Patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) suffer from an autoimmune bleeding disorder with an isolated low number of platelets. Platelets and megakaryocytes are targeted by the immune system, due to a loss of immune tolerance, via the action of platelet-autoantibodies and/or cytotoxic T cells. ITP is a highly variable disorder regarding the underlying biological mechanisms, disease trajectories and treatment responses.

The coexistence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in the same patient is referred to as overlap syndrome (OS). Patients with OS suffer more frequently from cardiovascular disease (CVD) and carry a higher risk of COPD-related exacerbations than patients with COPD alone, especially when OSA is left untreated. Based on recent evidence, triple therapy, namely inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting muscarinic antagonist/long-acting beta-agonist (ICS-LABA-LAMA), is a treatment strategy in COPD patients with a history of exacerbations and/or CVD comorbidity.
