Different studies have decomposed the prices of tourism products into the implicit prices of their attributes (category and services), location and time of the year. These studies usually consider location as a residual indicator of the environment surrounding the tourism product, that is, an indicator unexplained by the model and which includes several elements. This paper analyses in-depth the factors which, according with previous studies, might be include in the variable “location”, such as natural capital; cultural, gastronomic and sportive supply; or public goods and services

Background: Our goal was to determine whether short-term intermittent hypoxia exposure, at a level well tolerated by healthy humans and previously shown by our group to increase EPO and erythropoiesis, could mobilizehematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and increase their presence in peripheral circulation. Methods: Four healthy male subjects were subjected to three different protocols: one with only a hypoxic stimulus (OH), another with a hypoxic stimulus plus muscle electrostimulation (HME) and the third with only muscle electrostimulation (OME). Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia exposureconsisted of only three sessions of three hours at barometric pressure 540 hPa (equivalent to an altitude of 5000 m) for three consecutive days, whereas muscular electrostimulation was performed in two separate periods of 25 min in each session. Blood samples were obtained from an antecubital vein on three consecutive days immediately before the experiment and 24 h, 48 h, 4 days and 7 days after the last day of hypoxic exposure. Results: There was a clear increase in the number of circulating CD34+ cells after combined hypobaric hypoxia and muscular electrostimulation. This response was not observed after the isolated application of the same stimuli. Conclusion: Our results open a new application field for hypobaric systems as a way to increase efficiency in peripheral HSC collection.

Recentment, el Departament d’Educació de la Generalitat de Catalunya ha publicat regulacions sobre els plans individuals per als alumnes considerats més vulnerables. Se n’han determinat els components i les condicions que s’han de donar per al seu inici. Aquest article considera la possibilitat de desenvolupar aquests plans individuals a partir d’enfocaments multidimensionals d’atenció a les necessitats singulars de l’alumnat de les escoles ordinàries, i presenta algunes propostes per abordar aquests procediments des de les perspectives relacionades amb els Plans Educatius Individualitzats en contextos diferents.

Assessing the contribution of promoters and coding sequences to gene evolution is an important step toward discovering the major genetic determinants of human evolution. Many specific examples have revealed the evolutionary importance of cis-regulatory regions. However, the relative contribution of regulatory and coding regions to the evolutionary process and whether systemic factors differentially influence their evolution remains unclear. To address these questions, we carried out an analysis at the genome scale to identify signatures of positive selection in human proximal promoters. Next, we examined whether genes with positively selected promoters (Prom+ genes) show systemic differences with respect to a set of genes with positively selected protein-coding regions (Cod+ genes). We found that the number of genes in each set was not significantly different (8.1% and 8.5%, respectively). Furthermore, a functional analysis showed that, in both cases, positive selection affects almost all biological processes and only a few genes of each group are located in enriched categories, indicating that promoters and coding regions are not evolutionarily specialized with respect to gene function. On the other hand, we show that the topology of the human protein network has a different influence on the molecular evolution of proximal promoters and coding regions. Notably, Prom+ genes have an unexpectedly high centrality when compared with a reference distribution (P = 0.008, for Eigenvalue centrality). Moreover, the frequency of Prom+ genes increases from the periphery to the center of the protein network (P = 0.02, for the logistic regression coefficient). This means that gene centrality does not constrain the evolution of proximal promoters, unlike the case with coding regions, and further indicates that the evolution of proximal promoters is more efficient in the center of the protein network than in the periphery. These results show that proximal promoters have had a systemic contribution to human evolution by increasing the participation of central genes in the evolutionary process.

The study of transcriptional regulation often needs the integration of diverse yet independent data. In the present work, sequence conservation, predic-tion of transcription factor binding sites (TFBS) and gene expression analysis have been applied to the detection of putative transcription factor (TF) modules in the regulatory region of the FGFR3 oncogene. Several TFs with conserved binding sites in the FGFR3 regulatory region have shown high positive or negative corre-lation with FGFR3 expression both in urothelial carcinoma and in benign nevi. By means of conserved TF cluster analysis, two different TF modules have been iden-tified in the promoter and first intron of FGFR3 gene. These modules contain acti-vating AP2, E2F, E47 and SP1 binding sites plus motifs for EGR with possible repressor function.

This paper presents the results of the first phase of archaeological and historical study developed in the Vallès Oriental. It has done a complete study of the archaeological information available from the several documentary sources (bibliography, IPAC, etc.). This has lead to an interpretative update on the forms of occupation and settlement dynamics developed in the study area during the 5th BC to 1st century AD. Preliminary results of the archaeomorphological analysis focused primarily on the road network are also presented. The first results highlight the importance of territorial organization programs of the late 2nd BC and 1st century BC. In this sense, it has been documented a close relationship between the road network and the distribution of rural settlements in late-Republican and Augustan periods. The use of databases in the management of archaeological information, and especially the application of GIS in the analysis and interpretation of data, suggest new interpretive approaches.

