Prognostic Values of Platelet Distribution Width and Platelet Distribution Width-to-Platelet Ratio in Severe Burns. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background: Platelet distribution width (PDW) and PDW-to-platelet ratio (PPR) have been proven to be good prognostic indicators for many diseases. However, their prognostic values in severe burns have not been reported.

Platelet Distribution Width and Mortality in Hemodialysis Patients. [PDF]
Objectives. The association between platelet distribution width (PDW) and mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients has received little attention. Methods. We retrospectively enrolled HD patients in a single center from January 1, 2008, to December 30, 2011.

Elevated Platelet Distribution Width Predicts Poor Prognosis in Gallbladder Carcinoma. [PDF]
Previous studies have demonstrated that platelet distribution width (PDW) is a reliable predictor of prognosis of a variety of tumors. Nevertheless, the prognostic value of PDW in gallbladder carcinoma (GBC) remains unknown. We aimed to explore the correlation between PDW and prognosis in patients with GBC.A total of 303 patients with GBC who underwent

Diagnostic value of red blood cell distribution width, platelet distribution width, and red blood cell distribution width to platelet ratio in children with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundTo investigate whether red blood cell distribution width (RDW), platelet distribution width (PDW), and red blood cell distribution width to platelet ratio (RPR) can serve as biomarkers to distinguish hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) from sepsis in children.MethodsThis is a retrospective study, involving 71 HLH patients, 105 ...

Prognosis of COVID-19: Red Cell Distribution Width, Platelet Distribution Width, and C-Reactive Protein [PDF]
Introduction Cytokine storm is central in the pathobiology of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The pro-inflammatory state and hypoxia disrupt erythropoiesis leading to alterations in red cell distribution width (RDW) and hematocrit. Platelet production increases alongside its destruction, inviting newly formed immature platelets into the ...

Mean Platelet Volume and Platelet Volume Distribution Width in Canine Parvoviral Enteritis [PDF]
Bacterial translocation from the damaged intestinal tract, reported in canine parvoviral (CPV) enteritis, is thought to be responsible for the systemic inflammatory response resulting from coliform septicemia, which could ultimately progress to septic shock and death.

Predictive Value of Red Blood Cell Distribution Width, Mean Platelet Volume and Platelet Distribution Width in Children with Acute Appendicitis [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Acute appendicitis in pediatric patients is one of the most common surgical emergencies, but the early diagnosis still remains challenging. The aim of this study was to determine the predictive value of Red blood cell distribution width (RDW), Mean platelet volume (MPV) and Platelet distribution width (PDW) in children with ...

Platelet distribution width for differential diagnosis of thrombocytosis [PDF]
AbstractDifferential diagnosis of thrombocytosis is not always obvious. The routine clinical chemistry laboratory classically provides only limited help in distinguishing between reactive thrombocytosis (RT) and autonomous thrombocytosis, where platelet production escapes normal regulatory processes, and which is seen in myeloproliferative diseases ...

The red distribution width and the platelet distribution width as prognostic predictors in gastric cancer [PDF]
Increasing attention is focused on the relationship of inflammation biomarkers with malignant tumors. The purpose of the present study was to detect whether the preoperative the red distribution width (RDW) and the platelet distribution width (PDW) can be used to distinguish patients with gastric cancer (GC) or early stage GC from the healthy controls ...
