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

, 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

Association of platelet-to-white blood cell ratio and platelet-to-neutrophil ratio with the risk of fatal stroke occurrence in older Chinese

, 2022
Abstract Background White blood cell (WBC) and neutrophil (NEUT) counts, which are commonly inflammatory markers, have been related to an increased risk of fatal stroke. However, it is unclear whether platelet-to-white blood cell ratio (PWR) and platelet-to-neutrophil ratio (PNR) are related to the risk of fatal stroke in elderly populations ...

Relationship Between Platelet to White Blood Cell Ratio and 30-Day Prognosis of Patients with Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure

Hepatitis Monthly, 2021
Background: Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is always associated with thrombocytopenia or leukocytosis. Therefor the platelet to white blood cell ratio (PWR) in ACLF patients is always reduced. Objectives: Here, we assessed the relationship between PWR and prognosis in ACLF patients.
