Endometrial malignancies differ from other malignancies in that early symptomization is common, allowing early cure. Patients and Methods: During the study period, 100 women with post-menopausal bleeding having inclusion criteria were evaluated in Al Hussein University Hospital. For each patient full history, general, abdominal and pelvic examination was performed. Routine pre-operative investigations were done. Patients were divided into four groups: Group 1 included 29 patients with endometrial polyp. Group 2 included 34 patients with endometrial hyperplasia. Group 3 included 21 patients with atrophic endometrium. Group 4 included 16 patients with endometrial carcinoma. Results: As regards the predictive value of BMI, in the study there was a high statistical significance in comparison between the endometrial carcinoma group and all other benign groups. When discussing the predictive value of blood glucose level, in the study there was a high statistical significance in comparison between the endometrial carcinoma group and all other benign groups. It is worth to mention that the predictive value of endometrial thickness, in the study, was with high statistical significance in comparison between the endometrial carcinoma group and all other benign groups providing the highest specificity and sensitivity. At the last the predictive value of uterine artery velocimetry, in the study, was with high statistical significance in comparison between the endometrial carcinoma group and all other benign groups. Conclusion: BMI, blood glucose level, endometrial thickness and uterine artery velocimetry indices, improve the prediction of endometrial carcinoma in women with post-menopausal bleeding.展开更多

文摘根据常规观测资料、四川地面自动站资料和SWAN雷达拼图产品、四川盆地多普勒雷达PUP产品,统计分析了2010-2013年四川盆地区域性暴雨中35次个例的雷达回波形态演变特征以及线(带)状回波的列车效应特征,结果表明,在地形和850 hPa风的相互作用下,初始回波生成地点主要在盆地山区边缘附近,生成时间主要在下午到上半夜,其中16:00-19:00是回波生成的高发期;初步揭示了四川盆地线(带)状回波和块状回波的形成机制,建立了盆地西部、北部、中南部强降雨概念模型;当出现线(带)状回波或块状回波时,是发布暴雨预警信号的最佳时机,暴雨预警落区准确性高,预警时效平均可达5~8 h.
