Objective To investigate the electrophysiological characteristics of the ventralis intermedius nucleus (Vim) in order to find an easy and safe way to confirm the target in Vim-thalamotomy. Method In microelectrode-guided selective Vim-thalamotomy for 23 Parkinson's disease patients, the background activity, amplitude and discharge frequencies of Vim were compared with its surrounding structures. The response of kinesthetic neuron and tremor cell to microstimulation was also compared. Result There were differences in backgroud activity and discharge amplitude for Vim, ventralis lateralis nucleus (VL), ventralis caudalis nucleus (VC), and internal capsule. Based on the response to active or passive movement of contralateral limb tremor cells were divided into two subgroups, which were different in localization. Contralateral tremor showed different response when the two subgroups of tremor cells were mircrostimulated. Conclusion The anterior border of Vim was easily found by microrecording. Only by combining microstimulation with microrecording could the posterior border of Vim and its interior and lateral ordination of target were identified exactly and safely. Kinesthetic neurons and tremor cells which responded to the movement of contralateral limbs should be destroyed.

OBJECTIVE:To discuss clinical efficacy and safety of alteplase combined with butylphthalide to the patients with acute ischemic stroke. METHODS:98 patients with acute ischemic stroke in our hospital were selected and divided into ob-servation group and control group according to random number table,with 49 patients in each group. Control group was addition-ally given Butylphthalide and sodium chloride injection 100 ml,ivgtt,bid,on the basis of routine treatment as controlling blood glucose,blood pressure,etc.;observation group additionally received Alteplase for injection 5 mg added into NS 10 ml,iv+Al-teplase for injection 45 mg added into NS 100 ml,ivgtt,qd,on the basis of control group. Both groups were treated for 2 weeks. Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were compared as well as cerebral infarction area,NIHSS score,ability score of daily liv-ing,the levels of IL-6,IL-8,IL-10,CRP,24 h urine protein,Scr and creatinine clearance rate before and after treatment. The occurrence of ADR was also recorded. RESULTS:1 patient of observation group and 2 patients of control group withdrew from the study due to severe hemorrhage. Total effective rate of observation group(95.83%)was significantly higher than that of con-trol group(80.85%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in above in-dexes between 2 groups (P>0.05). The cerebral infarction area and NIHSS score were reduced significantly in observation group after treatment,ability score of daily living were increased significantly in observation group after treatment,and the im-provement of observation group was significantly better than control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). 24 h urine protein and Scr of observation group was significantly lower than those of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). the level of IL-6 in observation group 1 week after treatment and the levels of IL-6,IL-8,IL-10 and CRP 2 weeks after treat-ment were significantly lower than in control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Alteplase combined with butylphthalide show signifi-cant therapeutic efficacy,can effectively reduce the level of serum inflammatory factors,control brain tissue ischemia and cere-bral infarction area,and improve neurologic function and pro-tect renal function in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
