Our goal for continuing to update our database is to provide an accessible resource (moon.ouhsc.edu/jgeorge) for all reports of drug-induced thrombocytopenia, describing the level of evidence for a causal role for each drug as well as clinical outcomes (1). This letter describes our continuing systematic review for the period from 1 January 2000 to 1 August 2002.In addition to the review of individual-patient data, current publications required additional methods to assess drug-induced thrombocytopenia presented only as group data ...References1.
