Relationship between mean platelet volume, platelet distribution width, plateletcrit and varicocele [PDF]
Increases in platelet count and platelet indices such as mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (RDW) and plateletcrit (PCT) have been reported in a wide range of pathological settings. The aetiology of varicocele, a vascular disease, is poorly defined.

Platelet distribution width in young patients with chronic venous insufficiency
Objective Platelet distribution width (PDW) has been reported in a wide range of pathological settings. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between PDW and lower extremity chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) by comparing the levels of PDW and other parameters derived from complete blood count (

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.

The Usefulness of Platelet Distribution Width and Platelet Distribution Width to Lymphocyte Ratio in Predicting Severity and Outcomes in Patients with Snakebite [PDF]
Introduction Tissue damage, inflammatory response, and hematologic abnormalities may occur in snakebite envenomation. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive ability of platelet distribution width (PDW) and platelet distribution width to lymphocyte ratio (PDWLR) in the severity and outcome of envenomation in patients with snakebites in the ...

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 ...
