    Contribution of T helper 17 cells and interleukin-17 to the pathogenesis of primary immune thrombocytopenia in Egyptian children

    Though pathogenesis of primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is still rendered unclear, yet there are many research efforts that have been directed to the role of T helper 17 (Th17) and interleukin 17 (IL-17) in the pathogenesis of this disease.

    Romiplostim in children with newly diagnosed or persistent primary immune thrombocytopenia

    Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a disease of heterogenous origin characterized by low platelet counts and an increased bleeding tendency. Three disease phases have been described: newly diagnosed (≤ 3 months after diagnosis), persistent (> 3–12 …

    Immune Thrombocytopenia in Children: Consensus and Controversies

    Newly diagnosed immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a relatively common disorder of childhood that does not require an exhaustive laboratory workup for diagnosis. A history and physical exam with a review of the peripheral smear are crucial for …

    Silent bleeding in children and adolescents with immune thrombocytopenia: relation to laboratory parameters and health related quality of life

    Occult hemorrhage can occur in any internal organ in ITP patients. Four sites of occult hemorrhage require attention including microscopic hematuria, fecal occult blood loss, retinal hemorrhage, and silent intracranial hemorrhage. The aim of this …

  10. Potential risk factors for the development from immune thrombocytopenia to systemic lupus erythematosus: a case–control study in Chinese children

    Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) patients are at risk developing to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in the future. Our study attempted to explore the potential risk factors for the development from ITP to SLE in Chinese children by statistical …

  12. Favorable prognosis of vaccine-associated immune thrombocytopenia in children is correlated with young age at vaccination: Retrospective survey of a nationwide disease registry

    Childhood vaccine-associated immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) has a mostly favorable prognosis. To identify factors associated with prognosis, a retrospective survey was conducted with children with ITP who were registered in the Japanese Society of …

    Is There a Relationship Between CXCR4 Gene Expression and Prognosis of Immune Thrombocytopenia in Children?

    Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a common autoimmune disorder characterized by decreased platelet count (thrombocytopenia) and bleeding symptoms due to production of autoantibodies against platelets. Chemokines are molecules inducing chemotaxis …

    Use of therapeutic plasma exchange in children with thrombocytopenia-associated multiple organ failure in the Turkish TAMOF network

    Thrombocytopenia-associated multiple organ failure (TAMOF) can lead to high mortality in critically ill children, possibly related to consequences of thrombotic microangiopathy. Plasma exchange therapy may improve thrombotic microangiopathy [ 1 ].
