I found a precision and recall report table like as below

Precision Recall

.470±.009 .934±.013

.239±.010 .610±.013

I need the guidelines for ±.009 and ±.013 etc. What ± means and how to calculate it? Guide me for my situation. Thanks in advance.

In the paper, Page 4, it says:

...The detected cysts were then classified with texture descriptors based on Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) and Gabor filters and by using classifiers such as Naive-Bayes (NB), Support Vector Machine (SVM) or Random Forest (RF) with 10-fold cross validation. The comparative evaluation in [21] indicates that GLCM + SVM and Gabor + SVM have segmentation accuracies of 0.8293 and 0.8244, respectively...

They do not specifically talk about it anywhere else in the paper, but the precision/recall mean/std values in the table you've shown were most probably calculated via these validation folds, i.e. an array of 10 precision values, and mean/std of them for example.
