Platelet activation plays a pivotal role in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We investigated
the relationship between platelet distribution width (PDW) and severity of coronary artery …

It has been postulated that large platelets may be an indicator of platelet activation, and thus
be related to the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD). Platelet distribution width (PDW) …

Aim: We investigated the association between platelet indices and the severity of coronary
artery disease (CAD) in patients with ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) …

Platelets play a central role in the pathophysiology of coronary artery disease (CAD).
Increased mean platelet volume (MPV) is an indicator of platelet function and associated …

Background Platelets with high hemostatic activity play an important role in the
pathophysiology of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and mean platelet volume (MPV) has …

The aim of the current study was to investigate whether the combination between mean
platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) may improve the prognostic …

Background The aim of the present study was to perform a preliminary evaluation of the
potential association between platelet distribution width (PDW) and frequency of major …

Background: Ischaemic heart disease is mainly caused by atherosclerosis and its
complications. Platelets and their activity have an important role in initiation of …

We investigated 2 hypotheses:(1) a relationship between platelet indices and stable
coronary artery disease (CAD) and acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction …

To understand the mechanisms linking platelets to the risk of coronary artery disease, we
investigated the relation between coronary angiographic morphology and platelet indexes …
