Post-prandial analysis of fluctuations in the platelet count and platelet function in patients with the familial chylomicronemia syndrome

Figures

  Fig. 1. Hourly fluctuations of platelet values following a meal intake in FCS (HoLPL), HeLPL and normolipidemic controls. The line represents thrombocytopenia threshold. Hourly p-values compare differences in the PLC between normolipidemic controls vs the 2 other groups. In FCS, the PLC after 5 h was significantly lower than baseline (P = 0.021) which was not the case among HeLPL and controls (see text)

  Fig. 2. Relative post-prandial fluctuations (in %) 1 h after the standard meal in the platelet count in FCS (HoLPL), HeLPL and wild-type controls. FCS presented a significantly lower PLC and greater dispersion of values than HeLPL and WT controls (see text)
