Objective: To investigate the distribution features of somatosensory cortical evoked potential map with augmented blocking of the sensation transmission along meridians.Method: The EEG-4400 electro-encephalogram (EEG) and ND-1 brain electrical activity mapping were adopted on 11 volunteers with remarkable sensation transmission along meridians, showing that the sensation can transmit to head and face after stimulating the points below the knee joints. Also, special observation was made on accurate location of somatosensory cortical evoked potential map in 10 people without sensation transmission.Result: Observation on 11 volunteers with remarkable transmission along the Three Foot-yang Meridians showed that they presented with concurrent high potential reactions in somatosensory cortical lower limbs and face without blocking the augmented sensation transmission along the meridians; however, when mechanical pressure was exerted to block the sensation transmission,only one reaction in the lower limbs occurred in the somatosensory cortical evoked map and the other one in the face disappeared. Conclusion: Peripheral tissue evoking is the decisive factor for transmission along the meridians.

7.A case of limbic encephalitis with positive anti-zinc finger protein 4 antibody and anti-Hu antibody
Chinese Journal of Neurology 2021;54(7):700-704
A case of limbic encephalitis with positive anti-zinc finger protein 4 (ZIC4) antibody and anti-Hu antibody was reported. A middle-aged female was admitted to hospital for two months because of memory loss and unstable walking. The main manifestations were cognitive decline, ataxia and sensory disturbance of both lower extremities. The main diagnosis was limbic encephalitis, complicated with subacute cerebellar degeneration and subacute sensory neuron disease, which was consistent with paraneoplastic nervous system syndrome. Magnetic resonance imaging showed abnormal signals in bilateral temporal lobe and hippocampus, electromyography showed sensory nerve damage, blood and cerebrospinal fluid anti-ZIC4 antibody and Hu antibody were both positive, and no tumor was found. It is speculated that there may be potential tumors and need to be followed up and monitored. This rare case is reported to attract the attention of clinicians.

This study was aimed to determine effect of Bu-Shen Kang-Shuai (BSKS) Tablet on HO-1 mRNA and its associated oxidative stress levels among atherosclerotic rabbits. A total of 56 rabbits were randomly divided into the normal group (8 rabbits) and the experimental group (48 rabbits). Normal diet was given to the normal group. Atherosclerotic rabbits models were established in the experimental group. At the eighth week, rabblits in the experi-mental group were randomly divided into the model group, BSKS Tablet group and simvastatin group. Blood samples were collected before medication, 8-, 12-, 16-week after medication from rabbits of each group. Rabbits were sacri-ficed under aseptic conditions at the last blood collection. Expressions of aortic HO-1 mRNA and PPARα mRNA were measured by Q-PCR method. The level of MMP-9 was measured by immunohistochemical assay. Serum HbCO, COX-2 activity and cGMP level were measured by ELISA assay. The results showed that after the intervention of BSKS Tablet, serum HbCO level decreasd, cGMP was obviously increased. However, there was no obvious change on the COX-2 activity. The immunohistochemical assay showed that BSKS Tablet obviously reduced MMP-9 level of rabbits. There was only small amount of aortic HO-1 mRNA expression in the normal group. However, the expres-sion of aortic HO-1 mRNA in the atherosclerosis group was increased. After intervention of BSKS Tablet, the ex-pression of HO-1 mRNA was increased with statistical significance (P < 0.05). Simvastatin had similar antioxidant effect. It was concluded that the compound preparation of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) BSKS Tablets had an important antioxidant effect in treatment of atherosclerosis. Its protective mechanism may be through the regulation of HO-1 mRNA gene expression and effects of HO-1/CO-cGMP pathway activities of related enzymes while peroxida-tion stability of atherosclerotic plaque.
