Pretreatment platelet count predicts survival outcome of patients with de novo non-M3 acute myeloid leukemia [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Background Pretreatment platelet count has been reported as a potential tool to predict survival outcome in several solid tumors. However, the predictive value of pretreatment platelet count remains obscure in de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML ...

Hematology, 2001 Accurate and reliable platelet counting is critical for the clinical management of platelet disorders, especially in thrombocytopenia. The platelet count is used to determine if the patient requires a platelet transfusion. As the prophylactic transfusion trigger is now set anywhere between 10-20 × 10(9)/L (depending upon the institution) it is ...

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,

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 COUNTS AND PLATELET FUNCTION [PDF]
Blood, 1946 Abstract Determinations of the platelet count, clot retraction, bleeding time, capillary fragility, and coagulation time were made in 64 normal subjects and in 404 patients suffering from various diseases. The normal values for the platelet count done by an experienced technician using the Rees and Ecker method were: mean,

Disease pathogenesis, treatment effectiveness, and co-morbid burden among adult patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) [PDF]
, 2011 Background Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune disease involving autoantibody-mediated platelet destruction, suboptimal platelet production, and T-cell-mediated platelet lysis.
