COVID-19 Vaccination-Related Myocarditis: What We Learned From Our Experience and What We Need to Do in The Future
Korean Circ J. 2024 Apr 1. doi: 10.4070/kcj.2024.0065. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 has led to a global health crisis with substantial mortality and morbidity. To combat the COVID-19 pandemic, various vaccines have been developed, but unexpected serious adverse events including vaccine-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia, carditis, and thromboembolic events have been reported and became a huddle for COVID-19 vaccination. Vaccine-related myocarditis (VRM) is a rare but significant adverse event associated primarily with mRNA vacci...

Clinical Outcome and its Predictors in Children With Newly Diagnosed Immune Thrombocytopenia
CONCLUSION: The rate of chronicity and intracranial bleeding in our cohort is more than the reported rates in literature. Higher ALC was found to be associated with response.PMID:38655885 (Source: Indian Pediatrics)

Inflammation modifies the platelet reactivity among thrombocytopenia patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
Platelets. 2024 Dec;35(1):2327835. doi: 10.1080/09537104.2024.2327835. Epub 2024 Apr 24.ABSTRACTPercutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) patients combined with thrombocytopenia (TP) are usually considered to be at low ischemic risk, receiving less proper antiplatelet therapy. However, recent studies reported a paradoxical phenomenon that PCI patients with TP were prone to experience thrombotic events, while the mechanisms and future treatment remain unclear. We aim to investigate whether inflammation modifies platelet reactivity among these patients. Consecutive 10 724 patients undergoing PCI in Fuwai Hospital were enrolle...

Magnitude of Thrombocytopenia and Associated Factors among Pregnant Women Attending the Antenatal Care Service Unit of Wachemo University Nigist Ellen Mohammed Comprehensive Specialized Hospital Hosanna, Southern Ethiopia
CONCLUSION: The magnitude of thrombocytopenia in this study was 14.8%. Rural residence, cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, and anemia were significantly associated with thrombocytopenia. Therefore, the platelet count should be routinely determined during antenatal care visits for proper diagnosis and to minimize bleeding during and/or after childbirth.PMID:38655566 | PMC:PMC11039013 | DOI:10.1155/2024/8163447 (Source: Advances in Hematology)

Visceral Leishmaniasis (VL) Clinical Presentation, Laboratory Findings, Treatment Options and Outcome
CONCLUSION: VL should be included in the differential diagnosis of any child who presents with fever, splenomegaly, and anemia. Concerning the treatment strategy in this study, liposomal amphotericin B had more efficiency and shorter hospitalization duration.PMID:38654944 | PMC:PMC11033536 | DOI:10.18502/ijpa.v19i1.15190 (Source: Iranian Journal of Parasitology)
