Of the areas tested, 45 were found to be grade four or worse (China grades water purity on a scale of one to five, with grade five being fit only for irrigation).
The Singh Index was found to be grade VI (normal) in 87%, grade V in 9%, and grades II-IV in 4% of all subjects.
Out of 7 cases that had been judged histopathologically to be grade I, 6 cases (85.74%) were found to be grade I by Robinson's method contrasting only 14.28% cases by Mouriquand's method.
The gene for another axon guidance molecule, Slit [56], was also found to be graded-like in our results, although the genes for its receptors (Robo class receptors) were not.
The maximum grade bump for high temperature PG was found to be one grade interval even after addition of 40% RAP.
Lachman test was evaluated as negative in all patients (100 %); Pivot-shift test was found to be negative (grade 0) in 16 patients (80 %) and positive (grade 1) in 4 patients (20%%).
Overall, of 255 tumours classified as G1 endometrioid cancers on biopsy, 74 (29%) were either found to be low-grade (G1 2) tumours with deep myometrial invasion, or were reclassified as high-grade cancers (G3 or non-endometrioid histologies) on final surgical pathology.
All smears that had a score of ≥7 (BV) by Nugent's method were found to be of grade III (BV) by Hay's method.
In all but two of the reported paediatric cases including ours, MEC was found to be low grade, and these tumours were successfully resected with no recurrence on follow up [ 7, 8].
The results indicated that the ply orientation had no effect on the cutting forces, and surface roughness was found to be higher for grade 3 than for grade 2B for similar cutting parameters.
