PLATELET COUNT ON DENGUE

Dengue with Normal Platelet Count and no Hemoconcentration: Automated Hematogram in Cases with Underlying Thalassemia

Dear Editor, Dengue is an important arbovirus infection. This infection can result in an acute febrile illness. The important hematological abnormalities included hemoconcentration and thrombocytopenia (1). Due to the decreased platelet count, the patient might develop petechiae and hemorrhagic complication. In endemic area, the presumptive diagnosis of dengue is usually derived by the cl...

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 ...

Platelet count and aging.

The platelet count in pregnancy.

The platelet count was measured at approximately monthly intervals during the course of 44 normal pregnancies. There was no evidence of any fall in the platelet count during pregnancy. Any significant change in the platelet count in pregnant women is unlikely to be the result of a normal pregnancy.

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...
