“…25,27,45,51,53,56 In accordance with an overall prolongation of bleeding time, platelet adhesion to glass was reported to be decreased in ten out of 12 studies. 28,45,46,50,51,55,[57][58][59][60] Platelet adhesion under flow to a membrane coated with collagen and ADP (platelet function analyzer-100) was decreased in CKD5 patients in comparison to healthy controls, whereas adhesion to a membrane coated with collagen and epinephrine was unchanged. 32 Regarding secretion, granular content and TXA 2 generation, eight out of 15 studies found the levels of CKD platelets to be comparable to those of healthy platelets, 27,33,40,57,62,63,66,68,69 whereas others reported a decreased level of serotonin secretion, ADP/ATP granular content, and TXA 2 generation.…”
