Purpura with regular shape in an adolescent: Beware of dermatitis artefacta

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
BackgroundPurpura is common in pediatric patients, mostly diagnosed as IgA-related vasculitis (Henoch–Schönlein purpura), idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). However, in some cases, for example, cases

Role of defensins in immunothrombosis

Rheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
Defensins are important proteins that link the immune system and blood clotting, playing a key role in immunothrombosis. α‐defensins mainly come from neutrophils, while β‐defensins are produced by epithelial cells and platelets. These proteins help form blood clots in several ways: they slow down clot breakdown (fibrinolysis), activate platelets, and ...

Secondary immune thrombocytopenic purpura with renal cell carcinoma

IJU Case Reports, 2019
Introduction Several types of cancers are reported to induce secondary immune thrombocytopenia resembling immune thrombocytopenic purpura‐like syndrome. However, renal cell carcinoma‐induced immune thrombocytopenic purpura is an extremely rare phenomenon.
