Although many histopathological, clinical, and imaging findings of ESS have been described, intense calcifications have not been reported previously. Case. A 54- year- old female was admitted with vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain. Gynecologic examination revealed a huge, firm pelvic mass extending up to the epigastrium. Transabdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography demonstrated a well-demarcated uterine mass containing heterogeneous solid and cystic areas and a centric curvilinear calcification. Histopathological diagnosis was established as undifferentiated high-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma. Conclusion. Endometrial stromal sarcomas should be considered in the differential diagnosis of uterine masses containing curvilinear calcifications.展开更多

In the method, the true negative region （TNR） definitely containing no microcalcification clusters （MCCs） is screened out, thus obtaining ROIs, The strategy consists of three steps： （1） the mammogram is partitioned into a set of non-overlapping blocks with an equal size, and for each block, five statistical features are computed, （2） negative blocks are screened out by the threshold method through rough analyses, （3） the more accurate analysis is done by the cost-sensitive support vector machine to eliminate the block definitely containing no MCCs, Experimental results on real mammograms show that 81.71% of TNRs can be screened out by the proposed method.展开更多

Total numbers of the microbial population (bacteria, fungi, and actinomyces) along with urease activities in the macrophytic root zones were determined. In addition, the relationships between microbial populations and urease activities as well as the wastewater purification efficiencies of total phosphorus (TP), total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN), biochemical oxygen demand in 5 days (BOD5), and chemical oxygen demand (COD) were also analyzed. The results showed that there was a highly significant positive correlation (r = 0.9772, P ＜ 0.01) between the number of bacteria in the root zones and BOD5 removal efficiency and a significant negative correlation (r = -0.9092, P ＜ 0.05) between the number of fungi and the removal efficiency of TKN. Meanwhile, there was a significant positive correlation (r -- 0.8830, P ＜ 0.05) between urease activities in the root zones and the removal efficiency of TKN. Thus, during wastewater treatment in a constructed wetland system,microorganism and urease activities in the root zones were very important factors.展开更多
