Through literature tracing,the key issues such as the historical origin,drug composition,base,preparation,dosage,decoction,and main treatment of Daotan Decoction were analyzed to provide literature support for the development and clinical applica-tion of the classic formula.After analysis and verification,Daotan Decoction derives from Wu Yankui's Circulated Applicable Prescrip-tions,which is composed of five medicines:Pinellia,Arisaema,Fructus Aurantii Immaturus,Tangerine peel,and Red Poria.Except for Red Poria,the bases of the other drugs follow the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia,among which Red Poria and Tangerine peel are used in the raw form,Pinellia is alum processed Pinellia,Fructus Aurantii Immaturus is Bran Fried Fructus Aurantii Immatu-rus,and Arisaema is prepared Arisaema.The dosage is suggested to be 18.59 g of Semenxia,4.65 g of Tiannanxing,4.65 g of Hove-nia,4.65 g of Tangerine Red,4.65 g of Poria.When decocting Daotan Decoction,the drugs must be ground into pieces,sieved through No.1 sieve,added with 10 g ginger and 600 mL of water,decocted to 300 mL,filtered to remove the residue,and taken after meals.This formula dries dampness,dispels phlegm,moves qi and relieves depression,and is mainly used for treating various diseases and syndromes,such as phlegm-syncope,chest and diaphragm congestion,lateral thorax and rib distension and fullness,eating less and anorexia,etc.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of nuclear pore membrane protein 121(POM121)in head and neck mucosal melanoma(HNMM)and its effect on the migration and invasion of HNMM cells.Methods The cancer tissues from 63 patients with HNMM and 20 adjacent normal oral epithelial tissues who were treated in the Harbin Cancer Hos-pital of Harbin Medical University from March 1,2011 to March 30,2015 were collected,and the expression of POM121 was detected by immunohistochemistry.The relationship between the expression of POM121 and the clinicopathological features of HNMM patients and its effect on the prognosis of patients were analyzed.Western blot was used to detect the expression of POM121 in HNMM cells(MM9H-1 cells)and human oral epithelial cells(human oral keratinocytes,HOK cells).After knocking down POM121 with small in-terfering RNA(siRNA),the effects on the migration and invasion of HNMM cells were detected by Scratch assay and Transwell assay.Results Immunohistochemistry showed that expression of POM121 was significantly higher in HNMM tissues than that in adjacent tissues(P<0.001).The expression of POM121 was associated with tumor size and stage(P<0.05).Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the disease-free survival(DFS)and overall survival(OS)of patients with low expression of POM121 were significantly longer than those with high expression of POM121.Cox regression analysis showed that POM121 expression,AJCC stage and lymph node metasta-sis were influencing factors for OS and DFS of HNMM patients(P<0.05).Western blot results showed that the expression of POM121 protein in MM9H-1 cells was significantly higher than that in HOK cells(P<0.05).After knocking down POM121,the cell migration rate and cell invasion ability were significantly reduced(P<0.001).Conclusion POM121 is highly expressed in HNMM tissues and cells,and down-regulation of POM121 significantly inhibits the migration and invasion of HNMM cells.

