Objective: Cardiomyopathy (CMP) is a disorder associated with an increased risk of
thromboembolism due to blood stasis, platelet activation and altered coagulation status. In …

Stroke is the leading cause of disability worldwide. It is known that atrial fibrillation and left
atrial enlargement contribute ischemic stroke, and mean platelet volume (MPV) increases in …

The procoagulant and prothrombotic states in patients with chronic atrial fibrillation are
higher than those in patients with normal sinus rhythm. Mean platelet volume (MPV) which is …

Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained arrhythmia in clinical practice. It is important
to specify patients with a high risk of thromboembolus due to elevated procoagulant and …

Mean platelet volume (MPV), a marker of platelet activation, is a surrogate marker of platelet
function and a potential mediator of the association between inflammation and thrombosis …

Platelets are essential for progression of atherosclerotic lesions, plaque destabilization, and
thrombosis. They secrete and express many substances that are crucial mediators of …

Recently, several studies about mean platelet volume (MPV) changes in various
pathological conditions were published. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy …

INTRODUCTION: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with impaired coronary flow by means
of Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) frame count (TFC). Mean platelet volume …

Background Mean platelet volume (MPV) has been identified as an individual risk factor for
stroke and thrombosis. Concurrently, ischaemic stroke caused by nonvalvular atrial …

Background: Platelet activation appears to play an important role in thromboembolic
complications of infective endocarditis (IE). Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a potentially …
