Cochrane Database Syst Rev

July 2006

First University Hospital, Department of Neurology, West China University of Medical Sciences, Chengdu 610041, Sichuan, China.

Background: Non-antiepileptic drugs have been used in trigeminal neuralgia management since the 1970s.

Objectives: The objective was to review systematically the efficacy of non-antiepileptic drugs for trigeminal neuralgia.

Search Strategy: We searched the Cochrane Neuromuscular Disease Group Register, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and LILACS (all to August 2005) and the Chinese Biomedical Retrieval System, the database of the Chinese Cochrane Center (The Cochrane Library, Issue 1 2005), conference paper databases and checked bibliographies.

Allele frequencies for 15 STR loci found in PowerPlex 16 System kit were determined in a sample of 200 unrelated individuals living in Sichuan area in west China. The values of observed heterozygosity (Ho), power of discrimination (PD), probability of paternity exclusion (PE) and polymorphism information content (PIC) were calculated. All loci were in accordance with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (p<0.

Tissue solubility of four volatile anesthetics in fresh and frozen tissue specimens from swine.

Am J Vet Res

January 2002

Department of Anesthesiology, First University Hospital, West China University of Medical Sciences, Chengdu, Sichuan, 610041, People's Republic of China.

Objective: To determine tissue solubilities of desflurane, sevoflurane, enflurane, and halothane in swine and to evaluate the effects of freezing specimens on tissue solubility,

Sample Population: Arterial blood samples and specimens of brain, heart, liver, kidney, muscle, and subcutaneous fat from 5 healthy female adult Chinese Meishan pigs.

Procedure: Each tissue specimen was divided into 2 parts. One part was used to measure tissue-gas partition coefficients immediately after collection.

We examined the ability of partially synthesized new compounds from fangchinoline and tetrandrine to reverse P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-dependent multidrug resistance (MDR) in vitro and in vivo. All compound enhanced the in vitro cyctotoxic effect of vinblastin (VBL) at 0.1 microM as potent as 10 microM verapamil against the resistant cell line P388/ADR.
