Mean platelet volume may represent a predictive parameter for overall vascular mortality and ischemic heart disease.
OBJECTIVE An increased mean platelet volume (MPV), as an indicator of larger, more reactive platelets resulting from an increased platelet turnover, may represent a risk factor for overall vascular mortality, including myocardial infarction. We intended to identify patients at higher risk of dying from vascular disease in a large, hospital-based cohort. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 206 554 ...
متن کاملMean platelet volume in patients with ischemic heart disease: meta-analysis of diagnostic studies.
It is now widely acknowledged that larger platelets are biologically more active and express a greater prothrombotic potential, but there is no definitive evidence on the diagnostic accuracy role of mean platelet volume (MPV) in patients with ischemic heart disease. We performed an electronic search for articles that have assessed the diagnostic accuracy of MPV in patients admitted at the emerg...
متن کاملMean platelet volume: a novel predictive marker for mortality in patients with acute mesenteric ischemia?
Dear Editor, We read the article entitled “Mean Platelet Volume as a potential prognostic marker in patients with acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI)-retrospective study” by Altintoprak et al with interest [1]. The authors concluded that Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) values at presentation were higher among non-survivors than survivors and might be beneficial in predicting patients with poor prognosis...
