so i've been collecting some data about platelet in liver cirrhosis according to Child-Pugh. I've collected 150 platelet data from medical record diagnosed with liver cirrhosis (no other concomitant disease). Surprisingly, i found the mean platelet were increase with Child-Pugh stage A, B and C. It's strange isn't it? I think it's supposed to be decreased the more cirrhosis progress.
So, the question is, what is the logical and scientific reason for this?
Thanks
