Malignant tumors have surpassed stroke and coronary heart disease to become the main cause of death before the age of 70 in the world. The incidence of malignant tumors is increasing year by year， which seriously affects the living standards and social and economic development of Chinese people. Surgery， radiotherapy， chemotherapy， targeted therapy， and immunotherapy are the main means of Western medicine to intervene in tumors， which are of great significance for prolonging the survival time of patients. However， there are many disadvantages such as adverse reactions and drug resistance. Traditional Chinese medicine has become a research hotspot in recent years because of its definite curative effect and wide application in tumor treatment. Xiao Chaihutang is derived from the Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases. It is composed of Bupleuri Radix， Scutellariae Radix， Ginseng Radix， Pinelliae Rhizoma， Glycyrrhizae Preparata Radix， Ginger， and Jujube. It has the effects of reconciling Shaoyang， reconciling cold and heat Yin and Yang， soothing the liver， and relieving depression. This prescription and the prescriptions based on it are widely used in various stages of tumors. This study summarized the Chinese and foreign research of Xiao Chaihutang in the field of tumors in the past 10 years and explored the role and mechanism of Xiao Chaihutang in blocking precancerous lesions， controlling the development of malignant tumors， reducing the occurrence of adverse reactions after intervention， and alleviating common complications， with a view to expanding the clinical medication ideas.

Objective:To analyze the viscosity characteristics of liver tumors and investigate the clinical value of shear wave dispersion (SWD) in the differentiation of benign and malignant liver tumors.Methods:A total of 103 patients with focal liver lesions were prospectively collected in Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from October 2020 to July 2021, including 80 cases with single lesion and 23 cases with multiple lesions, and only the largest lesion was observed in patients with multiple lesions. SWD values were measured within the tumor and in the liver parenchyma 2 cm away from the tumor, and were compared between benign tumor group and maligant tumor group. The ROC curves of SWD value, SWD ratio and their combination in differentiating benign and malignant liver tumors were plotted respectively, and the optimal diagnostic threshold, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of different diagnostic methods were analyzed.Results:Among the 103 patients, 35 were benign and 68 were malignant. The SWD value of liver benign tumor group was lower than that of liver malignant tumor group [(16.38±3.58)m·s -1·kHz -1 vs (18.59±3.12)m·s -1·kHz -1], the SWD value of liver parenchyma background in liver benign tumor group was lower than that in liver malignant tumor group [(10.88±3.37)m·s -1·kHz -1 vs (14.31±3.34)m·s -1·kHz -1], and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The SWD ratio of benign tumor to surrounding liver parenchyma was higher than that of malignant tumor group [1.57(1.25, 2.00) vs 1.27(1.06, 1.57)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). When the SWD value >15.60 m·s -1·kHz -1 was used as the cut-off value, the area under ROC curve (AUC) was 0.72, the sensitivity was 88.2%, the specificity was 51.4%, and the accuracy was 75.7%. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and AUC were 58.8%, 74.2%, 63.1%, and 0.68, respectively, when the ratio of SWD value<1.32 was used as the cut-off value. SWD value combined with SWD ratio for the diagnosis of liver malignant tumor, the AUC was 0.88, the sensitivity was 82.3%, the specificity was 83.0%, and accuracy was 81.6%. The diagnostic efficacy of the two in combination for liver malignant tumor was superior to SWD value ( Z=2.678, P=0.007 4) and SWD value ratio ( Z=3.822, P=0.000 1). Conclusions:SWD imaging can reflect the viscosity information of liver tumors and surrounding liver parenchyma, and has potential clinical application value in the differentiation of benign and malignant tumors.

