NC449Q1承樺

Translation and explanation in Chinese?

Define the following terms: angiography, coma, CT, dichotic listening, dominant inheritance, electroencephalography, electromyography, MRI, recessive inheritance, stupor, X-linked inheritance.

Angiography

X-ray technique that involves injection of radiopaque substance for examining the structural architecture of blood vessels.

coma

State of profound unconsciousness in which the patient does not respond to respond to sensory stimuli. It is usually seen in patients with TBI and with cerebral toxicity.

CT

X-ray brain-imaging technique that provides cross-sectional images of the live brain and body in different planes.

dichotic listening

Neuropsychological testing tool that involves simultaneous presentation of auditory stimuli to both ears. It is used for evaluating cerebral dominance.

dominant inheritance

Genetic expression mode in which a dysfunctional allele possessed by on parent dominates the second allele from the other parent. Each offspring has a 50% probability of inheriting this dysfunctional gene and the disorder.

electroencephalography

Technique that records normal and abnormal electrical activity from the brain. Also used to evaluate seizure disorders.

electromyography

Visual record of muscle electrical activity during rest and spontaneous and/or voluntary movements. It is used to determine causes of muscular weakness, paralysis, and involuntary twitching.

MRI

Imaging technique that uses magnetic activity of the tissue to create clear images of the living brain and body.

recessive inheritance

Genetic mode of inheritance in which both parents transmit the same affected alleles. It results in 25% probability of this dysfunctional gene transmission from both parents and the child being affected with the condition.

stupor

Unresponsiveness from which a patient can be aroused transiently with strong and repeated stimulation.

X-linked inheritance

Genetic inheritance mode where diseases or traits are transmitted by a gene or genes on the X (sex) chromosome.

NC449Q2嘉芸

List the four major types of brain waves and their corresponding frequencies

列出四種大腦波形的主要類型和他們一致的頻率

腦波依頻率來分,大致可分為四大類:β1238赫茲)(意識)、α812赫茲)(意識與潛意識的橋樑)、θ48赫茲)(潛意識)及δ0.54赫茲)(無意識),這些意識的組合,形成了一個人的內、外在行為及學習上的表現。近代電腦科技,已可將我們的腦波透過「腦波測量機」,清清楚楚地呈現在電腦螢幕上。

NC449Q3 寬哲

List four subtypes of seizures?

1. 中央顳葉癲癇

2. 枕葉癲癇

3. 失神癲癇

抽搐性癲癇

NC449Q04 宜蒨

What is the risk probability associated with dominant inheritance

顯性的遺傳可能會有哪些風險?

答案:

若疾病是顯性遺傳,父母親之中只要有一個顯性基因,小孩之中,就有50%會得病

NC449Q5 鳳徵 Q5 is about recessive inheritance, not dominant inheritance as in Q4

What is the risk probability associated with dominant / recessive inheritance

有什麼風險與顯性遺傳有關

.顯性疾病遺傳

如與帶有相同顯性疾病因子的人結婚,有四分之三的機會生育出異常的下一代
。帶有顯性疾病因子的人與一般正常人結婚,也有二分之一的機會生育出異常的下一代。在單基因的遺傳疾病中以此類遺傳最為常見。一般為垂直遺傳(vertical tranmission )即每代皆有病。得病與性別無關,有許多的病患可能為新的突變。此異常被認為可能與父親年紀較高有關。
