Reticulated platelets are immature platelets circulating in blood; they reflect the activity of
megakaryopoiesis in the bone marrow. Therefore, they can be used as a non-invasive test in …

Background Platelet activation contributes to cardiovascular disease (CVD), the main
complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and pre‐diabetic conditions. Mean platelet …

Background: Immature platelets are less responsive to the effects of antiplatelet drugs and
contain messenger ribonucleic acid that is translationally active. They can be measured …

Reticulated platelets (RPs) are larger, hyperreactive platelets that contain significantly more
ribonucleic acid (RNA) compared with mature platelets (MPs). High levels of RPs in …

Aims The influence of reticulated platelets (RPs) on platelet inhibition by ticagrelor when
compared with prasugrel is unknown. We aimed to determine the influence of RPs on …

Summary COVID‐19, caused by SARS‐CoV‐2, is a contagious life‐threatening viral
disease that has killed more than three million people worldwide to date. Attempts have …

Objective—Aspirin together with thienopyridine P2Y12 inhibitors, commonly clopidogrel, is a
cornerstone of antiplatelet therapy. However, many patients receiving this therapy display …

Background Reticulated platelets (RP) are the youngest circulating platelets in blood. An
increased amount of this subpopulation is associated with higher cardiovascular risk and …

Human platelets differ considerably with regard to their size, RNA content and
thrombogenicity. Reticulated platelets (RPs) are young, hyper-reactive platelets that are …

Background: Previous data suggest that reticulated platelets significantly affect antiplatelet
response to thienopyridines. It is unknown whether parameters describing reticulated …
