Morphometric analysis of nuclear area and shape in epithelial cells from cytological specimens from 35 patients with normal endometrium and from 20 patients with moderately or well differentiated endometrial adenocarcinoma was performed. The mean nuclear area in malignant cells was significantly higher than in normal epithelial cells. The range of the mean values from the normal cases, however,...

Focal cortical dysplasias type II (FCD II) are highly epileptogenic lesions frequently causing pharmacoresistant epilepsy. Detection of these lesions on MRI is still challenging as FCDs may be very subtle in appearance and might escape conventional visual analysis. Morphometric MRI analysis is a voxel-based post-processing method based on algorithms of the statistical parametric mapping softwar...

Characterization of Indian livestock breeds has mostly been limited to single breed/population focused on either physical description of traditionally recognized breeds/populations or to their genetic description. Usually, morphological and genetic characterization has taken place in isolation. A parallel morphological characterization of genetically identified breeds or genetic characterizatio...

In this study, we present a semi-automatic procedure using Neural Networks— Self Organizing Map—and Shuttle Radar Topography Mission DEMs to characterize morphometric features of the landscape in the Man and Biosphere Reserve “Eastern Carpathians”. We investigate specially the effect of two resolutions, SIR-C with 3 arc seconds and X-SAR with 1 arc second for morphometric feature identification...

in this study, by examining the character of the morphometric and meristic in which cyprinion macrostomus samples obtained from different locality in tigris, morphometric character which are transformed subject to discriminant analysis and depending on grouping model to number of discriminant functions and according to importance of these totally variance, morphogical variance among populations...

OBJECTIVES We investigated the effects of treadmill training (10 weeks) on hindlimb motor function and nerve morphometric parameters in diabetic rats submitted to sciatic nerve crush. MATERIALS AND METHOD Wistar rats (n = 64) were divided into the following groups: non-diabetic; trained non-diabetic; non-diabetic with sciatic nerve crush; trained non-diabetic with sciatic nerve crush; diabeti...

the black-striped pipefish, syngnathus abaster, is a species of the syngnathidae family. this study provides data on the morphometric, meristic and genetic structuring of the caspian sea pipefish, syngnathus abaster. eight morphometric characteristics based on total length and five morphometric characteristics based on standard length were analyzed. a total of 50 specimens were collected in bra...

The changes occurring in hepatocytes of F-344 male rats during a 3-wk treatment with a hypolipidemic agent, 1-methyl-4-piperidyl-bis [p-chlorophenoxy]acetate (SaH 42-348), have been evaluated by morphometric and biochemical methods. The twofold increase in liver weight resulted from a significant increase in hepatocyte cytoplasm as well as a moderate increase in the number of liver cells. The p...

spotted amber ladybird, hippodamia variegata (goeze, 1777) (coleoptera: coccinellidae) is an important predator of aphids and some other insect pests. since shape and size variation may affect biological characteristics of an insect, multivariate analysis of shape variations in four geographically isolated populations of h. variegata (isfahan, shahrekord, shiraz, yasuj) was performed based on e...
