Introduction: Salivary gland tumours are relatively uncommon, but they have a multifaceted clinical presentation and varied morphological configuration. The investigations required for these tumours remain debatable. We conducted a study to determine the accuracy of various modalities used in salivary gland tumours.
Methods: We enrolled 72 subjects, consisting of 44 females and 28 males, with a mean age of 40.93 ± 16.51 years (range: 15 to 79 years), suffering from various salivary gland tumours. The tumour distribution included 42 parotid gland tumours (58.33%), followed by 21 submandibular gland tumours (29.16%), three sublingual gland tumours (4.16%), and six minor salivary gland tumours (8.33%). These individuals were subjected to clinical examination, sonography, and fine needle aspiration cytology as per indications. The results of each modality were compared to surgical pathology to find sensitivity and accuracy.
Results: The clinical examination was found to be least sensitive (83.8%) as compared to FNAC (97.6%), and ultrasound (100%). Ultrasound had the highest diagnostic accuracy (86.2%) as compared to clinical examination (80.6%) and FNAC (82.6%).
Conclusion: Although sonography was found to have the highest sensitivity and accuracy as compared to fine needle aspiration cytology and clinical examination, the difference was subtle, as both sonography and fine needle aspiration cytology had a statistically significant correlation with histopathology.

Junto a la necesidad de explorar aquellos factores que inciden en el desempeño escolar, y más allá de los condicionantes regularmente evaluados, esta investigación analiza dos variables de contexto muy poco estudiadas y con resultados inconclusos: las condiciones de iluminación y temperatura en las escuelas. Para ese fin, y con el objetivo de medir la incidencia en competencias matemáticas, hace uso de modelos multinivel y de los resultados en el Programa Internacional para la Evaluación de Alumnos (PISA) 2012. Una vez se controla por las características de los estudiantes y las escuelas, así como por los procesos educativos, se encuentra que el puntaje promedio es 15 puntos inferior, y la probabilidad de obtener un desempeño por debajo del nivel básico es un 10% mayor, para los estudiantes en escuelas con inadecuadas condiciones físico-ambientales. Asimismo, esas condiciones reducen el efecto que tienen las prácticas docentes, el ambiente disciplinario y la jornada escolar sobre el aprendizaje.

Ante un panorama social de constante cambio e incertidumbre parece oportuno profundizar en las necesidades formativas de los universitarios durante esa etapa de su vida. El tránsito de un modelo de enseñanza centrado en el contenido a uno centrado en el alumno no ha sido suficiente. Así, el objetivo de este artículo es analizar si es actual, necesario y ajustado a la realidad reivindicar el encuentro y la relación personal como eje vertebrador de la formación en la universidad. Se utiliza una metodología de investigación de corte teórico, con un enfoque interpretativo y analítico. Se propone considerar de forma urgente la cultura del encuentro como eje central de crecimiento, generando políticas universitarias que la implementen tanto en la formación del estudiante como en la función docente y en la misión de la universidad.

From a Positive Psychology model applied to Education, the objective is to analyze emotional and motivational competencies of 82 preschool teachers, using the TMMS-24, PANAS, UWES, SHS and MBI and to establish recommendations for teacher training and student’s well-being. High levels of happiness, commitment, emotional intelligence and positive affect were found. Results ratify relationships between emotional intelligence, positive affect, engagement and personal accomplishment observed by studies in that population. Strong correlations (p> .01) were found between clarity, repair and positive affect, repair and vigor, and between vigor, dedication, absorption, and personal accomplishment. The 40.6% of the variance in teacher well-being was explained by emotional intelligence and affective competencies, with positive affect and repair competence the most important to predict happiness level. These results allow us to identify the competencies that should be included in pre-service university plans and in permanent training centers.
