Abstract
A lower than normal platelet count is a hallmark of the acquired autoimmune disease immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). This autoimmune disease is characterized by low platelet counts, purpura, and hemorrhagic episodes caused by antiplatelet autoantibodies. Additionally, it inhibits the production of platelets, which can be affected by drugs, infections, cancer, or other autoimmune disorders. Immune thrombocytopenia purpura can be classified into two types: acute and chronic. The acute type, which affects both sexes and typically manifests in childhood, may be brought on by a viral infection, Conversely, the chronic form, more common in women than in males, can affect adults of any gender and is not always associated with a virus infection . Immune thrombocytopenic purpura is a heterogeneous disease with varying biological behavior in terms of clinical outcome and response to treatment ,Better results are shown in children with the condition, but worse results are seen in adults.
