Intravenous thrombolysis and platelet count.

OBJECTIVE To study the effect of platelet count (PC) on bleeding risk and outcome in stroke patients treated with IV thrombolysis (IVT) and to explore whether withholding IVT in PC < 100 × 109/L is supported. METHODS In this prospective multicenter, IVT register-based study, we compared PC with symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH; Second European-Australasian Acute Stroke Study [ECASS I...

Effect of zidovudine on platelet count.

namely, a low family income and lack of a confidant. There was no interaction between these two factors in their effect. The logistic regression of probability (case)/probability (non-case) on income and the presence of a confidant showed a good fit with an additive model, the mean (SE) estimates for their effects being 1-16 (0 45) and 1-80 (0-59) respectively. This means that, compared with a ...

A study of total platelet count, adhesive platelet count and platelet adhesiveness in various phases of normal menstrual cycles.

The fact t,hat among other changes, menstruation involves bleeding from the blood vessels injured at the shedding of the uterine mucosa has directed special interest to the blood changes which attend the phases of menstrual cycles. Demonstrable fall in the platelet count at the time of menstruation (Pfeiffer and ,Hoff, 1929) and the simultaneous lowering of capillary resistance (Henning, 1924) ...
