Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 12/29/08
Sarris I et al. - The early pregnancy platelet count was compared between the two groups using t-test and its ability to predict SCD-related complications in pregnancy was investigated using Receiver-Operator Characteristics curve. Compared with asymptomatic patients, women who developed SCD-related complications had significantly higher early-pregnancy platelet count. These indicate that the platelet count in early pregnancy is significantly higher in SCD patients who subsequently develop SCD-related complications and may be used for screening.
