Epidermoid cyst in the floor of the mouth of a 3-year-old

Epidermoid cysts are a rare entity in the oral cavity and are even less frequent in the floor of the mouth, representing less than 0.01% of all the cases. We present the case of a 3-year-old girl with a growth in the floor of the mouth with 2 months of evolution and without changes since it was discovered by her parents. The lesion was asymptomatic; it did not cause dysphagia, dyspnea, or any other alteration. A CT scan with contrast was done which revealed the location and exact size of the lesion, allowing an intraoral approach for its excision. The histological examination confirmed the clinical speculation of an epidermoid cyst

A MCDM methodology to determine the most critical variables in the pressure drop and heat transfer in minichannels

This paper proposes a methodology aiming at determining the most influent working variables and geometrical parameters over the pressure drop and heat transfer during the condensation process of several refrigerant gases using heat exchangers with pipes mini channels technology. A multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) methodology was used; this MCDM includes a mathematical method called SIMUS (Sequential Interactive Modelling for Urban Systems) that was applied to the results of 2543 tests obtained by using a designed refrigeration rig in which five different refrigerants (R32, R134a, R290, R410A and R1234yf) and two different tube geometries were tested. This methodology allows us to reduce the computational cost compared to the use of neural networks or other model development systems. This research shows six variables out of 39 that better define simultaneously the minimum pressure drop, as well as the maximum heat transfer, saturation pressure fluid entering the condenser being the most important one. Another aim of this research was to highlight a new methodology based on operation research for their application to improve the heat transfer energy efficiency and reduce the CO2 footprint derived of the use of heat exchangers with minichannels.Eloy Hontoria is grateful to Project RTI2018-099139-B-C21 financed by FEDER/ Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación-Agencia Estatal de Investigación

Modelling and real-data validation of a logistic centre using TRNSYS®: Influences of the envelope, infiltrations and stored goods

In this paper, the authors aim to support users when modelling scenarios with complex processes entailing thermal loads and infiltrations. The large building analysed is a logistics centre for the replenishment and distribution of perishable foodstuffs where cold chains must be maintained. The logistics centre, with 96 loading/unloading docks, handles large turnovers of different goods. This produces heat inside the facility. Due to continuous loading/unloading, the infiltrations in the building, and the fixed and variable thermal loads, this facility consumes a large amount of energy. Aiming to optimise the centre and contribute to sustainable development goal SDG7, this building has been modelled with a classical non-D envelope using TRNBuild® and also with the more sophisticated 3D software, SketchUp®, to compare and validate their results over a year with real consumption, as well as to assess the main sources of energy consumption. To obtain reliable results, the authors provide some methodology models to identify the sources of the building's thermal losses and quantify the different sources of consumption. These models are useful tools to support decision-makers (to improve insulation and arrange loads, among other things) when trying to reduce energy use in large buildings with intense operating processes. The results indicate that by modelling the entire facility with 3D software, the model estimation differs from real consumption by around 7.22%, while using a non-D model increases the difference to 26%. Additionally, the results show that around 47% of the energy consumption in the building is due to air infiltrations during loading/unloading, 18% is due to perishable products, and around 30% is due to building insulation. The methodology and models presented here, including the possibility of modifying the thermal load profiles, have demonstrated their capacity to reduce and optimise the load demand of refrigeration for warehouses if reliable data records are available.This research was funded by RTI2018-099139-B-C21 from Ministry of Science and Innovation - National Research Agency (MCIN/AEI) 10.13039/501100011033 and by ‘‘ERDF A way of making Europe” of the ‘‘European Union”

The article describes an innovative experience in college teaching, with interactive educational presentations on key areas of socio-educational intervention of the educator and social worker. 115 first year students coming from two different degrees from the Social Sciences Faculty took part in the research during the academic year 2010-2011. Its objectives include: promoting active and independent role of students in the process of constructing knowledge, facilitate multimodal learning and develop interactive multimedia presentations on the advantages and disadvantages of ICT in educational areas, with social software applications. The research has confirmed that such methodological strategies can promote metacognitive categorization of relevant concepts, as well as facilitate the socio-cognitive scaffolding and digital creative thinking of students.peerReviewe

Academic Resilience to Difficulties in Learning Mathematics

Este trabajo parte de una revisión conceptual e investigadora acerca del concepto de resiliencia académica en general, para centrarse en el estudio de la resiliencia ante las dificultades en el aprendizaje de las matemáticas mediante un análisis comparativo y sumativo de los datos extraídos de los dos principales estudios transnacionales sobre rendimiento matemático, como son TIMSS y PISA. Se utiliza información procedente de estos estudios, relacionada con los factores y mecanismos de protección y desarrollo de la resiliencia académica para postular unas líneas de investigación hacia un nuevo modelo educativo donde la educación emocional ocupe un rol modulador de los aspectos cognitivos y procedimentales que favorezca la predisposición y actitudes positivas hacia el aprendizaje de las matemáticas en la vía del desarrollo de la capacidad resiliente de perseverancia y superación de las dificultades en el aprendizaje de las matemáticas.This paper is focused on studying resilient students. It begins with a conceptual review and research on the concept of academic resilience in general, to focus on the study of resilience to the difficulties in learning mathematics and summative through a comparative analysis of the data from the two major national studies on performance mathematician, such as TIMSS and PISA. Information from these studies, related to the factors and mechanisms of protection and development of academic resilience to apply research lines towards a new educational model where the emotional education occupies a modulatory role of cognitive and procedural aspects that favors It uses the and positive disposition towards learning mathematics in the development path of the resilient capacity of perseverance and overcoming difficulties in learning mathematics attitudes
