ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and mechanism of modified Guizhi Fulingwan in preventing colorectal adenoma （CRA） in mice by regulating mitochondrial apoptosis pathway through the regulation of the phosphatase and tensin homolog （PTEN）/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt） pathway. MethodSixty SPF-grade male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into six groups： Normal group， model group， low， medium， and high dose groups of modified Guizhi Fulingwan （13， 26， 52 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， and positive control aspirin group （0.015 g·kg^-1·d^-1）. A mouse model of CRA was chemically induced using azoxymethane （AOM） and dextran sulfate sodium （DSS）. During the modeling process， mice received modified Guizhi Fulingwan or aspirin. Body weight of mice was measured weekly during the treatment. After 9 weeks， the number of adenomas formed was observed. Serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and interleukin-1β （IL-1β） were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to observe the histopathologic changes in adenoma tissues. The expression of Cyclin D₁ and proliferative nuclear antigen （Ki67） was detected by immunohistochemistry （IHC）. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling （TUNEL） was used to assess the apoptosis in adenoma tissues. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot were used to observe the mRNA and protein expression levels of PTEN， PI3K， Akt， phosphorylated PI3K （p-PI3K）， phosphorylated Akt （p-Akt）， B-cell lymphoma-2 （Bcl-2）， Bcl-2 associated X protein （Bax）， cytochrome C （Cyt C）， Caspase-9， and caspase-3. ResultCompared with the normal group， the model group showed no significant change in body weight from week 1 to week 2， but a significant decrease from week 3 to week 9 （P<0.05，P<0.01）. The colorectal length was significantly shortened， and the colorectal weight increased with visible varying sized tumor-like protrusions on the mucosal surface （P<0.01）. Serum levels of TNF-α， IL-6， and IL-1β were elevated （P<0.01）. Histopathology showed disordered epithelial gland structure， elongated nuclei with pathological mitosis， and numerous lymphocytic infiltrations in the lamina propria. The positive expression rates of Cyclin D₁ and Ki67 were significantly increased （P<0.01）， while the apoptosis rate of adenoma cells was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Expression levels of PI3K， Akt， Bcl-2 mRNA and proteins， as well as p-PI3K and p-Akt proteins， were significantly increased （P<0.01）， whereas PTEN， Bax， Cyt C， Caspase-9， and Caspase-3 mRNA and protein levels were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， all drug treatment groups showed an increase in body weight （P<0.01）， decreased intestinal weight， increased colorectal length， reduced number of adenomas significantly （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and significantly lowered serum levels of TNF-α， IL-6， and IL-1β （P<0.01）. Histopathology indicated improved glandular structure and reduced neutrophil infiltration in the mucosal lamina propria. The positive expression rates of Cyclin D₁ and Ki67 significantly decreased （P<0.01）， while the apoptosis rate of adenoma cells significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Expression levels of PI3K， Akt， Bcl-2 mRNA and proteins， and p-PI3K and p-Akt proteins were significantly reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）， while PTEN， Bax， Cyt C， Caspase-9， and Caspase-3 mRNA and protein levels significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The high-dose modified Guizhi Fulingwan group exhibited the most significant intervention effects. ConclusionModified Guizhi Fulingwan may prevent CRA in mice by regulating the PTEN/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and inducing the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of Shuo Tong ureteroscopy(ST-URS) and flexible ureteroscope(FURS)combined with holmium laser lithotripsy in the treatment of upper ureteral calculi with CT numerical value ≥ 1000 HU.Methods:A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of patients of upper ureteral calculi with CT numberical value≥1000 HU in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University was made from January 2018 to November 2020.There were 61 cases treated with ShuoTong ureteroscopy holmium laser lithotripsy (ST-URS group), including 45 males and 16 females, with 40 on the left and 21 on the right, age of(48.3±12.7) years, body mass index of(24.7±2.7)kg/m 2, the diameter of stone of(1.50±0.45)cm, and the CT numberical value of(1 288.8±179.0)(1 017-1 738)HU. There were 87 cases were treated with flexible ureteroscopy holmium laser