Background: Endoscopic surgery of Western medicine has developed rapidly in treating ureteral calculi while traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) therapy also has its advantage, thus the integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy may have an even better efficacy in dealing with this problem. Objective: To observe the clinical effects of sequential therapy of Quantong Recipe, a compound traditional Chinese herbal medicine, combined with ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy on ureteral calculi. Design, setting, participants and interventions: A total of 151 patients with ureteral calculi (stone diameter of 3 to 21 mm) from Department of Urology, Yueyang Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were included, of which 106 patients with stone diameter of 3 to 10 mm were treated with Quantong Recipe for the first two weeks. Twenty patients with unexpelled stones and 45 patients with stone diameter of more than 10 mm were treated with ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy. The 65 patients except one open operation were divided into regular treatment group (32 cases) and regular treatment combined with Quantong Recipe group (32 cases) after lithotripsy. The efficacy was assessed after one week. Main outcome measures: Cure rate in the patients with stone diameter of less than 10 mm after two-week Quantong Recipe treatment was calculated, and clearance rate in the patients with residual stone for ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy after one-week Quantong Recipe treatment was also observed. Results: After taking Quantong Recipe for two weeks, the stones in 86 patients were completely discharged, and the stones in 6 patients were not completely discharged, but the unexpelled stones had moved down more than one segment of ureteral stenosis; the total response rate was 86.79% (92/106). The 64 patients with stones unexpelled or with stone diameter of more than 10 mm were treated with ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy, and the clearance rate of residual stone was 93.8% in regular treatment combined with Quantong Recipe group, and was 71.9% in regular treatment group, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion: Sequential therapy of Quantong Recipe integrated with ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy demonstrates a significant advantage of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy in treating ureteral calculi.

Objective To study a gastric carcinoma subcell line with higher invasive potential and its biologic characteristics screened by a transwell chamber. Methods Transwell chamber was used for the selection of tumor subline. The biological characteristics of the cell lines were studied with optics microscope, Westem blotting, Transwell, immunohistochemical staining and growth curve. Results A gastric carcinoma cell subcell line (named MKN-28S10) was established from its parent cell line MKN-28 with higher invasive potential. MKN-28S10 showed essentially the same morphous as MKN-28. The expression of E-cadherin and TIMP-1 decreased significantly in the screened subcell line(P<0.05). The expression of NM23-H1 in MKN-28S10 was significantly lower than that in MKN-28 (P<0.05). Compared with MKN-28 (61.75±2.06 per vision), the migrative ability of passing through the membrane Millipore(100.25±0.50 per vision) was obviously increased in MKN-28S10(P<0.05). Compared with MKN-28, the growth rate of MKN-28S10 was increased obviously. Conclusion MKN-28S10 cell has stronger invasive ability and more powerful proliferation than that of its mother line MKN-28.

Objective: To investigate the protective effect of moxibustion in initiating the endogenous protection information on gastric mucosa, and its relationship with the pathway of common peroneal nerve.Methods: Forty-eight Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into a normal group (group A), a model group (group B), a moxibustion model group (group C) and a moxibustion model plus surgery group (group D), 12 in each group. Except for group A, rats in the other groups were treated with dehydrated ethanol and aspirin to prepare gastric mucosal damage model. The rats in group B were not treated with any interventions; rats in group C received moxibustion at Zusanli (ST 36), twice a day for continuous 3 d. The rats in group D were subjected to preparing the gastric mucosal damage model after the common peroneal nerve transection, followed by moxibustion at Zusanli (ST 36). After a 3-day intervention, ulcer index (UI) in each group was observed, and the levels of gastric mucosa-related repair cytokines of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-4 (IL-4) and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) were detected.Results: Compared with group A, the pathological changes and UI of group B were worse (P=0.000), but TNF-α in serum and tissue was changed significantly (P=0.000,P=0.002), IL-4 in serum and tissue was improved significantly (P=0.000, P=0.000). Compared with group B, TNF-α and IL-4 in group C and group D were significantly improved (TNF-α:P=0.003, P=0.016; IL-4:P=0.000,P=0.002). Compared with group C, the changes of UI in group B and group D were poor (both P=0.000); the levels of TNF-α and IL-4 in serum were significantly decreased (TNF-α:P=0.000,P=0.025; IL-4:P=0.000, P=0.034); and tissue HSP70 levels were decreased significantly (P=0.000,P=0.033).Conclusion: Zusanli (ST 36) can transmit information through the pathway of common peroneal nerve, regulate the release of gastric mucosal protective factors, and up-regulate the expression of cytothesis-related proteins, so as to achieve the effect in repairing gastric mucosa.
