Abstract:
Objective To explore the factors predicting the reliability of platelet-impedance(PLT-I)re-sults through a retrospective analysis of non-aggregated samples with abnormal platelet histograms.Methods A total of 322 samples with abnormal platelet histograms were collected from the Sysmex XN9000 automatic hematology analyzer,all of which showed no platelet aggregation as determined by the DI-60 auto-matic digital image analysis system.Using the platelet count fluorescent(PLT-F)results as a standard,the absolute and relative deviations of PLT-I results were calculated,and the parameters of samples with devia-tions within and outside the allowable range were analyzed.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify potential factors associated with deviations of PLT-I from PLT-F beyond the allowable range.The receiver op-erating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of these potential factors for devi-ations beyond the allowable range.Results The deviations of PLT-I from PLT-F were within the allowable range in 279 cases(86.65％)and outside the allowable range in 43 cases(13.35％).Comparisons between the two groups revealed statistically significant differences in mean red blood cell valume(MCV),red blood cell distribution width-cuefficient of variation(RDW-SD),DI-60 red cell fragments,platelet distribution width(PDW),and DI-60 large platelet ratio(P＜0.05).Logistic regression indicated that DI-60 red cell fragments and DI-60 large platelet ratio were independent potential factors for deviations of PLT-I from PLT-F beyond the allowable range(P＜0.05).The cut off values for predicting deviations beyond the allowable range were 1.75 for DI-60 red cell fragments and 66％for DI-60 large platelet ratio.The area under the curve(AUC)for the combined diagnosis of the two factors was 0.813,with a sensitivity of 88.4％and a specificity of 66.3％,indicating a higher predictive value than individual factors(P＜0.05).Conclusion When platelet histograms are abnormal,DI-60 large platelet ratio and DI-60 red cell fragments are independent potential factors predic-ting the reliability of PLT-I results,and their combination has a high predictive value.
