Background Infective endocarditis (IE) continues to be associated with great challenges.
Embolic events (EE) are frequent and life‐threatening complications in IE patients. It remains …

Objectives Prediction of embolic events (EEs) in infective endocarditis (IE) could inform
clinical decisions, such as surgical timing. We conducted a systematic review to more …

Aim To investigate the mean platelet volume (MPV) in asymptomatic children infected with
COVID‐19. Methods The study included 55 children infected with COVID‐19 and 60 healthy …

Background Infective endocarditis (IE) is a disease that poses a serious health risk. It is
important to identify high-risk patients early in the course of their treatment. In the current …

Background: Infective endocarditis (IE) is associated with increased neutrophil and reduced
platelet counts. We assessed the relationship between the neutrophil-to-platelet ratio (NPR) …

Aim: We aimed to examine the association between baseline mean platelet volume/platelet
count ratio (MPR) and all-cause mortality in patients with infective endocarditis (IE). Patients …

Introduction: This study aims to assess the association between mean platelet volume (MPV)
and poor outcome in patients with COVID-19. Methods: We performed a comprehensive …

Objectives To characterize the plasmatic profile of cell-derived microvesicles (MVs) at
diagnosis and during the treatment of patients with infective endocarditis (IE). Methods …

Surgical treatment is the most effective method to improve the prognosis of type A acute
aortic dissection (TAAAD) patients. Thus, this investigation aimed to evaluate the value of …

Objective: Infective endocarditis (IE) is a rare disease with a high mortality. Therefore,
prognostic markers can play an important role in the follow-up. In this study, we investigated …
