A Case of Recurrent Acute Myocardial Infarction Complicated With Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Managing patients with immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) and thrombocytopenia is challenging when they present with AMI, especially when platelets are severely decreased after interventional therapy. Our case shows that such patients, if stable, can be safely and successfully treated with glucocorticoid to improve platelet count after ...

Canine Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura [PDF]
Abstarct Canine idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is a disease in which antibodies bound to the surface of platelets mediate premature platelet destruction by macrophages. ITP in dogs and chronic ITP in humans are analogous diseases.

Objective Several recent reviews of published studies have shown that the eradication of H. pylori infection in patients with ITP improved thrombocytopenia in about half of the cases. However, most included studies were observational case series.

Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura [PDF]
Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura in children usually a self limiting disorder. It may follow a viral infection or immunisation and is caused by an inappropriate response of the immune system. About 20-30% of children will fail to remit over six months (chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura).

Background. Platelet-derived indices have a well-established correlation with the differential diagnosis of thrombocytopenia in adult-based research. These indices include mean platelet volume, platelet distribution width, and platelet-large cell ratio.

Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura after Mastectomy and Axillary Lymph Node Dissection
First described in 1916, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is an autoimmune disease resulting in the destruction of platelets. Here, we present a case of an 85-year-old patient diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast whose surgical
