How to display "number of items" in a tableview?

Question

What's the best way to implement showing a number in a small circle on a UITableView row, much like is seen on the 'Inbox' row in the image below?

You can add a button in a UITableViewCell, style it and change it's text for every row inside cellForRowAtIndexPath method. You can also hide it for rows where you don't want it.
