Mean Platelet Volume in Heterozygous Beta Thalassaemia
Acta Haematologica, 2017 <b><i>Background/Aim:</i></b> It is not known why cerebrovascular and cardiovascular ischaemic events are less frequently observed in heterozygous beta thalassaemia (HBT) patients than in the general population. However, we previously reported that serum levels of some platelet function markers, i.e.

Mean platelet volume/platelet count ratio in hepatocellular carcinoma
Platelets, 2012 Mean platelet volume (MPV) has been actively investigated in liver disease such as steatosis, cirrhosis and hepatitis. Recently, MPV/platelet count (PC) ratio has been proposed as a predictor of long-term mortality after myocardial infarction. As PC is known to be decreased in various liver diseases such as cirrhosis, hepatosplenomegaly and malignancy,
