Les fondations d’entreprise, partenaires émergents de l’écosystème économie sociale et solidaire ?
Authors: Cournac Anna , Touratier-Muller Nathalie 
Published: July 2022

Les travaux sur les fondations d’entreprise dans un contexte français sont peu nombreux. Or les fondations d’entreprise constituent non seulement un bailleur et un partenaire potentiel des acteurs de l’économie sociale et solidaire, mais aussi un acteur de l’intérêt général. Sur la base d’entretiens semi-directifs menés auprès de 20 structures, les auteures proposent une contribution à la connaissance des fondations d’entreprise en France. Ces organisations se révèlent être un acteur souple, s’adaptant en permanence à des contraintes internes et externes fluctuantes, se ménageant la possibilité de s’extraire de ces contraintes en prenant du recul, en redéfinissant son rôle, voire en participant à la définition de l’intérêt général.
Ne pas dire la sexualité
Authors: Toffel Kevin , Braizaz Marion 
Published: July 2022

Alors que la sexualité constitue l’un des aspects de la qualité de vie les plus problématiques pendant et après un cancer, les soignant·e·s peinent à aborder cette thématique avec les patient·e·s. Notre enquête menée auprès d’infirmier·e·s exerçant au sein de services d’oncologie révèle que loin des préceptes de l’« approche globale », valeur centrale du rôle infirmier qui implique la prise en charge des patient·e·s dans l’intégralité de leur rapport à la santé, l’abord de la sexualité est rare. Si plusieurs éléments contribuent à ce tabou ( e.g. les conditions de travail, le manque de formation), nos résultats montrent que la compréhension des socialisations hors travail ( e.g. familiale, religieuse) et des biographies affectives et sexuelles des soignant·e·s est particulièrement féconde pour saisir ses tenants. Les propensions à parler de sexualité sont indissociables des dispositions sociales façonnées sur une longue durée qui influent la manière dont les individus investissent leur rôle de professionnel·le de santé.
Dietary Patterns Suggest West Virginia Bobcats Are Generalist Carnivores

Published: July 2022

AbstractThe proportion and diversity of prey species consumed by bobcats Lynx rufus are often correlated with prey abundances, individual skill level, environmental conditions, and habitat quality. Bobcats generally consume prey species that rely on mast—the fruits of trees—for basic life-history requirements. In West Virginia forests, many mast-producing tree species have declined over the past 40 y, yet the last known study on bobcat diet in the state was in 1977. Thus, we need current data to understand the effects of forest compositional changes on bobcat dietary patterns. We evaluated stomach contents of 300 bobcats collected over the 2014–2015 (n = 150) and 2015–2016 (n = 150) hunting and trapping seasons in West Virginia. Simpson's index of diversity indicated an 87% probability that two randomly selected prey items belong to different species, supporting the idea of bobcats as generalist carnivores. White-tailed deer (hereafter deer) Odocoileus virginianus (32%), mice and rats (families Cricetidae, Dipodidae, and Muridae; 30.7%), rabbits (family Leporidae; 21.3%), Virginia opossum Didelphis virginiana (18.7%), and squirrels (family Sciuridae; 17.3%) occurred most frequently. We found 92% dietary overlap between sexes and 35% between stage classes. Deer, opossum, and raccoon Procyon lotor occurred more frequently in males, whereas rabbits occurred more frequently in females. Deer occurred more frequently in adults; raccoons in yearlings; and mice and rats in juveniles. Overall occurrence of deer (−17.1%), rodents (order Rodentia; −9.5%), opossum (+13.5%), and raccoon (+5.1%) differed significantly between the 1977 study and this study, which may allude to changes in the abundance of mast-dependent prey species over time. Similarly, hard mast (i.e., nuts) production had a significant interaction effect with study season on the overall occurrence of squirrels in bobcat diets. By improving our understanding of bobcat trophic interactions, we can better manage their populations and ecological communities by managing for the dietary requirements of their common prey species.

