En este trabajo, mostramos que en el quechua ayacuchano se realiza el morfema de Número con información plural con uno de los Participantes del Acto de Habla (Hablante u Oyente) a través de la operación de Concordancia, y maximizará la satisfacción de rasgos de Persona a través de la Concordancia cíclica. No obstante, cuando deba concordar con ambos Participantes con información plural y estos pertenezcan a una posición alta en la Jerarquía de Persona, el núcleo borrará el rasgo específico de Oyente, a través de la operación de empobrecimiento de rasgos para poder concordar con ambos. Adicionalmente, explicaremos la ausencia de (1) concordancia de tercera persona objeto con el núcleo Número, pues aquel no es generado dentro de la FD; y (2) concordancia de tercera persona plural ante segunda persona singular, pues la concordancia accede a la información de Persona excepcionalmente como un caso de concordancia semántica y no sintáctica.

Las oraciones de relativo (semi)libres, que reciben la marca de caso de la posición sintáctica que ocupan, marcan también el pronombre relativo introductor según la posición del participante o variable de interpretación ligada. La sintaxis del español permite que tales oraciones sean concordantes (i. e. el caso del grupo relativo y el de la oración coinciden) o discordantes; posibilidad esta última que, sin embargo, está sujeta a no pocas restricciones. Este artículo sustenta con nuevos datos la hipótesis de que el pronombre reasuntivo puede hacer concordar dos marcas de caso discordantes y salvaguardar, con ello, la gramaticalidad o buena formación de la construcción. El análisis propuesto de este tipo de pronombre reasuntivo lo concibe como un pronombre degradado o decolorado en cierta medida, que no correfiere con ningún antecedente, sino que solo transmite una marca de caso preposicional. Asumir la degradación de estos pronombres permite prescindir de los análisis que reconocen la existencia de un antecedente implícito en estas estructuras.

Objetivo: Analizar la concordancia entre docentes de diferentes cátedras de Endodoncia de facultades de odontología de universidades de la República Argentina en la evaluación radiográfica de tratamientos endodónticos realizados ex vivo por alumnos de grado. Materiales y métodos: Se envió a 13 docentes de diferentes cátedras de Endodoncia de facultades de odontología de universidades públicas y privadas de la República Argentina un email que contenía 54 tratamientos endodónticos realizados por alumnos de grado en dientes ex vivo para su evaluación radiográfica. Para uniformar la muestra, se seleccionaron la mitad como correctos y la otra mitad incorrectos. Se solicitó a cada docente que determine cada tratamiento como correcto o incorrecto, sin ninguna rúbrica o pauta previa. Se obtuvieron 13 respuestas que fueron incluidas en una planilla Excel. La evaluación estadística fue realizada teniendo en consideración el índice de concordancia expresado por el coeficiente de kappa. Resultados: El valor registrado para el índice kappa fue 0,28, con un intervalo de confianza de (95%) 0,20 - 0,37 (p

Legal processes take into account the mental state of a person at the time of committing a crime to determine their responsibility. Having a mental disorder in Ecuador is a cause of non-imputability, although there is no catalog of these as causes of non-imputability. The objective of this research was to determine the concordance between the expert diagnosis and the diagnosis established by the Institute of Neurosciences of the Guayaquil Charity Board in people declared inimputable, interned by court order during the period 2013-2022. The methodology is quantitative, descriptive in scope and non-experimental design. The population is 142 participants. The results showed that most of the people declared inimputable are men, between 18 and 34 years old, single, from the coastal region, unemployed and with a low socioeconomic level; crimes against life and personal integrity were the most common. It was found that the concordance between the expert diagnosis and the diagnosis assigned by the Institute of Neurosciences was low, which causes problems in terms of diagnostic reliability; however, the concordance between the hospital admission diagnosis and the hospital discharge diagnosis was good.

