Increased mean platelet volume in septicaemia.
An increased mean platelet volume (MPV), measured by the Coulter counter model S plus, was found in 13 of 25 patients with proven septicaemia but in none of 25 patients with localised bacterial infection and negative blood cultures. The increase in MPV was found both in patients with normal and low platelet counts and was not related to a particular micro-organism. Patients who responded favour...
متن کاملIs mean platelet volume increased in behcet's disease with thrombosis?
Dear the Editor, We have been interested in the mean platelet volume (MPV) measured by automated cell analyzer and were studying on the correlation between MPVs and various diseases (Lee and Kim 2010a, 2010b, 2010c). In the meanwhile, we read the article by Acikgoz and colleagues on the increased MPV in Behcet’s disease (BD) with thrombotic tendency (Acikgoz et al. 2010). In this article, the a...
متن کاملIncreased mean platelet volume in patients with panic disorder
OBJECTIVE The relationship between platelet activation and psychiatric disorders has been shown in previous work. Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a measure of platelet size and a good indicator of platelet activity, which increases in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). It is known that anxiety is a considerable factor in the etiology of mortality in CVDs. The aim of the present study was to investig...
متن کاملIncreased mean platelet volume is associated with coronary artery ectasia
AIM The present study was designed to investigate mean platelet volume (MPV) values in coronary artery ectasia (CAE) patients in comparison with individuals with coronary artery disease and normal coronary angiograms. MATERIAL AND METHODS Patients with stable angina pectoris and scheduled for angiography were included in the study. Those with isolated coronary ectasia were evaluated in the co...
متن کاملAssociation between mean platelet volume and autonomic nervous system functions: Increased mean platelet volume reflects sympathetic overactivity.
BACKGROUND Increased mean platelet volume (MPV) may reflect increased platelet activation or increased numbers of large, hyperaggregable platelets, and is accepted as an independent coronary risk factor. The adrenergic system has effects on platelet activation and thrombocytopoiesis. OBJECTIVE To assess the effects of autonomic nervous system activity on MPV in patients with acute myocardial ...
