Mean Platelet Volume and the Ratio of Mean Platelet Volume/Platelet Count in Acute Rheumatic Fever

Journal of Pediatric Research, 2021
Aim:Acute rheumatic fever (ARF) is an endemic disease especially in developing countries. Due to an autoimmune response to group B streptococcus throat infection, ARF develops in susceptible children. Mean platelet volume (MPV) reflects the platelet size

Mean platelet volume and mean platelet volume to platelet count ratio as predictors of severity and mortality in sepsis.

PLoS ONE, 2022
IntroductionSepsis is a public health problem due to its high prevalence and mortality. Mean platelet volume (MPV), a biomarker reported in routine blood counts, has been investigated and shows promise for determining fatal outcomes in septic patients ...

Mean Platelet Volume and Platelet Volume Distribution Width in Canine Parvoviral Enteritis

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
Bacterial translocation from the damaged intestinal tract, reported in canine parvoviral (CPV) enteritis, is thought to be responsible for the systemic inflammatory response resulting from coliform septicemia, which could ultimately progress to septic ...

Feasibility of a mean platelet volume standard: an international council for standardization in hematology (ICSH) inter-laboratory study

Platelets, 2022
We have evaluated a commercial-fixed porcine platelet preparation (with and without added fixed human red blood cells (RBC)) for the potential standardization of mean platelet volume (MPV) measurements.

Relationship Between Retinopathy and Mean Platelet Volume

Journal of Contemporary Medicine, 2022
OBJECTIVE: Platelet activation is thought to play a role in the angiogenesis process involved in the pathophysiology of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). We planned this study to investigate whether the mean platelet volume (MPV), used to assess platelet
