The importance of platelet count, PDW and MPV value in the follow-up of patients with helicobacter pylori eradication

Abstract: Objectives: Helicobacter pylori infection is common all over the world. The present study aims to have platelet indices; to examine the role of platelet count, mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) as useful, inexpensive, non-invasive biomarkers for monitoring helicobacter pylori therapy. Methods: A total of 72 patients who were determined using helicobacter pylori positivity, gastroscopic biopsy and administered eradication treatment were included in this study. Whether these patien… Show more

“…The results of studies inspecting the association between H. pylori infection and platelet counts are conflicting. Studies about the patients who were diagnosed to have H. pylori infection, reported that the platelet counts were decreasing after eradication treatment (6,7). On the other hand, a study inspecting healthy people who underwent health check-ups, reported that there were no association between H. pylori infection and platelet counts (3).…”
