Could mean platelet volume predict developing of bronchopulmonary dysplasia in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome?
Introduction: some studies have suggested correlation between MPV index and inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis in adults. Though bronchopulmonary dysplasia is also an inflammatory disease which develops in preterm neonates with Respiratory distress syndrome, we decided to study the possible correlation between the mean platelet volume (MPV) and the occurrence of bronchopulmonary...
متن کاملNintedanib in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and preserved lung volume
RATIONALE There is no consensus as to when treatment for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) should be initiated. Some physicians prefer not to treat patients with preserved lung volume. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether patients with IPF and preserved lung volume receive the same benefit from nintedanib as patients with more impaired lung volume. METHODS Post hoc subgroup analyses of pooled...
متن کاملPlatelet volume indices in patients with varicocele
OBJECTIVE This study sought to evaluate platelet volume indices (mean platelet volume [MPV], platelet distribution width [PDW], and platelet large cell ratio [P-LCR]) in varicocele patients, and compare it with platelet volume parameters in healthy controls. METHODS This cross-sectional study involved 2 groups: group 1 included 51 varicocele subjects and group 2 consisted of 50 healthy contro...
متن کاملInhaled smoke volume, puffing indices and carbon monoxide uptake in asymptomatic cigarette smokers.
Nine asymptomatic smokers each smoked one cigarette of their usual brand on four separate occasions. The inhaled smoke volume was measured by tracing the smoke with the inert gas 81Krm. Puffing indices were recorded by using an electronic smoking analyser and flowhead/cigarette holder. The expired air carbon monoxide concentration was measured immediately before and within 5 min of finishing sm...
متن کاملMorbidity and mortality after pneumonectomy in smokers with NSCLC
OBJECTIVE Perioperative morbidity and mortality in patients receiving pneumonectomy because of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains quite high. The aim of this study is to identify risk factors to minimize perioperative mortality and morbidity. PATIENTS AND METHOD The results of 156 Patients who received pneumonectomy between 1995 and 2004 were reviewed retrospectively. All patients had...
