Diagnosis of Inherited Platelet Disorders on a Blood Smear [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2020
Inherited platelet disorders (IPDs) are rare diseases featured by low platelet count and defective platelet function. Patients have variable bleeding diathesis and sometimes additional features that can be congenital or acquired. Identification of an IPD is desirable to avoid misdiagnosis of immune thrombocytopenia and the use of improper treatments ...

Diagnosis of inherited platelet disorders on a blood smear: a tool to facilitate worldwide diagnosis of platelet disorders [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2017
Essentials There are many hereditary platelet disorders (HPD) but diagnosing these is challenging. We provide a method to diagnose several HPDs using standard blood smears requiring < 100 µL blood. By this approach, the underlying cause of HPD was characterized in ~25-30% of referred individuals.

Dialysis-related thrombocytopenia: a case report

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Nephrology, 2021
Thrombocytopenia is frequently observed in hemodialysis patients, and its correct investigation and control remain a challenge. It is estimated that during the hemodialysis session there is a drop of up to 15% in the platelet count, with recovery after ...

Platelet Activation in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type-1 Patients Is Not Altered with Cocaine Abuse. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Recent work has indicated that platelets, which are anucleate blood cells, significantly contribute to inflammatory disorders. Importantly, platelets also likely contribute to various inflammatory secondary disorders that are increasingly associated with

The utility of flow cytometric platelet forward scatter as an alternative to mean platelet volume

open access: yesPlatelets, 2022
The use of mean platelet diameter (MPD) to classify inherited thrombocytopenia (IT) has been demonstrated in several studies. Alternatively, the mean platelet volume (MPV) may be used, but in macrothrombocytopenia this may not be available.

Disorders of the aggregation function of platelets against the background of a deficiency of certain vitamins and microelements in children

open access: yesЛечащий Врач, 2023
The purpose of the work is the relevance of multilevel influence of deficiency of some nutrients on children's health. Nowadays, "unexplained" hemorrhagic syndrome is quite common in children. At the same time, standard methods of examination of patients
