OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism of improvement effect of Chanbao zhichuang suppository (CBZCS) on hemorrhoids in rats through network pharmacology and metabolomics. METHODS A hemorrhoid model was established by subcutaneous injection of rhododendron oil to induce anal swelling. SD rats were divided into blank group (NC group, 0.32 g/kg vaseline), model group (Model group, 0.32 g/kg vaseline), CBZCS low-, medium-, and high-dose groups (CBZCS-L, CBZCS- M, CBZCS-H groups, with dosages of 0.16, 0.32, and 0.64 g/kg respectively), and Mayinglong musk hemorrhoids suppository group (Positive group, 0.32 g/kg), with 9 rats in each group. Anal administration was performed at 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours after modeling. After the last administration, the pathological changes of the anal tissues in rats were observed, and the serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in rats were detected. Differential metabolite analysis and enrichment analysis were conducted by metabolomics methods, and the target proteins of CBZCS in treating hemorrhoids were obtained by network pharmacology. The core metabolic pathways were screened by interaction and enrichment analysis of differential metabolites and proteins, and the core proteins were experimentally verified. RESULTS Compared with the NC group, the anal tissues of the Model group showed obvious lesions, and the levels of IL-6 and TNF- α in the serum were significantly increased (P<0.05); compared with the Model group, the pathological damage of the anal tissues in the treatment groups was alleviated to varying degrees, and serum levels of IL-6 in CBZCS-H group, CBZCS-M group, and Positive group as well as serum levels of TNF-α in CBZCS-H group were significantly reduced (P<0.05). The metabolomics results showed that 34 differential metabolites were screened from the anal tissues of rats, and 22 of them showed a return after CBZCS administration. The differential metabolites mainly enriched in arachidonic acid metabolism, histidine metabolism, and glycerophospholipid metabolism. Through the network pharmacology, 138 intersection genes of CBZCS against hemorrhoids were determined. The analysis results showed that differential metabolites and target proteins were mainly enriched in the arachidonic acid metabolism pathway, and the regulation of this pathway might be related to cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), Myc proto-oncogene protein (c-MYC), cytochrome P450 1B1 (CYP1B1), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and IL-6 protein expression. The experimental verification results showed that the expression levels of key proteins (COX-2, c-MYC, CYP1B1, IL-6, IL-1β) in the anal tissues of the Model group were significantly higher than those in the NC group (P<0.05), and the levels of the above proteins in the anal tissues of CBZCS-H group and Positive group were significantly lower than those in the Model group (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The mechanism of CBZCS in treating hemorrhoids may be to inhibit the expression of COX-2, c-MYC and CYP1B1 proteins, thereby inhibiting arachidonic acid metabolism and reducing the release of inflammatory factors IL-6 and IL-1β.

Objective:To explore the feasibility of the clinical implementation of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plans with 6MV photon on two Elekta Linacs (Versa HD and Synergy) after beam matching.Methods:The images of 12 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma, central lung cancer and prostate cancer were randomly selected, and the IMRT and VMAT plans were designed. Two different dose tools of ionization chamber and three-dimensional detector ArcCheck were used to verify the individualized radiation treatment of 6MV photon beams on two Linacs and compare the differences.Results:The deviations between the doses of two Linacs (Versa HD and Synergy) measured by the ion chamber and treatment planning system were (0.32±1.32)% and (0.54±1.29)%. The differences of all plans were within the range of ±3%, and the deviations of the point dose between two Linacs were within the range of ±2% with no statistical significance (both P>0.05). The γ analysis of verification using ArcCheck showed that the passing rates of all plans under the 2mm/3% and 3mm/3% with 10% threshold conditions were over 95%, respectively. The average differences between two Linacs were 0.19%(2mm/3%) and 0.09%(3mm/3%). Conclusions:The results of performing IMRT/VMAT plans on two Linacs meet the clinical requirements and the differences between two Linacs are small. Hence, the same plans can be implemented interchangeably on different Linacs.

Objective:
To study the dosimetric characteristics and plan quality of PTV-based intensity modulated proton radiotherapy (IMPT) and volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plans for prostate cancer, so as to provide a reference for clinical application.
Methods:
A total of 10 prostate cancer cases were included in this retrospective study. IMPT and RapidArc plans were designed by RayStation and Eclipse TPS based on PTV, respectively. For each case, IMPT plans were generated using multiple field optimization (MFO) technique with two parallel-opposed lateral fields, whereas RapidArc plans were generated using double-arc technique (two full arcs). Final dose calculation of IMPT was conducted by pencil beam(PB) and Monte Carlo (MC) algorithm, respectively, with adopted data model from the pencil beam scanning (PBS) proton therapy system of IBA Protues Plus(IBA Group, Belgium); The data model originated from the linear accelerator of Varian Clinac iX (Varian Medical Systems, America) was used for RapidArc plans. Dosimetric parameters of DVH and dose distribution were used to compare the dose differences in targets and organs at risk (OARs) between these two treatment techniques.
Results:
For targets, HIs of PB-IMPT and MC-IMPT were slightly better than that of RapidArc , but CI of IMPT was slightly lower than that of RapidArc;