Additive manufacturing is a tool in the development and innovation of products, so in this work an analysis is performed, by means of a statistical model called ANOVA, to identify analysis trends in applied engineering and research environments. The measurements corresponding to the parts manufactured in three printing machines were carried out to corroborate the efficiency of each equipment, dimensional analysis and, finally, efficiency in measuring instruments, using the ANOVA procedure in two factors, with computational environments. The specimen is manufactured with PLA (Polylactic Acid) in fused material deposition (FDM) equipment, with 30% filling. As part of the results of the analysis, the functionality of the printers to obtain a specimen is determined, evaluating from the point of view of statistical process control and identifying that the printers do not maintain equal conditions in the processing of test specimens.

En este estudio, pretendemos aportar nuevas pautas a la delimitación de los criterios que se emplean para la asignación de género a las voces tomadas de otras lenguas que carecen de esta categoría gramatical. Para ello, analizamos 631 contextos de prensa escrita con sustantivos ingleses incorporados recientemente al español y no adaptados ortográficamente a esta lengua. Para el análisis del género de los sustantivos empleamos el criterio sintáctico colocacional o combinatorio, basado en la concordancia del sustantivo con otras palabras del contexto, y el criterio semántico, basado en la recurrencia a la naturaleza del referente a partir de su equivalente español o de una paráfrasis definitoria del mismo. Confirmamos nuestra hipótesis de que los sustantivos ingleses con referentes animados y sexuados presentan en español el género de este y los inanimados, el de su equivalente en español o el que se infiere de su paráfrasis.

Nosso ponto de partida começa com o livro XI das Confissões, onde Santo Agostinho trata a respeito do tempo. Uma das dificuldades empreendidas por Agostinho diz respeito a precisar o conceito de tempo e, por conseguinte, equalizar as aporias emergentes dessa definição. Em relação às aporias, a primeira questiona se o tempo existe ou não, enquanto a segunda indaga se o tempo pode ser mensurado. Nesse sentido, Paul Ricoeur, na obra Tempo e Narrativa Tomo I, observou em seus estudos que a definição de tempo em Santo Agostinho possibilitaria sua elaboração da teoria da concordância para a discordância da narrativa (um estudo realizado pelo autor em relação à Poética de Aristóteles), claro, com certas modificações da colocação de tempo dada por Agostinho. Assim sendo, este artigo surge a partir da busca por compreender como o tempo pode ser entendido a partir do diálogo estabelecido entre Santo Agostinho e Paul Ricoeur.

Este artículo ofrece una aproximación al fenómeno que denominamos «hiperconcordancia»: concordancia de número entre el verbo principal y un argumento de la oración subordinada en estructuras biclausales (me gustan que los planes salgan bien). A nivel descriptivo, se centra en estructuras con verbos psicológicos con experimentante dativo y muestra que la hiperconcordancia es posible con cláusulas subordinadas finitas y nofinitas. A nivel teórico, se defiende la adopción de la «restricción de caso único» (Nevins, 2004) sobre la operación de Concordancia (Chomsky, 2000, 2001). El análisis propuesto combina esta restricción con la hipótesis de que persona y número constituyen sondas independientes (Rigau, 1991, entre otros) lo que permite dar cuenta del efecto de desbloqueo de la subordinada y de que la concordancia a distancia solamente pueda ser parcial.

