متن کاملMean Platelet Volume and Immature Platelet Fraction in Autoimmune Disorders
Mean platelet volume (MPV), measured using automated blood analysers, has been appraised as a potential biomarker in cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, and cancer. The test, a useful tool in differentiation of thrombocytopenic states, has now been carried out for autoimmune disorders, but data are yet scarce. Controversial results have been obtained in systemic and organ-specific autoim...
متن کاملMean platelet volume as an inexpensive bio-marker of endometriosis
Objective: Increased platelet activation has also been suggested to play a pivotal role in the development and progression of inflammation. Recently, mean platelet volume (MPV) has been investigated as a simple inflammatory marker in several diseases and it was found that MPV can be used as a marker of inflammatory disease. Therefore this study was designed to investigate and compare the values...
متن کاملMean Platelet Volume as a Negative Marker of Inflammation in Children with Rotavirus Gastroenteritis
OBJECTIVE Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a determinant of inflammation. The aim of the present study was to investigate the MPV levels in children with rotavirus gastroenteritis and to evaluate the possible relationship between MPV and severity of gastroenteritis. METHODS Children diagnosed with acute rotavirus gastroenteritis and healthy controls were enrolled in this study. Patients were cla...
متن کاملNo associations exist between mean platelet volume or platelet distribution width and thyroid function in Chinese
Mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) are morphometric indices of size distribution and variability of platelet. We aimed to explore the associations between MPV or PDW and thyroid function in a large Chinese cohort.This was a cross-sectional study with a recruitment of 13,622 self-reported healthy Chinese (8424 males, 5198 females). Clinical data of the participants ...
