The randomly encountered cases need to be reported to further allow our understanding of this collision tumors that are still not understood nor fully described. Patients and Method: We report a case of coexisting nonfunctioning pituitary adenoma and a left temporal lobe meningioma revealed by a 1-year history of progressive vision loss and occasional headaches in a 56-year-old woman. Her clinical condition worsened in the last 5 months with ptosis, cavernous sinus syndrome, and ophthalmoplegia of the right eye without papilledema. There was an improvement in the visual symptoms after subtotal resection of both lesions through a right frontotemporal craniotomy. Histology confirmed a collision tumor. The patient was referred for adjuvant treatment with gamma knife radiosurgery. He was doing well and back to his usual duties 6 months later. Conclusion: A gross total or subtotal resection with adjuvant therapy is the gold standard for the surgical management of collision tumors for a favorable patient outcome.展开更多

Nota...Background: There is limited information regarding adjuvant treatment for malignant meningiomas. Although external whole-brain irradiation is recommended, the patient’s family in our case rejected this modality. Notably, traditional chemotherapy was ineffective. Aim: I speculated if the exfoliation of graphene could disassemble the three-dimensional (3D) structures of the graphene because the tumor mass or the blood clots including the graphene consisted of inhomogeneous materials. Therefore, I aimed to explore another possible mechanism for the instant removal of inhomogeneous materials. Method: Herein, I report a case of anaplastic papillary meningioma. A 59- year-old man presented with partial complex seizures and recurrent headaches following craniotomy for the removal of a mass with a right frontotemporal convexity 10 years ago. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a right frontotemporal mass with diffuse contrast enhancement and extensive surrounding edema. A right frontotemporal flap was performed. The tumor and the infiltrated dura were removed, but massive intraoperative bleeding occurred and the right middle cerebral artery was clipped at the M2 territory. Postoperatively, the follow-up CT scan revealed hydrocephalus. Accordingly, a ventriculoperitoneal shunt was placed. The patient suffered from left hemiplegia as a sequela of intraoperative bleeding. Four months later, the follow-up CT scan showed chronic epidural hematoma in the right frontotemporoparietal region. The patient also had an altered level of consciousness. Results: The patient’s level of consciousness was restored after infusion of a NaCl + KCl solution with instant disappearance of the mass. Conclusion: There may be another mechanism for disassembling the inhomogeneous graphene-containing complex, such as quantum fluctuation of the graphene exfoliation with pair annihilation or relation to tissue engineering by the graphene.展开更多

WKWA takes into account representation features of web documents and advantages of the TF*IDF, TFC and ITC algorithms in order to make it more appropriate for web documents. Meanwhile, the presented algorithm is applied to improved vector space model (IVSM). A real system has been implemented for calculating semantic similarities of web documents. Four experiments have been carried out. They are keyword weight calculation, feature item selection, semantic similarity calculation, and WKWA time performance. The results demonstrate accuracy of keyword weight, and semantic similarity is improved.展开更多

The client uses the Chinese and English to achieve the synonym construction of the keywords, the establishment of the fuzzy-syllable words and synonyms set of keywords and the implementation of fuzzy search strategy over the encryption of cloud data based on keywords. The server side through the analysis of the user’s query request provides keywords for users to choose and topic words and secondary words are picked out. System will match topic words with historical inquiry in time order, and then the new query result of the request is directly gained. The analysis of the simulation experiment shows that the fuzzy search strategy can make better use of historical results on the basis of privacy protection for the realization of efficient data search, saving the search time and improving the efficiency of search.展开更多