Introduction: Amplitude integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) is a tool widely used for neuromonitoring in the critical neonate. In the patient with perinatal asphyxia, its interpretation is key to identifying candidates for therapeutic hypothermia, detecting subclinical seizures and providing pronostic information. Our aim was to analyze the concordance in the interpretation of aEEG among neonatologists with different levels of experience. Material and methods: Unicenter retrospective study of newborns ≥ 35 weeks with perinatal asphyxia included consecutively over a two-year period and monitored with aEEG for at least 6 h. The bedside neonatologist interpreted aEEG regarding background pattern, sleep-wake cycling, and seizures. The aEEG tracings were blindly reviewed by two neonatologists with different experience. The aEEG tracings were divided into periods of 0–3 h and 3–6 h of life, and the concordance (Cohen Kappa coefficient, k), between the two examiners and that of their consensus with the bedside neonatologist, was analyzed. Results: Seventy-five newborns were included, 5 of them were not aEEG-monitored. 132 tracings were analyzed with a very good concordance between the two examiners in the three characteristics of the aEEG. The k for the bedside neonatologist was very good for background pattern (k = 0.93), moderate (k = 0.52) for sleep-wake cycling, and weak (k = 0.32) for seizures. Conclusions: This study supports that background pattern is easily interpreted compared to sleep-wake cycling or crisis, improving when targeted training on aEEG is received. Resumen: Introducción: La electroencefalografía integrada por amplitud (aEEG) es una herramienta utilizada en la neuromonitorización del neonato crítico. En el paciente con asfixia perinatal, su interpretación es clave para identificar a los candidatos a hipotermia terapéutica, detectar crisis subclínicas y aportar información pronóstica. Nuestro objetivo fue analizar la concordancia en la interpretación del aEEG entre neonatólogos con distinto nivel de experiencia. Material y métodos: Estudio retrospectivo unicéntrico de los recién nacidos ≥ 35 semanas con asfixia perinatal incluidos consecutivamente durante un periodo de dos años y monitorizados con aEEG durante al menos 6 horas. El médico de guardia interpretó el aEEG respecto al trazado de base, los ciclos vigilia-sueño y las crisis. Los aEEG fueron revisados de forma ciega por dos neonatólogas con distinta experiencia. Se analizó la concordancia (coeficiente Kappa de Cohen, k) de los aEEG divididos en periodos de 0–3 horas y 3–6 horas de vida, entre ambas y la de su consenso con el médico de guardia. Resultados: Se incluyeron 75 neonatos, 5 de ellos no se monitorizaron. Se analizaron 132 trazados con una concordancia muy buena entre las dos examinadoras en las tres características del aEEG. El k respecto al médico de guardia fue muy bueno para el trazado de base (k = 0,93), moderado (k = 0,52) para los ciclos vigilia-sueño y débil (k = 0,32) para las crisis. Conclusiones: Este estudio apoya una mayor facilidad para interpretar adecuadamente el trazado de base frente a los ciclos vigilia-sueño o las crisis, mejorando cuando se recibe una formación dirigida en el aEEG.

Este artículo presenta una propuesta sobre cómo integrar sintácticamente el género en español. La propuesta es que la mezcla de propiedades derivativas y flexivas que exhibe el género español se debe a que los exponentes relevantes (-o y -a) materializan una secuencia de núcleos que se dividen en dos áreas diferenciadas, una referida a la clasificación de entidades (clasificadores nominales) y otra referida a la definición de rasgos phi (el género en sentido estricto). Una vez divididas estas dos áreas, es posible dar cuenta de las nueve clases de sustantivos que el español diferencia por su correlación entre género y exponente de una forma directa que no implica disolver la distinción entre los procesos de formación de palabras y los procesos que introducen las marcas gramaticales de una categoría.

