Data shown for 10 NS patients and 3 NSML patients, with range of raw values for healthy controls.

MPV, mean platelet volume.

*

Whole-blood platelet count and MPV were measured by using a HORIBA ABX Micros 60 analyzer (n = 22 mice of each genotype).

PR, aPTT ratio, fibrinogen concentration and VWF parameters were measured as described in “Methods.”
