Overview
Differentiating [disease name] from other diseases on the basis of [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3]
On the basis [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3], [disease name] must be differentiated from disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) , thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP),systemic vasculitis , [disease 4], [disease 5], and [disease 6].