La sífilis es una infección bacteriana causada por Treponema pallidum. El diagnóstico se basa en las características clínicas y en pruebas laboratoriales serológicas indirectas. El objetivo fue evaluar un prototipo de ensayo de aglutinación de látex-estreptavidina-Tp17 para detección de anticuerpos anti-T. pallidum. Se estandarizaron las condiciones óptimas de un prototipo de ensayo de aglutinación basado en la unión estreptavidina-biotina sobre soporte de látex con la proteína recombinante Tp17. Se analizó la concordancia del ensayo con otras pruebas comerciales para determinar su utilidad como alternativa en el diagnóstico de sífilis. Se lograron obtener las condiciones óptimas de preparación del reactivo y se demostró la estabilidad del mismo hasta los 90 días conservado a 4ºC. En cuanto a la concordancia entre el prototipo y otras pruebas comerciales, se analizaron 56 muestras con la prueba de VDRL y se obtuvo un índice kappa de 0,48 IC95% (0,24-0,73) indicando una fuerza de concordancia moderada. Por otro lado, 44 muestras fueron previamente evaluadas por quimioluminiscencia (CLIA), siendo el índice kappa calculado 0,81 IC95% (0,55-1) representando una fuerza de concordancia casi perfecta entre los métodos. Adicionalmente< se determinaron la sensibilidad y la especificidad teniendo como referencia a la prueba de CLIA debido a la similitud en la utilización del antígeno Tp17 en ambos métodos, brindando un resultado de 94,87% y 100% respectivamente. Estos resultados plantean obtener una evaluación de la performance orientada a una posible aplicación en la población general.

Existen en español dos construcciones cuantitativas aparentemente iguales pero con rasgos semánticos y sintácticos que revelan dos formas de cuantificación distintas: las comúnmente llamadas partitiva y pseudopartitiva, y que, atendiendo a las características morfosintácticas de cada una de ellas, preferimos denominar partitiva y de término terciario. Abordaremos su análisis de acuerdo con los principios de la Gramatica Funcional del Español. Nos centraremos en aquellos aspectos que se han señalado como rasgos diferenciales de ambas: los sustantivos que actúan como cuantificadores y sus posibilidades sintácticas, el alcance de la concordancia, el valor funcional de la preposición de, así como el tipo de sustantivo que sigue a la preposición y su capacidad para tematizarse, aspectos todos ellos que han sido objeto de consideración en diversos trabajos sobre el tema.

The pluralization of the existential haber verb is prevalent in Caracas, Venezuela. The present study provides insights into this variant on Twitter, a novel source for this research. Data consisted of 1,157 Caracas tweets published between June 2018 and June 2021. The binomial logistic regression revealed a decrease of 21.68 percentage points in pluralization rates. Tense and mood with the imperfect and the present perfect conditioned the use of plural forms while the preterit level, the affirmative clause, and the argument's frequency conditioned singular forms' use. The results support the stabilization of linguistic change and the variability of the phenomenon. Due to the imperfect and the present perfect still being the only two plural tenses, linguistic change is stabilized. Furthermore, pluralization proved a variable phenomenon the rates of which depend on the corpus style (oral vs. written) and, if written, whether it is informal or edited (or a combination). The Twitter corpus yielded lower rates than interview corpora and higher than a source comprising magazines, newspapers, and film scripts. Finally, the present study does not probably reflect Caracas' total pluralization rate due to the possibly reduced number of speakers with lower socioeconomic status who produce more plural haber forms than those with higher socioeconomic status.

