Objective To study the methods and significance of motor and sensory areas mapping by optical intrinsic signal imaging (IOSI) and neuromonitoring (IOM) during the operation on the lesions near the central sulcus. Methods Intraoperative neuromonitoring were firstly used to map the central sulcus and motor cortex in 5 patients with glioma undergoing surgery. Then, intrinsic optical signals imaging were used to locate the postcentral gyrus. According to the results of mapping, microsurgical operation was chosen for the resection of glioma and postoperative functional results were evaluated. Results All the patients acquired accurate location of central sulcus, motor cortex and somatosensory cortex. The enhanced MRI performed within 24 hours postsurgery showed total resection in 5 cases. The motor and somatosensory function of 5 patients returned to normal after 3-12 months. Conclusion Intraoperative location of the somatosensory area and motor area by optical intrinsic signal imaging and neuromonitoring is a reliable and safe method.

AIM: To investigate the antagonistic effect of zinc on hepatic ischemia- reperfusion (HIR) injury and the effect of zinc on the expression of adhesion molecules in rat liver to clarify the mechanisms involved. METHODS: After zinc supplementation (5 ?mol/kg bw,po) , the changes in hepatocellular morphology,ALT and AST activities in serum,MDA levels in serum,and expression of ICAM-1,VCAM-1 in liver of the animals subjected to HIR were examined. RESULTS: The results showed that HIR (30 minutes of ischemia followed by 90 minutes of reperfusion) significantly increased ALT, AST activities and MDA levels in serum. The destruction of hepatic structure was observed in HIR rats. In the mean time, the expression of adhesion molecule was enhanced.After zinc administration, ALT and AST activities in serum and MDA levels in serum were all decreased. The structure of hepatocyte was nearly normal.The further experiment showed that adhesion molecule expression was suppressed.CONCLUSION: These results indicate that zinc may protect liver against ischemia-reperfusion injury by inhibiting the production of free radicals and the expression of adhesion molecule.
