Neutrophil granulocytes and platelets are key players in wound healing and in combination with their secreted growth factors/cytokines can facilitate tissue regeneration and the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis). In a recent Kitamura Y. et al. Study, they showed a method for direct estimation of platelet counts in the PRF. These authors used a recombinant t-PA, through a digestion method. They showed that t-PA is powerful enough to be able to count the dispersed platelets aggregated in insoluble fibrin matrices enriched with platelets.

Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the result of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) diagnosis using α-L-fucosidase (AFU) and determine the optimal scale for the threshold. Methods: A comprehensive literature search of PubMed, EMbase, Medline, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar was conducted. Information regarding the threshold, sensitivity, and specificity of AFU for diagnosing HCC was extracted. Corresponding Youden’s indices were derived, and ROC values were calculated using the meta-analyses method. Results: Sixteen studies were included in this study.
