Published: February 2006

Study Objective: The aim of the study was to determine the duration and effects of aspirin on platelet function.

Study Design: Prospective investigation.

Setting: Blood samples from volunteers. PATIENTS AND MONITORING: Ten healthy male volunteers took part in this investigation. After having measured baseline hemostatic parameters, 2000-mg aspirin was taken orally. Subsequently, the hemostatic profile had been compiled daily for a duration of 4 days after ingestion.

Measurements And Main Results: Platelet function was analyzed (1) after 3 hours and (2) daily for 4 days by the platelet function analyzer (PFA-100, Dade Co, Miami, Fla), which represents a sensitive investigation method for measuring platelet function and dysfunction. Routine hemostatic parameters were investigated. Three hours after ingestion of aspirin, abnormal PFA-100 values could be detected. Further detectable elevated values were found during the following 3 days.

Conclusion: Effects of single-dose aspirin 2000 mg on platelet function were detected after 3 hours and had been lasting for the following 3 days. This result shows that PFA-100 may help by evaluating hemostasis during the preoperative period.

Introduction: This prospective, single-arm pharmacodynamic study assessed the effect of colchicine (COLC) [Strides Pharma UK Ltd, Watford, Hertfordshire, England] 0.5 mg administered orally once daily for 14 days on platelet reactivity with respect to aspirin reaction units (ARUs) and P2Y reaction units (PRUs).

Methods: Twenty-two patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) on dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with daily maintenance aspirin and clopidogrel were recruited.

Purpose: Patients with partial or complete DPD deficiency have decreased capacity to degrade fluorouracil and are at risk of developing toxicity, which can be even life-threatening.

Case: A 43-year-old man with moderately differentiated rectal adenocarcinoma on capecitabine presented to the emergency department with complaints of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, and lower abdominal pain for several days. Laboratory findings include grade 4 neutropenia (ANC 10) and thrombocytopenia (platelets 36,000).

Platelets and neutrophils are among the most abundant cell types in peripheral blood. Beyond their traditional roles in thrombosis and haemostasis, they also play an active role in modulating immune responses. Current knowledge on the role of platelet-neutrophil interactions in the immune system has been rapidly expanding.

Objectives: To explore the predictive factors for non-response to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) in children with Kawasaki disease (KD) and to establish an IVIG non-response prediction scoring model for the Sichuan region.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted by collecting clinical data from children with KD admitted to four tertiary hospitals in Sichuan Province between 2019 and 2023. Among them, 940 children responded to IVIG, while 74 children did not respond.