lithotripsy (FURS group), including 58 males and 29 females, with 56 on the left and 31 on the right, age of(48.5±13.0) years, body mass index of(24.1±3.8)kg/m 2, the stone diameter of(1.45±0.40)cm, and the CT numberical value of(1 311.3±188.9)(1 009-1 817)HU. There were no significant differences in gender, age, body mass index, the location of stone, the diameter of stone and the CT numberical value of stone( P>0.05)between the two groups. For ST-URS group, a rigid ureteral channel sheath and standard mirror(F7.5/11.5)were placed under direct vision, exiting the standard mirror, leaving the channel sheath, inserting a lithotripsy mirror(F4.5/6.5)and a holmium laser[Power: 8-30 W(0.4-1.0 J/20-30 Hz)], and withdrawing the stone fragments after crushing the stone by "nibbling method" . For FURS group, a hard ureteroscope(F8/9.8)was used to explore the lesion side of the ureter, inserting a guide wire and placing a soft ureteral sheath, then inserting a flexible ureteroscope(F8)for holmium laser lithotripsy, and useing a stone basket to remove larger stone fragments. Ureteral stent was routinely indwelled after the operation. On the day 1 and 1 month after the operation, imaging examinations were performed to evaluate the stone-free rate. No residual stones or the diameter of stone was ≤0.4 cm and no urinary tract infection or any symptoms were defined as stone free. The operation time, blood loss, success rate of stage Ⅰ ureteral access sheath placement, incidence of postoperative complications, stone-free rate(SFR) at 1 day after operation, SFR at 1 month after operation, postoperative hospital stay and hospitalization costs were compared between the two groups. According to the size of calculi, the 2 groups were divided into 2 subgroups(≥1.5 cm and <1.5 cm)in order to make further analysis. The operation time, stone-free rate(SFR) at day 1 after operation and SFR at 1 month after operation were compared between the two groups. Results:The operation time of the ST-URS group was shorter than the FURS group(40.10 min vs. 49.43 min, P=0.020), and the incidence of postoperative complications was lower than the FURS group[3.28%(2/61)vs. 13.79%(12/87), P=0.031]. The SFR at day 1 after operation was significantly higher than the FURS group[60.7%(37/61)vs. 25.3%(22/87), P<0.01], and the hospitalization cost was lower than that of the FURS group(27 686 yuan vs. 32 281 yuan, P<0.010). There were no significant differences in the blood loss[(4.92±9.51)ml vs.(3.95±6.04)ml, P=0.452], success rate of stageⅠureteral access sheath placement[ 96.7%(59/61)vs. 96.6%(84/87), P=1.000], SFR at 1 month after operation[81.97%(50/61) vs. 75.86%(66/87), P=0.375] and postoperative hospital stay[(2.5±1.4)d vs.(2.4±0.8)d, P=0.543] between the two groups. When the size of calculi was ≥1.5cm, the operation time of the ST-URS group was shorter than the FURS group (43.67 min vs 55.00 min), the SFR at 1 day after operation was higher than the FURS group[40.00%(12/30)vs. 9.38%(3/32)], and the above differences are all statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with the FURS, for the treatment of upper ureteral calculi with CT numerical value ≥1000 HU, the ST-URS has shorter in operative time, lower in hospitalization cost and incidence of postoperative complications and higher SFR at day 1 after operation. The ST-URS is a safe and effective surgical technique, which is superior in the treatment of larger(≥1.5 cm) stones.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) products could be registered as natural health products (NHPs) in Canada. Its registration process could be mainly divided into simple-application, traditional-application and non-traditional application. By analyzingi the TCM registration evidence system and its safety, effectiveness and quality required by different registration categories in Canada, we found that "simple-application" procesure needs to submit evidence based on the parameters of a component in the monograph. As for "traditional application", TCM products need to be used at least 50 years with, traditional material or Pharmacopoeia can be used as evidence; As for non-traditional application, TCM products need to provide evidence according to the disease risk level, and most of them need to provide scientific experiment evidence. Therefore, from the experience of TCM registration evidence system in Canada, the registration of TCM products should pay attention to improve the its classification method, refining its evidence requirements and data types, promoting the formulation of monograph of TCM, realizing the scientific evaluation and rapid review of classic famous prescriptions, and promoting the inheritance and innovative development of TCM in China.

