A Japanese herbal(Kampo,汉方)medicine,十全大补汤(juzentaihoto/Shi-Quan-Da-Bu-Tang),is one of the nourishing agents, a so-called"补剂(Hozai/Bu-Ji)," that is used for improving disturbance and imbalances in the homeostatic condition of the body. This formulation is orally administered to patients in various weakened states, including postsurgery patients and patients with chronic illness, where it can alleviate general symptoms such as extreme fatigue, pale complexion, loss of appetite, dry or scaly skin, night sweating, and dryness of the ***, juzentaihoto/Shi-Quan-Da-Bu-Tang has been shown to have a variety of biological activities, including activation of natural killer cells and macrophages, cytokine induction, antibody production, antitumor effects in combination with surgical excision or other drugs, and protection against the adverse effects of anticancer drugs and radiation, including immunosuppression and bone marrow toxicity. This article focuses on the antitumor and antimetastatic properties of some Kampo medicines and mainly describes the effects of juzentaihoto and its related formulations on tumor development, progression, and metastasis in vivo. We also discuss the inhibitory mechanism of action and the importance of the prescription and constituent crude drugs in determining the efficacy.

AIM To investigated the association between adenoma detection rate(ADR) and sessile serrated ADR(SSADR) and significant predictors for sessile serrated adenomas(SSA) *** This study is a retrospective, single-center analysis. Total colonoscopies performed by the gastroenterologists at the University of Tokyo Hospital between January and December 2014 were retrospectively identified. Polyps were classified as low-grade or high-grade adenoma, cancer, SSA, or SSA with cytological dysplasia, and the prevalence of each type of polyp was investigated. Predictors of adenoma and SSA detection were examined using logistic generalized estimating equation models. The association between ADR and SSADR for each gastroenterologist was investigated by calculating a correlation coefficient weighted by the number of each gastroenterologist's *** A total of 3691 colonoscopies performed by 35 gastroenterologists were assessed. Overall, 978 (26.5%) low-and 84 (2.2%) high-grade adenomas, 81 (2.2%) cancers, 66 (1.8%) SSAs, and 2 (0.1%) SSAs with cytological dysplasia were detected. Overall ADR was 29.5%(men 33.2%, women 23.8%) and overall SSADR was 1.8%(men 1.7%, women 2.1%). In addition, 672 low-grade adenomas (68.8% of all the detected lowgrade adenomas), 58 (69.9%) high-grade adenomas, 29 (34.5%) cancers, 52 (78.8%) SSAs, and 2 (100%) SSAs with cytological dysplasia were found in the proximal colon. Adenoma detection was the only significant predictor of SSA detection (adjusted OR: 2.53, 95%CI: 1.53-4.20; P < 0.001). The correlation coefficient between ADR and SSADR weighted by the number of each gastroenterologist's examinations was 0.606(P < 0.001).CONCLUSION Our results demonstrated that ADR is correlated to SSADR. In addition, patients with adenomas had a higher prevalence of SSAs than those without adenomas.
