Received 29 July 2009; revised 1 October 2009; accepted 21 October 2009; published online 5 January 2010 ZNF804A variants associated with psychosis S Steinberg et al 60 A trio of genome-wide association studies recently reported sequence variants at three loci to be significantly associated with schizophrenia. No sequence polymorphism had been unequivocally (P <5Â 10À8) associated with schizophrenia earlier. However, one variant, rs1344706[T], had come very close. This polymorphism, located in an intron of ZNF804A, was reported to associate with schizophrenia with a P-value of 1.6 Â 10À7, and with psychosis (schizophrenia plus bipolar disorder) with a P-value of 1.0 Â 10À8. In this study, using 5164 schizophrenia cases and 20 709 controls, we replicated the association with schizophrenia (odds ratio OR = 1.08, P = 0.0029) and, by adding bipolar disorder patients, we also confirmed the association with psychosis (added N = 609, OR = 1.09, P = 0.00065). Furthermore, as it has been proposed that variants such as rs1344706[T]—common and with low relative risk—may also serve to identify regions harboring less common, higher-risk susceptibility alleles, we searched ZNF804A for large copy number variants (CNVs) in 4235 psychosis patients, 1173 patients with other psychiatric disorders and 39 481 controls. We identified two CNVs including at least part of ZNF804A in psychosis patients and no ZNF804A CNVs in controls (P = 0.013 for association with psychosis). In addition, we found a ZNF804A CNV in an anxiety patient (P = 0.0016 for association with the larger set of psychiatric disorders).

  • Dialect and Local Media: Reproducing the Multi- Dialectal Hierarchical Space in Limburg (The Netherlands)
    Dialect and local media: Reproducing the multi- dialectal hierarchical space in Limburg (the Netherlands) Leonie Cornips i, ii , Vincent de Rooij iii , Irene Stengs i ii and Lotte Thissen i Meertens Institute/The Royal Academy of Art and Sciences, Amsterdam; ii Maastricht University; iii University of Amsterdam The Netherlands 1 INTRODUCTION This chapter aims at contributing to an understanding of processes of language standardization by looking at a multidialectal public live performance, broadcast by local media in the Dutch province of Limburg. We will focus on this live perfor- mance, which involves a reading-aloud event of extracts from the fantasy book series Harry Potter . For this event, extracts were translated in written form into various Limburgian dialects. These translations obeyed the normative dialect or- thography acknowledged by the most important main actors in Limburg (see later). 2 The imposition of a normative spelling for dialects evidences processes of codifica- tion and implementation, two major stages in language standardization (cf. Deumert 2004, Haugen 2003, Milroy 2001). These ongoing processes in Limburg result in the standardization of multiple dialects that differ maximally from each other, espe- cially at the level of the lexicon. These processes also anchor the multiple dialects to place. Language standardization involves concern with form and function, and is based on as well as framed by ‘discursive projects’: Standardization is concerned with linguistic forms (corpus planning, i.e. selec- tion and codification) as well as the social and communicative functions of lan- guage (status planning, i.e. implementation and elaboration). In addition, stand- ard languages are also discursive projects, and standardization processes are typ- ically accompanied by the development of specific discourse practices.

  • Monitoring and the FLONET/TRANS Model As Tools to Characterize the Nitrate Distribution and Transport in the Noor Catchment (The Netherlands)
    Slovak Geol. Mag., 8, 2 (2002), 147-158 Monitoring and the FLONET/TRANS model as tools to characterize the nitrate distribution and transport in the Noor catchment (the Netherlands) JOZEF KordIk', Henny A.J. van Lanen2 and ROEL DUKSMA2 'Geological Survey of Slovak Republic, Mlynska dolina 1, 817 04 Bratislava, Slovakia 2Wageningen University, De Nieuwlanden 11, Wageningen, the Netherlands Abstract. Intensive human activities, such as agricultural practices, groundwater abstraction or land use changes, have had a negative impact on the state of the natural environment in The Netherlands. The in- creased inputs of fertilisers and animal manure after 1950 have boosted crop production to a high level, but have also contributed to increased nitrogen emissions from agriculture to groundwater, surface waters and atmosphere. Since 1991, a comprehensive hydrological and hydrogeological research project has been started in the Noor (chalk) catchment situated on the Dutch-Belgian boundary due to situation has become critical in this region. The investigation covers analysis of the hydrogeological system of the Noor catchment, including the relationship between recharge, groundwater heads, springflow, streamflow and chemical composition of water. The monitoring shows that groundwater under the plateau is heavily polluted (often N03" concentra- tions > 100 mg.l"1). Springs also have high N03" contents (mean: 64 mg.!"') because they are fed by this groundwater. Groundwater under the wet valley is less polluted (mean: 27 mg.l"1) due to denitrification and being old, unpolluted water. Water in the Noor brook and its tributaries is coming from the polluted springs and from seepage areas in the wet valley that drain the less polluted groundwater there.

To protect the ecological system for its own sake and for the benefit of humans, both biodiversity and ecosystem services need to be included in ecosystem accounting and conservation planning. (this thesis) 3. Maps and monetary values are very powerful communication tools for (mis)guiding public opinion. 4. Value is a multifaceted concept that guarantees critical discussion in interdisciplinary research. 5. A PhD thesis is authored by one person, but developed by multiple minds. 6. Nature is neither fair nor unfair, such phrases belong to humankind. (inspired by Carsten Jensen’s novel We, the Drowned, 2011, Vintage) 7.

  • Islamic Radicalization in Belgium
    ISLAMIC RADICALIZATION IN BELGIUM Ms. Sarah Teich, (Research Assistant, ICT) February 2016 ABSTRACT Belgium has become a major hotbed for radicalization in Europe. At least 380 Belgians have travelled to Syria as foreign fighters, giving Belgium the largest number of jihadists per capita at 33.9 fighters per one million residents. Radicalized Belgian Muslims are significantly involved not only in terrorist attacks in Belgium, but throughout Europe. What has caused Belgium to become this fertile a ground for Islamic radicalization? This paper points to the low levels of employment, high levels of discrimination, low educational achievement, poor integration, and inconsistent governmental funding pervasive among the Belgian Muslim community. These poor demographic realities of the Belgian Muslim community might be significant in providing a fertile ground for radical Islamic parties and organizations to influence and recruit. This paper analyzes Islamic radicalization in Belgium. The first part of this paper examines Belgian-Muslim demographics, including population, integration, political participation, and organization. Then, Belgian Islamic radicalization is examined through the theoretical frameworks of both McCauley and Moskalenko and Social Movement Theory. To conclude, this paper considers governmental responses and recommendations for future preventative actions. * The views expressed in this publication are solely those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the International Institute for Counter-Terrorism