Comment refonder la démocratie après le nazisme ? Par où commencer dans un pays rasé, occupé et divisé ? Sur quelle expérience s’appuyer ?
En 1945, une poignée d’hommes et de femmes politiques aguerris, ayant survécu à la guerre et aux persécutions, entreprit de rebâtir les institutions. Ce livre retrace le parcours de trente-quatre fondateurs de la démocratie ouest-allemande, députés élus au Reichstag avant 1933 et au Bundestag après 1949. Leur expérience de l’effondrement en 1933 et de la dictature nazie les mua en démocrates attentifs et favorisa leur engagement après 1945. Leurs récits entremêlés offrent une lecture inédite du tumultueux XXe siècle allemand. Ils témoignent de la continuité de la tradition démocratique allemande par-delà le nazisme.
Cet ouvrage intéressera toutes celles et tous ceux qui s’interrogent sur la culture politique outre-Rhin, mais aussi sur la fragilité constitutive de la démocratie.
La Jeune critique des petites revues symbolistes
Authors: Vérilhac Yoan 
Published: July 2022

L’extraordinaire développement de la petite presse littéraire qui a accompagné le mouvement symboliste est un phénomène remarquable de l’histoire littéraire. Laboratoire d’expérimentation pour les esthétiques d’avant-garde, mais aussi véritable invention médiatique, la petite revue constitue une appropriation des pratiques journalistiques, de la critique littéraire au premier chef. Quel rôle la critique périodique peut-elle jouer dans l’inscription de la littérature dans la modernité ? quel emploi constitue celui de critique en regard de celui d’artiste ? Au moment où les écrivains semblent considérer de la façon la plus radicale que l’avènement de l’ère médiatique porte en soi la mort de la littérature, la figure du jeune critique de revue émerge : lutteur intolérant, chroniqueur inlassable de l’actualité artistique et de la vie moderne, il s’impose comme l’interlocuteur indispensable du pur poète et comme une voix essentielle dans le système de communication littéraire qui se met en place dans les vingt dernières années du XIXe siècle.

Published: July 2022

Background and purpose:

Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) is known as a pathogen with antibiotic resistance, causing respiratory infections. PLGA has been approved for use in vaccines as well as drug delivery. This study was performed to evaluate PLGA nanoparticles containing the outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of A. baumannii in stimulating the mice’s immune system and improving pneumonia.

Experimental approach:
Double emulsion solvent evaporation technique was used. The properties of the obtained nanospheres were determined using a zetasizer, FTIR, and AFM devices. Nanoparticles were administered to mice BALB/c by applying the intramuscular route. ELISA was used to measure the amounts of immunoglobulins produced; also, an opsonophagocytic killing assay was used to measure the effectiveness of immunoglobulins. Immunized mice were then challenged with live A. baumannii through the lungs; their internal organs were also removed for bacteriological studies.

Findings/Results:
The prepared particles were 550 nm in diameter with a negative surface charge. The production of the OMPs specific IgG was much higher in the group receiving nanoparticles containing antigen as compared to those getting pure antigen. The immunoglobulins produced against nanoparticles were superior to those developed against pure antigens. Mice that received the new nanovaccine were more resistant to pneumonia caused by this bacterium than those that received pure antigen.

Conclusion and implication:
Overall, it can be said that PLGA nanoparticles could deliver their internal antigens (OMPs) well to the immune system of mice and stimulate humoral immunity in these animals, thus protecting them against pneumonia caused by A. baumannii.
Ectopic fat deposition and its related abnormalities of lipid metabolism followed by nonalcoholic fatty pancreas
Authors: Chen Yan , Zhang Pingping , Lv Shunli , Su Xiaoju , Du Yiqi , Xu Can , Jin Zhendong 
Published: July 2022

Background and Objectives:
The positive energy balance between caloric intake and caloric output increasing storage of triglycerides (TG) in adipocytes has made nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) one of the major public health problems in China. Excessive lipid deposition in the pancreas is referred to as nonalcoholic fatty pancreas disease (NAFPD). Early assessment of pancreatic fat infiltration will have an increasing role in the clinical management of the metabolic dysregulation and prevention pancreatic complications.

