Bulk fluid phase behaviour of colloidal platelet-sphere and platelet-polymer mixtures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Using a geometry-based fundamental measure density functional theory, we calculate bulk fluid phase diagrams of colloidal mixtures of vanishingly thin hard circular platelets and hard spheres. We find isotropic-nematic phase separation with strong broadening of the biphasic region upon increasing the pressure.

Bulk and interfacial properties of binary hard-platelet fluids [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E 69, 021506 (2004), 2003
Interfaces between demixed fluid phases of binary mixtures of hard platelets are investigated using density-functional theory. The corresponding excess free energy functional is calculated within a fundamental measure theory adapted to the Zwanzig model, in which the orientations of the particles of rectangular shape are restricted to three orthogonal ...

Dental management considerations for the patient with an acquired coagulopathy. Part 1: Coagulopathies from systemic disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Current teaching suggests that many patients are at risk for prolonged bleeding during and following invasive dental procedures, due to an acquired coagulopathy from systemic disease and/or from medications.

Anomalous Platelet Transport & Fat-Tailed Distributions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
The transport of platelets in blood is commonly assumed to obey an advection-diffusion equation. Here we propose a disruptive view, by showing that the random part of their velocity is governed by a fat-tailed probability distribution, usually referred to as a L\'evy flight.

Platelet function tests using platelet aggregometry: need for repetition of the test for diagnosis of defective platelet function

open access: yesPlatelets, 2003
Four hundred and ninety seven patients were referred to our center for platelet aggregation studies because of spontaneous mucocutaneous bleeds. All these patients had normal complete blood count, platelet count and peripheral smears except in ten patients of Bernard Soulier Syndrome where platelet count was marginally reduced in the presence of giant ...

Vortex interactions in a thin platelet superconductor [PDF]

open access: yesJ Stat Mech (2008) 11004, 2008
The thermal fluctations of vortices in a superconductor can be usefully mapped onto the quantum fluctations of a collection of bosons at T=0 moving in 2 dimensions. When the superconductor is a thin platelet with the magnetic field parallel to its surface, the interacting quantum bosons are effectively moving in 1 dimension, allowing for powerful ...

Transmission matrix of a uniaxial optically active crystal platelet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Expressions corresponding to the transmission of a uniaxial optically active crystal platelet are provided for an optical axis parallel and perpendicular to the plane of interface. The optical activity is taken into account by a consistent multipolar expansion of the crystal medium response due to the path of an electromagnetic wave. Numerical examples

Demand Forecasting for Platelet Usage: from Univariate Time Series to Multivariate Models [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Platelet products are both expensive and have very short shelf lives. As usage rates for platelets are highly variable, the effective management of platelet demand and supply is very important yet challenging. The primary goal of this paper is to present an efficient forecasting model for platelet demand at Canadian Blood Services (CBS).

Effects of pH and concentration of sodium citrate anticoagulant on platelet aggregation measured by light transmission aggregometry induced by adenosine diphosphate

open access: yesPlatelets, 2018
The 2013 ISTH-SSC guidelines for the standardization of light transmission aggregometry (LTA) were largely based on expert consensus, as studies directly comparing LTA methodologies were lacking.
