She also complains of shortness of breath during her yoga class. She denies fevers, cough, rhinorrhea, or changes in appetite or bowel and bladder habits. She is generally healthy except for an occasional migraine, which is relieved by acetaminophen. For the last month, she has been having more frequent migraine attacks and was started on prophylactic aspirin. The vital signs include: pulse 102min, respirations 18min, and blood pressure 13084 mm Hg. Her blood pressure on previous visits has been 11076 mm Hg, 12078 mm Hg, and 11480 mm Hg. The physical examination is otherwise unremarkable. Stool for occult blood is positive. In addition to a low hemoglobin concentration, which other laboratory finding is expected in this patient?? A: Decreased platelet count, B: Prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time aPTT, C: Elevated D-dimer, D: Prolonged prothrombin time PT, E: Prolonged bleeding time,  <response>: This is a question about a 38-year-old woman with progressive weakness, pallor, shortness of breath, and more frequent migraines. She has a positive stool occult blood test. The question asks about expected laboratory findings in addition to low hemoglobin concentration. The symptoms of weakness, pallor, shortness of breath, and positive occult blood indicate she likely has anemia causing her symptoms. The increased migraines and recent start of aspirin therapy suggest a possible contribution from aspirin interfering with platelet function. The answer choices include platelet count and coagulation tests. Anemia would not directly cause platelet or coagulation abnormalities. However, aspirin can inhibit platelet function and prolong bleeding time. Therefore, the expected finding in addition to anemia would be a prolonged bleeding time due to the effects of aspirin.E: Prolonged bleeding time