Objective:To compare the accuracy of different stone scoring systems for predicting the stone-free rate (SFR) after retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS).Methods:The clinical data of 227 patients with lithiasis undergoing RIRS from June 2017 to December 2020 in Affiliated Benq Hospital of Nanjing Medical University and Qingdao Fuwai Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. There were 152 males and 75 females. The average age was (53.0±10.4) years old. The average body mass index was (26.9±2.1)kg/m 2. The maximum diameter of the stone was (22.7±12.8)mm. The stone is located in left side in 133 cases and in right side in 94 cases. The stones of 44 cases were located in upper ureter, upper calyceal or renal pelvis, that of 23 cases were in medium calyceal, 157 cases in lower calyceal, and 3 cases in calyceal diverticulum.The average CT value of stone was (778.3±350.4)HU. American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA)scores: 86 cases of grade Ⅰ, 129 cases of grade Ⅱ, 12 cases of grade Ⅲ. Preoperative non-contrast CT was conducted and three-dimensional data were constructed. A single observer reviewed and entered the modified S.T.O.N.E., RUSS, modified S-ReSC, R. I.R.S., SHA.LIN, Ito nomogram, S. O.L.V.E., stone free index (SFI) scores. Logistic analysis were performed between every score and SFR. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to detect sensitivity and specificity of every score in predicting the SFR. The predictive accuracies of all scores were compared. Results:The SFR was 83.0%(189/227). There were statistically significant differences in modified S. T.O.N.E.(10.5±1.9 vs. 12.7±1.8), RUSS[1(0, 4) vs. 3(0, 6)], modified S-ReSC (8.2±5.6 vs. 11.8±6.0), R.I.R.S.(6.2±1.4 vs. 8.1±1.2), SHA.LIN (9.9±2.4 vs. 13.0±2.1), Ito nomogram (12.1±5.8 vs. 4.3±3.3), S. O.L.V.E. (6.8±1.6 vs. 8.7±1.2), SFI score (7.9±1.1 vs. 6.3±0.9) between the stone-free group and the stone remaining group ( P <0.05). Logistic regression revealed that modified S.T.O.N.E., RUSS, modified S-ReSC, R. I.R.S., SHA.LIN, Ito nomogram, S. O.L.V.E. and SFI score were significantly associated with SFR( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the area under the curve (AUC) between the modified S. T.O.N.E., RUSS, R. I.R.S., SHA.LIN, Ito nomogram, S. O.L.V.E. and SFI score( P>0.05), but there were significant differences in the AUC between modified S-ReSC score and other score ( P<0.05). When the cutoff of SHA.LIN, SFI and R. I.R.S. score was determined as 10, 6 and 6 scores, the specificity of SHA.LIN, SFI and R. I.R.S. score was 94.7%, 92.6% and 89.5%, respectively. Conclusions:All score could predict the postoperative SFR of RIRS, while the SHA.LIN, SFI and R.I.R.S. score were more accurate than the other scores. The accuracy of the modified S-ReSC in predicting SFR after RIRS was slightly worse than other scores.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of dilated intercellular space detected by light microscope for non-erosive reflux disease (NERD) and erosive esophagitis (RE). Methods A total of 104 subjects were divided into normal control group (n = 20), NERD group (n = 30) and RE group (n = 54).Biopsies were taken at 2-3 cm above the dentate line and were examined by light microscope to calculate the intercellular space and compared between different groups. Results The mean values of intercellular space in RE ( 1.40 ±0. 17 μm) and NERD ( 1.11 ± 0. 14 μm) were significantly higher than that in control group (0.66±0. 18 μm, x2 = 154. 170, P =0.000). But no significant difference was noted between RE and NERD groups ( t = 0. 044, P = 0. 834). The cut-off value of mean intercellular space with light microscope was 0. 89 μm, with sensitivity and specificity at 95.2% and 95.0%, respectively. Conclusion Dilated intercellular space under light microscope can be a sensitive, specific and objective indicator of NERD.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of clopidogrel in human gastric epithelial cell line (GES-1) injury.MethodsSet up GES-1 cells monolayer culture model.Then the GES-1 cells were divided into negative control group,U0126 intervented group,clopidogrel intervented group and combined intervented group (U0t26 treated firstly then clopidogrel intervented).The cell proliferation and apoptosis in each group was examined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay and Flow cytometry.TheexpressionofphosphorylatedERK1/2ineachgroupwasdetectedby immunocytochemistry method,and the expression quantity of phosphorylated ERK1/2 in each group was measured by western blot.ResultsThe result of MTT assay showed that compared with negative control group,the proliferation of GES-1 cells was inhibited in U0126 group,clopidogrel group and combined intervented group,and the inhibition percentage was 21.8％ ±2.7％,46.3％ ± 3.4％ and 82.9 ％ ± 0.8 ％ respectively ( F=615.556,P =0.000 ).The result of immunocytochemistry indicated that the expression of p-ERK in U0126 group,Clopidogrel group and combined intervented group decreased compared with negative control group,which was 10.80±1.64,7.20± 1.64,4.40±0.89and 1.40±0.55 respecitively (F=49.426,P=0.000).The result of western blot and immunocytochemistry was of the same trend.Conclusion In GES-1 cell model,clopidogrel may injureGES-1 cells through MAPK/EPK signal transduction pathway.
