Thrombocytopenia Associated with Linezolid Therapy
Abstract
We evaluated the incidence and clinical characteristics of linezolid-induced thrombocytopenia in 19 patients who were treated with linezolid. Overall, thrombocytopenia (platelet count, <100,000 platelets/mm(3)) was observed in 32% of patients who received linezolid for >10 days; gastrointestinal bleeding was observed in 1 patient and 4 patients required platelet transfusions. These data suggest that even patients who are not considered to be at risk for development of thrombocytopenia should be monitored closely if linezolid therapy is continued for >10 days.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
