ObjectiveWe discussed the effect of TMS on the motor conduction pathway and studied the function of TMS in the motor function of patients with stroke. Methods65 patients with acute brain infarction were divided into two groups, treatment group given TMS once a day and contral group. Motor nerve center was stimulated twice or three times each day. 14 days were one period of treatment. MEP, CMCT, force and Fugl-Meyer scores were recorded on the first and the last days. Results Before treatment, there was no difference between two groups on CMCT, force and Fugl-Meyer scores. After treatment, the patients in the treatment group got much better improvement in movement ability than the patients in the control group. But there was no difference between two groups on MEP neither before nor after treatment. Conclusions TMS can help patients with stroke to regain movement ability, and improve the recovery of force and fine movement, and also reduce the CMCT distinguishably. TMS is easy to use and no evidently uncomfortable influence on patients happens.

ObjectiveTo discuss clinical significance of changes in cerebral blood flow velocities with Rasmussen encephalitis. Methods8 cases diagnosed as Rasmussen encephalitis were measured the blood flow velocities in middle cerebral artery (MCA) with transcranial Doppler in ictal and interictal seizures. ResultsIctal mean flow velocity in the ipsilateral MCA to the epileptogenic foci increased 14.02%～48.14% to interictal one, while it was -0.74%～22.63% in the contralateral MCA. ConclusionAn increased flow velocity has been found in the ipsilateral MCA to the epileptogenic foci during seizure in Rasmussen encephalitis patients.
