The newly identified frontal aslant tract (FAT) that connects the posterior Broca's area to the supplementary motor area is known to be involved in speech and language functions. We successfully intraoperatively monitored FAT using cortico-cortical evoked potentials generated by single-pulse electrical cortical stimulation in a patient with oligodendroglioma.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the analgesic effect of eugenol, capsaicin and demethoxy-NE. Young adult cats, weighing 2.0 to 3.0kg, were used. Each animal was anesthetized (${\alpha}$-chloralose 60mg per kg body weight) and divided into four groups; control, eugenol, capsaicin and demethoxy-NE group. The anterior digastric muscles were exposed and a pair of electrodes was inserted to record the electromyograms. To expose the pulp, each canine teeth was prepared with a low speed bur under cooling and used for recording anterior digastric muscular EMGs evoked by noxious stimulation of dental pulp. To observe effects on jaw opening reflex, inferior alveolar nerve of both sides were exposed for drug application and wire electrodes were inserted in anterior digstric muscle for recording the EMGs. To observe effects on action potential, saphenous nerves of both sides were exposed and three tissue pools were made from surrounding tissue. The most distal pool was used for applying stimulation, the most proximal one for recording of action potential, and the other one for drug application. One side of inferior alveolar nerve and saphenous nerve were used for eugenol, capsaicin, or demethoxy-NE application, the other side of nerve for control experiments(only vehicle application). Anterior digastric muscular EMGs evoked by noxious stimulation of dental pulp were recorded before drug application, immediate after drug application, at 60 and 120 minutes, and 5 days after drug application. Action potentials were recorded before drug application, immediate after 30 minutes drug application, at 30, 60 and 120 minutes after drug had been washed out. The results were as follows; 1. Eugenol had a continuous blocking effect on the anterior digastric muscular EMGs evoked by noxious pulp stimulation and after 5 days, showed completely blocking effect. 2. After 5 days, demethoxy-NE applied to dental pulp had a considerable blocking effect on the jaw opening retlex evoked by noxious stimulation but capsaicin had no significant effect. 3. After 5 days, eugenol group showed the strongest blocking effect among the all experimental groups on the jaw opening reflex evoked by noxious stimulation of dental pulp and capsaicin group showed the weakest blocking effect. 4. Eugenol had a completely blocking effect on the action potential conductivity of peripheral nerve. Capsaicin and demethoxy-NE had the blocking effect on the action potential conductivity of ${\alpha}$-and C-nerve fibers. 5. Capsaicin, demethoxy-NE and eugenol applied to inferior alveolar nerve surppressed the jaw opening reflex evoked by noxious stimulation of dental pulp.

본 연구에서는 자극에 대한 유발전위 발현시점의 변화와 유발전위에 혼입된 무작위 잡음을 시간지연현상과 자음혼입 가법모형으로 모델링 하였다. 동기시점 불일치에 따른 평균화 처리과정의 유발전위 신호의 왜곡을 개선하기 위하여 시간지연추정을 잡음제거 위너필터에 결합한 복합적 시간지연보상-잡음개선 위너필터-앙상블평균 처리기법 (DWEA: Delay compensated Wiener filtered ensemble averaging)을 적용하였다. 제시한 방법의 성능은 임의의 시간지연과 크기의 변화를 변화시킨 백색잡음 데이터를 합성한 대리모의실험을 통하여 검증하였다. 모의실험데이터에 대하여 DWEA 방법이 위너필터링앙상블평균 방법과 기존의 앙상블평균방법보다 우수 하였다. DWEA 방법은 10% MSE 오차한계에 대하여 잡음이득 7까지 동작 가능하였다. 실험결과를 통하여 DWEA 방법은 잡음의 혼입과 동기 불일치 현상을 보이는 유발전위의 신호개선의 가능성을 제시하였다.

Backgroud : The generators of N37 and P37 of posterior tibial nerve somatosensory evoked potential(PTSEP) have not been exactly known. Recently, some reports suggested that P37 and N37 might have different generator. We conducted a study to know the generators of P37 and N37 of PTSEP using gating mechanism. Methods : We evaluated subcortical and cortical somatosensoy evoked potentials(SEPs) in response to posterior tibial nerve stimulation in 3 experimental conditions of foot movement and compared them with PTSEPs in full relaxation of foot. The experimental conditions were: (a) active flexion-extention of stimulated foot, (b) isometric contraction of the stimulated foot, (c) passive flexion-extention of the stimulate foot. We analyzed the latencies and amplitudes of following potentials; P30, N37, P37, and N50. Results : The amplitude of P30 potential did not change during at any paradigms. The amplitudes of P37 and N50 were significantly attenuated in all condition. However, the amplitude of N37 showed no significant change during at any paradigms. Conclusions : These results suggest that the generators of P37 and N37 of PTSEP be different in cortex.

본 논문은 BCI(Brain Computer Interface)기반의 정상상태시각유발전위(SSVEP : Steady-State Visual Evoked Potential)를 사용하여 무선 로봇 제어를 위한 시스템을 제안하였다. CPSD(Cross Power Spectral Density)를 사용하여 전극의 신호를 분석하였다. 또한 분류를 위해서 LDA(Linear Discriminant Analysis)와 SVM(Support Vector Machine)을 사용하였다. 그 결과 피험자들의 평균 분류율은 약 70%로 나타났다. 로봇제어의 경우 뇌파의 값을 분류하여 나타난 결과 값으로 로봇이 움직일 수 있도록 구현하였고, 블루투스 통신을 이용하여 로봇제어를 수행하였다.

A 3-month-old, intact male French bulldog was suspected of deafness. The dog was irresponsive to environmental noises generated out of sight, but normal responses were noted for visual stimuli. No abnormalities were observed on the neurological, otoscopic, radiographic, and blood examinations. To diagnose the apparent deafness, brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) was recorded in the presented dog together with a normal dog. While the BAEP from the control dog showed a normal wave consisting of 5 peaks, absence of all peaks was noted in the suspected deaf dog. Therefore the dog was definitively diagnosed as bilaterally congenital sensorineural deafness.

A clinically oriented 32 channel Electroencephalogram (EEG) and evoked potential (EP) mapping system has been developed. The EEG and EP signals acquired from 32-channel electrodes are amplified by the pre-amplifier located near patient and are then tither amplified by main amplifier. An automatic artifact rejection scheme is employed using a neural network by which examination time is reduced substantially. Auditary and visual stimuli are used for the evoked potential mapping. A user-friendly graphical interface based on the Microsoft Window 3.1 is developed for the operation of the system. Statistical databases for the poop and individual comparisons are also included to support statistically based diagnosis.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in conjunction with task oriented training, on cortical excitability and upper extremity function recovery in stroke patients. This study was conducted with 31 subjects who were diagnosed as a hemiparesis by stroke. Participants in the experimental (16 members) and control groups (15 members) received rTMS and sham rTMS, respectively, during a 10 minutes session, five days per week for four weeks, followed by task oriented training during a 30 minutes session, five days per week for four weeks. Motor cortex excitability was performed by motor evoked potential and upper limb function was evaluated by motor function test. Both groups showed a significant increment in motor function test and amplitude, latency in motor evoked potential compared to pre-intervention (p < 0.05). A significant difference in post-training gains for the motor function test, amplitude in motor evoked potential was observed between the experimental group and the control group (p < 0.05). The findings of the current study demonstrated that incorporating rTMS in task oriented training may be beneficial in improving the effects of stroke on upper extremity function recovery.
