Platelets Contribution to Thrombin Generation in Philadelphia-Negative Myeloproliferative Neoplasms: The “Circulating Wound” Model

Current cytoreductive and antithrombotic strategies in MPNs are mostly based on cell counts and on patient’s demographic and clinical history. Despite the numerous studies conducted on platelet function and on the role of plasma factors, an accurate and reliable method to dynamically quantify the hy...
