Touché par les dettes. Une perspective d'aide durable à la gestion du budget
Authors: Brodala Jan 
Published: April 2011

Résumé Les dettes et les problèmes budgétaires ont un impact émotionnel et social élevé sur les familles. L’aide durable à la gestion du budget doit être orientée sur les lignes de force de l’approche sociale durable. La pratique de l’aide ou médiation de dettes doit se baser sur les trois piliers de l’empowerment : l’emprise sur sa vie, la participation et la conscientisation critique. De plus, l’impact écologique et social de notre société de consommation a atteint ses limites.

Les succès des relations de prise en charge sont généralement caractérisés par des changements de rôles flexibles adaptés aux besoins et aux attentes du client, par le dialogue avec le client et par l’ouverture et le respect pour leur point de vue, leurs forces, leurs motivations et leur environnement, en prenant en compte le rythme du client et ses possibilités.
R&amp;D Organization: Cooperation or Cross-Licensing?
Authors: Cabon-Dhersin Marie-Laure , Lahmandi-Ayed Rim 
Published: April 2011

Résumé Dans le système des licences croisées, les firmes ont la possibilité de se céder mutuellement et de manière non-coopérative, les résultats de leurs efforts en R&D. Tout d’abord, le papier propose une modélisation simple de ce système. Ensuite, nous comparons ce système avec le « RJV Cartel », une forme de coopération en R&D considérée comme étant la meilleure. Nous montrons que le système de licences croisées peut être meilleur que le RJV cartel, du point de vue du bien-être social. En termes de politique concurrentielle, pour les firmes, le meilleur mode de coopération est l’exploitation jointe. Les firmes sont tentées par ce type de coopération de la même manière, qu’elles opèrent initialement dans un système de licences croisées ou dans un RJV cartel. Classification JEL : C72, L24, D23.
La beauté : L'attention qui lui est allouée en phase de recrutement
Authors: Garner-Moyer Hélène 
Published: April 2011

Résumé La beauté est un atout considérable dans les ressources humaines tant les stéréotypes positifs qui lui sont associées sont valorisés dans les sociétés occidentales. Elle modifie les itinéraires professionnels des individus car elle influence leur insertion sur le marché du travail et leur carrière. L’apparence physique des individus doit donc être prise en considération par la gestion des ressources humaines car elle peut agir comme une variable de gestion. Il s’agit dans cette communication de préciser les mécanismes psycho sociaux sur lesquels repose l’influence de la beauté au moment du recrutement, d’évaluer son impact, toutes choses égales par ailleurs, et d’éclairer ces résultats du point de vue de la GRH. Un test de correspondances permettant de calculer des taux d’accès aux entretiens d’embauche a été réalisé afin de mesurer l’ampleur de la discrimination fondée sur la beauté. Les résultats de ce test montrent que non seulement la beauté de la candidate est, toutes choses égales par ailleurs, un critère de sélection des CV mais également un facteur de discrimination lorsque l’on compare les taux de convocation à un entretien obtenus au sein d’un même couple de candidates. Ce constat, dressé quelque soit le degré de contact du poste avec la clientèle, atteste que les critères esthétiques sont largement utilisés par les employeurs pour sélectionner les candidats. Le défi pour la GRH, et également pour l’ensemble de la société, est alors d’assurer concomitamment la liberté de recrutement des employeurs et l’égalité de traitement des candidats sur la base de critères d’évaluation objectifs de leurs compétences.
Les aventures ambiguës du pouvoir traditionnel dans l'Afrique contemporaine
Authors: Foucher Vincent , Smith Étienne 
Published: April 2011

résumés Les relations entre pouvoir moderne et pouvoir dit traditionnel en Afrique font l’objet de nombreux malentendus, qui tiennent à l’ambiguité constitutive de la notion de pouvoir « traditionnel » forgée à l’époque coloniale, incarnée notamment par la « chefferie ». Cet article examine les différentes modalités de relations entre le pouvoir d’État (colonial puis post-colonial) et ces pouvoirs que celui-ci s’est efforcé de combattre, d’associer, d’intégrer à ses rouages, de codifier, voire parfois de créer de toutes pièces. Malgré la diversité des configurations selon les époques et les régimes, des affinités électives ou non avec le processus démocratique, on remarque une tendance générale : la résilience - en termes de légitimité, plus que de pouvoir effectif - de ces autorités, certes subordonnées, mais avec lesquelles l’État a dû apprendre à négocier.
De la clinique à la recherche dans un centre de thérapie de couple et de famille

