"Erran nahi baita" birformulatzaile esplikatiboa gaurko euskaran

[EN] This article presents a detailed study of the present-day use of the Basque discourse marker "erran/esan nahi baita" (‘that is to say’). This is an explanatory reformulator by means of which the speaker presents a reformulation of something said in the previous utterance (either a clause that forms part of the current sentence, or the preceding sentence) in order to express it more clearly or explain it. In the article I will examine the marker’s values; literary tradition; form and origin; present-day variants; equivalent expressions; position; punctuation; syntax; frequency, medium (written or spoken), register and text type; equivalents in other languages; and discourse value.

Exploring Genetic Factors Involved in Huntington Disease Age of Onset: E2F2 as a New Potential Modifier Gene

Age of onset (AO) of Huntington disease (HD) is mainly determined by the length of the CAG repeat expansion (CAGexp) in exon 1 of the HTT gene. Additional genetic variation has been suggested to contribute to AO, although the mechanism by which it could affect AO is presently unknown. The aim of this study is to explore the contribution of candidate genetic factors to HD AO in order to gain insight into the pathogenic mechanisms underlying this disorder. For that purpose, two AO definitions were used: the earliest age with unequivocal signs of HD (earliest AO or eAO), and the first motor symptoms age (motor AO or mAO). Multiple linear regression analyses were performed between genetic variation within 20 candidate genes and eAO or mAO, using DNA and clinical information of 253 HD patients from REGISTRY project. Gene expression analyses were carried out by RT-qPCR with an independent sample of 35 HD patients from Basque Country Hospitals. We found suggestive association signals between HD eAO and/or mAO and genetic variation within the E2F2, ATF7IP, GRIN2A, GRIN2B, LINC01559, HIP1 and GRIK2 genes. Among them, the most significant was the association between eAO and rs2742976, mapping to the promoter region of E2F2 transcription factor. Furthermore, rs2742976 T allele patient carriers exhibited significantly lower lymphocyte E2F2 gene expression, suggesting a possible implication of E2F2-dependent transcriptional activity in HD pathogenesis. Thus, E2F2 emerges as a new potential HD AO modifier factor.

Inserciones Alu y heterogeneidad genética de la población gitana del País Vasco

[ES] En este trabajo se ha analizado un grupo de 6 inserciones Alu autosómicas (ACE, APO, PV92, TPA25, FXIIIB y D1) en una muestra de 56 individuos de etnia gitana residentes en el País Vasco, con el objetivo de estimar la intensidad de los procesos de microdiferenciación experimentados por esta población y su parentesco genético con otras poblaciones europeas y asiáticas. Las inserciones Alu polimórficas son unos marcadores muy útiles en los estudios de evolución humana, entre otras razones porque se conoce su estado ancestral, que es la ausencia de inserción y porque se producen por un único evento mutacional. Son por ello particularmente interesantes para analizar la heterogeneidad genética de poblaciones originarias de diferentes continentes.

Klima-aldaketaren eraginak euskal kostaldeko mendebaldeko sakonera handiko begetazio azpimarealean

[eus] Euskal kostaldeko mareazpiko begetazioak aldaketa esanguratsuak jasan ditu azken hiru hamarkadetan. Aurretik egindako ikerketek jakinarazi dute aldaketa horiek klima-aldaketak eragindakoak direla. Ikerketa honen helburua inpaktu horri buruzko informazio gehiago lortzea da. Horretarako, sakonera handiko uretako fitobentosaren osaerari eta ugaritasunari buruzko balioespena egin da. 2014. urteko udan 7 trantsektu ezarri ziren, Kobaroneko muturretik Muskizeko muturreraino. Trantsektu horiek aurretik ikertuak izan ziren 1982 eta 2007 urteetan, eta laginketa suntsitzailea egin zen. Analisi estatistikoek aldaketa esanguratsuak erakusten dituzte sakoneko (9-11m) komunitateetan azken 32 urteetan. Uraren tenperaturaren emendioa eta eguzki-erradiazio altuagoa detektatutako aldaketen erantzuleak izan daitezke neurri batean. Pterosiphonia complanata espezie esziafiloaren gainbeherak eta Cystoseira baccata eta Aphanocladia stichidiosa espezieen ugaritzeak hipotesi hori azaltzen dute. Espero genuenaren kontra, Gelidium corneum espeziea, sakontasun gutxiko uretan gainbehera bortitza jasaten ari dena, ez da 9 metrotik beherako sakonerara lekualdatu. Hala ere, ezin da ziurtatu egungo ingurumeneko baldintzak optimoak ez direnik G. corneum espeziearen garapenerako 9-11 metroko sakoneretan. Migrazio bertikal hori ez gertatzearen arrazoi onargarriena C. baccata- rekiko lehiakortasuna dela dirudi. Bestalde, C. baccata hiru dimentsiotako habitatak eratzeko gai den tamaina handiko alga bat da, espezie askorentzat babesleku gisa diharduena. Ondorioz, haren hedapenak G. corneum-ek sakonera txikiagoetan betetzen zuen funtzioa ordezka lezake neurri batean.