Stroke is considered a leading cause of mortality and neurological disability, which puts a huge burden on individuals and the community. To date, effective therapy for stroke has been limited by its complex pathological mechanisms. Autophagy refers to an intracellular degrading process with the involvement of lysosomes. Autophagy plays a critical role in maintaining the homeostasis and survival of cells by eliminating damaged or non-essential cellular constituents. Increasing evidence support that autophagy protects neuronal cells from ischemic injury. However, under certain circumstances, autophagy activation induces cell death and aggravates ischemic brain injury. Diverse naturally derived compounds have been found to modulate autophagy and exert neuroprotection against stroke. In the present work, we have reviewed recent advances in naturally derived compounds that regulate autophagy and discussed their potential application in stroke treatment.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic performance of ultrasound attenuation imaging (ATI) in grading the degree of hepatic steatosis in metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD).Methods:The liver gray-scale ultrasound and ATI examinations were performed on 212 subjects who were treated in Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from August 2020 to March 2021. The attenuation coefficient(AC) values among different degrees of hepatic steatosis were analyzed and the diagnostic performance of ATI was evaluated. Relationships between AC values and clinical characteristics were assessed by Pearson′s correlation analysis.Results:The AC values for normal liver, mild, moderate and severe fatty liver were (0.56±0.05)dB·cm -1·MHz -1, (0.68±0.09)dB·cm -1·MHz -1, (0.82±0.09)dB·cm -1·MHz -1, (0.94±0.09)dB·cm -1·MHz -1, respectively. There were significant differences in AC values among different hepatic steatosis divisions( P<0.008). There was highly significant correlation between AC values and the degree of hepatic steatosis( r=0.860, P<0.01), moderate correlation between AC values and BMI( r=0.425, P<0.01), weak correlation between AC values and HDL-C( r=-0.237, P=0.029), no correlations between AC values and age, TC, TG, LDL-C ( r=0.083, 0.055, 0.133, -0.039, all P>0.05) .The areas under the receiver operating characteristics curve of ATI for mild fatty liver and above, moderate fatty liver and above, severe fatty liver and above were 0.958, 0.962, 0.918; the sensitivity were 90.1%, 95.8%, 94.9%, the specificity were 96.1%, 87.1%, 73.9%, and the cut-off values were 0.666 dB·cm -1·MHz -1, 0.719 dB·cm -1·MHz -1, 0.803 dB·cm -1·MHz -1, respectively. Conclusions:ATI is a reliable and convenient method for evaluating the degree of hepatic steatosis in MAFLD.

Objective:To investigate the clinical feasibility of three-dimensional contrast-enhanced ultrasound (3D-CEUS) in the quantitative assessment of blood perfusion of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:Between January 2020 and August 2021, 36 HCC patients (39 lesions in total) confirmed by pathology and clinical diagnosis without any treatment from Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University were enrolled and underwent both 2D-CEUS and 3D-CEUS examinations. Each examination last for 150 s and all images were recorded, and then the data were analyzed. A region of interest was manually drawn along the margin of the whole tumor and then the time-intensity curve (TIC) generated. The following perfusion parameters were extracted: peak intensity (PI), peak time (TTP), ascending slope (AS), mean transit time (MTT) and area under the curve (AUC). After calculating the quality of fit (QOF) of the curve, the intraobserver agreement of the 3D-CEUS quantitative parameters obtained by the same doctor between two times were assessed, and the consistency of the 3D-CEUS and 2D-CEUS quantitative parameters was evaluated when QOF>75%. The differences of the quantitative parameters between different groups (divided by depth of 8 cm and necrosis rate of 50%, respectively) in 3D-CEUS were compared.Results:There were 38 lesions (97.4%, 38/39) with QOF>75% in 3D-CEUS. The intraobserver agreement was excellent, the intraclass correlation efficient(ICC) values was 0.85-0.99. The consistency of the time quantitative parameters (TTP and MTT) were high (the ICC values of 0.87 and 0.91), and the correlation of intensity quantitative parameters were substantial, the rs values were 0.71, 0.72 and 0.71. The differences in 3D-CEUS quantitative parameters of the two groups of lesions with different depths were statistically significant (all P<0.05); but there were no significant differences in quantitative parameters between the two groups with different necrosis rate (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Quantitative 3D-CEUS is an useful and creditable tool in evaluating the blood perfusion of HCC, especially when the depth of lesion was less than 8 cm.

OBJECTIVE：Compare the fingerprint difference of Vaccariae Semen before and after processed （stir-fried），and to determine the contents of erythrine and vaccarin before and after stir-fried. METHODS ：UPLC method was adopted. The determination was performed on YMC Trait C 18 column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-water （gradient elution ）at the flow rate of 0.35 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 219 nm，and the column temperature was 35 ℃. The sample size was 1 μL. Using vaccarin as reference，the fingerprints of Vaccariae Semen crude product and its processed product （each of 17 batches，S1-S17，CS18-CS34） were drawn. The similarity evaluation and common peak identification were carried out by Similarity Evaluation System of TCM Chromatographic Fingerprint （2012 edition）；cluster analysis ，principle component analysis （PCA）and factor analysis were performed by using SPSS 20.0 software. The contents of erythrine and vaccarin in Vaccariae Semen crude product and its processed product were determined by UPLC. RESULTS ：There were 5 common peaks in UPLC fingerprints of 17 batches of Vaccariae Semen crude product and its processed product. The similarities were all higher than 0.99. Among them ， 2 common peaks were identified ，i.e. erythrine ，vaccarin. Results of cluster analysis showed that S 1-S17 were clustered into one category and CS 18-CS34 were clustered into one category. Results of PCA and factor analysis showed that variance contribution rate of the first principle component was 76.418％；erythrine and vaccarin had higher loading on the first principal component （eigenvalues were 0.976 and 0.966，respectively）. The linear ranges of above 2 components were 6.437-321.832 μg/mL and 7.729-386.437 μg/mL，respectively（r＞0.999）. The limits of detection and quantitation were 0.085，0.284 ng （crude product） and 0.739， 2.465 ng （processed product ）， respectively. RSDs of precision ，reproducibility，stability（12 h）and durability tests were all lower than 3％（n＝6 or n＝5）. E-mail：1083656123@qq.com Average recoveries were 96.42％（RSD＝0.85％，n＝6）and 99.13％（RSD＝1.74％，n＝6）. The contents of the two components were 0.11％-0.20％，0.42％-0.63％（crude product ）and 0.08％-0.11％，0.34％-0.50％（processed product ）. CONCLUSIONS ：UPLC fingerprint of Vaccariae Semen crude product and its processed product are established successfully. Although the chemical constituents in Vaccariae Semen are consistent before and after stir-fried ，the contents of erythrine and vaccarin are all decreased after stir-fried.

