Abstract excerpt
We determined the oxidative phenotype and metabolic ratio of debrisoquine in 96 Chinese patients with Alzheimer's disease (n = 12), Parkinson's disease (n = 55), and using patients with stroke and cervical spondylosis as controls (n = 29). We did not find any difference in debrisoquine metabolic phenotype among Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and control patients as judged by chi-square analysis. In...