Long-Term Epidemiology of Streptococcus pneumoniae Serogroup 6 in a Region of Southern Europe with Special Reference to Serotype 6E

Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 6E has recently been described, but its long-term epidemiology is not well known. From 1981-2013, 704 serogroup 6 clinical isolates were obtained in Gipuzkoa, Basque Country, Spain. All invasive and one in four non-invasive isolates were included. Overall, 75, 97, 51 and 45 serotypes 6A, 6B, 6C and 6E isolates, respectively, were detected. No serotype 6D isolates were identified. The prevalence of serotypes 6E and 6B, but not that of serotypes 6A and 6C, declined after the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines. Serotype 6E isolates showed the highest resistance rate. Most serotype 6E isolates were ST90.

Intertextualidade: uma contribuição para o ensino de produção escrita

Este trabalho de pesquisa tem como objetivo principal demonstrar que a realização de um trabalho de leitura e de escrita baseado em intertextualidade, especificamente com fábulas e provérbios, resulta no desenvolvimento de habilidade de escrita dos alunos do sexto ano de escolaridade do ensino fundamental. Para tanto, propõe-se a uma intersecção metodológica: de um lado as estratégias didáticas, realizadas ao longo de um trimestre de aulas de Língua Portuguesa, no sexto ano de escolaridade do Colégio Pedro II, Campus Tijuca II, ao qual a pesquisadora está vinculada com atividade docente e de coordenação pedagógica. As atividades propõem uma estreita relação entre leitura de textos de diferentes gêneros e produção escrita, a partir da concepção de intertextualidade; de outro, a organização metodológica dessas produções, com um rigoroso levantamento dos tipos de intertextualidade utilizados nas diferentes produções dos estudantes, comprovando que o estímulo constante alimenta o desenvolvimento da proficiência de escrita, havendo o aumento do uso de diferentes tipos de intertextualidade. Do ponto de vista teórico, esta pesquisa propõe percurso histórico da intertextualidade tanto na perspectiva literária quanto na linguística, baseando-se nos autores Bakhtin (2011), Bazerman (2011), Koch (2007), Vigner (2002), Laurent Jenny (1979) e Barthes (2013), o que contribui para a ampliação do conceito chave: intertextualidade. Postula-se que o trabalho de leitura de diferentes gêneros possibilita o estabelecimento da intertextualidade por meio da multiplicidade de temas, de conteúdos e de enfoques e que esse procedimento leva os alunos a produzirem textos com nível mais alto de informatividade e expressividade. Esta estratégia didática favorece o surgimento de novos procedimentos para o ensino de Língua Portuguesa, contribuindo, sobremaneira para o desenvolvimento da competência discursiva dos estudantes do 6 ano de escolaridade

Roadmapping in industrial companies: Experiences

From its origins in the US electronics sector in the 1970s, technology roadmapping has been adapted (and adopted) widely, for many different innovation, strategy and policy applications. Communication is commonly cited as one of the key benefi ts of roadmapping, particularly in terms of the process that brings different organizational perspectives together, with the roadmap providing a common visual 'language'. There is signifi cant demand for methods that are agile, in the sense of being rapid, flexible and effective to apply, focused on strategic decisions and actions. 'Fast-start' roadmapping workshop techniques enable key stakeholders to address strategic issues efficiently using the visual structure of roadmaps to capture, discuss, prioritize, explore and communicate. This paper presents the learning from a set of five diverse applications of the fast-start approach in the Basque Country, which demonstrate the agility of the technique.

The use of two relations in L-fuzzy contexts

In the analysis of relations among the elements of two sets it is usual to obtain different values depending on the point of view from which these relations are measured. The main goal of the paper is the modelization of these situations by means of a generalization of the L-fuzzy concept analysis called L-fuzzy bicontext. We study the L-fuzzy concepts of these L-fuzzy bicontexts obtaining some interesting results. Specifically, we will be able to classify the biconcepts of the L-fuzzy bicontext. Finally, a practical case is developed using this new tool.
