Chinese Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics 1999;0(04):-
Neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors(nAChRs) are widely distributed in the central nervous system,and they participate in complex neuronal signal transduction and regulation in the brain.The high Ca~(2+) permeability of nAChRs,plays a pivotal role in shaping nAChRs-induced neuromodulatory effects.The nAChRs-mediated Ca~(2+) signals may regulate diverse neuronal activities such as the improvement of learning and memory,and are closely related to drug addiction or neuroprotection mechanism.

Purpose: To study the influence of the manual manipulations on the reversal ability of the skull space in the patients with vertigo due to proprioceptive disturbance of the neck. Methods: By motor surveyor of skull three-dimensional space, the changes in the reversal ability of the skull space before and after the treatments with manual manipulations were observed in 72 cases of the patients with vertigo due to proprioceptive disturbance of the neck. Besides, 51 cases of vertigo due to insufficient blood supply of the cervical artery and 138 normal adults were selected as the control group. Results:After the treatments with manual manipulations, the deviation degree of the skull space in the three motor axes were all obviously decreased in the proprioceptive group, more obviously in the flexing and extending direction. The deviation degree of the skull space was also decreased in the ischemic group in the flexing and extending direction. Conclusion: Manual manipulations have the instant function to improve the proprioceptive function of the neck, and the factor of the proprioceptive disturbance also exists in the clinical onset of vertigo in pattern of insufficient blood supply of the cervical artery.

Objective To scrutinize the positioning accuracy and reproducibility of the cone-beam computed tomography system in combination with the six-degree couch table (Hexapod Robot Treatment Table, HRTT). Methods The mechanical stability of the X-ray volume imaging (XVI) system was tested,in terms of the reproducibility. And the influence of the moveable parts, including the KV panel and the source arm, on the accuracy of the XVI image registration was analyzed. The accuracy between the bone and grey value registration was compared using a head-and-neck phantom. The accuracy of the HRTT for translational, rotational, and a combination of translational and rotational corrections was investigated in consecutive measurements. Results The performance of XVI system itself was stable with translational and rotational error of below 0. 4 mm and below 0. 3°, respectively. The mean position accuracy of the XVI system in combination with the HRTT summarized over all measurements was below 0. 6 mm and below 0. 4° for translational and rotational corrections, respectively. The grey value match was more accurate than the bone match. Conclusions The XVI image acquisition and registration procedure were highly reproducible.Both translational and rotational positioning errors can be corrected very precisely with the HRTT. The HRTT is therefore well suited to complement CBCT to take full advantage of position correction in six degrees of freedom for image guided radiotherapy.

Objective To investigate the dose distribution and radiation risk of Varian thoracic cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) with default parameters with reference to Monte Carlo simulation and International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) report 110.Methods EGSnrc/BEAMnrc code was used to simulate the material, thickness, and geometry of the kV CBCT source (kVS) to establish the kVS model.A benchmarked MCSIM code was applied to calculate the dose distribution in the ICRP phantom after the scan with the standard thoracic parameters (110 kV, 20 mA, and 262 mAs), and the conversion coefficient of absolute dose was obtained in a spherical phantom following the TG-61 protocol.The results of Monte Carlo simulation were validated by PDD and Profile in a water phantom and the measurement of the absolute dose in the computed tomography dose index (CTDI) phantom and Alderson phantom.The models including BEIR VⅡ were used to evaluate the radiation risks.Results With reference to the criterion of 3%/1 mm, the uncertainties of PDD and Profile were less than 2%.The difference between the measured and calculated values was<2.9% in the CTDI phantom and ≤0.05 cGy in the Alderson phantom.In the ICRP110 phantom, the doses to the left lung, right lung, left breast, right breast, heart, thyroid, trachea, cancellous bone, and cortical bone were 1.28, 1.39, 1.74, 1.80, 1.46, 0.48, 0.88, 0.85, and 1.84 cGy, respectively.The relative risks of ischemic heart disease, breast cancer, lung cancer, thyroid cancer, and tracheal cancer in a standard scan were1.001 , 1.009, 1.019, 1.000, and 1.008, respectively. Conclusions The accumulated dose and long-term risks of CBCT during image-guided thoracic radiotherapy cannot be neglected and should be effectively controlled.