Background and Objectives: The key points of a monographic vascular access (VA) consultation are an adequate preoperative assessment, as well as a correct management and optimization of waiting lists. Our main objective of present study was to evaluate the degree of exploratory-dependent concordance in outpatient clinics regarding implanted VA, between nephrology and vascular surgery., Materials and Methods: We analyzed VA created or surgically repaired between 2021 and 2022. We compared the differences in the preoperative variables between the groups in which the assessments between the two teams were coincident and non-coincident, and the primary (PP) and secondary (PS) patencies during the follow-up period (Kapplan-Meier curves and Log-rank test, and Cox regression analysis). Significant P ≤ 0.05., Results: A total of 605 VA creations or repairs were analyzed: 74 ligations (12.2%), 207 distal arterio-venous fistulaes (AVF) (34.3%), 237 proximal AVF (39.2%), 35 repairs (5.7%), 41 grafts (6.7%) and 11 others (1.9%). After an average waiting list time of 16.5 ± 11.6 days, excluding ligations, adequate 1-month maturation was observed in 87.6% of cases. A total of 158 endovascular procedures and 17 surgical repairs were performed during postoperative follow-up. Primary (PP) and secondary (PS) patencies at 6, 12 and 24 months were PP: 76.2%, 64.9%, 57.5% and PS: 86.4%, 81.2%, 74.7%, respectively. Of the total number of procedures, nephrology obtained an adequate degree of agreement in 93.6% of the cases (kappa index: 0.886). The preoperative factors associated with greater discrepancies in assessments were age (P = 0.022) and arterial diameter (P = 0.032). The subgroup of non-matched assessments between nephrology and vascular surgery (39 cases) presented a similar PP (at 2 years: 59.2% vs 41.3%, P = 0.099) but worse PS (at 2 years: 76.6% vs 55.4%, P = 0.005)., Conclusions: No significant observer-dependent differences (nephrologist vs. vascular surgeon) were observed in decision-making regarding the surgical procedure to be performed (93.6% agreement), and discordant cases presented worse secondary patency. After specific training, the nephrology coordination team can make a proper optimisation of social and health resources by reserving referrals to vascular surgery for those cases of greater complexity., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare that they have no conflicts of interest., (Copyright © 2024 Sociedad Española de Nefrología.

En los últimos años se ha visto emerger un nuevo marcador de género en español al que se identifica como género inclusivo, lo cual da lugar a sustantivos con tres formas de género –niño, niña, niñe–. El objetivo de este trabajo es alejar esta cuestión de consideraciones políticas o sociales y examinar los rasgos gramaticales internos que tiene esta nueva forma, como una vía para encuadrar cualquier debate social sobre el fenómeno, que consideramos que debe ser posterior a un análisis de sus condiciones lingüísticas internas. Los resultados muestran que, frente a algunas críticas que se han hecho, el género inclusivo no implica una ruptura con las reglas del español y debe ser considerado un fenómeno de variación que posee reglas estrictas que se interiorizan en la gramática de los hablantes.

Background: the differences in bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) results from different analyzers that use different bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) measurement technologies are not known. This study aimed to identify the degree of agreement between the BIVA results of four different BIA measurement techniques and to evaluate the degree of agreement between their estimates of fat-free mass (FFM) and fat mass (FM) and those determined by the gold-standard method of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) in a subgroup of patients without overhydration. Methods: a cross-sectional study was conducted with hemodialysis (HD) patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) aged 18 to 65 years. BIA was measured with four different techniques: spectroscopic (BIA-BIS), multifrequency (BIA-MF), single-frequency (BIA-SF), and segmental multifrequency (BIA-MS) techniques. The differences and concordance between the components of the BIA (resistance, reactance, and phase angle) of the four devices were analyzed. Patients with a normal hydration status were identified, and concordance between FM and FFM meas)urements with each impedance device and DEXA was observed only in these patients. Results: thirty patients were included. The concordance between the components of BIA ranged from good to excellent (phase angle: intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) = 0.82, 95 % confidence interval (CI): 0.77-0.93; resistance: ICC = 0.98, 95 % CI: 0.92-0.99). The overall concordance for BIVA diagnosis between the analyzers was substantial for hydration (k = 0.71, 95 % CI: 0.71-0.72) and for body tissues (k = 0.68, 95 % CI: 0.67-0.68). Bland–Altman plots showed the lowest bias between BIA-BIS and DEXA for both FM and FFM. Conclusions: the agreement among the four devices was good for diagnosis by BIVA. The BIA-BIS analyzer and DEXA had the lowest bias for both FFM and FM, although with higher limits of agreement. The lowest limits of agreement were found with the BIA-MS analyzer.

