Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for treating pain in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering an effective amount of a nucleic acid to the subject, wherein the nucleic acid comprises a PTEN nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1. The present invention also provides a method for screening pharmaceutical compositions having an anti-pain effect, wherein the pharmaceutical compositions can stimulate the upregulation of PTEN.

Abstract: A system for cross-acquisition of physiological and psychological information includes a test database, a user interface, a database, and a control unit. The test database stores various physiological and psychological questionnaires. The database stores physiological and psychological information inputted by a user or measured by an external apparatus or transmitted thereto from the outside. The control unit includes a matching module capable of accessing the database to perform correlation matching according to a keyword in a question in a selected questionnaire, and an acquisition module for acquiring matching information and for sending the same to the user interface. Through matching and computation, the system can display previously inputted or existing corresponding information when the user comes to a question that has been answered before so as to eliminate the need to repeatedly input the same information.

Abstract: A Multiservice Access Concentrator (MAC) receives information comprising at least one data stream, at least one voice channel, at least one video stream, Local Area Network (LAN)-based traffic, and facsimile traffic. The received data stream is packetized, and the packetized data stream is multiplexed with the voice channel and the video stream to form an integrated transport stream. The voice channel comprises compressed and uncompressed voice information. The integrated transport stream is provided to at least one multi-service network using a software-configurable trunk. The multi-service network includes cell-based and packet-based networks comprising Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), Frame Relay, High-level Data Link Control (HDLC), Internet Protocol (IP), and Time Division Multiplex (TDM) networks, as well as leased-line carrier services. The trunk is configured at a physical level and a protocol level using at least one trunk option.
