术中皮质体感诱发电位与电刺激术定位脑功能区

目的探讨脑功能区手术中利用脑皮质体感诱发电位(SEP)及直接皮质电刺激定位脑功能区的方法及意义。方法对10例脑功能区病变病人在唤醒麻醉下进行手术，利用皮质SEP及皮质直接电刺激定位感觉区、运动区及语占区，住保护脑功能区的前提下，手术切除病变。结果7例病人利用SEP及皮质电刺激确定出运动感觉区，其中4例利用SEP位相倒置确定出中央沟，3例病变位于左侧额颞叶的病人通过皮质直接电刺激确定出语言区?术后功能均较术前明显好转。结论术中SEP及直接皮质电刺激可准确、实时确定脑功能区，最大程度地保护功能，切除病变。

Multipoint linkage analysis of spinocerebellar ataxia and markers on chromosome 6

Heterogeneity among the spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) has been shown on clinical, biochemical, and genetic criteria. Among the autosomal dominant SCAs, several kindreds have shown loose linkage to the HLA loci on chromosome 6, while linkage in other kindreds has been rejected. The advent of multipoint linkage analysis allows the use of several marker loci simultaneously, thus increasing the amount of usable information. We have reanalyzed linkage data from a large kindred with SCA and provide evidence for a telomeric location of the SCA gene in this family. Knowledge of the relative gene location will ease the identification of the SCA gene by reducing the size of the chromosomal regions that must be examined.

Terminal deletion of chromosome 4p (4p16.3) shows a breakpoint between loci linked to Huntington disease

A 15-year-old boy with a terminal deletion of the short arm of chromosome 4 is described. The patient has a mild clinical phenotype that is incompatible with Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome. Careful neurological examination including CT scan did not show any signs of Huntington disease. The chromosomal breakpoint was analyzed by means of polymorphic DNA probes localized close to the tentative Huntington (HD) locus. The breakage has occurred between D4S43 and D4S90 loci and thus deletes part of the chromosomal candidate regions for the HD locus. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Perfusion imaging by a flow-sensitive alternating inversion recovery (Fair) technique: Application to functional brain imaging

Perfusion is a crucial physiological parameter for tissue function. To obtain perfusion-weighted images and consequently to measure cerebral blood flow (CBF), a newly developed flow-sensitive alternating inversion recovery (FAIR) technique was used. Dependency of FAIR signal on inversion times (TI) was examined; signal is predominantly located in large vessels at short TI, whereas it is diffused into gray matter areas at longer TI. CBF of gray matter areas in the human brain is 71 ± 15 SD ml/100 g/min (n = 6). In fMRI studies, micro- and macrovessel inflow contributions can be obtained by adjusting TIs. Signal changes in large vessel areas including the scalp were seen during finger opposition at a TI of 0.4 s; however, these were not observed at a longer TI of 1.4 s. To compare with commonly used BOLD and slice selective inversion recovery techniques, FAIR and BOLD images were acquired at the same time during unilateral finger opposition. Generally, activation sites determined by three techniques are consistent. However, activation of some areas can be detected only by FAIR, not by BOLD, suggesting that the oxygen consumption increase couples with the CBF change completely. Relative and absolute CBF changes in the contralateral motor cortex are 53 ± 17% SD (n = 9) and 27 ± 11 SD ml/100 g/min (n = 9), respectively.     

Thermoreceptive lamina I trigeminothalamic neurons project to the nucleus submedius in the cat

Summary The technique of antidromic mapping with a roving array of electrodes was used to demonstrate that lamina I trigeminothalamic cells responsive specifically to skin temperature project to the n. submedius (Sm) in the medial thalamus of the cat. This finding indicates that Sm receives thermoreceptive in addition to nociceptive information.     

Ignoring Distant Genealogic Loops Leads to False-positives in Homozygosity Mapping

Distant consanguineous loops are often unknown or ignored during homozygosity mapping analysis. This may potentially lead to an increased rate of false-positive linkage results. We show that failure to take into account the distant loops may seriously underestimate the degree of consanguinity, especially for people from genetically isolated populations; in 6 Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients the distant loops accounted for 57.7 % of inbreeding on average. Theoretical evaluation showed that ignoring distant loops, which account for 18-75% of inbreeding, inflates the frequency of false positive conclusions substantially in 2-point linkage analysis, up to several hundred times. In multipoint linkage analysis of the 6 AD patients a chromosome-wide "empirical" significance of 5% corresponded to a true false positive rate of 11.1%. We show that converting multiple loops to a hypothetical loop capturing all inbreeding may be a convenient solution to avoid false positive results. When extended genealogic data are not available a hypothetical loop may still be constructed based on genomic data.
