The answer is the fourth one (Liver): Liver.

Explanation:

  • Heart: Diseases of the heart, such as heart failure or coronary artery disease, do not typically cause thrombocytopenia as a direct side effect.
  • Brain: Brain diseases, including strokes or brain tumors, are not commonly associated with thrombocytopenia.
  • Kidney: While kidney diseases can have various hematological effects, they are not primarily known for causing thrombocytopenia.
  • Liver: Liver diseases, such as cirrhosis or hepatitis, can lead to thrombocytopenia. This is because the liver produces thrombopoietin, a hormone that regulates platelet production. Liver dysfunction can impair this process, leading to a reduced platelet count.
  • Pancreas: Pancreatic diseases, such as pancreatitis or pancreatic cancer, do not typically cause thrombocytopenia directly.

Summary: Liver disease is the organ disease that has a side effect of thrombocytopenia.
