The reference interval for platelet count of subjects aged between 18 and 60 years was 60-259 × 109/L in Suzhou and 52–202 × 109/L in Chengdu, and subjects with platelet counts of 100 × 109/L or less accounted for about 30% of the subjects examined in these cities.

Abstract Hemostasis is initiated by injury to the vascular wall, leading to the deposition of platelets adhering to components of the subendothelium. Platelet adhesion requires the presence of von Willebrand factor and platelet receptors (IIb/IIIa and Ib/IX).

Platelet is a blood cell type that is stored and circulated in the human body. It acts as a blood thickening agent and prevents blood from overflowing whenever bleeding occurs. An excessive or inadequate number of platelets could lead to platelet-related diseases. The current practice of platelet counting involves the manual counting process using a haemocytometer, Wright’s Stain which uses the dyes to facilitate the differentiation of blood cell types, and a tally counter. Yet, this process can be time-consuming, demanding, and exhausting for haematologists, and likely to be prone to errors.

Abstract Introduction: In ITP, platelets opsonized with antibodies are phagocytosed by macrophages. Activation of macrophages often triggers aggravation or relapses of ITP as demonstrated following vaccination, infections. G-CSF stimulates granulocyte colonies but can stimulate macrophages at higher concentrations in vitro. We report recurrence of severe life threatening ITP following G-CSF therapy, successfully managed by selective injury of macrophages with sequential infusions of platelets and vinca-alkaloids.

Abstract:
Beyond their role in hemostasis, platelets have emerged as key contributors in the immune response; accordingly, the occurrence of thrombocytopenia during sepsis/septic shock is a well-known risk factor of mortality and a marker of disease severity. Recently, some studies elucidated that the response of platelets to infections goes beyond a simple fall in platelets count; indeed, sepsis-induced thrombocytopenia can be associated with—or even anticipated by—several changes, including an altered morphological pattern, receptor expression and aggregation. Of note, alterations in platelet function

Many studies and metanalyses have investigated the risk factors associated with poor outcomes from COVID-19 infection. Different clinical as well as laboratory parameters have been shown to correlate with disease severity, including age, male gender, smoking history, presence of one or more co-morbidities, heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and chronic lung disease. Among these risk factors, several studies suggest that a decreased platelet count

Nevertheless, platelet DG TEM testing is still largely a research tool and has not been thoroughly validated and standardized as a clinical test.

Abstract Platelets have been hypothesized to promote certain neoplastic malignancies; however, antiplatelet drugs are still not part of routine pharmacological cancer prevention and treatment protocols. Paracrine interactions between platelets and cancer cells have been implicated in potentiating the dissemination, survival within the circulation, and extravasation of cancer cells at distant sites of metastasis. Signals from platelets have also been suggested to confer epigenetic alterations, including upregulating oncoproteins in circulating tumor cells, and secretion of potent growth factors
