    FNAIT pathogenesis determined by serial analysis of three subsequent pregnancies of a woman with severe fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) with anti-HPA-4b and anti-HPA-5b alloantibodies in the first sibling

    Fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) is caused by anti-HPA alloantibody, and anti-HPA-4b is the most common cause in Japanese. Anti-HPA-5b is frequently detected in pregnant women, but it is ...

    Immature platelet fraction (IPF) as a predictive value for thrombopoietic recovery after allogeneic stem cell transplantation

    We consecutively examined the utility of measurements of percentage of immature platelet fraction (IPF%) and absolute IPF number (A-IPF) in predicting thrombopoietic recovery in 15 adult patients who underwent...

    Clinical significance of IPF% or RP% measurement in distinguishing primary immune thrombocytopenia from aplastic thrombocytopenic disorders

    The diagnosis of primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is based on differential diagnosis. Although the measurement of percentages of reticulated platelets (RP%) by flow cytometry is useful as a supportive dia...

    A case of neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia in the presence of both anti-HPA-4b and anti-HPA-5b antibody: clinical and serological analysis of the subsequent pregnancy

    Neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (NAIT) is induced by maternal alloantibodies raised against fetal platelet antigens inherited from the paternal parent. In contrast to Caucasians, in Asians, predominantly ...
