Objective:To observe the effect of Tiaozhi granule combined with rosuvastatin calcium tablets in the treatment of phlegm and blood stasis syndrome of hyperlipidemia. Methods:A total of 108 patients with hyperlipidemia who met the inclusion criteria in our hospital from March 2016 to December 2017 were recruited and randomly divided into 2 groups with 54 patients in each group. The control group took rosuvastatin calcium tablets orally, and the observation group tookTiaozhi granule on the basis of the control group. Both groups received continuous treatment for 3 months. TCM symptoms were scored, and serum TG, TC, LDL-C and HDL-C levels were detected by automatic biochemical analyzer. The Homocysteine (Hcy) levels were detected by chemiluminescence, the Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) levels were detected by ELISA, the endothelin (ET) levels were determined by radio-immunoassay, and the NO levels were determined by nitrate reductase. The Intima-media thickness (IMT) of carotid artery was determined by color doppler ultrasound imaging, and the clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results:The total effective rate was 92.6% (50/54) in the observation group and 77.8% (42/54) in the control group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2=4.696, P=0.030). After the treatment, the scores of vertigo, chest tightness, sputum and limb anesthesia in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t value were 3.630, 4.035, 3.184, 5.372, respectively, all Ps<0.01). Serum levels of TG, TC and LDL-C in the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group ( t value were 6.073, 3.159, 5.020, respectively, all Ps<0.01), and HDL-C levels were significantly higher than those of the control group ( t=7.120, P<0.05). After the treatment, IMT (1.64 ± 0.17 mm vs. 2.35 ± 0.08 mm, t=-15.928) in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P<0.01). After the treatment, the serum levels of Hcy, ICAM-1 and ET in the observation group were significantly lower than that of the control group ( t value were 5.346, 14.281, 19.028, respectively, all Ps<0.01). The NO level was significantly higher than that of the control group ( t=13.035, P<0.01). Conclusions:Tiaozhi granule combined with rosuvastatin calcium tablets can improve the disorder of lipid metabolism in patients with hyperlipidemia, reduce IMT and improve clinical efficacy.

Purpose:
5-Fluorouracil (5-Fu) is used as a conventional chemotherapy drug in chemotherapy forpatients with advanced colorectal cancer, but many patients still suffer from treatment failuredue to 5-Fu resistance. Emerging observations revealed the important role of chemokine(C-X-C motif) ligand 13 (CXCL-13) in tumor microenvironment and its relationship with prognosisin patients with colorectal cancer. This study is designed to reveal the important roleof CXCL-13 in causing colorectal cancer resistance to 5-Fu.
Materials and Methods:
CXCL-13 levels of patient's serum or cell culture supernatants were measured separatelyby enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. In cell assays, cell viability is detected by Cell CountingKit-8. Therefore, the recombinant human CXCL-13 was used to simulate its high expressionin cells while its antibody and siRNA were used to reduce CXCL-13 expression in cells.
Results:
In this study, we demonstrated that CXCL-13 is associated with 5-Fu resistance by culturemedium exchange experiments and cytokine arrays of colorectal cancer resistant and nonresistantcells. Clinical studies showed that CXCL-13 is highly expressed in the serum of5-Fu–resistant patients. High levels of serum CXCL-13 also predict a worse clinical outcome.The addition of recombinant CXCL-13 cytokine resulted in 5-Fu resistance, while its antibodyovercame 5-Fu resistance, and knockdown of CXCL-13 expression by siRNA also reduced5-Fu resistance, which can be saved by added recombination CXCL-13.
Conclusion
These results not only identify a CXCL-13 mediated 5-Fu resistance mechanism but alsoprovide a novel target for 5-Fu–resistant colorectal cancer in prevention and treatmentstrategies.

Background and objective It has been proven that video assited thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) achieved the same survival rates compared with traditional open chest operation in the treatment of early stage of lung cancer. but it is unclear if there is any difference of body inlfammatory reaction between the two operation. hTe aim of this study is to investigate the changes of inlfammatory state of thoracoscopic radical lobectomy in early peripheral lung cancer patients. Meth-ods Senventy-one early peripheral lung cancer patients who have underwent radical lobectomy were divided into two groups based on the different operation method. hTe VATS group was treated by thoracoscopic lobectomy. hTe thoracotomy group was treated by traditional thoracotomy. hTen the level of serum C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), in-terleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-10 at 1-day before operation and 3-day, 7-day postoperation were measured and compared between the two groups. Results No signiifcant difference was found in the level of serum CRP, TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-10 before opera-tion. Compared to the thoracotomy group, the level of serum CRP, TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-10 in the VATS group were signiifcant-ly lower atfer operation. Conclusion Compared with thoracotomy lobectomy, thoracoscopic lobectomy for early peripheral lung cancer patients is associated with lower inlfammatory responses .

