Evaluation and management of platelet transfusion refractoriness [PDF]
Platelet transfusion refractoriness (PTR), in which platelet counts do not increase after transfusion, occurs in many patients receiving platelet transfusions. PTR is a clinical condition that can harm patients. The causes of PTR can be divided into two types: immune and non-immune. Most cases of PTR are non-immune. Among immune causes, the most common

A Practical and Efficient Multiplex qPCR Assay for Simultaneous Detection of HLA Cross-Reactive Groups and Human Platelet Antigens. [PDF]
This assay enables multiplex genotyping of HLA‐CREGs and HPA alleles from whole blood using qPCR with an integrated parallel negative control. Results are interpreted based on amplification curves and Ct values, with validity dependent on strict quality control criteria for both the target reactions and the negative control.