Subjects and Methods:
We retrospectively collected data of inpatients with NAFPD from EUS database between September 2012 and August 2020 at our endoscopic center. The prevalence of NAFPD and factors associated with its development were statistically analyzed. The echogenicity of the pancreas was compared to that of the left renal cortex during the EUS examination by using an existing criterion.

Results:
Four thousand, seven hundred and four consecutive individuals underwent EUS were enrolled. The prevalence of NAFPD was 1.2% (57/4704). Factors independently associated with NAFPD on multivariate analysis were increasing TG (odds ratios [OR] 4.65, P = 0.014), NAFLD (OR 16.76, P = 0.005) and decreasing apolipoprotein A-1 (OR 0.002, P = 0.0127). We found no association between NAFPD and age, sex, total cholesterol or hypertension.

Conclusions:
We found a meaningful relationship between NAFLD, dyslipidemia, and NAFPD in Chinese. We hypothesized that NAFPD was strongly correlated with ectopic fat deposition and its related abnormalities of lipid metabolism. Early diagnosis of NAFLD provides opportunities to control the progression of NAFPD.

Published: July 2022

Background:
The value of contrast.enhanced harmonic EUS (CH.EUS) for diagnosis of portal vein invasion in patients with pancreatic cancer was evaluated.

Patients and Methods:
This single-center, retrospective study included consecutive patients with pancreatic cancer who underwent both surgical resection after preoperative EUS, CH-EUS, and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CE-CT) examinations between April 2015 and August 2017. CH-EUS evaluation was performed during the late phase. Portal vein invasion on EUS and CH-EUS was defined as no continuity in the line of the vessel wall. Definition of portal vein invasion on CE-CT was based on the Loyer’s criteria. The accuracy of three modalities for diagnosis of invasion into the portal vein was compared using the McNemar’s test.

Results:
Eighty-eight patients (mean age: 71.0 years, ratio of male to female: 48:40) were eligible. Postoperative pathological results were as follows: seven cases of portal vein invasion; 81 cases without. Diagnostic accuracy of EUS, CH-EUS, and CE-CT for diagnosing invasion into the portal vein was 72.7%, 93.2%, and 81.8%, respectively. The differences between CH-EUS and CE-CT (P = 0.0094) and CH-EUS and EUS (P = 0.0022) were significant. EUS and CE-CT were comparable.

Conclusion:
CH-EUS is useful for diagnosis of portal vein invasion by pancreatic cancer.
Optimum Value of Scale and Threshold for Compression of 99mTc-MDP Bone Scan Images using Haar Wavelet Transform
Authors: Pandey Anil Kumar , Chaudhary Jagrati , Sharma Akshima , Patel Hemakshi Chetan , Sharma Param Dev , Baghel Vivek , Kumar Rakesh 
Published: July 2022

Introduction:
Wavelet transforms of an image result in set of wavelet coefficients. Thresholding eliminates insignificant coefficients while retaining the significant ones (resulting in matrix having few nonzero elements that need to be stored). The compressed image is reconstructed by applying inverse wavelet transform. The quality of compressed image deteriorates with increase in compression. Hence, finding optimum value of scale and threshold is a challenging task. The objective of the study was to find the optimum value of scale and threshold for compressing 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate (99 mTc-MDP) bone scan images using Haar wavelet transform.

Materials and Methods:
Haar wavelet transform at scale 1–8 was applied on 106 99 mTc-MDP whole-body bone scan images, and wavelet coefficients were threshold at 90, 95, 97, and 99 percentiles, followed by inverse wavelet transform to get 3392 compressed images. Nuclear medicine physician (NMP) compared compressed image with its corresponding input to label it as acceptable or unacceptable. The values of scale and threshold that resulted in majority of acceptable images were considered to be optimum. The quality of compressed image was also evaluated using perception image quality evaluator (PIQE) image quality metrics. Compression ratio was calculated by dividing the number of nonzero elements after thresholding wavelet coefficients by the number of nonzero elements in Haar decomposed matrix.

