Objective. Since red cell distribution width (RDW) has been associated with cardiovascular
(CV) disease and inflammation in several conditions, the main aim of this study was to …

Red blood cell distribution width (RDW), an index of variation of erythrocyte volume (ie,
anysocytosis), is conventionally included in a standard complete blood count (CBC). In brief …

Background Recently, accumulating evidence has demonstrated that RDW independently
predicts clinically important outcomes in many populations. However, the role of RDW has …

Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is a numerical measure of the variability in size of
circulating erythrocytes [1], and therefore higher RDW values reflect greater heterogeneity in …

Objectives: The goal of this study was to identify potentially novel laboratory markers of risk
in chronic heart failure patients. Background: Although a variety of prognostic markers have …

Background: Conventional cardiac markers used for the biochemical diagnosis of acute
coronary syndromes (ACS) have a high specificity but low sensitivity within 2–4 h of …

Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) reflects erythrocyte size distribution, thus
representing a reliable index of anisocytosis, widely used for the differential diagnosis of …

Higher Red Blood Cell Distribution Width (RDW or anisocytosis) predicts incident coronary
artery disease (CAD) plus all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, but its predictive value for …

Background Red blood cell distribution width (RDW), a component of an electronic complete
blood count, is a measure of heterogeneity in the size of circulating erythrocytes. In patients …

We aimed to assess the association between red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and
mortality in patients enrolled by a Geriatric Department. One hundred twenty-two patients …
