Evidence of acute primary occult hepatitis B virus infection in an Italian repeat blood donor.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Early identification of acute traumatic coagulopathy is a key challenge during initial management to determine whether to initiate early hemostatic support. We assessed the performance of prothrombin time (PT) at point-of-care in trauma patients to detect moderate and severe coagulopathy on admission. STUDY...

abstract：BACKGROUND:Hematology analyzers use impedance, optical, and/or immunologic techniques for counting platelets (PLTs). PLT counting in whole blood has been validated thoroughly; however, this is not the case for PLT counting in PLT concentrates (PCs), in which red cells (RBCs) are absent. Therefore, this study is focused...
