Mild thrombocytopenia indicating maternal organ damage in pre‐eclampsia: a cross‐sectional study

Table 4 Estimated relative risk of mild and severe thrombocytopenia for severe hypertension, utero-placental dysfunction, and maternal organ damage except thrombocytopenia

	eRR	95 % CI	p value
Severe hypertension
Age^a	1.02	0.93–1.11	0.689
Mild thrombocytopenia^b	1.06	0.86–1.30	0.597
Severe thrombocytopenia^b	0.81	0.55–1.18	0.273
Utero-placental dysfunction
Age^a	1.03	0.86–1.23	0.734
Mild thrombocytopenia^b	1.16	0.74–1.82	0.512
Severe thrombocytopenia^b	1.01	0.52–1.96	0.977
Maternal organ damage except thrombocytopenia
Age^a	0.99	0.79–1.25	0.949
Mild thrombocytopenia^b	0.97	0.41–2.26	0.939
Severe thrombocytopenia^b	4.46	2.59–7.68	< 0.001

^a: Estimated relative risk of 5 years increase in age
^b: Reference is normal platelet count (> 100 × 10⁹/L)
Mild thrombocytopenia, platelet count < 150 × 10⁹/L and ≥ 100 × 10⁹/L; severe thrombocytopenia, platelet count < 100 × 10⁹/L
