Platelets are most important in providing cellular hemostasis but also take part in
inflammation and immune processes. Increased platelet size has been regarded as a …

Reticulated platelets are immature platelets circulating in blood; they reflect the activity of
megakaryopoiesis in the bone marrow. Therefore, they can be used as a non-invasive test in …

Background—The clinical impact of platelet aggregation assessed by point-of-care assays is
unknown. We sought to evaluate whether high residual platelet reactivity (RPR) to ADP …

Background: Immature platelets are less responsive to the effects of antiplatelet drugs and
contain messenger ribonucleic acid that is translationally active. They can be measured …

Platelets newly released from the bone marrow are RNA-containing and more
haemostatically active than mature platelets. Immature platelets are reliably quantified by …

Platelets are causally involved in coronary artery obstruction in acute coronary syndromes
(ACS). This cell type is unique to mammals and its production, which is unlike that of any …

Reticulated platelets (RP) are newly-formed platelets with a greater mass, a residual amount
of RNA and an increased prothrombotic potential. No studies investigating the association …

The mechanisms through which moderate wine consumption reduces ischemic
cardiovascular events are not yet fully unraveled. Grape extracts or a mixture of the …

Background: Previous studies have demonstrated considerable variation in the antiplatelet
effect of aspirin. Objectives: To investigate the impact of platelet turnover on the antiplatelet …

Large platelets with high haemostatic activity may lead to increased platelet aggregation..
Mean platelet volume (MPV), an indicator of platelet reactivity, may emerge as a prognostic …
