    ABSTRACT: Key Points PEAR1 and CBL variants demonstrate time-specific genetic influences on platelet count throughout the course of pregnancy. PEAR1 and TUBB1 variants play a major role in contributing to the genetic predisposition for GT and severe GT. Visual Abstract Abstract Platelet count reduction occurs throughout pregnancy, with 5% to 12% of pregnant women being diagnosed with gestational thrombocytopenia (GT), characterized by a more marked decrease in platelet count during pregnancy. However, the underlying biological mechanism behind these phenomena remains unclear. Here, we used sequencing data from noninvasive prenatal testing of 100 186 Chinese pregnant individuals and conducted, to our knowledge, the hitherto largest-scale genome-wide association studies on platelet counts
