problem with strikingly high relapse rates and low treatment retention rates. This study explored whether the concept of addiction-as-occupation aligned with the experiences of ten persons with addiction(s), and suggests that further development of a model based on this concept may help to elucidate and address some barriers to addiction recovery services. Methods Semi-structured interviews were performed to gain descriptions of the occupational lives and first-hand experiences of ten persons with addiction(s). Transcripts were analysed using a qualitative thematic analysis methodology. Results Seven themes were identified in the data: connection, locus of control, penetration, habituation, identity, motivation, and coping/escape. Participants in this study described their addictions using occupational terms, and addressed both the gains and harms of performing their addictions. Conclusion Further investigation of experiences of addiction-as-occupation could be useful for informing occupational therapy interventions for substance-related and addictive disorders. Potential implications and contributions of a conceptual model based on the notion of addiction-as-occupation, as well as areas for future research, are discussed.

Published: January 2015

Introduction Visual stress is a condition which makes reading difficult. The use of coloured lenses in spectacles to alleviate the symptoms of visual stress has attracted increasing interest. The aim was to develop a web-based resource to centralize information about the condition and the processes for the screening, assessment, and provision of coloured lenses. Method Action research methods were employed. The exploratory phase used semi-structured interviews to gather parents' and professionals' views on the condition and their suggestions for the content and layout of a supporting web resource. The innovatory phase was used to design the prototype web resource. The evaluative phase was used to appraise and enhance the prototype website and collate data on website usage. Results Parents and professionals had some awareness of the condition but felt less sure of the evidence base for coloured lenses. Professionals valued research as evidence, whereas parents preferred testimonials. Suggestions for the content of a web resource to centralize information on the topic were clearly articulated by professionals, parents, and experts in the field. In the first year, over 7,500 individual web users visited the resource. Conclusion The first collaborative resource on the topic has been successfully produced, thereby offering a centralized information resource.

Authors: Musich Shirley , McCalister Tre' , Wang Sara , Hawkins Kevin 
Published: January 2015

Purpose. To investigate the effectiveness of the Well at Dell comprehensive health management program in delivering health care and productivity cost savings relative to program investment (i.e., return on investment). Design. A quasi-experimental design was used to quantify the financial impact of the program and nonexperimental pre-post design to evaluate change in health risks. Setting. Ongoing worksite health management program implemented across multiple U.S. locations. Subjects. Subjects were 24,651 employees with continuous medical enrollment in 2010–2011 who were eligible for 2011 health management programming. Intervention. Incentive-driven, outcomes-based multicomponent corporate health management program including health risk appraisal (HRA)/wellness, lifestyle management, and disease management coaching programs. Measures. Medical, pharmacy, and short-term disability pre/post expenditure trends adjusted for demographics, health status, and baseline costs. Self-reported health risks from repeat HRA completers. Analysis. Propensity score–weighted and multivariate regression–adjusted comparison of baseline to post trends in health care expenditures and productivity costs for program participants and nonparticipants (i.e., difference in difference) relative to programmatic investment. Results. The Well at Dell program achieved an overall return on investment of 2.48 in 2011. Most of the savings were realized from the HRA/wellness component of the program. Cost savings were supported with high participation and significant health risk improvement. Conclusion. An incentive-driven, well-managed comprehensive corporate health management program can continue to achieve significant health improvement while promoting health care and productivity cost savings in an employee population.

Published: January 2015

Purpose. To examine the relationship between perceived workplace health support and employee productivity. Design. A quantitative cross-sectional study. Setting. Washington State agencies. Subjects. A total of 3528 employees from six state agencies were included in this analysis. Measures. Perceived workplace health support was assessed by two questions that queried respondents on how often they felt supported by the workplace for healthy living and physical activity. The Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire was used to measure health-related absenteeism and presenteeism in the past 7 days. Analysis. Multivariate linear regression was used to estimate the mean differences in productivity by levels of perceived health support. Results. Most participants were between 45 and 64 years of age and were predominantly non-Hispanic white. Presenteeism varied significantly by the level of perceived workplace health support, with those who felt least supported having higher presenteeism than those who felt most supported. The difference in presenteeism by perceived workplace support remained significant in models adjusting for sociodemographic and health characteristics (mean difference: 7.1% for support for healthy living, 95% confidence interval: 3.7%, 10.4%; 4.3% for support for physical activity, 95% confidence interval: 1.7%, 6.8%). Absenteeism was not associated with perceived workplace health support. Conclusion. Higher perceived workplace health support is independently associated with higher work productivity. Employers may see productivity benefit from wellness programs through improved perceptions of workplace health support.
The Impact of Incentives on Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motives for Fitness-Center Attendance in College First-Year Students
Authors: Pope Lizzy , Harvey Jean 
Published: January 2015

Purpose. A criticism of incentives for health behaviors is that incentives undermine intrinsic motivation. The objective of this study was to determine the impact of monetary incentive provision on participation motives for exercise in first-year college students at a northeastern public university. Design. Randomized-controlled trial. Setting. Public university in the Northeastern United States. Subjects. One hundred seventeen first-year college students. Intervention. Participants were randomized to one of three conditions: a control condition receiving no incentives for meeting fitness-center attendance goals; a discontinued-incentive condition receiving weekly incentives during fall semester 2011, and no incentives during spring semester 2012; or a continued-incentive condition receiving weekly incentives during fall semester, and incentives on a variable-interval schedule during spring semester. Measures. The Exercise Motivation Inventory 2 measured exercise participation motives at baseline, end of fall semester, and end of spring semester. Fitness-center attendance was monitored by using ID-card check-in/check-out records. Analysis. Repeated-measures analyses using linear mixed models with first-order autoregressive covariance structures were run to compare motive changes in the three conditions. Results. Participation motives of Enjoyment and Revitalization associated with intrinsic motivation did not decrease significantly over time in any of the conditions, F(4, 218) = 2.25, p = .065 and F(4, 220) = 1.67, p = .16, respectively. Conclusion. Intrinsically associated participation motives for exercise did not decrease with incentive provision. Therefore, incentives may encourage fitness-center attendance without negatively impacting participation motives for exercise.