Published: April 2011

Cet article présente une recherche menée dans le cadre d’une consultation ambulatoire pour couples et familles. Les multiples niveaux impliqués dans une thérapie de couple ou de famille constituent une difficulté pour définir les variables pertinentes permettant d’évaluer l’efficacité d’une intervention thérapeutique systémique. Le but de notre recherche est d’évaluer l’efficacité à court et moyen terme d’une intervention systémique brève (ISB), qui consiste en un suivi thérapeutique de six séances maximum, en évaluant son impact au niveau de : (1) la symptomatologie individuelle ; (2) la satisfaction conjugale ; (3) la qualité des relations parentale et co-parentale et (4) le fonctionnement familial global. Les différents niveaux sont évalués par des auto-questionnaires avant et après l’ISB ainsi qu’après trois mois de catamnèse. L’alliance thérapeutique est également mesurée par auto-questionnaire (WAI) après chaque séance. Les premiers résultats sur un échantillon pilote de N = 10 couples/familles montrent, d’une part, une efficacité globale de l’ISB pour la plupart des variables mesurées, et, d’autre part, une efficacité plus grande pour les femmes que pour les hommes. Aucun effet thérapeutique n’est observé pour la symptomatologie individuelle des hommes et pour le fonctionnement familial global, suggérant que l’impact de l’ISB diffère selon les niveaux mesurés. L’importance de l’alliance thérapeutique pour la réussite thérapeutique est également confirmée.

Rates and Reasons: Disparities in Low Intentions to Use a State Smoking Cessation Quitline
Authors: Burns Emily K. , Deaton Elizabeth Ann , Levinson Arnold H. 
Published: April 2011

Purpose. Little is known about population-level rates and reasons for low intentions to call the quitline, a widely available evidence-based smoking cessation treatment. Design. This study is a secondary analysis of the 2008 Colorado Adult Tobacco Attitudes and Behavior Survey. Setting. This is a population-based telephone survey of adults in Colorado. Subjects. Study respondents (N = 1662) included current adult smokers who had heard of the Colorado QuitLine (QL) and did not report that they never intend to quit. Measures. Outcome measures included intent to call the QL, self-reported reasons for not intending to call the QL, and knowledge of QL services. Analysis. Descriptive and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used for each outcome variable. All analyses were weighted for complex survey design to represent the population of Colorado. Results. Overall 45.6% of smokers intend never to call the QL. In multivariate analysis, Latinos (odds ratio [OR] = 2.5; 95% confidence intervals [CI], 1.4, 4.7), gay/lesbian/bisexuals (OR = 5.2; 95% CI, 2.4, 11.4), and those with no insurance compared with Medicaid (OR = 3.8; 95% CI, 1.1, 13.0) were most likely to intend never to call the QL. Perceiving no need for assistance (34.8%) was the most common reason for not calling. Conclusions. A majority of smokers have no or weak intentions of ever calling the QL, with variation by subgroup. Reasons for not intending to call can inform targeted media campaigns to increase QL reach. (Am J Health Promot 2011;25[5 Supplement]:S59-S65.)
Distinct Beliefs, Attitudes, and Experiences of Latino Smokers: Relevance for Cessation Interventions
Authors: Zinser Michael C. , Pampel Fred C. , Flores Estevan 
Published: April 2011

Purpose. Determine the extent to which Latino smokers are using effective interventions for smoking cessation, with particular focus on nicotine replacement therapy (NRT). Related aims were to explore cultural, attitudinal, knowledge, and socioeconomic variables associated with treatment use. Design. Cross-sectional telephone survey of two groups of Colorado adult smokers: Latinos (n = 1010) and non-Latino whites (n = 519). Setting. Colorado. Methods. Computer-assisted telephone survey in either Spanish or English. Survey addressed sociodemographic variables; smoking and cessation history; knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs about smoking and quitting; and experiences in and attitudes toward the health care setting. Participants. Latino and non-Latino white adult Colorado residents who reported being regular smokers. Results. Colorado Latinos report using NRT substantially less often than do non-Latino whites residing in the state. This and other differences in the study were more pronounced in Latinos characterized as low acculturation on the basis of a language preference variable. Latinos smoke somewhat less than non-Latino whites and report lower levels of dependence. They appear to be motivated to quit but endorse attitudes and beliefs antithetical to NRT use. Health care access was lower among Latinos, and this was related to lower reports of lifetime NRT use. Receipt of recommended practitioner intervention (the “five As”) did not differ by ethnicity. Conclusions. Results suggested that use of effective cessation interventions among Latinos may be enhanced by education about nicotine addiction and NRT. Policy change to increase health care access also showed promise. (Am J Health Promot 2011;25[5 Supplement]:eS1–eS15.)
Motivating Latino Smokers to Quit: Does Type of Social Support Matter?
Authors: Brothers Brittany M. , Borrelli Belinda 
Published: April 2011

