RESUMEN
The traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) decoction pieces for treating tumors in China-Japan Friendship Hospital in both outpatient and inpatient departments from January 1 to December 31, 2018 were analyzed in this paper, and the statistical analysis on the frequency and proportion of TCM decoction pieces, as well as the average dosage and dosage range were conducted. Such data were then compared with Chinese Pharmacopoeia. At the same time, data mining association rules were used to study the compatibility of TCM in oncology, and finally, the drug use in TCM was discussed. The top 20(use frequency) TCM decoction pieces for tumors were mainly based on tonic medicines; the use frequency of toxic TCM decoction pieces was low, mainly of small poisonous pieces, with dosage exceeding pharmacopoeia. The drug combinations with higher frequency included Fried Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma-Poria Cocos(16.11%), and Astragali Radix-Poria Cocos(15.10%). Drug pairs with strong associations included Achyranthes BidentataâParasitic Loranthus, Coix SeedâAchyranthes Bidentata, Achyranthes BidentataâHairyvein Agrimony, Cuscutae SemenâAchyranthes Bidentata and so on. According to the use of drugs, the drug monitoring can be emphasized from the aspects of usage and dosage, selection of processed TCM, compatibility, decoction methods, and patient education. Pharmacists can analyze the characteristics and regularity of the use of TCM for tumors through data mining methods, and this can be a cutting point for drug monitoring.

Based on the observed biological activities of coumarins and resveratrol, we synthesized fourteen hydroxylated 3-phenylcoumarins (stilbene-coumarin hybrids) including six novel ortho-hydroxy-methoxy substituted derivatives, 1-14, by Perkin reaction. We characterized these compounds concerning their antioxidant activity against 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane hydrochloride) (AAPH)-induced pBR322 DNA strand breakage, and their antiproliferative effects on human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 and human lung adenocarcinoma epithelial A549 cells. Structure-activity relationship information suggests that the introduction of ortho-hydroxy-methoxy groups and ortho-dihydroxy groups on the aromatic A ring could efficiently improve antiproliferative activity. Interestingly, a new derivative, 6-methoxy-7-hydroxy-3-(4'-hydroxyphenyl)coumarin, 9, behaved as a poor antioxidant but appeared to be the most potent antiproliferative agent among the compounds examined, and this activity was mediated by deregulation in cell cycle and induction of apoptosis.

Resveratrol is the subject of intense research as a natural antioxidant and cancer chemopreventive agent. There has been a great deal of interest and excitement in understanding its action mechanism and developing analogs with antioxidant and cancer chemoprevention activities superior to that of the parent compound in the past decade. This work delineates that elongation of the conjugated links is an important strategy to improve the antioxidant activity of resveratrol analogs, including hydrogen atom- or electron-donating ability in homogeneous solutions and antihemolysis activity in heterogeneous media. More importantly, C3, a triene bearing 4,4'-dihydroxy groups, surfaced as an important lead compound displaying remarkably increased antioxidant, cytotoxic, and apoptosis-inducing activities compared with resveratrol.