El propósito de este artículo es sistematizar las reglas de la concordancia derivada de las relaciones de coordinación en el español venezolano. Se determinaron las tendencias del fenómeno, la existencia de variantes y de preferencias pragmáticas. La fundamentación teórica está en, principalmente, los enfoques asociacionistas. Se trabajó con el corpus del español venezolano proveniente del CREA Anotado (RAE, 2021). Para el establecimiento de las estructuras, distinguimos entre una concordancia transferida desde los regentes y una concordancia establecida por masculino extendido y/o plural sintáctico. A través de esta discriminación se diferenciaron los casos que generarían errores de aquellos que crearían variantes. En todos los casos estudiados, se prefirió la concordancia total, frente a la parcial. Se encontró una variante sintáctica: en el caso de los sustantivos coordinados, el primero masculino y el segundo femenino plural, el adjetivo pospuesto concuerda con el último miembro. Se evidenció el uso de las repeticiones como recurso alternativo a la concordancia parcial anticipada.

The article analyzes the influence of semantic-pragmatic factors on subject-verb agreement in (pseudo)partitive constructions in Spanish. It examines how the conceptualization of the subject's nucleus and the speaker's focus affect verbal agreement. The cognitive-prototypical approach is used to analyze examples from student texts, and it is concluded that subject-verb agreement in these constructions reflects conflicts in the speaker's information processing. The text also analyzes agreement in (pseudo)partitive constructions within the framework of the communicative approach to emergent grammar, highlighting the importance of the speaker's intention in each particular case. Additionally, two theoretical proposals are mentioned to explain ad sensum agreement in these constructions: cognitive linguistics and the generativist perspective. The analysis is based on a corpus of texts written by high school students. Finally, the text provides a list of bibliographic references related to the study of number agreement in Spanish and English, which may be useful for researchers interested in the topic.

Introduction: The Niño Jesús Hospital procedural sedation scale (Madrid) (NJHPSS) has not been validated. Patients and methods: A prospective analytical study was conducted in 2 hospitals on patients ≥6 months undergoing invasive procedures using sedation-analgesia with propofol or midazolam and fentanyl. All were monitored using the bispectral index (BIS). Videos were made of each procedure, which were then edited and randomised. A total of 150 videos were rated by four observers using the NJHPSS, the University of Michigan sedation scale (UMSS), and the Ramsay Scale (RS). These observers were blinded to the BIS, and at the time of drug administration. To assess test-retest reliability, 50 of the initial 150 randomly selected videos were re-assessed. Results: The study included a total of 65 patients. Construct validity was demonstrated by changes in scores after administering sedatives (p

El propósito de este artículo es, básicamente, advertir sobre la forma gramatical producida dentro de la lógica de una lengua natural como el castellano, específicamente, el caso de la concordancia de haber y la FN en plural, no obstante, censurada. La gramática prescriptiva, en aras del uso de formas prestigiosas y tradicionales, a través de los siglos, ha tratado infructuosamente de imponer en el habla y escritura habitual al basarse sobre nociones de corrección que, a todas luces, no representan la gramática interna de los hablantes.

This paper explores the phenomena we dub «hyper-agreement»: number agreement between the main verb and an argument of the subordinate clause in biclausal structures (me gustan que los planes salgan bien, lit. ‘me like3pl that plans work out’). At an empirical level, it focuses on structures with dative experiencers required by a psych-verb and shows that hyper-agreement is possible with both finite and non-finite subordinate clauses. In light of these data, it is argued that Agree (Chomsky, 2000, 2001) must not violate the Single Case Constraint (Nevins, 2004). The analysis put forward combines this constraint with the hypothesis that person and number are independent Probes (Rigau, 1991, among others). This proposal accounts both for the unlocking effect on the subordinate clause and for the fact that the long-distance agreement is restricted to partial agreement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article presents a syntactic proposal about the internal structure of gender in Spanish. We argue that the mixture of derivational and inflectional properties exhibited by Spanish gender is explained by the fact that the relevant exponents (-o and -α) materialize a sequence of heads that are divided into two differentiated areas, one referring to the classification of entities (nominal classifiers) and another referring to the definition of phi features (gender proper). Once these two areas are differentiated, it is possible to account for the nine classes of nouns that Spanish differentiates by their gender and morphological marking behaviour in a direct way that does not require dissolving the distinction between word formation processes and the processes that introduce the grammatical markers of a category.

