Consequences of Justifications of Assessments in French Expanded Audit Reports

2018

Since 2003, French auditors must disclose justifications of assessments (JOAs) in expanded audit reports. Like critical audit matters recently introduced in the US and key audit matters introduced by international standard setters, the purpose of JOAs is to enhance the informative value of audit reports. Based on French audit reports issued from 2002 to 2011, we analyze the impact of first-time implementation of JOAs, and the impact of new JOAs in subsequent years, on investors (measured by abnormal returns and abnormal trading volume) and on the audit (measured by audit report lag, abnormal accruals, and audit fees). For both first-time implementation of JOAs and new JOAs in subsequent yea…

Patients' conceptions of undergoing physiotherapy for persistent low back pain delivered in Finnish primary healthcare by physiotherapists who had pa…

2020

To explore the conceptions of patients with persistent low back pain (LBP) of undergoing physiotherapy delivered in Finnish primary healthcare by physiotherapists who had participated in brief training in Cognitive Functional Therapy (CFT).As part of a feasibility implementation study exploring CFT in management of LBP in the Finnish primary healthcare system, we interviewed nine patients from four geographical areas in Finland after receiving care. We used a phenomenographic approach to explore the variation in their conceptions.The analysis revealed four descriptive categories: "hung out to dry," "stuck," "making sense and taking control," and "holistic approach to care and living," that …

MINIMIZING INFLIXIMAB TOXICITY IN THE TREATMENT OF INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE

2008

Abstract Background Infliximab is a widely used biological agent for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease, and has a favorable risk/benefit ratio. Aim It is useful to know that patients treated with infliximab are exposed to developing adverse events that could be reduced with a prudent and a rational clinical approach and by optimizing the treatment protocol. Methods PubMed (including Epub) was searched in October 2006 and again in March 2007. Results The high immunogenic potential of infliximab determines the antibodies that inhibit the effect of infliximab and the appearance of subsequent acute and delayed infusion reactions. Infliximab has an immunomodulatory effect, thus increas…

Guidance strategies and motor modelling in physiotherapy

1996

Patient education is an important aspect of physiotherapy. Supporting and developing patients' self-motivation and activity requires efficient education during the practice period. Physiotherapists use predominantly verbal instruction and demonstration in their teaching activities. The aim of this study was to investigate how physiotherapists organise their therapeutic interventions in order to facilitate patients' learning. This was done by studying the ways in which physiotherapists provide their patients with the mental and motoric imagery pertaining to the action to be performed using verbal, visual and manual guidance. The study was undertaken at three hospitals in southern Finland. Fi…

Pour cela, nous proposons un éclairage particulier sur la Fondation Guggenheim, précurseur en la matière, ce qui nous permettra tout à la fois d'illustrer nos propos, de comprendre les modalités de mise en œuvre d'une stratégie d'internationalisation dans le secteur muséal et de mettre en avant les limites ou les risques liés à cette stratégie.

Dwa ujęcia prawa muzeów

2021

W artykule dokonano analizy dwóch nowych, opublikowanych w 2021 r., komentarzy do Ustawy o muzeach: pierwszego pióra A. Barbasiewicza, prawnika prowadzącego sprawy z zakresu dziedzictwa kulturowego, oraz drugiego autorstwa zespołu uczonych – Z. Cieślika, I. Gredki- -Ligarskiej, P. Gwoździewicz-Matan, I. Lipowicz, A. Matana, K. Zeidlera – specjalizujących się w prawie i postępowaniu administracyjnym oraz prawnej ochronie zabytków. Obie publikacje prezentują różne spojrzenia na ten sam problem, a tym samym wzajemnie się uzupełniają. Odmienność perspektyw sprawia przy tym, że do każdego z nich może z powodzeniem sięgnąć zarówno doświadczony praktyk, jak i osoba, dla której jest to pierwszy kon…

Comptabilité à base d'activités (ABC) et activités informatiques : une contribution à l'amélioration des processus informatiques d'une banque

2010

The aim of the paper is to describe the Activity-based Costing and Management methods applied in France. For that purpose, we use a literature review and a case study. In a first time, we analyse the origins of the methods and their diffusion. Then we present the French situation. Finally, we propose a case study that takes place in a French bank. Our paper shows that the ABC and ABM methods are as developed in France as in the Anglo-Saxon countries and that the methods are strategically oriented.
