The prognostic impact of the platelet distribution width-to-platelet count ratio in patients with breast cancer. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Activated platelets promote tumor cell growth, angiogenesis, and invasion. Platelet activity can be inferred by platelet volume indices (PVIs), which include platelet distribution width (PDW), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width-to ...

Association of Adiposity Indices with Platelet Distribution Width and Mean Platelet Volume in Chinese Adults. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Hypoxia is a prominent characteristic of inflammatory tissue lesions. It can affect platelet function. While mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) are sample platelet indices, they may reflect subcinical platelet activation. To

Evaluation of platelet distribution width in hypertension with hyperhomocysteinemia
Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2020 An increased platelet distribution width (PDW) value has been found in various cardiovascular diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between the PDW and hypertension with hyperhomocysteinemia in an elderly cohort.