Purpose. Social support may help smokers quit and buffer against factors that hinder quitting. The study's aims are to examine which types of social support are effective for quitting smoking among Latino smokers and whether social support buffers the effects of depressed mood on smoking cessation. Design, Setting, Subjects. Participants were Latino smokers with children with asthma (N = 131, mean age = 37 years, 73% female). They did not have to want to quit smoking to participate. Smoking status was biochemically verified at a 3-month follow-up. Measures. Social support was assessed as whether or not the participant had a significant other, level of perceived general support (Interpersonal Support Evaluation List) and level of perceived partner support for smoking cessation (Partner Interaction Questionnaire). Depressed mood was assessed with the Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression scale. Analysis. Hierarchical logistic regression. Results. Thirty percent of those with a partner quit smoking versus 14.3% of those without a partner. 43.5% of those with high levels of perceived positive partner support quit smoking vs. 17.4% of those with low levels. There was a significant interaction between whether or not a smoker had a partner and depressed mood on quitting: among those not partnered, quit rates were higher among those with low levels of depressed mood (37%) than among those with high levels of depressed mood (9%; odds ratio = 1.147, 95% confidence interval = 1.031-1.276, p < .02). Among those partnered, quit rates were not significantly different between those with high vs. low levels of depressed mood. Conclusions. This paper is the first to examine multiple sources of support for smoking cessation in Latino smokers; partner support and the presence of a significant other are associated with quitting smoking.

ImportanceNeurodevelopmental outcomes for children with congenital heart defects (CHD) have improved minimally over the past 20 years.ObjectivesTo assess the feasibility and tolerability of maternal progesterone therapy as well as the magnitude of the effect on neurodevelopment for fetuses with CHD.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis double-blinded individually randomized parallel-group clinical trial of vaginal natural progesterone therapy vs placebo in participants carrying fetuses with CHD was conducted between July 2014 and November 2021 at a quaternary care children’s hospital. Participants included maternal-fetal dyads where the fetus had CHD identified before 28 weeks’ gestational age and was likely to need surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass in the neonatal period. Exclusion criteria included a major genetic or extracardiac anomaly other than 22q11 deletion syndrome and known contraindication to progesterone. Statistical analysis was performed June 2022 to April 2024.InterventionParticipants were 1:1 block-randomized to vaginal progesterone or placebo by diagnosis: hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), transposition of the great arteries (TGA), and other CHD diagnoses. Treatment was administered twice daily between 28 and up to 39 weeks’ gestational age.Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe primary outcome was the motor score of the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development-III; secondary outcomes included language and cognitive scales. Exploratory prespecified subgroups included cardiac diagnosis, fetal sex, genetic profile, and maternal fetal environment.ResultsThe 102 enrolled fetuses primarily had HLHS (n = 52 [50.9%]) and TGA (n = 38 [37.3%]), were more frequently male (n = 67 [65.7%]), and without genetic anomalies (n = 61 [59.8%]). The mean motor score differed by 2.5 units (90% CI, −1.9 to 6.9 units; P = .34) for progesterone compared with placebo, a value not statistically different from 0. Exploratory subgroup analyses suggested treatment heterogeneity for the motor score for cardiac diagnosis (P for interaction = .03) and fetal sex (P for interaction = .04), but not genetic profile (P for interaction = .16) or maternal-fetal environment (P for interaction = .70).Conclusions and RelevanceIn this randomized clinical trial of maternal progesterone therapy, the overall effect was not statistically different from 0. Subgroup analyses suggest heterogeneity of the response to progesterone among CHD diagnosis and fetal sex.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02133573
Investigating the use of artificial nest boxes positioned at different heights on trees and in isolated positions by dormice (Muscardinus avellanarius): Implications for current survey guidelines
Authors: Bartlett Debbie , Bower Sam , Dear Peter 
Published: May 2024

Abstract

This research, carried out in two phases, is a response to questions raised regarding the validity of surveys based on artificial nest boxes, positioned at around 1.4 m from ground level, to determine the presence of dormice (Muscardinus avellanarius). This species is generally considered to be an arboreal mammal that visits the ground infrequently other than for winter hibernation.

In Phase 1, artificial nest boxes were positioned high in the tree canopy and at standard height on the same tree. The presence of leaves and material from the woodland floor in nests informed the design of Phase 2 with the inclusion of a third box, on an isolated post with no arboreal connectivity, carried out on a different site.

