“…12 Platelets are involved in the pathogenesis of various diseases and elevated MPV has been associated with higher risk of adverse events in several disease conditions, such as acute coronary syndrome, stroke. 13,14 Higher MPV is also reported in the venous thromboembolism setting. 15,16 It has been reported to be a risk indicator for predicting the possibility of PTE in patients with unprovoked DVT.…”

“…High MPV is an independent predictor of large intracoronary thrombus burden and short-term mortality in STEMI patients (Lai et al, 2015). Also, it is associated with lower ST-segment resolution and higher prevalence of major adverse cardiac events in patients receiving thrombolytic therapy for first time STEMI (Ghaffari et al, 2015).…”

“…Apart from their effects on thrombosis, platelets are also inflammatory cells. They release several substances, including thromboxane A2, platelet factor 4, P-selectin, platelet derived growth factor, and chemotactic and mitogenic factor contributing to vascular neointimal proliferation [ 34 36 ]. Large platelets are metabolically and enzymatically more active than small ones [ 34 ].…”
