Platelet Distribution Width and Mean Platelet Volume in Idiopathic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Heart, Lung and Circulation, 2015Previous studies have demonstrated that platelet activation occurs in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) are two markers of platelet activation, and have recently been recognised as risk predictors of cardiovascular diseases.

Platelet distribution width in young patients with chronic venous insufficiency
Vascular, 2021Objective 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 (CBC) tests in young individuals with or ...

Platelet distribution width as a marker for predicting lupus nephritis
International Immunopharmacology, 2020Lupus nephritis (LN) is an important manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The aim of this study was to investigate the predictive value of platelet distribution width (PDW) in LN.A retrospective study involving 212 SLE patients and 201 healthy controls were performed.

Mean platelet volume and platelet distribution width can be related to bone mineralization
Osteoporosis International, 2014Platelets functions are related to bone resorption and formation. The present study aimed at studying the association between platelet function and bone mineralization. We showed that mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) levels in osteoporosis patients increased.

Elevated platelet distribution width predicts poor prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma
Cancer Biomarkers, 2019BACKGROUND: Previous studies have demonstrated that platelets play an important role in growth, invasion, and angiogenesis of a variety of tumors. Nevertheless, the prognostic role of platelet indices in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been explored.

New Prognostic Parameter of West Nile Virus: Platelet Distribution Width
Vector-Borne and Zoonotic DiseasesBackground: West Nile virus (WNV) infection is a viral disease caused by arboviruses. It can cause epidemics of febrile diseases and meningoencephalitis, especially at the end of the summer season. In this study, we aimed to determine the risk factors of WNV encephalitis with a case-control study of the patients followed in our clinic.
