Platelet estimation: its prognostic value in pregnancy induced hypertension.
Thrombocytopenia is an associated phenomenon of Pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH). But the accurate count of platelets either by manual, (direct or indirect methods) or by automated cell counters is not feasible for all patients at all hospitals. Therefore we have adopted the method of platelet estimation, not platelet count as an alternate procedure to estimate the degree of thrombocytopeni...

New born delivered to mothers with hypertension are more liable for intrauterine growth retardation and may be delivered prematurely. We aimed to determine the effect of pregnancy-induced hypertension on complete blood count, gestational age and birth weight of newborn...
متن کاملIncreased platelet angiotensin II receptor number in pregnancy-induced hypertension.
Women with pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) are characterized by relatively greater blood pressure sensitivity to exogenous angiotensin II (Ang II) than normotensive pregnant women. Evidence suggests that this is due to an alteration in Ang II receptor sites. However, the question of whether this represents an increase in receptor number or affinity remains unanswered. To answer this questi...
متن کاملThe association of platelet count and mean platelet volume (MPV) index with types of stroke
Background: Stroke is known to be the third most prominent cause of death in the developing countries and the most common debilitating neurologic disease. This study aimed to investigate the association of platelet count (PC) and mean platelet volume (MPV) index with various stroke types. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out on patients over the age of 18 years who presented wit...
