Can COVID-19 Increase Platelet in Adult Immune Thrombocytopenia During the TPO-RA Administration? A Real-World Observational Study.

This study showed that some adult ITP patients had an increase in platelet count after COVID-19 infection, and this phenomenon was strongly associated with the use of TPO-RA at the time of infection. Although no thrombotic events were observed in this study, it reminds clinicians that they should be alert to the possibility of thrombotic events in the long-term management of adult ITP patients during the COVID-19 pandemic.