Results demonstrate the presence of dormice and their nests in artificial nest boxes positioned in the tree canopy, at conventional height and on isolated posts with no arboreal connectivity. This suggests that the current method of surveying for dormice using boxes at around 1.4 m from ground level may not result in robust ‘likely absence’ conclusions for surveys aimed at determining the presence of dormice on a site.

Previous experience of long‐term surveys has indicated that use of artificial next boxes declines with age of box. This was confirmed over the 6 years of the second project reported here. While often taken to indicate decline in population alternative explanations are proposed and this is highlighted as requiring further investigation.

The apparent decline of hazel dormice and the contraction of their range is evidenced by surveys carried out according to current ‘good practice’ guidance. The results of this research suggest that these should be reviewed and revised to ensure conservation objectives are being met.

AbstractT lymphocytes play a central role in immunotherapy, utilizing physical interactions to actively inhibit the development of metastases. However, tumor immune privilege and heterogeneity pose challenges by protecting against immune attacks and limiting immune cell infiltration into tumors, particularly in invasive metastatic clusters. Here, a tumor penetrating magnetic particles (TUP) containing the cascade‐responsive cell membrane‐mimetic copolymer (zwitterionic 2‐methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine‐co‐3‐hydroxypyridin‐4‐one, PH) and cuproptosis molecules (elesclomol‐copper, EsCu) for programming T cell infiltration is developed. The intravenously injected TUP accumulates at the tumor via the charge conversion of PH and hyperthermia effects of TUP. In metastatic clusters, ES and Cu, triggered by intracellular environments and hyperthermia, are readily released. ES and Cu simultaneously induce cuproptosis of cancer cells and stimulate immune responses. This process destroys self‐defense mechanisms and exacerbates cytotoxicity. The therapies facilitate the release of tumor‐associated antigens, including neoantigens and damage‐associated molecular patterns. Following this, the 3‐hydroxypyridin‐4‐one groups on TUP act as antigen reservoirs, transporting autologous tumor‐associated antigens to dendritic cells, thereby inducing prolonged immune activation. TUP acts as an antigen reservoir in copper apoptosis‐mediated lung metastasis, promoting the accumulation of immune cells in metastatic clusters and effectively preventing the progression of metastatic tumors.

AbstractNanographenes (NGs) are attracting significant interest as atomically‐thin carbon‐based optical nanomaterials exhibiting a wide range of optical properties that are fine‐tuned with ultimate atomic precision though chemical design. However, the use of NGs in photonic applications remains poorly explored. Here a straightforward procedure is demonstrated to load NGs onto the surface of polystyrene microbeads in order to synthesize a functional light emitting microcomposite. The resulting all‐carbon‐based microbeads behave as optical microresonators displaying narrowband emission lines spread across the whole visible spectrum. The unique fluorescent pattern of individual microbeads enables applications in metrology and information encoding. This is shown, as a proof‐of‐concept, by absolute diameter and refractive index estimates of individual polystyrene microbeads with nanometric precision, and the design of an unclonable photonic microtag for anti‐counterfeiting applications. These results pave the way to a new family of carbon‐based microdevices with a wide range of applications in photonics.

Published: May 2024

AbstractFlexible perovskite solar cells (f‐PSCs) have drawn widespread interest owing to their distinguished advantages in excellent flexibility and relatively low cost. However, the brittle grain boundaries (GBs) and defects in flexible perovskite film tremendously influence the power conversion efficiency (PCE) and mechanical flexibility of f‐PSCs. Herein, photothermal welding, a novel method, is used to improve the perovskite films quality and the PCE of f‐PSCs with a near‐infrared (NIR) dye (indocyanine green, ICG) and polycaprolactone (PCL) as additives. Due to the strong photothermal effect, ICG molecule not only can significantly enhance NIR light harvesting, but it also can weld GBs upon exposure to an NIR laser, which is conducive to the GBs connections and device flexibility. Meanwhile, the S═O bond of ICG and C═O bond of PCL can simultaneously coordinate with Pb2+ defects in perovskite. Furthermore, they can control crystal growth to form a smooth surface of perovskite film. Consequently, the unencapsulated PSCs based on ICG/PCL displays a high champion PCE of 20.62%, with 88.4% of the original PCE after being placed in dark conditions for 600 h. The f‐PSCs delivers a champion PCE of 19.55% and exhibits excellent mechanical stability, thus providing a meaningful scientific direction to fabricate high‐flexible f‐PSCs.
