Precisiones conceptuales en la definición de la sinécdoque como tropo metonímico
The concept of synecdoche is specified in this paper according to the interrelationship of its constitutive properties: semiotic inclusion and oblique denotation. Synecdoche is analysed as a particular metonymic procedure, but distinguished from this trope by the relation between the denotatives poles on which it acts on the pre-syntagmatic level.El concepto de sinécdoque se precisa en este trabajo según la interrelación de sus propiedades constitutivas: la inclusión semiótica y la denotación oblicua. Con ello se muestra su vinculación a la metonimia, como procedimiento que produce también una denotación oblicua, pero diferenciado de este tropo por la relación entre los polos denotativos sobre los que actúa en el nivel pre- sintagmático.Le concept de synecdoque se spécifie dans cet article selon la relation de ses propriétés constitutives: l’inclusion sémiotique et la dénotation oblique. Ainsi on voit sa liaison à la métonymie, comme un procédé qui produit aussi une dénotation oblique, mais différencié de ce trope par la relation entre les pôles denotatives sur lesquels elle agit au niveau pre-syntagmatique.Le concept de synecdoque se spécifie dans cet article selon la relation de ses propriétés constitutives: l’inclusion sémiotique et la dénotation oblique.

An integrated targeted and untargeted approach for the analysis of ergot alkaloids in cereals using UHPLC - hybrid quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry
An ultra-high performance liquid chromatography hybrid quadrupole time of flight (Q-TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) method is described for the simultaneous quantitative determination of common ergot alkaloids and the screening, detection and identification of unexpected (less studied or novel) members of this class of toxic fungal secondary metabolites. The employed analytical strategy involves an untargeted data acquisition (consisting of full scan TOF MS survey and information dependent acquisition MS/MS scans) and the processing of data using both targeted and untargeted approaches. Method performance characteristics for the quantitative analysis of 6 common ergot alkaloids i.e. ergometrine, ergosine, ergotamine, ergocornine, ergocristine, ergokryptine and their corresponding epimers in rye were comparable to those previously reported for triple-quadrupole (QqQ) MS/MS. The method limits of quantification (LOQ) were in the range from 3 to 19 mu g/kg, and good linearity was observed for the different ergot alkaloids in the range from LOQ to 1000 mu g/kg. Furthermore, the method demonstrated good precision (relative standard deviations at 50 mu g/kg not higher than 14.6 and 16.2% for the intra-day and inter-day precision, respectively), and the trueness values at different concentration levels were all between 89 and 115%. The method was applied for the analysis of a set of 17 rye samples and demonstrated the presence of these ergot alkaloids in the range from <LOQ to 2,811 mu g/kg. Further mining of the same data based on a 'non-targeted peak finding' algorithm and the use of full MS and MS/MS accurate mass data allowed the detection and identification of 19 ergot alkaloids that are commonly not included in most analytical methods using QqQ instruments. Some of these alkaloids are reported for the first time in naturally contaminated samples

Situación legislativa de preparados para lactantes y de continuación
Furrd~rmenro: Los sustitutos de la leche materna han sido
comercializados con gran trascendencia económica, a veces sin
tener en cuenta los aspectos sanitarios y nutricionales para el
consumidor. Las autoridades sanitarias se han visto implicadas
en este tema, tanto a nivel Internacional como Europeo, dictando
normas o directrices a seguir en la comercialización de los
sustitutos de la leche materna, que han sido adoptadas por la legislación
Española. El objetivo del trabajo es comentar las normas
que reglamentan los preparados alimenticios de lactantes y
niños de corta edad.
hf~IfJd0.S: Se analizan y comentan los contenidos de las normas.
tanto internacionales, como europeas y nacionales, de preparados
pnm lactantes y de continuación.
Rrsuit~r&s: Las normas sobre preparados pam lactantes y
de continuación prohiben el término de “leches matemizadas” e
insisten en la locroncirr mrrtrrna que ~610 deberd ser sustituida
por indicación de personal sanitario. Esta legislación regula,
ademas, su composición química, cualitativa y cuantitativa; establece
normas para el correcto etiquetado, que deberá contener
una información adecuada sin idealizar el producto, pero sí se
admiten gmficas o dibujos que ilustren una correcta preparación;
contempla la distribución, venta y adecuada publicidad.
que deber5 ser controlada, prohibiendo las muestras gratuitas o
cualquier donación tanto a particulares como a centros sanitarios.
Cnnclusionus: Con la situación actual sobre “preparados
para lactantes y de continuación”, las autoridades sanitarias intentan
que el cumplimiento de las normas legislativas beneficien
la adecuada alimentación del lactante y nifío de corta edad, siendo
responsabilidad de todos la protección de este tipo de consumidor.Bockground: The comercialization of breast milk substitutes
has had great economic transcendente, sometimes without considering
the sanitary and nutritional consequences for the customer.
The sanitary authorities have been implied in this matter both in the
Intemational and European tields, issuing standards and regulations
for the commercialization of breats milk substitutes which
have been adopted by the Spanish Regulation. The aim of mis paper
is comment the tegulations that affect foods for breas&feeding
and short age children.
Merliorls: This report analyzes and comments on the contets
of intemational, european and national regulation on infant
and follow-on formula.
Rtwlts: The regulations about Infant formula and Followon
formula. banning the term of “humanized milk” and remarking
the preferente for breast feeding, which could only be
substituted by sanitary professionals. This regulation deals with
the appropiate chemical composition of these products, qualitative
and quantitative. It includes standards for correct labeling,
which should contain the approiate information without idealizing
the product. Drawings and pictures showing the correct
preparation are allowed. lt provides for distribution and sales. as
well as for correct advertising, which should be under control.
This regulation also bans free samples and any other donation to
particular customers oí sanitary institutions.
Conclusions: The present regulation on “lnfant and Follow-
on formulas” pursues the adequate nutrition of breast-feeding
and short age children, beinf the protection of chis kind of
customers everyone’s responsability
Long-range regulatory interactions at the 4q25 atrial fibrillation risk locus involve PITX2c and ENPEP
This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License.-- et al.[Background]: Recent genome-wide association studies have uncovered genomic loci that underlie an increased risk for atrial fibrillation, the major cardiac arrhythmia in humans. The most significant locus is located in a gene desert at 4q25, approximately 170 kilobases upstream of PITX2, which codes for a transcription factor involved in embryonic left-right asymmetry and cardiac development. However, how this genomic region functionally and structurally relates to PITX2 and atrial fibrillation is unknown. [Results]: To characterise its function, we tested genomic fragments from 4q25 for transcriptional activity in a mouse atrial cardiomyocyte cell line and in transgenic mouse embryos, identifying a non-tissue-specific potentiator regulatory element. Chromosome conformation capture revealed that this region physically interacts with the promoter of the cardiac specific isoform of Pitx2. Surprisingly, this regulatory region also interacts with the promoter of the next neighbouring gene, Enpep, which we show to be expressed in regions of the developing mouse heart essential for cardiac electrical activity. [Conclusions]: Our data suggest that de-regulation of both PITX2 and ENPEP could contribute to an increased risk of atrial fibrillation in carriers of disease-associated variants, and show the challenges that we face in the functional analysis of genome-wide disease associations.This study was funded by the CNIC Translational Grant Programme (CNIC-08-2009 to MM and DF), the Spanish Ministerio de Economia y Competitividad (grants BFU2011-23083 to MM, BFU2013-41322-P to JLGS, BFU2012-38111 to AA, and CSD2007-00008 to JLGS and MM), the Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid (grant CELLDD-CM to MM), and the Andalusian Government (grant BIO-396 to JLGS).
