Objective To address the neural basis of Chinese idioms processing with different kinds of stimuli using an event-related fMRI design.Methods Sixteen native Chinese speakers were asked to perform a semantic decision task during fMRI scanning.Three kinds of stimuli were used: Real idioms (Real-idiom condition);Literally plausible phrases (Pseudo-idiom condition,the last character of a real idiom was replaced by a character with similar meaning);Literally implausible strings (Non-idiom condition,the last character of a real idiom was replaced by a character with unrelated meaning).Reaction time and correct rate were recorded at the same time.Results The error rate was 2.6%,5.2% and 0.9% (F = 3.51,P0.05 )for real idioms,pseudo-idioms and wrong idioms, respectively.Similar neural network was activated in all of the three conditions.However,the right hippocampus was only activated in the real idiom condition,and significant activations were found in anterior portion of left inferior frontal gyrus (BA47)in real-and pseudo-idiom conditions,but not in non-idiom condition.Conclusion The right hippocampus plays a specific role in the particular wording of the Chinese idioms.And the left anterior inferior frontal gyms (BA47)may be engaged in the semantic processing of Chinese idioms.The results support the notion that there were specific neural bases for Chinese idioms processing.

Objective To determine if Shenfu injectio(SFI)has any analeptic action in patients emerging from general anesthesia.Methods Eighty-six ASAⅠorⅡadult patients undergoing elective abdominal surgery under general anesthesia were randomly divided into 2 groups(n=43 each):SFI group and control group.The patients were premedicated with intramuscular phenobarbital 0.1g and atropine 0.5mg.Anesthesia was induced with propofol 2 mg?kg~(-1),fentanyl 4-5?g?kg~(-1) and vecuronium 0.1 mg?kg~(-1) and maintained with propofol infusion(2-4 mg?kg~(-1)?h~(-1)),0.5%-1.0% isoflurane inhalation and intermittent i.v.boluses of fentanyl and vecuronium.The patients were intubated and mechanically ventilated.The propofol infusion and isoflurane inhalation were stopped during skin closure.The patients were still unconscious and on mechanical ventilation at the end of surgery and transferred to PACU with a tube in trachea.As soon as the patients reached the PACU,SFI 1 ml?kg~(-1) in Ringer's solution 100 ml was infused over 10 min.In control group the patients received Ringer's solution 100 ml without SFI.The following times were recorded:(1)the time when the patients opened their eyes on command;(2)the time when mechanical ventilation was stopped;(3)the time when oxygen inhalation was stopped;(4)the extubation time;(5)the time of staying in PACU.Venous blood samples were taken before(T_0) and 5,15 and 45 min(T_(1,2,3))after SFI infusion for determination of plasma?-endorphin concentration.Results The awakening time,the mechanical ventilation time,oxygen inhalation time,extubation time and duration of PACU stay were significantly shorter in SFI group than in control group.There were no significant differences in MAP and HR after SFI between the two groups.The plasma?-endorphin concentration was significantly higher in group SFI than in control group.Conclusion Shenfu injectio can make patients emerging from general anesthesia faster.

To study the application characteristics of copovidone (PVP-S630) in Xinyueshu extracts during the spray drying process, and its effect on such pharmaceutical properties as micromeritics and drug release behavior. PVP-S630 was added into Xinyueshu extracts to study on the spray drying, the effect of different dosages of PVP-S630 against the wall sticking effect of the spray drying, as well as the power property of Xinyueshu spray drying power and the dissolution in vitro behavior of the effective component of hyperoside. The results showed that PVP-S630 revealed a significant anti-wall sticking effect, with no notable change in the grain size of the spray drying power, increase in the fluidity, improvement in the moisture absorption and remarkable rise in the dissolution in vitro behavior of hyperoside. It was worth further studying the application of PVP-S630 in spray drying power of traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective To determine the effects of different doses of cisatracurium on motor e-voked potential of neurosurgery operation.Methods Sixty patients,36 males and 24 females,aged 18 to 65 years,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,scheduled for spinal surgery with motor evoked potential monitoring,were included and randomly assigned to three groups.A single dose of cisatra-curium besilate for injection was given by intravenous injection in 5 s after the induction of general an-esthesia,respectively 0.1 mg/kg (group A),0.1 5 mg/kg (group B)and 0.2 mg/kg (group C).Cas-cade Elite 32 channel monitor was used to monitor MEPs,the electrode was stimulated for once two minutes after given the muscle relaxant,and the leading time of the wave of MEPs was recorded. Cooper’s score was used to evaluate the intubation conditions.Results The appearance time of the wave of motor evoked potentials was significantly longer in group C [(39.60±1.79)min]than that in groups A [(20.10 ± 1.89 )min]and B [(20.50 ± 1.93 )min](P < 0.05 ).The intubation conditions was significantly better in group B (100%)and C (100%)than that in group A (65%)(P<0.05).Conclusion The shortest time to elicit waveform of MEPs using the dose of cisatracurium is 0.1 5 mg/kg at induction of general anesthesia,which is better for tracheal intubation.The dose 0.1 5 mg/kg of cisatracurim is recommended as the initial dose on neurosurgery operation with motor e-voked potential monitoring.
