The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical significance and diagnostic performance of the immature platelet fraction (%IPF) in Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF). Samples obtained from 32 healthy control subjects and 40 CCHF patients (9 positive and 31 negative radiological findings) were evaluated in the study. The samples obtained from CT-positive subjects demonstrated higher IPF% values which also exhibited a positive correlation with mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet size deviation width (PDW) values.The patient group IPF% values were positively correlated with the duration of hospital stay. The ROC analysis also suggested the potential importance of IPF values higher than 10.5% in diagnosing CCHF patients with positive radiological findings.The results of our study showed that % IPF can be considered as a useful parameter in the follow-up of the disease course in patients with CCHF.

Introduction: Platelet transfusion has been therapeutically used in patients with thrombocytopenia and platelet function defects over the years. The use of advanced techniques may add value in assessing the quality of platelet products. The aim of the study was to assess stored platelet concentrates (PCs) prepared in blood banks for platelet indices, clot strength, and platelet function.

Problem: Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a critical pregnancy complication linked to increased perinatal morbidity and mortality. Inflammation plays a key role in FGR's pathophysiology, and systemic inflammation markers may serve as predictors. This study evaluates the role of various inflammation indices; systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI), pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), lymphocyte-to-platelet ratio (LMR), monocyte-to-platelet ratio (MPR), aggregate systemic inflammation index (AISI), systemic coagulation inflammation index (SCII), and immature granulocyte percentage (IG%) in predicting FGR.

Materials And Methods: The increase of the radiographic root area (RRA) of each REP tooth was measured at each follow-up visit after the end of orthodontic treatment. The study included two experimental groups of patients aged 7-17 with REP-treated teeth.

Background: This series investigates the efficacy of regenerative endodontic therapy (RET) using various platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) formulations in treating apical periodontitis and necrotic pulp in immature permanent teeth.
Aim: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of different PRF formulations in RET.
Materials And Methods: Three cases involving patients aged 15-16 with immature teeth and necrotic pulp were treated with RET using PRF, injectable PRF, and advanced PRF.

Background: Immature granulocytes can be measured easily in a complete blood count by new automated hemolytic analyzers and have recently been studied as bio-markers in many infectious/inflammatory diseases. This study aims to investigate whether immature granulocyte percentage (IG%) would enable greater discrimination than conventionally utilized laboratory values in terms of early clinical prediction in instances with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis.
Methods: A prospective observational cohort study involved 149 individuals with RSV bronchiolitis.
