However, two components of the PLASMIC score, mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and international normalized ratio (INR), showed non-significant differences between TTP and non-TTP patients in previous validations. Here, we validate the PLASMIC score and aim to modify it by adjusting the criteria of MCV and INR.enADAMTS13; PLASMIC score; international normalized ratio; mean corpuscular volume; thrombocytopenic purpura[SDGs]SDG3[SDGs]SDG17A validation and modification of PLASMIC score by adjusting the criteria of mean corpuscular volume and international normalized ratiojournal article10.1002/jca.22068373259192-s2.0-85161994729https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85161994729
