Low Platelet Count Predicts Reduced Survival in Potentially Resectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Current Oncology, 2022 The prognostic role of platelet count in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear, and in fact both thrombocytopenia and thrombocytosis are reported as predictors of unfavourable outcomes.

Platelet count in impedance-based hematology analyzer: Beware of trap!
Asian Journal of Transfusion Science, 2023 Among the blood counts, platelet count is most often reported with inconsistency. Many of the analyzers work on electrical impedance principle for red blood cell (RBC) and platelet counting. However, with this technology, factors such as fragmented RBCs,

Analysis of platelet-rich plasma extraction variations in platelet and blood components between 4 common commercial kits [PDF]
, 2017 Background: Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been extensively used as a treatment in tissue healing in tendinopathy, muscle injury, and osteoarthritis. However, there is variation in methods of extraction, and this produces different types of PRP. Purpose:

Erythrocytes and Platelets: A Critical Analysis of their Ontogenic Relationship through Automated Parameters [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017 Introduction: Erythrocytes and platelets share an intimate development history, due to which special interest is centered on their relationship. Mature Red Blood Cells (RBCs) and platelets show a similar physiological rhythm, and are concurrently ...
