A Comprehensive Review of Gene Mutations in Inherited Blood Disorders Among the Saudi Population
Background Inherited blood disorders (IBDs) are a major health concern in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), largely due to the high prevalence of consanguineous marriages. Objectives This review is aimed at summarizing gene mutations and variants associated with IBDs in the Saudi population to enhance diagnosis and personalized care. Methods Published

ABSTRACT Introduction Light transmission platelet aggregometry (LTA) is useful to diagnose platelet function disorders (PFD). We evaluated the precision and reproducibility of LTA with low platelet count platelet‐rich plasma (LPRP). Methods LPRP maximal aggregation (MA) precision for informative agonists and LTA reproducibility were assessed using ...

Abstract Platelets are anucleate cells produced in the bone marrow and derived from large progenitor cells called megakaryocytes (MKs). Platelets receive RNA transcripts from their progenitorial MKs during thrombopoiesis. However, the correspondence between platelet and MK transcriptomes is poorly understood, particularly in the context of germline ...

Current Knowledge on Inherited Platelet Function Disorders
Inherited platelet function disorders (IPFDs) are rare and underdiagnosed in individuals with clinically significant bleeding diathesis. IPFDs are classified according to the causative molecular defects involved in the process of primary hemostasis of ...

Bernard-Soulier syndrome: a flow cytometric analysis of membrane GP-Ib expression
A case of Bernard-Soulier syndrome in a five-year-old female is presented. The diagnosis was confirmed by flow cytometric analysis of glycoprotein Ib (CD 42b) in addition to the patient's classic laboratory findings such as prolonged bleeding time,
