Our study showed that the 10-year and 15-year survival rates were 63.3% and 59.1% respectively, much higher than the results presented by other researchers. The following four points were concluded: 1. The long-term treatment result of salivary gland carcinoma is determined not only on mode of treatment and clinical stage, but more on its pathologic type. For high malignant salivary carcinoma, comprehensive multidiscipline treatments should be adopted. 2. Management of primary focus." The different operative principle and mode shouht be worked out in advance according to pathologic type and primary site of tumors. 3. Management of lymphonode: For cases with undifferentiated carcinoma, low-differentiated mucoepiderrnoid carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma and papillary cystadenocarcinoma, elective neck dissection should be performed. 4. Prevention of distant metastasis: Preoperative biopsy should be avoided. Frozen-section should be made during the operation and, diagnosis and treatment be accomplished in the meantime.展开更多

Taking help from available questionnaires and also incorporating views from the teachers of the related subjects, the relevant Likert type items were selected. The drafted version of the questionnaire was finalized taking into account feedback from the subject experts. The focus was on simple language to ensure clarity to the students to facilitate accuracy of the collected data. The developed questionnaire consists of five domains involving fifteen Likert type items including a global item. For assessment of its reliability and validity, data were collected among two groups of undergraduate students studying two courses namely Accounts (n = 190) and Law (n = 90). For assessing questionnaire, Karl Pearson Correlation Coefficient, Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient and four factor solutions under factor analysis were used. The analytical results were quite consistent across the data sets (that are, accounts, law and pooled together) that exhibit good psychometric properties. It may thus be concluded that the questionnaire is valid, reliable and may measure what it is intended to measure.展开更多
