Anticoagulants are widely used in the prevention and treatment of thromboembolism.Existing anticoagulants share the common feature of antagonizing or blocking critical steps in the coagulation cascade,which also increases the risk of bleeding.Studies have indicated that factor Ⅺ inhibitors represent a potential therapeutic option for balancing thrombosis and bleeding risks.In recent years,various factor Ⅺ inhibitors,including antisense oligonucleotides(ASOs),monoclonal antibodies,synthetic small molecules,natural peptides,and aptamers,have been extensively researched as potentially exploitable anticoagu-lants.Research findings also suggest that factor Ⅺ inhibitors can reduce bleeding risks while ensuring anticoagulant efficacy,ex-hibiting potential for thrombosis prevention and treatment in patient populations such as those with end-stage renal disease,non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke,and acute coronary syndrome.This article reviewed the mechanisms of action,drug classes,pharma-cological characteristics,and clinical research progress of factor Ⅺ inhibitors,aiming to provide insights into the development of new anticoagulants and clinical anticoagulant therapies.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of haloperidol combined with auricular point pressing therapy in children with tic disorders.Methods A total of 120 pediatric patients diagnosed with tic disorders at the Department of Pediatric Rehabilitation,Cangzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine,Hebei Province from March 2022 to March 2024 were enrolled.Participants were randomly divided into an observation group(n=60)and a control group(n=60)using a random number table.The control group received haloperidol alone,while the observation group received additional auricular point pressing therapy.Treatment duration was 12 weeks.After 3 months,clinical efficacy was assessed by comparing:Yale Global Tic Severity Scale(YGTSS)scores,serum 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)and dopamine(DA)levels,immune function markers(CD3+,CD4+),and incidence of adverse reactions between groups.Results(1)The overall efficacy rate in the observation group was 91.67％(55/60),while that in the control group was 76.67％(46/60).The efficacy of the observation group was superior to that of the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).(2)After treatment,the YGTSS scores of children in both groups was significantly improved(P＜0.05),and the observation group showed a significantly greater improvement in YGTSS scores than the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).(3)After treatment,the levels of 5-HT and DA in both groups of children were significantly improved(P＜0.05),and the observation group showed a significantly greater improvement in 5-HT and DA levels than the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).(4)After treatment,CD3+and CD4+levels were significantly improved in both groups(P＜0.05),and the observation group showed a significantly greater improvement in CD3+and CD4+levels than the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).(5)There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the observation group and the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＞0.05).Conclusion The combination of haloperidol and auricular point pressing therapy significantly improves clinical symptoms and immune function in children with tic disorders,demonstrating both efficacy and safety.

Objective To evaluate the efficiency of colored Doppler ultrasound for the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules. Methods A total of 150 patients with thyroid nodules admitted to Wuwei Municipal People’s Hospital, Anhui Province, China during the period from July 2018 to December 2023 were enrolled. All patients underwent colored Doppler ultrasound of the thyroid gland and pathological examination of the thyroid nodules. The pathological examination of the thyroid nodules served as a gold standard to evaluate the value of colored Doppler ultrasound for the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules. In addition, the value of different ultrasound image features for differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules was evaluated. Results With the pathological examination of the thyroid nodules as a gold standard, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy of the colored Doppler ultrasound were 100.00%, 95.87%, 85.29%, 95.87%, and 96.67% for the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules. For differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules, a > 1 ratio of longitudinal to transverse diameters of thyroid nodules, irregular margin, and microcalcification showed a 100.00% sensitivity, irregular acoustic halos showed a 100.00% specificity, and microcalcification had the highest accuracy (98.00%). Conclusion Colored Doppler ultrasound has a high value for the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules. A > 1 ratio of longitudinal to transverse diameters of thyroid nodules, irregular margin, and microcalcification provide valuable insights into the differentiation between benign and malignant thyroid nodules.

Patients with gastric cancer are at high risk for venous thromboembolism(VTE)and bleeding,and patients who develop VTE are often associated with poor outcomes,making it clinically challenging to identify and manage the risk of thrombosis in patients with gastric cancer.Risk factors for VTE in gastric cancer patients include age,obesity,surgery,chemotherapy,etc.It is essential to identify high-risk patients and adopt aggressive prevention strategies.The main strategy to prevent and treat VTE is the use of anticoagulant drugs.This article discusses guidelines and recent studies for the prevention and treatment of VTE in patients with gastric cancer to help clinicians make individualized decisions for their patients and maximize clinical outcomes for their patients.

Patients with primary membranous nephropathy(PMN)tend to develop thrombosis,especially in the early phase of the disease.The pathogenesis of thrombosis is multifactorial,with hypoalbuminemia being widely regarded as an inde-pendent risk factor.Other factors include proteinuria,M-type phospholipase A2 receptor antibody,and D-dimer.Although prophy-lactic anticoagulation therapy is frequently used in clinical practice to prevent thrombosis in PMN patients,there are still many un-resolved issues regarding the optimal prevention of thrombosis in this condition.The timing of prophylactic anticoagulation,the threshold of serum albumin level,and the choice of treatment regimen are still lacking consensus.This article reviewed the relevant literature on these topics,aiming to establish a standard for thrombosis prevention and treatment for this population in the future and provide guidance for clinical practice.
