Exploring the correlation between GIRK proteins and pain behavior in trigeminal neuralgia in mice
Objective Trigeminal neuralgia is the most common maxillofacial pain syndrome, and its etiology has not been fully understood. In this paper, we focus on the role and expression of G protein-gated inwardly rectifying potassium channel (GIRK) protein in ...

The diagnostic value of pain evoked potential by electrical stimulation combined with noceciptive blink reflex in trigeminal neuralgia [PDF]
Microvascular decompression is the first choice for treating the primary trigeminal neuralgia to provide the most extended duration of pain freedom. However, in microvascular decompression, we found that this kind of operation is only suitable for ...