【Objective】 To clarify the hematological characteristics and current situation of chronic mountain sickness among Tibetan residents in extreme high altitude area (more than 5 000 m above the sea level) of Ali district based on the analysis of physical examination and blood test results. 【Methods】 Totally 250 Tibetan residents were selected by convenient sampling for blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), heart rate, and blood routine examination. Chronic mountain sickness was determined according to the hemoglobin (Hb) level and SpO2. 【Results】 The red blood cell (RBC), Hb and hematocrit (HCT) of the Tibetan residents at 5 200-meter altitude were all higher than the normal physiological reference range of China. Mean red blood cell volume (MCV), mean red blood cell hemoglobin content (MCH), mean red blood cell hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), white blood cell (WBC) and platelet (PLT) were in the upper limit of the reference value. The RBC, Hb, HCT and MCHC of male Tibetan residents were higher than those of females, while PLT was lower than that of females, with significant differences. There were no statistical differences in MCV, MCH or WBC among different genders of Tibetan residents. The SpO2 of the Tibetan residents was about 85% of the normal value, and the males had higher SpO2 than the females in the same age group, and the difference was statistically significant, but the heart rate did not differ significantly. The prevalence rate of chronic mountain sickness in this area was as high as 16.4%, and the prevalence rate of heavy manual workers was significantly higher than that of light manual workers, with significant differences. 【Conclusion】 The high-altitude anoxic environment causes the changes in red blood cells, hemoglobin, and oxygen saturation of local residents, and the prevalence of chronic mountain sickness increases significantly. Labor intensity is one of the risk factors for chronic mountain sickness in high-altitude areas.

Serbia is a parliamentary republic country in Southeast Europe. It implements a health security system with social insurance as the mainstay and social assistance as a supplement. Ischemic heart disease, stroke and Alzheimer’s disease are the major causes of death, and the mortality rates of cardiomyopathy and chronic kidney disease are increasing. Serbia has relevant legislation on traditional medicine. Acupuncture, as the main form of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), has been introduced to Serbia in an early stage. Acupuncture was recognized as a legal medical method in 2005, and then the corresponding educational institutions of TCM were established soon. However, the limitation of acupuncture treatment application, difficulty in access to Chinese medicine, and undeveloped of TCM education system, all of them restrict the development of TCM in Serbia. It is recommended to improve the development and dissemination of Chinese medicine in Serbia, like to increase the promotion of acupuncture, pay attention to the Chinese medicine for preventive health care, and strengthen TCM education.

Objective To investigate the effects of Rapamycin and mammalian target of rapamycin - small in-terfering RNA (mTOR siRNA)on the proliferation,apoptosis and collagen Ⅰ(COLⅠ),collagen Ⅲ(COLⅢ)and fi-bronectin(FN)in premature rats lung fibroblasts exposed to hyperoxia. Methods 900 mL/ L volume fraction of oxygen was used to establish hyperoxia - damaged cell models,and the premature rats lung fibroblasts were divided into air control group,hyperoxia group,hyperoxia + rapamycin group and mammalian target of rapamycin - small interfering RNA transfection group. Cell proliferation was assessed by using 3 -(4,5 - Dimethylthiazol - 2 - yl)- 2,5 - dipheny-ltetrazolium bromide assay. Apoptosis were detected by Annexin V - FITC and propidium lodide (PI)double staining. The expressions of COLⅠ,COLⅢ and fibronectin was assessed by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay and Bcl - 2,P53 and pro - fibrotic factors of connective tissue growth factor(CTGF)and transforming growth factor β(TGF - β)by using Western blot. Results Compared with the air control group,the proliferation of lung fibroblasts decreased and the apoptosis increased in the hyperoxia group,while the contents of COLⅠ(28. 30 ± 0. 53 vs. 17. 43 ±0. 37),COLⅢ(27. 86 ± 1. 02 vs. 17. 43 ± 0. 37)and fibronectin(32. 87 ± 0. 42 vs. 21. 57 ± 0. 47),P53(0. 810 ± 0. 119 vs. 0. 160 ± 0. 018),TGF - β(0. 580 ± 0. 108 vs. 0. 210 ± 0. 008)and CTGF(0. 590 ± 0. 017 vs. 0. 220 ± 0. 007)were also increased but the expression of Bcl - 2(0. 150 ± 0. 004 vs. 0. 600 ± 0. 130)protein was decreased, and the differences were all statistically significant (all P < 0. 