Highlight the relevance of topics studied for professional practice and associate approaches provided by different areas of knowledge are pointed as essential aspects for significant learning. Contextualize the study of metabolic pathways, linking the clinical use and expanding the vision with the approach of cellular and molecular biology discipline was the motivation for the development of the strategy described and evaluated here. In this work, starting from the concept of active methodology of teaching and learning was developed a methodological strategy to approach the carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. This strategy included: questioning the content through the clinical case study on diabetes mellitus and hypercholesterolemia, individual and collective study in the external space the classroom with the help of Moodle tool, classroom discussion accompanied by the teacher, preparation of seminar, evaluation of the content through individual written test and evaluation of the method. Analysis of student involvement with method indicates an average frequency of 98% in the practical class of Biochemistry discipline, effective participation in the preparation of seminars, an increase of 2 points in average of individual written evaluation. As for the fact that the cases were studied in two curricular components, the answers show that 92% of students feel more compression. Only 6% of students think  unnecessary to interdisciplinary approach. As for the different steps of the method, the answers show that 99% of students consider how relevant the initial self-study and discussions in class. However, only 50% of students appreciated the use of Moodle tool. Thus, student responses indicated the perception of the effectiveness of the method for their ability to: stimulate interest in learning, stimulate the search for answers through research and the building of learning.

The teacher ability to use instructional model is one of efforts to ease the teaching learning process. Teacher activity to use cooperative learning model with STAD type (students Achievement Division) engage students to participate actively in the classroom. Teacher acts as a facilitator to help students to achieve instructional goals in the concept of human reproductive system. Teachers need to use teaching strategies that facilitate students in following the teaching materials as well as get full information from various sources. Each teacher can manage the classroom as a solid team among students by selecting a heterogenous members of the group from different category such as low level, clever, very clever to work together and to enable them to participate actively in their group. Therefore the model of Cooperative Learning Team Achievement Division can help students and teachers to conduct an active teaching and learning process in the classroom. In the end, it is expected that a heterogenous cooperative group can result to a better learning outcomes in the concept of human reproductive system.

Los estilos de enseñanza-aprendizaje son un aspecto fundamental para garantizar el correcto aprendizaje de los alumnos. Es por ello, que los objetivos de este estudio son conocer los estilos de enseñanza-aprendizaje de los tres agentes educativos (alumnos, profesores y familiares), y analizar qué factores influyen en las puntuaciones de los distintos estilos de enseñanza-aprendizaje de estos tres agentes educativos. Para ello, la muestra está compuesta por un total de 198 estudiantes de secundaria de un centro educativo de Castellón, 23 docentes que impartían clase a estos alumnos, y 104 padres y madres de estos alumnos. Los datos fueron recopilados a través de cuestionarios. Los resultados muestran que alumnos prefieren un estilo teórico, existiendo diferencias significativas entre la preferencia de los estilos según género, gusto por la Educación Física, y notas en esta materia (p<.05). Los profesores más jóvenes se decantan por un estilo de enseñanza activo, mientras que los más mayores suelen utilizar un estilo más estructurado, no influyendo su experiencia laboral (p>.05). El 49% de familiares prefieren un estilo más reflexivo en los centros, encontrándose relación entre la tendencia hacia la innovación y qué consideran importante en el aula, con los diferentes estilos (p<.05). Por tanto, los resultados señalan la discordancia en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje entre los diferentes agentes educativos. Es por ello, que los centros educativos deberían conocer su propia la realidad con el fin de mejorar el proceso la adquisición de conocimientos y, en consecuencia, el rendimiento académico de los alumnos/as. The teaching and learning styles are a fundamental aspect to guarantee the correct learning of the students. Therefore, the objectives of this study are to understand the teaching-learning styles of the three educational agents (students, teachers and family members), and to analyse which factors influence the scores of the different teaching-learning styles of these three educational agents. To this end, the sample is composed of a total of 198 secondary school students from a high school in Castellon, 23 teachers who taught these students, and 104 parents of these students. The data were collected in all cases through questionnaires. The students preferred a theoretical style, and there were significant differences between the preference of styles according to gender, taste for Physical Education, and grades in this subject (p<.05). Younger teachers opt for an active teaching style, while older ones tend to use a more structured style, not influencing their work experience (p>.05). 49% of family members prefer a more reflexive style in the educational centers, finding a relationship between the tendency towards innovation and what they consider important in the classroom, with the different styles (p<.05). Therefore, the results point out the discordance in the teaching-learning process between the different educational agents. Therefore, the educational centers should know their own reality. All this, with the aim of improving the process of knowledge acquisition and, consequently, the academic performance of the students.

Background: Thyroid hormones influence nearly all major metabolic pathways. Their most obvious and well-known action is the increase in basal energy expenditure obtained by acting on protein, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. The lipid metabolism is more influenced by the thyroid hormone. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 100 patients with suspicion of thyroid disorders were taken as cases. One hundred patients with normal thyroid profile and no history of other chronic diseases were taken as control group. Results: The serum TC, TG and LDL levels in hypothyroid individuals (both overt and subclinical) were significantly higher than euthyroid subjects but the levels were comparable between hyperthyroid and euthyroid group. Conclusion: Dyslipidemias are associated with thyroid disorders, so biochemical screening for thyroid dysfunction in all dyslipidemic patients. Therefore, patients presenting with dyslipidemia are recommended for investigation to explore thyroid dysfunction. Keywords: Thyroid profile, Total cholesterol, Triglycerides and LDL
