背景直接电刺激(DES)术中语言映射的方案通常包括触发句子中的名词和动词的各种语言任务。这样的协议不容易用于导航经颅磁刺激(NTMS)，其中通常只使用单个单词对象命名。在这里，我们介绍了围术期动词和名词测试(VAN-POP)的发展、规范和标准化，该测试更广泛地衡量语言技能。方法VAN-POP测试句子语境中的名词和动词提取。对条目进行标记，并针对几个已知影响单词检索的语言因素进行平衡。VAN-POP以英语、德语和荷兰语在nTMS和DES范例中使用的条件下进行。针对每种语言，测试了30名说话者。结果每种语言每项任务至少有50个项目被流利命名，并达到了很高的命名一致性。结论该方案适用于nTMS和DES术前、术中语言标测。
Background Protocols for intraoperative language mapping with direct electrical stimulation (DES) often include various language tasks triggering both nouns and verbs in sentences. Such protocols are not readily available for navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS), where only single word object naming is generally used. Here, we present the development, norming, and standardization of the verb and noun test for peri-operative testing (VAN-POP) that measures language skills more extensively. Methods The VAN-POP tests noun and verb retrieval in sentence context. Items are marked and balanced for several linguistic factors known to influence word retrieval. The VAN-POP was administered in English, German, and Dutch under conditions that are used for nTMS and DES paradigms. For each language, 30 speakers were tested. Results At least 50 items per task per language were named fluently and reached a high naming agreement. Conclusion The protocol proved to be suitable for pre- and intraoperative language mapping with nTMS and DES.