La primera publicació de l’Institut enceta la Sèrie Documenta, que respon a la voluntat de promoure i editar estudis que donin a conèixer i emmarquin científicament nous elements de la cultura material de l’antiguitat clàssica.Aquest llibre estudia un conjunt de pintura mural dels segles V o VI que decorava les parets d’una casa funerària, convertida després en oratori, i que fou descoberta a la necròpolis alta de l’antiga ciutat d’Oxirinc (Mínia, Egipte). El cicle pictòric presenta una sobrietat simbolista que evoluciona després en una iconografia rica en figures i colors.Tot això, completat per la gens menyspreable qualitat artística de les representacions pictòriques, fa d’aquest conjunt una peça arqueològica molt singular.L’estudi inclou un primer capítol a càrrec del Dr. Josep Padró, de la Universitat de Barcelona, Maite Mascort i Hassan Ibrahim Amer, on es sintetitzen els treballs arqueològics i històrics realitzats, des de l’any 1992, a l’antiga Oxirin. Tot seguit, la Dra. Eva Subías, investigadora de la Universitat Rovira i Virgili i col·laboradora de l’Institut des del primer moment, ens ofereix l’estudi històricoartístic del cicle mural. Finalment, Concepció Piedrafita ens dóna la lectura i traducció dels textos grecs presents en les pintures.L’obra inclou una presentació a càrrec de Josep Guitart, director de l’Institut Català d’Arqueologia Clàssica i una traducció dels textos al francès.

L'ACME és una plataforma d'e-learning utilitzada a la Universitat de Girona que permet la correcció automètica d'un gran nombre d'exercicis de tipologies variades via web. Actualments'utilitza com a eina de seguiment del treball diari dels alumnes en moltes carreresi facultats de la Universitat de Girona, que els permet consolidar la matèria explicada aclasse.Actualment tots els fitxers que contenen la implementació dels exercicis definits a l'ACMEestan en format LATEXi segueixen uns formats d'escriptura concrets, no estàndards i moltsdefiits per a la seva posterior lectura i interpretació. Aquesta alta especificitat i mancad'estandardització fa difícil l'aprenentatge de l'escriptura per part dels professors que volenfer servir l'ACME. La majoria d'ells es limiten a escriure exercicis nous a partir d'exercicisantics, desconeixen per complet si amb la tipologia d'exercici que utilitzen estan fent servirtot el potencial, o no, que permet l'eina. És en aquest punt que neix aquest ProjecteFinal de Carrera amb la intenció de desenvolupar una eina que permeti facilitar, millorar iampliar la metodologia d'escriptura de nous exercicis a l'ACME.L'objectiu d'aquest Projecte Final de Carrera era desenvolupar una metodologia d'escripturad'exercicis diferent, innovadora i a l'abast de qualsevol professor per poder crear noustipus d'exercicis amb facilitat i sense haver de necessitar coneixements sobre programació

Se presentan los resultados de la investigación arqueomorfológica desarrollada en los últimos años en el ager Tarraconensis. El análisis de las formas del paisaje realizado muestra una compleja morfología agraria caracterizada por la presencia de diversas tramas centuriadas, fosilizadas en la morfología moderna del territorio. Por otra parte, las posibilidades abiertas por el análisis digital son importantes en relación con la fiabilidad del registro planimétrico, la precisión de las restituciones y la posibilidad de integrar gran diversidad de fuentes en un mismo entorno. Se han realizado también modelos topográficos en tres dimensiones, a partir de documentos fotográficos y cartográficos anteriores a las grandes reformas territoriales de los años sesenta generándose documentos que permiten una mejor aproximación al conocimiento del territorio antiguo. Asimismo los análisis de visibilidad aportan sugerentes hipótesis sobre como se concibió y planificó la actuación de los agrimensores romanos, así como sobre la articulación entre la estructura urbana y el territorio, y las tramas centuriadas entre sí. La integración de datos en la zona estudiada demuestra la profunda estructuración del territorio, relacionada específicamente con la promoción de Tarraco a colonia en época de César. Desde esta perspectiva se aporta nueva información sobre la implantación de la ciudad en el paisaje del ager Tarraconensis en época tardo-republicana.

El análisis antracológico, dendrológico y tafonómico de tres estructuras pastoriles de época moderna del yacimiento de Pleta de l’Estall Serrer (valle delMadriu, Andorra) situado a 1.980mde altitud, nosmuestra una presencia casi absoluta del pino tipo negro y la presencia puntual de taxones arbustivos como las ericáceas. Se trata de especies típicas en un bosque subalpino de pino negro. La presencia casi absoluta del pino, nos ha permitido observar diferentes alteraciones de la madera que nos han proporcionado una gran información sobre el uso de la madera, sobre todo las alteraciones por microorganismos. Hemos podido distinguir varios tipos de alteraciones causadas tanto por insectos xilófagos e hifas de hongos. Además, hemos identificado algunos individuos de termitas subterráneas tanto vivas como carbonizadas. Las primeras son termitas que atacan la madera arqueológica durante los procesos postdeposicionales y las termitas carbonizadas seguramente fueron la causa del deterioro de las estructuras y su posterior destrucción a través de su incendio.
