Journal ArticleDOI

Splenectomy for adult patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura: a systematic review to assess long-term platelet count responses, prediction of response, and surgical complications

TL;DR: Although the risk of surgery is an important consideration, splenectomy provides a high frequency of durable responses for adult patients with ITP and the ability to predict who will respond, and the frequency of surgical complications all remain uncertain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Survival and relapse in patients with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.

TL;DR: The Oklahoma TTP Registry is a population-based inception cohort of all 376 consecutive patients with an initial episode of clinically diagnosed TTP, and ADAMTS13 deficiency during remission was not clearly related to subsequent relapse.
Journal ArticleDOI

The incidence of immune thrombocytopenic purpura in children and adults: A critical review of published reports.

TL;DR: The current strongest estimate of the incidence of acute ITP in children is between 1.9 and 6.4 per 105 children/year; for adults the current strongest estimates are 3.3 per 105 adults/year.
Journal ArticleDOI

The incidence of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura-hemolytic uremic syndrome: all patients, idiopathic patients, and patients with severe ADAMTS-13 deficiency.

TL;DR: In all three categories, the incidence rates were greater for women and for blacks, and the greater incidence among women and blacks is comparable with their increased risk for other autoimmune disorders.
