(1. Department of Biology , Hainan Normal University , HaikouCollege of Life Science , Beijing Normal University , BeijingAbstract : Using the neural tracer biotinylated dextran amine and the immunohistochemical methods , we found that
high vocal center ( HVc) in Emberiza elegans received projections from the auditory area2field (L) , nucleus interfacialis
of midneostriatum , magnocellular nucleus of the anterior neostriatum (MAN) , nucleus uvaeformis , and locus ceruleus ofpons ; HVc projected to the robust archistriatum (RA) and area X of lobus (X) . HVc shell projected to the RA cup and
received from L . As there were many neural connections among the vocal control and learning pathway , and the auditorycenter , vocal learning may depend on a feedback of listening senses. Substance P (SP) labeled neurons distributed in
HVc , RA and MAN. SP labeled fibers and terminals distributed in X , the nucleus dorsalis medialis , the nucleus hy2
poglossi , pars tracheosyringealis , the nucleus ovoidalis shell , the shell of mesencephalicus lateralis , pars dorsalis , and
the nucleus intercollicularis. SP widely distributed in vocal2auditory centers , and may involve in their activities. Key words : Emberiza elegans ; Vocal nucleus ; Auditory center ; Nervons projection ; Substance P

Does the Use of Accutane Cause Depression and Suicide in Teenagers? This research paper is aimed to discuss the use of accutane in the context of triggering depression and suicidal tendencies among teenagers. Two contradicting statements on this topic from established medical journals will be scrutinized in terms of authenticity, evidence, assumptions, missing links and any ambiguity in reason
Human rights considerations with regard to pandemic influenza The last decade has seen a number of major health scares around potential outbreaks of some form of pandemic influenza. The development of responses to HIV/ AIDS established new standards in the way people were treated, including confidentiality, informed consent to testing and so on. Older, more coercive public health