Objective:To explore the occurrence and influencing factors of paralytic ileus (PI) in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), so as to provide references and basis for the formulation of clinical nursing intervention measures.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 93 AIS patients who were hospitalized in Spine Center of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2019 to June 2020 were selected as the research objects. The general information, disease and operation related information of patients were collected, and the incidence of PI was recorded. Binomial Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of PI occurrence in AIS patients after surgery.Results:PI occurred in 41.9% (39/93) patients, and the incidence of anorexia, abdominal distention, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain were 66.7% (26/39), 61.5% (24/39), 59.0% (23/39), 30.8% (12/39) and 20.5% (8/39), respectively. Binomial Logistic regression analysis showed that straight leg elevation exercise ( OR=3.582, P=0.023), postoperative first feeding time ( OR=1.209, P=0.027), proton pump inhibitors ( OR=6.820, P=0.002) and osteotomy ( OR=5.516, P=0.007) were the influencing factors of PI occurrence after AIS. Conclusions:The incidence of PI is higher in AIS patients after surgery and the accompanying symptoms are mainly anorexia, abdominal distension and nausea. Straight leg elevation exercise, time of first postoperative feeding, proton pump inhibitors and osteotomy are the influencing factors of postoperative PI in AIS patients.
8.Advances in Tumor Chemo-resistance Regulated by MicroRNA
Chinese Journal of Lung Cancer 2014;(10):741-749
Chemotherapy is one of the primary treatment for malignant tumors. Tumor multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major cause of clinical failure of chemotherapy;however the mechanisms of chemo-resistance have not been fully elucidated. Recently, microRNA is one of the new hotspots in life science. MicroRNA regulates the expression of genes and plays roles a series of life events by post-transcriptional regulations, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, fat metabolism, ner-vous development, hormone secretion, tumor vessels generation, stem cell differentiation, tumor cell invasion and metastasis, and other physiological and pathological processes. Recent studies show that microRNA regulates the expression of multiple genes with high efficiency and specificity. The abnormal regulation of target genes by microRNA is responsible for tumor chemo-resistance, this may be an important component of the complexity of the regulation of chemo-resistance. hTerefore, the study of microRNA and tumor drug resistance has profound practical signiifcance. In this review, recent studies of tumor drug resistance, regulation of tumor drug resistance by microRNA, and microRNA as a potential target for tumor drug resistance therapy are reviewed.

ObjectiveTo analyze the adverse reactions associated with the clinical use of Banxia (Rhizoma Pinelliae)- Wutou (Aconitum) in the same formula, with the aim of providing a reference for the safety of their clinical application. MethodsLiterature on the clinical application of antagonistic herbs "Banxia-Wutou" used in the same formula, published from January 1st, 2014, to June 30th, 2023, was retrieved from databases including CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, SinoMed, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase. A database was established, and information related to adverse reactions was extracted, including descriptions, classifications, specific manifestations, management and outcomes, patients' primary diseases (western medicine diseases and traditional Chinese medicine diagnoses and syndromes), and medication information (dosage, ratio, administration routes, and dosage forms). ResultsA total of 79 researches simultaneously used antagonistic herbs Banxia-Wutou in the same formula and reported associated advers reactions. Gastrointestinal adverse reactions were the most common, with 8 studies reporting management of adverse reactions and 3 studies reporting improvement with no intervention. Among the 11 researches, the adverse reaction relieved to extant, while other 69 researches didn't report the managment of adverse reaction and its prognosis. For the primary disease in western medicine system, chronic bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) were most common, while gastric pain was the most common symptom in traditional Chinese medicine with spleen and kidney deficiency and spleen stomach cold deficiency being the most frequent syndromes. The most common Banxia dosage was 10 g, while for the Wutou, Fuzi (Radix Aconiti Lateralis Praeparata) was predominant with the highest dose at 15 g. The most frequent herbal combination was Banxia-fuzi, with a 1∶1 ratio. The main administration route was oral, and the primary dosage form was decoction. ConclusionGastrointestinal adverse reactions are the most common in the clinical use of Banxia-Wutou antagonistic herb combinations. Research on the safety of "Banxia-Wutou" combinations should focus on respiratory system diseases and spleen-stomach related conditions.
