Beyond haemostasis, platelets have emerged as versatile effectors of the immune response.
The contribution of platelets in inflammation, tissue integrity and defence against infections …

Platelets are most important in providing cellular hemostasis but also take part in
inflammation and immune processes. Increased platelet size has been regarded as a …

Background. Neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (MLR),
platelet‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and mean platelet volume‐to‐platelet count (MPV/PC) …

Objectives: To examine platelet count and indices (mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet
distribution width (PDW)) in severe sepsis. Methods: Patients with criteria for sepsis at a first …

Introduction Platelet indices, including mean platelet volume (MPV), are readily available
blood tests, although their prognostic value in patients with septic shock has not been fully …

Background Bacteria are the main pathogens that cause sepsis. The pathogenic
mechanisms of sepsis caused by gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria are completely …

Purpose: We evaluated the mean platelet volume (MPV) to platelet ratio to determine its
significance as a prognostic marker for early mortality in critically ill patients with suspected …

We carried out a prospective observational study to evaluate whether Monocyte Distribution
Width (MDW) may play a role in identifying patients with sepsis in comparison with …

Recent data have demonstrated> 80% 1‐year survival probability after liver transplantation
(LT) for patients with severe acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF). However, longterm …

Background: Sepsis is the leading cause of death in children worldwide. Early recognition
and treatment are essential for preventing progression to lethal outcomes. CRP and …
