“…23 Elevated MPV values have also been reported to correlate with a higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome. 24 In the present investigation, positive correlations were found between MPV and the prevalence of hyperlipidemia. Furthermore, inflammation may induce platelet activation, which increases MPV.…”

“…9,10 This alteration can be detected by platelets indices such as platelet count and platelet volume in relation with increasing fasting glucose levels. 4,5 In the current study large sample comprising of 3471 were taken into consideration and ADA criteria of impaired fasting glucose (IFG) was adopted and values of PC as well as MPV were studied. As per this criteria threshold levels for IFG was lowered up to 100-125 mg/dl of fasting plasma glucose in 2003 for better prediction of future diabetes incidence.…”
