They can be assessed by flow cytometry (FCM) after staining with thiazole orange (TO) at low concentration and expressed as a fraction of the total platelet count (RP%). The diagnosis of primary ITP is based on differential diagnosis and the measurement of RP% can serve as an alternative diagnostic test that are useful in daily practice. Our study aimed at distinguishing primary ITP from other thrombocytopenic disorders, especially aplstic (hypoplastic) or chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia by FCM. The sensitivity and specificity of the assay as well as agreement between RP% measurement and monoclonal antibody-specific immobilization of platelet antigen (MAIPA) were analyzed accordingly.', 'detailedDescription': 'The investigators are undertaking a multi-center, prospective blind trial of 500 adults with thrombocytopenic disorders with a platelet count less than 60\\*10\\^9/L from 4 medical centers in China.

RP% was analyzed on a flow cytometer (FACScan, Becton-Dickinson) by measuring 10,000 events in the CD42b-positive fraction.\n\nClinical information of all participants including gender, age, platelet count and definitive diagnosis were recorded by an exclusive investigator. RP% results were revealed at the end of recruitment and after all FCM measurements were completed. The agreement between clinical diagnosis and RP% results were analyzed to identify primary ITP.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '75 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': '500 adults with thrombocytopenic disorders with a platelet count less than 60000/uL from 4 medical centers in China.', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
