Relationship of mean platelet volume to an acute ischemic stroke

Abstract

Aim: Platelet activation has a major role to play in the development of ischemic cerebrovascular disease. Mean platelet volume (MPV) is reported to be a good indicator of platelet activity. In this study, we aimed to determine the position of MPV in the pathogenesis of ischemic strokes. Materials and Methods: This study compared MPV values in 110 patients who were hospitalized with the diagnosis of the first and recurrent stroke with the risk factors and stroke subtypes, and 58 control patients who were age and sex matched to patients. MPV parameters are measured in the acute period of the stroke and 24 hours later. We investigated the relationship between the mean platelet volume and risk factors, stroke subtypes, haematological and biochemical parameters, white blood cell, platelet, cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL cholesterol, glucose, erythrocyte sedimentation ratio (ESR), partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), and C-reactive protein (CRP). Results: The MPV parameter was found to be higher in the case group than the control group (p