AIM: To study the bioequivalence of rosuvastatin calcium tablets produced by two different manufacturers on a fasting and postprandial basis in Chinese healthy subjects. METHODS: A single-center, randomized, balanced, open, two-sequence, two-cycle, double-crossover, and single-dose trial design was used in this study. Each of the fasting group and the postprandial group was enrolled in 52 healthy subjects. Fasting/postprandial oral rosuvastatin calcium tablets 10 mg test preparation or reference preparation, the validated LC-MS/MS method was used to determine the concentration of rosuvastatin calcium tablets in plasma, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated. Human bioequivalence and safety evaluation of two rosuvastatin calcium tablets were evaluated. RESULTS: The t

To investigate the effects of clinical P-glycoprotein inhibitors on oral bioavailability and brain penetration of gefitinib, 16 inhibitors and gefitinib were co-administered orally to ICR mice. The suspension of gefitinib and CMC-Na were co-administered to the control group. The suspension of gefitinib and clinical P-glycoprotein inhibitors were co-administered to the control group. Blood samples and brain homogenate samples were extracted by protein precipitation with acetonitrile and determinated by LC-MS/MS. It was found that ritonavir can significantly increase the oral bioavailability of gefitinib, and the area under the plasma concentration-time curves(AUC)of gefitinib was increased by 2 times; while brain exposure was increased, there was no increment in brain penetration. Some other drugs can also increase the plasma AUC of gefitinib, but can not enhance the brain penetration; After we corrected brain concentration with fraction of unbound drug in brain, it was found that the brain concentration of gefitinib in both control group and ritonavir group did not achieve the in vitro IC50 of inhibiting non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)cell growth. Our results suggest that clinical doses of the 16 clinical P-glycoprotein inhibitors can not specifically increase brain tissue exposure, more specific and safer P-gp inhibitors are required. After we corrected brain concentrations with fraction of unbound drug in brain, our preclinical studies found that insufficient brain exposure may be one of the reasons for the unsatisfactory efficacy of gefitinib in the treatment of brain metastases.

Objective To explore the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS) on the diagnosis of undetected liver cancer.Methods The study was focused on 85 consecutive patients from Jan 2015 to Sep 2016.The patients suspected liver cancer by clinical symptoms and other imaging studies were examined for regular gray-scale ultrasound and CEUS.Results Ninety-two lesions in 85 patients were confirmed by surgery,clinic manifestation and other imaging.All lesions including invisible or poorly invisible with greyscale ultrasound were examined by CEUS with the guideline of MRI imaging.Twenty lesions were detected by grey-scale ultrasound,89 lesions were detected by CEUS.The maximum diameter of those hepatic lesions was 20 mm × 18 mm,the minimum lesions was 8 mm × 6 mm.All the lesions were isoechoic,slightly hyperechoic or hypoechoic on grey-scale sonogram with mostly indistinctive margins.After SonoVue administration,82 lesions (92.1 ％) displayed as hyper-enhanced in arterial phase and 7 lesions (7.9 ％) as iso-enhanced.Sixty-one lesions(68.5 ％) showed hypo-enhanced and 28 lesions (31.5 ％) showed iso-enhanced in portal-vein phase.Seventy-four lesions(83.1 ％) showed hypo-enhancement and 15 lesions (16.9 ％) also showed iso-enhanced in late phase.The average enhancement time began at (15.3 ±6.1)s,reached to peak at (25.2 ± 8.8)s and decreased from (95.7 ± 57.8)s.Among 89 lesions,61 lesions (68.5％) were accordanced with fast in fast out and 28 lesions (31.5％) were no fast in fast out.The percentage of no fast in fast out on CEUS in undetected liver tumor was higher than in common liver tumor,the comparative difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Contrast-enhanced ultrasound has a more characteristic performance in undetected liver cancer and the higher detection rate than grey scale ultrasound.
