TL;DR: This study showed a prevalence of thrombocytopenia of 23.4% in APS patients, and these patients did not present any significant clinical or serological features that distinguish them from those patients without throm bocy topenia.
Abstract: OBJECTIVE—To determine the prevalence of thrombocytopenia in a group of patients suffering from the antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and to investigate whether these patients may have any particular clinical or serological features.
METHODS—Retrospective analysis. A group of 171 APS patients seen in our department were studied for the presence of thrombocytopenia. Clinical and serological features of these patients were analysed by standard methods and each of them was correlated to the presence of thrombocytopenia and compared with those found in the group without thrombocytopenia.
RESULTS—Each of the patients studied had a minimum of three platelet counts during the follow up period. Forty (23.4%) were found to have thrombocytopenia; 13 with persistently low and 27 patients with intermittently low platelet counts. There were no statistically significant differences in sex, age, disease duration or diagnosis when compared with the group of APS patients without thrombocytopenia. Thrombocytopenia was associated with thrombosis in 18, with miscarriages in five, and with both of these features in 13 patients. It was the only manifestation of the APS in four patients. All patients had persistently positive tests for antiphospholipid antibodies concomitantly with the low platelet counts. No significant association was found between the presence of thrombocytopenia and clinical or serological manifestations in APS patients.
CONCLUSION—This study showed a prevalence of thrombocytopenia of 23.4% in APS. These patients did not present any significant clinical or serological features that distinguish them from those patients without thrombocytopenia.

TL;DR: It can be assumed that the population structure of wild olives from the north-western Mediterranean partially reflects the evolutionary history of these populations, although hybridization between true oleasters and cultivated varieties in areas of close contact between the two forms must be assumed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a study of the feasibility of near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) for analytical monitoring in wineries is presented, in which equations for the determination or screening of the commonest enological parameters are proposed.
