Background The red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is a rather simple measure of red
blood cell (RBC) size heterogeneity (ie, anisocytosis), which is easily calculated by dividing …

The red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is an index of the heterogeneity of circulating red
blood cell size, which along with other standard complete blood count (CBC) parameters are …

Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is a measure of red blood cell volume variations
(anisocytosis) and is reported as part of a standard complete blood count. In recent years …

Background Red cell distribution width (RDW), a routine component of the complete blood
count (CBC), measures variation in the size of circulating erythrocytes. It has been …

Objective: The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a new predictor for cardiovascular risk
and mortality. The SYNTAX score is an angiographic tool used in grading the complexity of …

Background Empyema is an increasingly frequent clinical problem worldwide, and has
substantial morbidity and mortality. Our objectives were to identify the clinical, surgical and …

Objectives Red blood cell distribution width (RDW), a marker of variation in the size of the
circulating red blood cells, was evaluated in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial …

Increased red blood cell distribution width (RDW) has been associated with adverse
outcomes in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We evaluated the relationship between RDW …

Major advances in coronary interventional techniques and pharmacotherapy as well as the
use of drug-eluting stents (DESs) have considerably reduced the risk of in-stent restenosis …

Platelet activation and inflammation are the related mechanisms of pathogenesis in
obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). Mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet …
