Objective:To explore the changes of levels of coagulation factors at acute phase (within one week) of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and their relations with deep venous thrombosis (DVT).Methods:Two hundred and two aSAH patients (aSAH group), admitted to our hospitals from March 2015 to March 2019, were selected in our study, and these patients were divided into a combined DVT subgroup and a uncombined DVT subgroup according to whether they were combined with DVT on the first and third d of onset. One hundred healthy physical examiners whose age and gender matched with those of aSAH group were selected as control group; one, 3, 5, and 7 d after onset, and one d after enrolling of subjects from the control group, thromboelastogram (TEG) was used to detect the R value of TEG (TEG-R) in all subjects. One, two, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 d after onset, color Doppler ultrasonography was used to determine whether aSAH patients had DVT.Results:A total of 73 patients (36.14%) were combined with DVT at acute stage of aSAH; 66 were with asymptomatic thrombosis and 7 with symptomatic thrombosis; 59 were with lower extremity intermuscular vein thrombosis and 14 were with intermuscular vein thrombosis. The incidence of DVT (68/73 [93.2%]) peaked on the 1 st-3 rd d of onset. The TEG-R of patients in aSAH group was statistically lower than that of the control group on the 1 st-3 rd d of onset ( P<0.05); the TEG-R of patients in aSAH group on the 1 st-3 rd d of onset was significantly lower than that on 5 th and 7 th d of onset ( P<0.05). The TEG-R of patients in combined DVT subgroup was significantly lower than that of the uncombined DVT subgroup ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Hyperfunction of coagulation factors at acute stage of aSAH is noted within one-3 d of onset; the incidence of DVT is the highest within 3 d of onset, mainly featured as asymptomatic intermuscular venous thrombosis. Whether or not aSAH would combine with DVT is associated with hyperfunction of coagulation factors.

In recent years,the international drug control situation has become increasingly serious.According to the statistical data of the year 2021 from UNODC,in the past decade,the trafficking volume of traditional drug(such as methamphetamine,cannabis and cocaine)has continued to rise,new psychoactive substances(NPS)have emerged one after another,the drugs as well as their precursors and metabolites have become a new group of pollutants.They widely exist in environmental media such as water,air,sludge and soil,due to the manufacture and abuse of drugs,which endangers human and animal safety.Drug detection data from environmental samples can reflect the local drug use situation objectively,real-time,accurately and effectively,which is helpful to grasp the spatial distribution and time changes,monitor the development trends of drug abuse,assess the trend of drug abuse reasonably,and assist in combating related illegal and criminal activities through comprehensive data analysis.At present,sewage monitoring has become an important means of drug monitoring in countries around the world.Sewage testing can assess drug consumption in a place reasonably,and sewage network traceability technology can reduce the scope of regional investigation of drug manufacturing dens effectively,so as to combat accurately.Drug detection in the atmosphere,sludge and soil has been carried out in some foreign countries,but it has not been used as a long-term monitoring means.Long-term monitoring of drugs from the environment in a variety of ways not only helps to effectively update the drug situation in the region,but also to better understand local trends in drug use and identify new drugs of abuse.It will provide data support for more accurate monitoring and combating drug crimes in the future.This paper reviews the methods for detecting drugs and other related compounds in different environmental matrices including sewage,atmosphere and sludge in China and other countries,including the study on the sources and forms of related compounds in different environments,the preparation of different matrix samples and the quantitative analysis of drugs from environment,as well as the existing problems and shortcomings of various detection methods.Finally,the drug detection technology and comprehensive monitoring system in the environment are prospected.
