Treating ID as a
Increased platelet destruction is central in the pathogenesis of immune thrombocytopenia. However, impaired platelet production is also relevant and its significance underlies the rationale for treatment with thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RAs). Previous studies have associated enhanced complement activation with increased disease severity. Additionally, treatment refractoriness has been deIncreased platelet destruction is central in the pathogenesis of immune thrombocytopenia.

With the growth of cities more issues relating to the environment, economy and health have emerged. The climate in the city affects how the city is structured and how the city space is used. In return the city also has an effect on the climate by modifying the regional climate conditions on a large scale. This has led to an increase in air temperature in the urban areas causing an urban heat islanGrowth of cities has caused the climate in them to change making urban areas warmer than the surrounding rural areas. This phenomenon is called an urban heat island. Mitigation tactics to counter the heating of the urban areas vary from changing the thermal properties of the surface materials to adding vegetation and water bodies to the urban scene. This study aims to investigate the impact green