Este artigo relata os principais resultados de Ferreira (2017), dissertação que investiga construções de predicação secundária no português brasileiro (PB), como “O João leu a carta cansado” e “O João comeu a carne crua”, caracterizadas pelo fato de um mesmo argumento ser partilhado por dois predicados: o predicado da oração matriz e o adjetivo, predicado secundário depictivo (cf. HIMMELMANN; SCHULTZE-BERNDT, 2005). Há na literatura um intenso debate sobre essas construções, voltado especialmente a determinar se o depictivo e seu sujeito formam ou não um constituinte small clause (SC) e se, havendo uma SC, seu sujeito seria PRO (cf. WINKLER, 1997). Outra questão importante, mas menos explorada na literatura, refere-se ao mecanismo de concordância operante nessas sentenças. Diante desse cenário, abordaremos neste artigo: (i) argumentos apresentados em Ferreira (2017) em defesa de uma SC adjunta; (ii) a proposta minimalista de derivação dessas construções apresentada pela autora, que assume não haver PRO na SC, e sim o movimento lateral do DP (NUNES, 2004) da SC para uma posição-θ na oração matriz, sendo o núcleo da SC um Asp φ-incompleto, que estabelece com o DP uma relação de Agree (CHOMSKY, 2000, 2001). Tal proposta, entendida como uma consequência da teoria de controle como movimento (HORNSTEIN, 1999, 2001), tem a vantagem de dispensar PRO e unificar o tratamento de concordância no âmbito das predicações primária e secundária. A dupla atribuição de papel-θ ao DP partilhado pelos dois predicados também é abordada no trabalho.

Este artigo visa investigar as propriedades formais das clivadas canônicas do português brasileiro (PB). Tais sentenças são designadas para focalizar constituintes através de movimento A-barra e da presença da cópula e do complementizador para garantir ênfase ao constituinte focalizado. O principal aspecto formal das clivadas são as possibilidades de convergência do verbo ser com outros elementos da sentença em termos de concordância e tempo. O panorama padrão em PB seria a concordância da cópula com o foco e a harmonia temporal entre a mesma e o verbo temático. Por outro lado, o PB – mas não o português europeu (PE) – licencia clivadas que não apresentam tais convergências. Esse fenômeno levou alguns autores a defender que, nesse caso, a cópula está gramaticalizada como um item focalizador, já que estaria na forma invariável é. Forneceremos evidências para postularmos que não há gramaticalização envolvendo a cópula das clivadas do PB e proporemos que as clivadas canônicas possuem sempre uma cópula verbal, que projeta uma estrutura argumental IP, mesmo quando aparenta estar na forma invariável. O mesmo não é verificado nas clivadas é que, que apresentam o foco na posição inicial da sentença, que possuiriam cópula funcional.

Introduction: Objective: to analyze the validity of self-reported somatometry data through a self-reported online questionnaire. Method: the SENDO project (Follow-up of Children for Optimal Development) is a prospective, dynamic pediatric cohort. Participants are recruited when they are between 4 and 6 years old, and followed annually through an online questionnaire. In a subsample of 82 participants, we compared the anthropometric information reported in the baseline questionnaire with the direct measurements collected by the investigating staff. To do this, we calculated the intraclass correlation index (ICC) and the Bland-Altman coefficient. Results: the ICC was 0.96 (95 % confidence interval [CI]: 0.94-0.98 for weight; 0.95 (95 % CI: 0.92-0.96) for height; 0.75 (95 % CI: 0.64-0.86) for waist circumference; and 0.84 (95 % CI: 0.76-0.89) for hip circumference. In relation to the indices calculated from these measurements, we found an ICC of 0.84 (95 % CI: 0.77-0.90) for body mass index; 0.46 (95 % CI: 0.27-0.62) for waist-hip ratio; and 0.59 (95 % CI: 0.43-0.72) for waist-height index. The Bland-Altman index ranged from 3.7 % for weight to 8.5 % for body mass index. Conclusions: we found a high correlation and concordance between the data collected in the physical exam and those reported by the parents. Our results indicate that the anthropometric measures provided by parents, especially those with which they are most familiar, are valid and can be used in epidemiological research.