01). Compared with the hyperoxia group,the proliferation of lung fibroblasts was increased in the hyperoxia + rapamycin group,but the apoptosis was decreased,the contents of COLⅠ(23. 17 ± 0. 60 vs. 28. 30 ± 0. 53),COLⅢ(17. 09 ± 0. 58 vs. 27. 86 ± 1. 02)and fibronectin(28. 11 ± 0. 68 vs. 32. 87 ± 0. 42),P53(0. 430 ± 0. 008 vs. 0. 810 ± 0. 119),TGF - β(0. 380 ± 0. 008 vs. 0. 580 ± 0. 108)and CTGF (0. 040 ± 0. 006 vs. 0. 590 ± 0. 017)were decreased while the expression of Bcl - 2(0. 290 ± 0. 009 vs. 0. 150 ± 0. 004) protein was increased,and the differences were all statistically significant (all P < 0. 01). In the mTOR siRNA transfec-tion group,compared with the hyperoxia + rapamycin group,the proliferation of lung fibroblasts was increased,but the apoptosis was decreased;the contents of COLⅠ(15. 71 ± 0. 34 vs. 23. 17 ± 0. 60),COLⅢ (13. 85 ± 1. 36 vs. 17. 09 ± 0. 58)and fibronectin(20. 18 ± 0. 28 vs. 28. 11 ± 0. 68),P53(0. 300 ± 0. 006 vs. 0. 430 ± 0. 008),TGF - β(0. 150 ± 0. 002 vs. 0. 380 ± 0. 008)and CTGF(0. 140 ± 0. 004 vs. 0. 040 ± 0. 006)were decreased while the expression of Bcl - 2 (0. 460 ± 0. 012 vs. 10. 290 ± 0. 009)protein was increased,and the differences were all statistically significant (all P < 0. 01). Conclusion Rapamycin and mTOR siRNA can protect lung injury caused by hyperoxia and have a certain inhibitory effect on pulmonary fibrosis,and mTOR siRNA effect is more obvious,so the mechanism may be through the inhibition of mTOR signaling pathway.

Objective To assess the feasibility of anticoagulation therapy after mechanical valve replacement in grass-root health institutions.Methods One hundred and sixty one patients with mechanical valve replacement received anticoagulation therapy with warfarin,including 79 cases receiving the therapy in grass-root health institutions (test group) and 82 cases in the tertiary hospitals (control group).The patients were followed up for 12 months after operation;the rate of anticoagulation efficacy,the anticoagulationrelated complications,and the anticoagulation-related cost were documented and compared between two groups.Results The international normalized ratio (INR) tests were performed for 1 021 times in test group and 717 times were up to anticoagulation standard (70.2 ％,717/1 021),while INR tests in control group were performed for 965 times and 688 times were up to standard (71.3％,688/965);there were no significantly differences in efficacy rate between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).There were no significant differences in rate of bleeding events and thrombosis between two groups [16.5％ (13/79) vs.12.2％ (10/82),6.3％(5/79) vs.4.9％(4/82),respectively,x2 =0.596,P=0.44,x2 =0.161,P=0.69].The anticoagulation-related cost per month and per patient in test group was significantly lower than those in control group [(63.1 ±.12.8) vs.(176.6 ± 16.4) yuan,t =48.716,P ＜0.05].Conclusion Compared with the tertiary hospital,the anticoagulation therapy in grass-root institutions can accomplish the similar clinical outcomes and significantly reduce the medical cost in patients with mechanical valve replacement.

Objective To evaluate the effect of cisplatin on analgesia with morphine in rats with incisional pain.Methods Forty-two adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 180-220 g,were randomly divided into 6 groups (n =7 each) using a random number table:normal saline group (group C),normal saline + Pglycoprotein inhibitor LY335979 group (group CL),normal saline + morphine group (group CM),cisplatin group (group S),cisplatin + morphine group (group SM) and cisplatin + morphine + LY335979 group (group SML).Cisplatin 2 mg/kg was injected intraperitoneally once every two days for 5 times in S,SM and SML groups,while the equal volume of normal saline was injected intraperitoneally in C,CL and CM groups.At 2 days after the end of administration,the incisional pain models were established.At 10 min after establishing the model,normal saline 2 ml was injected subcutaneously in C and S groups; LY335979 20 mg/kg was injected via the caudal vein and normal saline 2 ml was injected subcutaneously in group CL; morphine 2 mg/kg was injected subcutaneously in CM and SM groups; LY335979 20 mg/kg was injected via the caudal vein and morphine 2 mg/kg was injected subcutaneously in group SML.Cumulative pain score was used to evaluate analgesia.Results Compared with group C,cumulative pain scores were significantly decreased in group CM,and no significant change was found in cumulative pain scores in CL and S groups.Compared with group CM,cumulative pain scores were significantly increased in group SM,and no significant change was found in cumulative pain scores in group SML.Cumulative pain scores were significantly lower in group SML than in group SM.Conclusion Cisplatin can weaken analgesia induced by morphine in rats with incisional pain through enhancing P-glycoprotein function in the blood-brain barrier.
