Does anti-HPA-1a affect birthweight in fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia?

Background: Fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) ensues from parental incompatibility for platelet alloantigens with maternal sensitization. HPA-1a/1b incompatibility is the most common cause of FNAIT in Caucasians. Placental villitis and lower birthweight in FNAIT suggest anti-HPA-1a may have effects beyond inducing thrombocytopenia.
