“…Platelet number and immature platelets, probably due to their higher reactivity [28], have been shown to be of prognostic value in different clinical scenarios such as ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction [31], non STEMI, unstable angina [21] and stable coronary artery disease [36]. Moreover, significantly elevated levels of platelet-monocyte aggregates have been found in patients with acute myocardial Infarction and unstable angina; observation again compatible with a hyper-reactive state in both cells [20].…”

“…6 By meta-analysis of 8 studies comprising 39,324 patients with ACS, these authors show that a higher platelet count at baseline increases the relative risks of mortality and major cardiac adverse events (MACE) during the short and long term. Moreover, they found a U-shaped relationship between platelet count and the risk of mortality and MACE.…”
