BACKGROUND: Induced response signal is blocked by the time of stimulation, showing some individual differences by special stimulation. Extracting induced response from magnetoencephalographic (MEG) data is important for understanding the function of human brain.OBJECTIVE: To apply independent component analysis (ICA) for overlapping multi-channel MEG signals so as to put forward a simple and effective method to analyze MEG data.DESIGN: A single sample analysis.SETTING: Electronic Engineering Department and Brain Scientific Research Center, Fudan University.PARTICIPANTS: The experiment was completed at Kansai Advanced Research Center of Japanese Communications Research Laboratory(CRL) in September 2002. One m ale healthy volunteer aged 23 years was selected from Tokyo Medical University of Japan, and other testees participated voluntarily.ed to process the 148-channel MEG data, especially for the extraction of eed independent components.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Results of MEG data with ICA method.set. Most of the signal energy could be compressed in the first 30 principal components. In other words, the artifacts and evoked activations were exartifacts were detected and isolated to independent component 1, and the bursts should be detected in components 2, 3, 7 and 9. Beta bursts (13-30voked activation was obviously concentrated in component 5, which appeared a periodical waveform in response to the auditory stimulus.CONCLUSION: Interference source is separated from multi-channel MEG signals with ICA, then purified MEG data can be obtained. According to ICA, it is possible for research on cerebral nervous action to provide a new method by separating alpha wave, beta wave, eye movement artifacts and blinking. The auditory evoked response was successfully extracted from the multi-channel MEG signals using ICA.

ObjectiveTo investigate clinical features and outcomes in acute ischemic stroke patients with remote symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICHr) after intravenous thrombolysis.MethodsThe acute ischemic stroke patients with sICHr after intravenous thrombolysis therapy were enrolled retrospectively.The clinical data were collected and the related literature was analyzed and summarized.ResultsA total of 6 acute ischemic stroke patients with sICHr were enrolled, including 4 males.Three patients had a history of using antiplatelet agents, 2 with atrial fibrillation, 4 with hypertension, 3 with previous stroke history, 4 with smoking history, and 4 had sICHr at 2 h after intravenous thrombolysis.Of the 14 hemorrhagic foci (except in the infarct areas), 10 were in the cerebral cortex.Three patients died within 1 week, and 1 was in a persistent vegetative state.Conclusions SICHr after intravenous thrombolysis in patients with acute ischemic stroke is mainly located in the cerebral cortex.The outcomes in acute ischemic stroke patients with SICHr after intravenous thrombolysis are poor, and the mortality is high.

Objective:To establish the fingerprint analysis method for the root of Rosa laevigata Michx from different regions by UPLC. Methods:The column was ACQUITY UPLC? Phenyl(2.1 mm × 100 mm,1.7 μm). The mobile phase consisted of methanol-water with gradient elution. The flow rate was 0. 2 ml·min-1 , the detection wavelength was 210 nm, the column temperature was 30℃, and the injection volume was 3 μl. Results:The fingerprint consisted of 15 common peaks. The range of similarity for twelve bat-ches of the root of R. laevigata Michx was 0. 489-0. 942. And the reference fingerprint of the root of R. laevigata Michx was estab-lished by UPLC. Conclusion:The fingerprint method is simple and reproducible, which can provide basis for the quality control and the medicinal resources exploration.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of high-mobility group box 1 protein(HMGB1) -mediated inflammatory pathway HMGB1-Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) /nuclear transcription factor κ B(NF-κ B)on liver injury of rats induced by Tripterygium wilfordii,and to provide reference for clarify the mechanism of liver injury induced by T.wilfordii. METHODS:Totally 24 SD rats were randomly divided into blank group(normal saline,i. g. ),T. wilfordii group(16 g/kg by crude drug,i. g. )and neutralizer group(16 g/kg T. wilfordii crude drug i. g. after i. p injection of 100 mg/kg Ammonium glycyrrhizinate solution 3 h),with 8 rats in each group. All rats were treated for consecutive 3 weeks. The serum levels of AST and ALT in rats were detected every week. After the end of medication,the serum levels of HMGB1,IL-1β,IL-2 and TNF-α were detected by ELISA method;the protein expression of HMGB1,NF-κB p65 and TLR4 in liver tissue of rats were detected by Western blot assay. The pathological changes of liver tissue in rats were measured with HE staining method. RESULTS:After 3 weeks of treatment,the serum levels of AST, ALT,HMGB1,IL-1β,IL-2 and TNF-α in rats,the protein expression of HMGB1,NF-κB p65 and TLR4 in liver tissue of rats in T. wilfordii group were significantly higher than blank group and neutralizer group(P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Hepatocyte edema was found around the central vein of the liver,and circular vacuoles were seen in some hepatic cytoplasm in T. wilfordii group;only varying size of vacuoles were found in a small number of cells in neutralizer group. CONCLUSIONS:T. wilfordii induced liver injury may be associated with the activation of HMGB1-TLR4/NF-κB inflammation pathway.

Objective:
To understand prevalence, control of hypertension and intake of sodium and potassium among residents aged 50-69 years old in Zhejiang Province.
Methods:
A multi-stage random cluster sampling method was used to select 3 032 residents aged 50-69 years old in Zhejiang Province. The demographic characteristics, prevalence and control of hypertension were collected through a questionnaire survey, and physical measurement was also performed. The stratified random sampling method was used to detect the level of sodium and potassium in the 24 h urine of 676 subjects. The total amount of 24 h urinary sodium ≥102.55 mmol and the ratio of 24 h urinary sodium and potassium content ≥2 were defined as excessive.
Results:
The prevalence of hypertension (95
