Increased 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 کاملRenal artery stenosis and mean platelet volume
OBJECTIVE Increased mean platelet volume (MPV) has been reported in various atherosclerotic diseases. The aim of our study was to investigate the relationship between the atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) and various hematological parameters including MPV. METHODS This study was performed with a retrospective review of the angiographic images of patients who underwent renal angiogr...
متن کاملLower than normal mean platelet volume is associated with reduced extent of coronary artery disease.
BACKGROUND Extent of atherosclerotic coronary artery disease in patients with stable angina has important prognostic and therapeutic implications. In current models of plaque evolution, thrombocytes play an important role in plaque growth. Mean platelet volume is a readily obtainable marker that was shown to correlate with platelet aggregability in vitro and increased values were demonstrated a...
متن کاملMean Platelet Volume May Be Associated with Extent of Coronary Artery Disease
We read with interest the article by Guvenç et al1. MPV is a widely used laboratory marker associated with platelet function based on inflammatory conditions2. Recently, increased levels of MPV were demonstrated in atrial fibrillation3, cerebrovascular disease, peripheral artery disease, stroke, thyroid and inflammatory rheumatic diseases4. In conclusion, not only MPV but also red cell distribu...
متن کاملIs mean platelet volume associated with the angiographic severity of coronary artery disease?
BACKGROUND Platelet activation and aggregation play key roles both in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and in the developmentof acute thrombotic events. Platelet volume is a marker of platelet activation and function, and is measured usingmean platelet volume (MPV). AIM To determine the relationship between MPV and angiographic Gensini and SYNTAX scores, which give information about the se...
