Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Thrombocytosis can increase the risk of blood clots?

Unclear. Several sources indicate that primary or clonal thrombocytosis (essential thrombocythemia, polycythemia vera) carries an increased risk of thrombosis, and one case report links essential thrombocytosis to portal vein thrombosis. None of the placed items establishes that thrombocytosis generally, including reactive forms, increases clot risk.
