Assessment of postpartum haemorrhage for placenta accreta: Is measurement of myometrium thickness and dark intraplacental bands using MRI helpful?

Background: This study aimed to investigate the predictive values of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) myometrial thickness grading and dark intraplacental band (DIB) volumetry for blood loss in patients with placenta accreta spectrum (PAS).

Methods: Images and clinical data were acquired from patients who underwent placenta MRI examinations and were diagnosed with PAS from March 2015 to January 2021. Two radiologists jointly diagnosed, processed, and analysed the MR images of each patient.

Imaging and Clinicopathological Features of Acinar Cell Carcinoma.

Background: Acinar cell carcinoma (ACC) is a rare pancreatic epithelial malignancy that poses a significant threat. However, there are few related clinical studies. The present study aimed to analyze the imaging and pathological features of ACC to provide a reference for better diagnosis and treatment planning.

Hilar cholangiocarcinoma: Value of high-resolution enhanced magnetic resonance imaging for preoperative evaluation.

Objectives: The objective is to assess the accuracy of high-resolution (HR) enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images in the preoperative evaluation of biliary and vascular invasion in hilar cholangiocarcinomas.

Methods: This retrospective study included 36 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma who underwent enhanced HR-MRI with an effective section thickness of 1.2 mm at 3.

Assessment of the massive hemorrhage in placenta accreta spectrum with magnetic resonance imaging.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether MRI features are able to predict massive hemorrhage of patients with placenta accreta spectrum (PAS). A total of 40 patients with suspected PAS after ultrasound examination were subjected to MRI. Of these, 29 patients were confirmed as having PAS.

The role of -elements in the evolution of crassulacean acid metabolism photosynthesis.

Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) photosynthesis is an innovation of carbon concentrating mechanism that is characterized by nocturnal CO fixation. Recent progresses in genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics of CAM species yielded new knowledge and abundant genomic resources. In this review, we will discuss the pattern of -elements in stomata movement-related genes and CAM CO fixation genes, and analyze the expression dynamic of CAM related genes in green leaf tissues.

Publisher Correction: Allele-defined genome of the autopolyploid sugarcane Saccharum spontaneum L.

In the version of this article originally published, the accession codes listed in the data availability section were incorrect and the section was incomplete. The text for this section should have read "The genome assembly and gene annotation have been deposited in the NCBI database under accession number QVOL00000000, BioProject number PRJNA483885 and BioSample number SAMN09753102.

Allele-defined genome of the autopolyploid sugarcane Saccharum spontaneum L.

Modern sugarcanes are polyploid interspecific hybrids, combining high sugar content from Saccharum officinarum with hardiness, disease resistance and ratooning of Saccharum spontaneum. Sequencing of a haploid S. spontaneum, AP85-441, facilitated the assembly of 32 pseudo-chromosomes comprising 8 homologous groups of 4 members each, bearing 35,525 genes with alleles defined.

Can magnetic resonance spectroscopy differentiate endometrial cancer?

Objectives: To investigate whether the choline-containing compounds (Cho) obtained from three-dimensional (1)H magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy can differentiate endometrial cancer (ECa) from benign lesions in endometria or in submucosa (BLs-ESm) and is associated with the aggressiveness of ECa.

Methods: Fifty-seven patients (ECa, 38; BLs-ESm, 19) underwent preoperative multi-voxel MR spectroscopy at 3.0 T.