Se evaluó estadísticamente la validez de cuatro métodos para determinar la Velocidad de Eritrosedimentación Globular (VSG) alternos al de Westergren, el que se tomó como “gold standard”. Los métodos evaluados fueron Wintrobe (WB), Wintrobe inclinado (WI) a 45° y dos micrométodos capilares, uno vertical (MM) y otro inclinado a 45° (MMI). Se procesaron 419 muestras por los cinco métodos. Se evaluó la concordancia (C), la sensibilidad (S), especificidad (E), valor predictivo positivo (VPP) y valor predictivo negativo (VPN). Los resultados de S, E, VPP, VPN y C fueron: 93,8%, 93,6, 98,8%, 72,8% y 71% en el de WB; 86,3%, 85,7%, 97,2%, 52,4% y 54% en el de WI; 94,6%, 66,6%, 94,1%, 71,4% y 54% para MM y 91,9%, 72,4%, 94,8%, 60,8% y 55% para MMI. El índice kappa mostró una concordancia “buena” entre el método de Westergren y el método de Wintrobe y “moderada” con los métodos de WBI, MM y MMI. Los resultados del presente estudio muestran que el método de Wintrobe es confiable para su uso en el laboratorio clínico comparado con el de Westergreen.

Este artículo aborda el descubrimiento de una nueva fuente musical del Romance del Moro de Antequera, pieza de la que solo se conocía la versión incluida en la Orphénica Lyra. El autor de este libro de música, Miguel de Fuenllana, atribuyó la autoría de la pieza a Cristóbal de Morales. Recientemente, una nueva versión de la obra ha sido localizada en los códices de Huehuetenango (Guatemala) por Daniel Anarte. Para corroborar esta concordancia se han realizado análisis comparativos de las transcripciones de ambas versiones. Además se concluyen otros aspectos reseñables: tanto la segunda fuente del Moro de Antequera guatemalteca, como el resto de piezas contenidas en los Códices de Huehuetenango fueron copiadas por maestros de capilla, compositores autóctonos de las regiones noroccidentales de Guatemala. Asimismo, fueron interpretadas principalmente por músicos ministriles indígenas de la misma zona geográfica.

En el presente artículo, describiré la construcción de tipo Ella está que canta del castellano de la variedad peruana, en donde el verbo ‘estar’ selecciona una Frase Complementante (en adelante FC) para conformar una predicación compleja. Seguiré la propuesta de Cuervo (2003) sobre la conformación de estructura eventiva para analizar los componentes de dicha construcción; y la ausencia de rasgos de chequeo de Caso en FT para licenciar el hiperascenso de Frase Determinante (FD) (Martins y Nunes 2010; Fernandez-Salgueiro 2005; Fong 2019, Pesetsky y Torrego 2001, 2004, 2007). Probaré, en primer lugar, la monoclausalidad de la estructura. Luego, mostraré que esta estructura se conforma a través de una organización eventiva por complementación: un evento estativo selecciona a otro dinámico, y ambos son interpretados desde una perspectiva aspectual de iteración; y, finalmente, explicaré el ascenso del sujeto desde una cláusula inferior a través de la inespecificación de rasgo T del verbo inferior, con el consecuente “escape” de la FD a un nivel superior, y, para ello, asumiré la posibilidad de considerar Esp,C como posición argumental o mixta A/A’, dadas las propiedades de selección de ESTAR.
