Role of increased mean platelet volume (MPV) and decreased MPV/platelet count ratio as poor prognostic factors in lung cancer

Abstract: Unlike results of previous studies, the study showed that increased MPV was an important prognostic factor in patients with NSCLC. Hence, an increased MPV level may be used as a prognostic biomarker to estimate for poor overall survival in patients with NSCLC.

“…Most reports have shown that reduced MPV and/or MPV/P were linked to unsatisfactory prognosis in several carcinomas . However, in advanced NSCLC studied by Omar et al, they found elevated MPV and MPV/P could be an indicator of poor prognosis regarding OS, which is consistent with our current study. We conclude that this disparity maybe due to differing choice in cut‐off points and in the type of carcinomas studied.…”

“…The association between the inflammatory microenvironment and tumor prognosis has long been verified, and the prognostic value of the inflammatory parameters of NLR, PLR, and MLR has recently been revealed . To further investigate the prognostic value of various inflammatory parameters based on CBC, we performed this retrospective research in a single cancer center.…”

“…Indeed, high platelet count is associated with increased mortality in a variety of cancers, including malignant mesothelioma (11), gynecologic malignancies (12), and breast cancer (13). In addition, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio and mean platelet volume also add value in early diagnosis of lung cancer (14) and prognosis prediction (15,16). These findings, taken together, indicate that disordered platelet production may be connected to lung carcinogenesis.…”
