Although usually attributed to thrombocytopenia, some patients with relatively high platelet counts and normal coagulation tests have hemorrhagic phenomena. To investigate whether perturbed platelet function could explain these bleeding

We investigated 16 patients with Fabry's disease (eight hemizygous men and eight heterozygous women) in one family. We used constant current perception threshold (CPT) testing, which evaluated three major sensory nerve fiber populations, to assess subjective complaints of pain and paresthesias. We a
Fabry disease is an X-linked recessive disorder resulting in the deposition of globotriaosylceramide in numerous cell types including vascular endothelial cells. Because this disease is associated with vascular injury and a high recurrence rate of thrombotic events, measurements of factors regulatin
