Multicenter validation of a simplified method for paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria screening.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Approximately 40% of idiopathic thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) patients will suffer an exacerbation (recurrence of TTP within 30 d after their last plasma exchange (PE) procedure), but there are no data to predict who is at greater risk. We studied the clinical utility of demographic and ADAMTS13 b...
