氨乙基异硫脲对大鼠离体心脏冠脉结扎后再灌期心律失常与细胞动作电位的作用

用Langendorff方法与微电极技术研究自由基清除剂氨乙基异硫脲(AET)对离体大鼠心脏冠脉结扎后再灌期心律失常与细胞动作电位的作用。AET(0.001～1mmol/L)使室颤和室速发生率明显下降,使正常窦性心律时间增加。浓度为0.01～1mmol/L的AET可使不可逆室颤发生率下降为零。冠脉阻塞再灌损伤使缺血中心区心肌动作电位波形异常,APA,RP,V_(max)各参数下降。AET(0.1mmol/L)可使异常波形动作电位显著减少。     

Neurons in the Primate Superior Colliculus are Active Before and During Arm Movements to Visual Targets

The activity of single neurons in the superior colliculus was recorded while a rhesus monkey made arm movements to visual targets located on a screen in front of him. It was found that the activity of a subpopulation of cells was clearly related to these arm movements. The neurons began to discharge either with the onset of the movement, during the movement period, or well before the onset of electromyogram (EMG) activity and movement, and could be active for the entire duration of EMG activity. While the discharge pattern of some of these'reach'neurons was not different for movements to different target positions, other cells showed graded changes in activity depending on the direction of movement. The peak discharge rate could rise to > 100 impulses/s. Some units received somatosensory input; other reach cells exhibited a visual response and/or presaccadic activity. It is likely that the primate superior colliculus is not only involved in the initiation and control of orientating movements of the eyes but also in reaching movements of the arms.     

Malignant chiasmal glioma: a rare cause of rapid visual loss

The clinical, neuroradiological, and histological findings of an adult patient suffering from malignant optic glioma is reported. Rapid visual deterioration was misdiagnosed for several months until biopsy confirmed the tumor. The patient died despite radiation therapy nine months after first symptoms. Our presentation will focus on the problems of diagnosing and establishing therapeutic procedures in this rare malignant neoplasm.     

损毁室旁核对迷走神经抑制皮层诱发的下颌运动的影响

损毁家兔单、双侧室旁核，观察迷走神经对皮层诱发的下颌运动抑制性影响的变化，发现损毁单侧室旁核不影响刺激迷走神经中枢端对皮层诱发的下颌运动的抑制作用；损毁双侧室旁核，迷走神经对皮层诱发的下颌运动的抑制作用消失。     

Pattern-reversal electroretinograms and visual evoked potentials in branch retinal vein occlusion

We recorded pattern electroretinograms and visual evoked potentials in a group of selected patients with unilateral uncomplicated branch retinal vein occlusion. To document the effects of preexisting risk factors, patients were divided into three groups: diabetes mellitus, hypertension with hyperlipidemia and no systemic disease. The transient and steady-state pattern electroretinogram and visual evoked potential amplitudes were significantly reduced and visual evoked potential peak times were delayed relative to the fellow eyes and agematched normal subjects. There was a second amplitude reduction relative to the other patient groups in both the affected and fellow eyes of the diabetes mellitus group, which was indicative of an additive effect of diabetes mellitus.Abbreviations BRVO branch retinal vein occlusion     

面肌痉挛显微血管减压术的诱发肌电图监测和评估

目的:探讨面神经诱发肌电图在显微血管减压(MVD)术中、术后对面肌痉挛治疗效果的监测和评估。方法:对26例典型面肌痉挛病人、探讨在MVD术前、术中、术后,经皮刺激痉挛侧(手术侧)面神经下颌缘支,记录诱发同侧眼轮匝肌肌电位(MD-OC反应)变化,并以正常侧作对照检查。结果:26例术前均记录到痉挛侧MD-OC反应,在术中操作不同阶段,21例均见MD-OC反应消失。术后1周～3个月随访复查21例中,12例痉挛完全消失,MD-OC反应不复存在,9例症状明显或部分减轻,但有4例再记录到MD-OC反应。另5例术中,术后均记录到MD-OC反应,症状未有改善。结论:面神经诱发肌电图运用于MVD术中监测和预后判断,可改善和提高面肌痉挛的治愈率。     

Influence of pre-target cortical potentials on saccadic reaction times

 Saccades elicited by suddenly appearing targets show a broad distribution of reaction times. This may depend on variations in the subject’s state of preparation before target onset. To test this hypothesis, we recorded scalp event-related potentials from eight human subjects to investigate whether differences in saccadic reaction times (SRTs) are related to differences in cortical slow potentials prior to target onset. Compared with trials with medium SRTs (180–230 ms), trials with fast SRTs (130–180 ms) were found to be preceded by a more negative slow potential and trials with slow SRTs (230–280 ms) were found to be preceded by a more positive slow potential. These results support the hypothesis that cortical activation prior to target appearance influences SRTs. Received: 21 June 1996 / Accepted: 15 January 1997     

Effects of dauricine,quinidine,and sotalol on action potential duration of papillary muscles in vitro

目的：观察蝙蝠葛碱对豚鼠乳头状肌的动作电位是否具有使用依赖性特征，并与奎尼丁、索他洛尔作平行比较．方法：利用细胞内微电极技术记录豚鼠乳头状肌跨膜动作电位．结果：蝙蝠葛碱２０μｍｏｌ·Ｌ－１能明显延长乳头状肌跨膜动作电位时程，在刺激周长为２００，３００，４００，６００，８００，１０００，２０００ｍｓ时，其延长动作电位时程的百分率分别为２２±８，１１±６，９±５，７±５，６±３，４３±２８，４５±２８，蝙蝠葛碱延长动作电位时程作用于刺激周期较短时作用明显，呈使用依赖性特征．而奎尼丁１μｍｏｌ·Ｌ－１和索他洛尔１０μｍｏｌ·Ｌ－１延长动作电位时程作用随刺激周期延长而增强，呈现逆向使用依赖性特征．结论：蝙蝠葛碱使用依赖性延长豚鼠乳头状肌动作电位时程．     

实验性胸部挤压伤的脑诱发电位研究

本文探索胸部挤压伤后的体感诱发电位(SEPs)和脑干听觉诱发电位(BAEPs)改变。实验以16只健康杂种犬为对象,通过制成挤压伤模型,在各时间点记录上述两种诱发电位。结果:发现挤压伤初期BAEPsⅠ波不受影响,Ⅲ、Ⅴ波延长;后期三波均受累。三波消失揭示脑功能衰竭;SEPs早期5个波潜伏期延长,晚期均消失。将两种检测方法结合对判断伤情、估计预后更有帮助。
