Abstract
BACKGROUND "Collateral disease theory", as an important theory of traditional Chinese medicine, is often used in the clinical treatment of tumors, showing a remarkable effect, especially in advanced malignancies with blood stasis and toxin. METHODS In this study, we analyzed 5 cases of advanced malignancies, and discussed the efficacy of collateral disease theory in advanced malignancies with blood stasis and toxin. The 5 cases were suffered from right lung squamous cell carcinoma, left lung squamous cell carcinoma, stage IV endometrial carcinoma, right submandibular lymphatic follicular lymphoma and right lower lung cancer, respectively. Combining with the pathogenesis of collateral disease in traditional Chinese medicine dialectically and taking insect medicine as an example, traditional Chinese medicine was prescribed. Furthermore, the application effect of "collateral disease theory" in malignancy with blood stasis and toxin was explored. RESULTS After treated with traditional Chinese medicine, the tumor lesions in the 5 cases were reduced to varying degrees. CONCLUSION The treatment based on "collateral disease theory" is effective for advanced malignancy with blood stasis and toxin, but this finding needs to be verified by prospective studies.

Diabetol Metab Syndr 2022; 14:135.

Abstract
Salvianolic acid A (SalA) is the main water-soluble component isolated from Salvia miltiorrhiza. This study explored the influences of SalA on intestinal microbiota composition and lipid metabolism in Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats. The 6-week-old male ZDF rats were treated with distilled water (N = 10) and low dose (SalA 0.5 mg/kg/d, N = 10), medium dose (SalA 1 mg/kg/d, N = 10), and high dose (SalA 2 mg/kg/d, N = 10) of SalA, with the male Zucker lean normoglycemic rats of the same week age as controls (given distilled water, N = 10). The blood glucose, body weight, and food intake of rats were examined. After 7 and 8 weeks of continuous administration, oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and insulin tolerance test (ITT) were performed, respectively. Serum fasting insulin (FINS), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and free fatty acid (FFA) were determined. Liver tissues were stained using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and oil red O staining. Fecal samples were analyzed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Small intestinal tissues were stained using HE and immunohistochemistry. The tight junction proteins (ZO-1/Occludin/Claudin-1) and serum levels of LPS/TNF-α/IL-6 were evaluated. SalA reduced insulin resistance, liver injury, serum FFA, liver TC and TG levels in ZDF rats, and improved lipid metabolism. After SalA treatment, intestinal microbiota richness and diversity of ZDF rats were promoted. SalA retained the homeostasis of intestinal core microbiota. SalA reduced intestinal epithelial barrier damage, LPS, and inflammatory cytokines in ZDF rats. Overall, SalA can sustain intestinal microbiota balance and improve the lipid metabolism of ZDF rats.