Results:
NMP found quality of compressed images (obtained at scale 2 and 90 percentile threshold) identical to the quality of the corresponding input images. As per PIQE score, quality of compressed images was perceptually better than that of the corresponding input images.

Conclusions:
The optimum values of scale and threshold were determined to be 2 and 90 percentiles, respectively.
Complicated femoral hernia: Minimally invasive surgery management
Authors: Veetil Deepa Kizhakke , Wadhawan Randeep , Verma Naveen Kumar , Tanai Shamsu Rehman 
Published: July 2022

Introduction:
Complicated femoral hernias can be managed by minimally invasive surgery techniques in the select group of patients. This helps reduce the morbidity of open surgery and enables faster recovery of the patient.

Concerns Addressed:
Delay in diagnosis can be reduced by a good clinical examination of the patient with a high index of suspicion for these patients. Imaging helps to confirm the clinical diagnosis and plan the operative intervention. In trained hands, the complicated femoral hernias can be managed by laparoscopy which enables better visualisation. Post-operative recovery is also enabled by the minimally invasive surgery done.

Conclusion:
Minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery can be done in the select group of cases of complicated femoral hernia by trained surgeons.

Authors: De Oliveira Edemir Marques 
Published: July 2022

O objeto do presente estudo é examinar os possí­veis efeitos fiscais sob a ótica do imposto de renda da pessoa fí­sica no Brasil considerando caso prático de indiví­duo residente fiscal no Brasil participante de plano de opção de compra de ações de empresa transnacional no exterior (controladora ou coligada da empregadora no Brasil) e que, após perí­odo de "vesting" e exercí­cio de opção de compra ocorrido no Brasil, é expatriado para os Estados Unidos e lá efetua a venda das ações. A falta de previsão normativa especí­fica no Brasil sobre remuneração baseada em ações traz grande discussão acerca dos impactos fiscais dos planos. Recentemente o CARF divulgou acórdãos abordando questões atinentes ao momento da ocorrência do fato gerador do imposto de renda da pessoa fí­sica em situações envolvendo planos de opções de ações. Desta forma, o presente estudo pretende contribuir para solidificar o entendimento a respeito da natureza jurí­dica dos benefí­cios concedidos com base em ações, e seus efeitos relacionados à tributação internacional da renda, em especial quanto ao fenômeno da dupla tributação jurí­dica em face dessas recentes decisões proferidas no âmbito do CARF.

Published: July 2022

Purpose: The purpose of this research was to establish the relationship between teachers’ welfare and performance of government aided primary schools in Isingiro district, Uganda.
Methodology: A cross sectional research design and post-positivist paradigm were used to collect data from 118 government aided primary schools in Isingiro district, Uganda where 475 respondents participated in the study. The study used closed-ended questionnaires, interview guide and checklists. The schools to be included were selected using simple random sampling and were considered as unit of analysis while the respondents who included District officials, head teachers, teachers and school management committee members formed the unit of enquiry, these were selected purposively based on the knowledge they had on the subject matter. Each school selected, provided the information from the respondents who in this case were the head teacher, two teachers and a chairperson of school management committee member. The research was guided by the null hypothesis, Ho1: Teachers’ welfare has no relationship with performance of government aided primary schools in Isingiro district, Uganda.
Findings: The findings of the study revealed a positive significant relationship between teachers’ welfare and performance of government aided performance primary school at 99% level of confidence (r=.546, p<.01), thus rejecting the null hypothesis (Ho1). The results signify that increase in teachers’ welfare, is highly associated with good performance of government aided primary schools in Isingiro district, Uganda.
Recommendations: This study recommend the government through the Ministry of Education & Sports to impose the minimum-wage law for government aided primary school teachers’ pay which possibly caters for teachers’ motivation when given some due care and attention. In addition, the Ministry of Education & Sports should create social benefits for government aided primary school teachers as a means to enhance their wellbeing and motivate them. Moreover, it is also recommended that government aided primary schools’ teachers be given some allowances such as rental, medical care and transport to motivate them.
