Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of oxcarbazepine combined with levetirac-etam on children with epilepsy. Methods According to different treatments, 62 cases of children with epilepsy were divided into the OXC group (treated with oxcarbazepine, 40 cases) and the OXC combined with LEV group (treated with oxcarbazepine and levetiracetam, 20 cases). Then the therapeutic efficacy, EEG changes and ad-verse reactions of patients in the two groups were studied. Results The total efficacy was 87.5% in the OXC group, and was 95.5% of the OXC combined with LEV group, with no significant difference. EEG improvement rate was 52.5% in the OXC group and 81.8% in the OXC combined with LEV group , with significant difference (P < 0.05). The rate of adverse reactions in the OXC combined with LEV group was lower than that in the OXC group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Both levetiracetam and oxcarbazepine has good curative effect on children with epilepsy , but combination with levetiracetam can significantly decrease the epileptic discharges on EEG , with higher security.

Objective To study the chemical constituents in Sparganium stoloniferum. Methods The compounds were isolated by repeated silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 chromatographies. The structures of isolated compounds were identified by analysis of their spectral data and chemical reactions. Results Nine compounds were isolated and their structures were identified as daucosterol palmitate (Ⅰ), ?-sitosterol palmitate (Ⅱ), 24-methylenecycloartanol (Ⅲ), 6, 7, 10-trihydroxy-8-octadecenoic acid (Ⅳ), vanillic acid (Ⅴ), p-hydroxybenzaldehyde (Ⅵ), 2,3-dihydroxypropyl palmitate (Ⅶ), 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (Ⅷ), ?-sitosterol (Ⅸ). Conclusion Compounds Ⅰ-Ⅲ and Ⅴ-Ⅷ are obtained from the plants of Sparganium L. for the first time.

In the structural determination of natural glycosides, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is an important approach in determining the configuration of glycoside bond. The test of coupling constant of the anomeric proton and chemical shift of the anomeric carbon are two common methods, but these methods are not suitable for some sugars. For those sugars, detailed 13C NMR analysis is an alternative choice. This paper summarizes the characteristics of 1H and 13C NMR data of the common monosaccharides published in the literatures, in order to search an approach to determine the configuration of glycoside bond.

Objective To study the chemical constituents from mycelium of marine fungus Aspergillus versicolor.Methods The compounds were separated by column chromatography and their structures were elucidated based on chemical and spectral analysis. Results Seven compounds have been isolated from the acetone and methanol extracts from the mycelia of Aspergillus versicolor. Their structures were determined as sterigmatocystin (I), 6-methoxysterigmatocystin (II), averufin (III), tyrosine (IV), 3-methyl-pyrrolopiperazine-2, 5-dione (V), 3-isopropyl-pyrrolopiperazine-2, 5-dione (VI), carbamide (VII). Conclusion Compounds IV,V and VI were isolated for the first time from this genus of marine fungi.

Object To study the chemical constituents from the roots of Stellera chamaejasme L. Methods Chemical constituents were isolated by chromatographic methods and identified by physiochemical and spectral analysis. Results One lignan and three biflavonoids were purified and determined as bursehernin (Ⅰ), chamaejasmenin B (Ⅱ), isoneochamaejasmin A (Ⅲ),and (+)-chamaejasmin (Ⅳ). Conclusion Compound Ⅲ and Ⅳ are determined as new optical compounds. Compound I is first isolated from Stellera L. species.

Objective To study the chemical constituents from the wing twigs of Euonymus alatus. Methods Compounds were isolated and purified repeatedly on silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, open RP-C18 column chromatographies and PTLC, and their chemical structures were elucidated by their physicochemical properties and spectral data, such as 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and EI-MS. Results Nine compounds were obtained and identified as: epifriedelinol (Ⅰ), stigmast-4-en-3-one (Ⅱ), 6?-hydroxy-stigmast-4-en-3-one (Ⅲ), ?-sitosterol (Ⅳ), methyl 2, 4-dihydroxy-3, 6-dimethyl benzoate (Ⅴ), methyl 2, 4-dihydroxy-6-methyl benzoate (Ⅵ), 7-methoxy-4-methylphthalide (Ⅶ), vanillin (Ⅷ), n-octacosanol (Ⅸ). Conclusion Compound Ⅶ is first reported as a natural product. Compounds Ⅴ-Ⅷ are reported from plants of Euonymus L. for the first time.

AIM:To observe the influence of Chuanbaiqufeng Capsule(Rhizoma Chuanxiong,Radix Paeoniae alba,Herba Schizonepetae,etc.) on the primary trigeminal neuralgia of the model rat.METHODS:Chuanbaiqufeng Capsule was taken to treat the primary trigeminal neuralgia and the pain after chronic constriction injury,and then compared with the control contrast group and the Carbamazepine group.RESULTS:Chuanbaiqufeng Capsule could raise the content of substance P and 5-HT in the rats' brain of the primary trigeminal neuralgia.But for the rat's model after chronic constriction injury,Chuanbaiqufeng Capsule could make the pain threshold risen(P

To study the secondary metabolites of a marine-derived fungus Ascotricha sp. ZJ-M-5, several chromatographic methods including macroporous resin, silica gel, ODS and Sephadex LH-20 were used to isolate the compounds, and their structures were elucidated on the basis of physicochemical properties and spectroscopic methods. Ten compounds were obtained and identified as ascotrichic acid B (1), (3R)-6-hydroxymellein (2), beta-carboline (3), (22E, 24R)-ergosta-7, 22-diene-3beta, 5alpha, 6beta-triol (4), (22E, 24R)-ergosta-7, 22-diene-3beta, 5alpha, 6beta, 9alpha-tetraol (5), cyclo (Leu-Pro) (6), cyclo (Ile-Leu) (7), cyclo (Pro-Val) (8), cyclo (Pro-Gly) (9), and cyclo (Hpro-Ala) (10).
