Peripheral Blood Cytopenia and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease and Mortality
Background Individual blood cell count abnormalities have been associated with cardiovascular disease and increased mortality. In this study, we defined a “cytopenia phenotype,” reflecting bone marrow hypoproliferation, to determine if peripheral blood cytopenia is associated with increased cardiova...
