Mean Platelet Volume, A Possible New Marker İn Acute Peritonitis?

Abstract

MPV (mean platelet volume) is one of the determinants of the platelet function which is situated in the routine complete blood count tests and was shown to be inversely correlated with inflammation. We aimed to evaluate MPV values in patients with peritoneal dialysis and in acute peritonitis attacks. 37 patients with PD and 42 healthy subjects were included in the study. 42 peritonitis attacks of the patients were recorded. C reactive protein (CRP) levels and complete blood count tests were analyzed. Mean MPV values were significantly higher in patients with PD in the stable period compared with the control group (p

Mean Platelet Volume, A Possible New Marker İn Acute Peritonitis?

Abstract

MPV (ortalama trombosit hacmi) trombosit fonksiyonu belirteçlerinden biridir ve rutin tam kan sayımı testlerinde yer alır. İnflamasyon ile aralarında negatif korelasyon olduğu gösterilmiştir. Biz de periton diyalizi (PD) hastalarında ve akut peritonit ataklarında MPV değerlerinde değişim olup olmadığını değerlendirmeyi amaçladık. 37 periton diyalizi hastası ve 42 sağlıklı birey çalışmaya dahil edildi. Hastaların geçirdiği toplam 42 peritonit atağı, C reaktif protein (CRP) düzeyleri ve tam kan sayımı testleri kaydedildi. Ortalama MPV değerleri kontrol grubu ile karşılaştırıldığında PD hastalarında anlamlı derecede yüksek bulundu (p
