The present study attempted to observe what changes the supply of highly concentrated(30％) oxygen cause to people's ability and cerebrum lateralization of verbal cognition, compared to air of normal oxygen concentration(21％). The experiment consisted of two runs, one for verbal cognition test with normal air(21％ of oxygen) and for verbal cognition test with more oxygen in the air(30％ of oxygen). Functional brain images were taken form 3T MRI using the single-shot EPI method. There were more activations observed at the occipital, parietal, temporal, and frontal lobes, but there were no changes in cerebrum lateralization with 30％ oxygen administration. The result of task performance showed the accuracy increased at 30％'s concentration of oxygen rather than 21％'s. It is concluded that the positive effect on the verbal cognitive performance level by the highly concentrated oxygen administration was due to changeless increase of left and right cerebrum activation.

Intracranial tuberculoma is very rare nowadays. It is very difficult to differentiate tuberculoma from other space-occupying lesions. CT and MRI and intensive systemic review is very useful to diagnose intracranial tuberculoma. This case of patient had several symptoms of hemiparesis, headache. And we supposed that his symptoms were due to cerebrovascular accident at entry. But he was diagnosed as tuberculoma with brain edema in cerebrum. After treating him with mannitolization, acupuncture and herb medicine, his symptoms were remarkably improved. So we report this case of tuberculoma in cerebrum.

In this paper, an automated segmentation algorithm is proposed for MR brain images using T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and PD images complementarily. The proposed segmentation algorithm is composed of 3 steps. In the first step, cerebrum images are extracted by putting a cerebrum mask upon the three input images. In the second step, outstanding clusters that represent inner tissues of the cerebrum are chosen among 3-dimensional (3D) clusters. 3D clusters are determined by intersecting densely distributed parts of 2D histogram in the 3D space formed with three optimal scale images. Optimal scale image best describes the shape of densely distributed parts of pixels in 2D histogram. In the final step, cerebrum images are segmented using FCM algorithm with it’s initial centroid value as the outstanding cluster’s centroid value. The proposed segmentation algorithm complements the defect of FCM algorithm, being influenced upon initial centroid, by calculating cluster’s centroid accurately And also can get better segmentation results from the proposed segmentation algorithm with multi spectral analysis than the results of single spectral analysis.

Objective : This study was carried out to systemically investigate the effect of Joongwan(中脘; CV12) acupuncture in cerebrum and cerebellum of indomethacin-induced gastrointestinal disease in SD-rats. Method : 1. We induced gastrointestinal disease by indomethacin oral administration in SD-rats. 2. We selected Joongwan(中脘; CV12) acupuncture point that generally have been used to treat gastrointestinal disease. 3. We categorized SD-rats into three groups as followings. (1) Normal group : The group without any management (2) Control group : The group with indomethacin-induced gastrointestinal disease (3) Treated group : The group that Joongwan(中脘; CV12) acupuncture was performed after inducing gastrointestinal disease 4. We figured out the effect of acupuncture by analyzing staining degree of NADPH-diaphorase in cerebrum and cerebellum. Results : 1. Cerebrum (1) Normal group : The degree of staining was very low. (2) Control group : NADPH-diaphorase was mainly stained in cerebral cortex and the stained region was wider than Normal group. (3) Treated group : The degree and region of staining was higher and wider than the other goups. Sometimes the intensively stained regions were observed. 2. Cerebellum In both cases of Control group and Treated group, the regions in cortex were stained mainly. But, between Control group and Treated group, there was no remarkable difference. Conclusion : In case of cerebellum, there was no remarkable result. On the other hand, in case of cerebrum, there were certain differences among three groups. Through those results, we could conclude that Joongwan(中脘; CV12) acupuncture treatment was able to affect NADPH-diaphorase expression in the cerebrum of SD-rats that have gastrointestinal disease with indomethacin-inducing.

Concentrations of heavy metals, including As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Se, Si, Sn, V and Zn in the internal organs (liver, kidney, heart, lung, spleen, cerebrum and bone) of Korean obtained from 91 forensic medical autopsy cadavers, with an age range of 12-87 years, were determined by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. From the results, positive correlation with age was observed in the following cases : Cd in liver, kidney and cerebrum; Fe in cerebrum and bone; Pb in bone; v in lung. Copper in heart, Hg in bone and Mn in kidney correlated negatively with age. A significantly positive correlation between Se and Hg was only observed in heart. Significant correlation coefficients between Se and As were observed in liver, kidney, heart spleen and bone. The correlation between Cd and Zn was significant in liver and kidney, indicating that the distribution of Cd is similar to that of Zn in the liver and kidney.

Background: Among various diseases that accompany pain, complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is one of the most frustrating for patients and physicians. Recently, many studies have shown functional and anatomical abnormalities in the brains of patients with CRPS. The calcium-related signaling pathway is important in various physiologic processes via calmodulin (CaM) and calcium-calmodulin kinase 2 (CaMK2). To investigate the cerebral mechanism of CRPS, we measured changes in CaM and CaMK2 expression in the cerebrum in CRPS animal models. Methods: The chronic post-ischemia pain model was employed for CRPS model generation. After generation of the animal models, the animals were categorized into three groups based on changes in the withdrawal threshold for the affected limb: CRPS-positive (P), CRPS-negative (N), and control (C) groups. Western blot analysis was performed to measure CaM and CaMK2 expression in the rat cerebrum. Results: Animals with a decreased withdrawal threshold (group P) showed a significant increment in cerebral CaM and CaMK2 expression (P = 0.013 and P = 0.021, respectively). However, groups N and C showed no difference in CaM and CaMK2 expression. Conclusions: The calcium-mediated cerebral process occurs after peripheral injury in CRPS, and there can be a relationship between the cerebrum and the pathogenesis of CRPS.
