Abstract
Objectives To examine the sustained effects of oropharyngeal capsaicin stimulation on the regulation of swallowing, we recorded the swallowing‐related nerve activities during continuous infusion of capsaicin solution into the oropharynx. Methods In 33 in situ perfused brainstem preparation of rats, we recorded the activities of the vagus, hypoglossal, and phrenic nerves during fictive swallowing. The interburst intervals (IBIs) of the swallowing‐related nerves during sequential pharyngeal swallowing (sPSW) elicited by electrical stimulation of the superior laryngeal nerve (SLN) during concurrent capsaicin stimulation of 10, 1, and 0.1 μM ( n = 28) were compared with those during oropharyngeal infusion of saline (control) ( n = 5). Results The IBIs during SLN‐induced sPSW were reduced at 5 min after initiation of continuous infusion of 10 and 1 μM capsaicin solution. The IBIs showed significant decreases to −25.8 ± 6.9%, −25.9 ± 5.3, −18.3 ± 3.7, and −12.0 ± 1.6 at 30 min following 1 μM capsaicin stimulation at SLN stimulus conditions at 5 Hz of 1.2 times threshold, 10 Hz of 40 μA, 5 Hz of 60 μA, and 10 Hz of 60 μA, respectively. Continuous capsaicin stimulation of 0.1 μM solution did not show significant sustained effects. Conclusion Pharmacological stimulation of capsaicin could provide time‐dependent effects on the likelihood of swallowing, particularly subserving sustained facilitation of swallowing reflex with appropriate concentration of capsaicin.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
