Figure 4. CM patients’ thrombocytopenia restricts the formation of platelet-PRBC clumps in vitro.

Figure 4

To perform auto-assays, PRBC were incubated in the presence of control PPP, PRP from the same CM patient (final count <150 ×103 platelets/ml), or PRP from the same patient but with a platelet suspension adjusted to a normal platelet count (final count >300 ×103 platelets/ml). Results are expressed as mean ± SD of percentage of PRBC that are associated with clumps. Assays were performed 3 times per CM patient sample.
