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 mean platelet volume/platelet count ratio in risk stratification of pulmonary embolism [PDF]

Medicina, 2016
Background and objective: Recently, some of the hemogram parameters were reported to predict early death in acute pulmonary embolism (PE). The aim of this study was to investigate the role of mean platelet volume (MPV) and MPV/platelet count ratio (MPV/P)

Mean platelet volume and the ratio of mean platelet volume to platelet count in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis

American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2019
Mean platelet volume (MPV) is an inflammatory marker. Recent studies have shown that there is a negative correlation between platelet count (PC) and MPV and that the ratio of these two values may be more meaningful. The aim of our study was to investigate the diagnostic value of MPV and the MPV/PC ratio in acute appendicitis.Patients who were admitted ...
