Silvia Escribano Serrat Explores A Potential Role of EASIX as a Predictor of Refractoriness and Mortality in iTTP
Silvia Escribano Serrat, Research Fellow at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, shared on LinkedIn:
”I am pleased to share this multicenter article on the potential role of EASIX as a predictor of refractoriness and mortality in iTTP.”
Immune-mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) is a severe thrombotic microangiopathy caused by profound ADAMTS13 deficiency; although caplacizumab speeds platelet recovery, about 15% of patients remain refractory and may experience persistent endothelial or microvascular injury.
This study assessed whether the Endothelial Activation and Stress Index (EASIX) can track endothelial dysfunction and predict refractoriness or mortality in iTTP.
