The Comparative and Usefulness of Platelet Distribution Width in Acute Coronary Syndrome

Indonesian Biomedical Journal, 2016
BACKGROUND: Identifying risk factors for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is important for both diagnostic and prognostic purposes. Abnormal platelet parameters, mainly platelet count (PC), mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW ...

Assessment of Optimal T1/T2‐Weighted Combinations for Myelin Sensitivity: Effects of Echo Time and Exponents

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose The aim of this study is to improve the traditional T1‐weighted (T1w) over T2‐weighted (T2w) ratio as a proxy for myelin by investigating the optimal T2w TE and combination of exponent‐weighted T1w and T2w images (T1wx1/T2wx2$$ \mathrm{T}1{\mathrm{w}}^{x_1}/\mathrm{T}2{\mathrm{w}}^{x_2} $$).

Platelet Distribution Width on Admission Predicts In-Stent Restenosis in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Treated with Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Chinese Medical Journal, 2018
Background: It is known that there is a definite association between platelet distribution width (PDW) and poor prognosis in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Platelet‐Activating Factor Pathway in Women With Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease and Obesity

Obesity, EarlyView.
Increased hepatic PAFR expression in MASLD is associated with histological disease severity and may contribute to progression through platelet activation, whereas circulating Lp‐PLA2 levels lack discriminatory value as a noninvasive biomarker. ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to investigate the platelet‐activating factor (PAF) pathway in obesity ...

Personal resource gains: Effective coping builds academic buoyancy, and academic buoyancy builds achievement

British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Academic buoyancy is conceptualized as students' capacity to cope with academic challenges. Studies that examine how academic buoyancy and coping responses are reciprocally related, or that include relations with achievement, are lacking.

Sustained glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist treatment improves glycemic control and reduces all‐cause mortality compared to dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 inhibitors: A real‐world target trial emulation in type 2 diabetes

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Glucagon‐like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) improve glycemic outcomes in people with type 2 diabetes, but their generalizability to routine clinical practice remains uncertain. Aim To evaluate the real‐world effectiveness of sustained GLP‐1 RA use on haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) over 1 to 4.5 years, using dipeptidyl peptidase 4

Platelet distribution width correlates with prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer

Scientific Reports, 2017
Platelets play a multifaceted role in cancer progression and metastasis. Mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) are commonly used platelet parameters from routine blood test.

Mean platelet volume and platelet distribution width serve as prognostic biomarkers in skull base chordoma: a retrospective study

BMC Cancer, 2020
Background Increasing studies have demonstrated that activated platelets play an essential role in tumour progression. However, the level and prognostic role of platelet indices in chordoma patients remain unclear.

Prognostic significance of the combination of preoperative red cell distribution width and platelet distribution width in patients with gastric cancer

BMC Cancer, 2021
Background Platelet distribution width (PDW) and red cell distribution width (RDW) are readily obtainable data, and are reportedly useful as prognostic indicators in some cancers.
