Popis:	While several small studies have found that selenium deficiency is associated with low platelet counts, they lack generalizability. We used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys collected over a 12-year period. We examined the relationship between selenium quartiles and platelet count using survey-weighted linear regression models adjusting for age, sex, race, household income to poverty threshold income, highest education attainment, smoking status, red blood cell folate, and body mass index. Of the 21,764 participants, 51% were females, 23% African Americans, and 25% were >65 years of age. Mean (SD) platelet count was 243(64) 109/L and selenium was 183(32) µg/L. Women had significantly higher platelet count but lower selenium levels than men (258 vs. 227 109/L and 181 vs. 185 µg/L respectively; both P
