“…[5][6][7][8][9][10][11] Potischman et al found that even after controlling for endogenous estrogens, BMI remained a significant risk factor for the development of endometrial cancer. 12 We hypothesized that other obesity-related factors and, in particular, insulin resistance, may contribute to an increased risk for endometrial cancer.…”

This paper presents an integrated system designed to obtain a high‐resolution image via super‐resolution image reconstruction by using an observer of a motorized head under control. An advantage of this integration is that the constructed system can algebraically and systematically calculate the registration and motion blur identification, which is quite different from the way in which the conventional methods preprocess captured images. To illustrate the effectiveness of the presented system, some experimental results are provided. © 2013 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

“…this bleedine was followed with a diaenosis of uterine cancer (Wynder, ~s c 1966). Subsequent rctearch explained the cancer-obesity link when increased levels of unbound cstrogen hormone ( produced in fatty tissue via the A to E, conversion) were mcasured (Benjamin & Deutsch, 1976;Calanog, Sall, Grodin & Southren, 1977;Hausknecht & Gusberg, 1973;Siiteri, 1975). Markedly obese women have been identified as being at five times the risk for devcloping uterine cancer than women of normal weight (Kolata, 1985a).…”

“…Calanog (3) reported that the level of androstenedione and the rate of its conversion to estrone were higher in patients with endometrial cancer than in control postmenopausal subjects. Moreover, testosterone secretion from the ovary is also significantly increased in patients with endometrial cancer (2,4).…”

“…This may have been because androgen probably reduces ovarian secretion of estrogen by a pituitary feedback mechanism in mature mice with a normal estrous cycle. In women after menopause, ovarian secretion of androgen in place of estrogen increases (8) with the increase in the rate of conversion of androstenedione to estrone (3).…”
