Intraabdominal hypertension is a common occurrence, especially in intensive care unit patients, and it has high mortality and morbidity rates. The onset is commonly insidious and the poor prognosis is attributed to the long delay in diagnosis. Unfortunately, diagnosis is often delayed until loss of function in the affected tissues has already occurred. The aim of this study was to determine the predictive value of mean platelet volume (MPV) in assessing the risk of intraabdominal hypertension. Materials and methods: Pneumoperitoneum during elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy was used as a model for intraabdominal hypertension. The study included 103 patients who met the …

To examine the effects of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) on mean platelet volume (MPV), lipid profile, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in postmenopausal women who have a high risk and incidence of cardiovascular disease. Materials and methods: This study was performed retrospectively. Twenty-seven healthy postmenopausal women received 1 mg estradiol and 2 mg drospirenone orally for 6 months. Twenty-eight healthy postmenopausal women not taking any HRT were admitted to the study as the control population. Results: Time effect (independent from group effect) was statistically significant for the MPV variable (P = 0.025), but there was no significant change in MPV …

Vascular risk factors play an important role in the progression of Alzheimer disease (AD). Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a determinant of platelet functionality and increased MPV is associated with an increased risk of vascular inflammation. Here we aimed to examine whether MPV could be used as a marker of vascular damage in AD and to discuss the relation between MPV and other vascular risk factors. Materials and methods: A total of 109 outpatients with AD and 81 healthy controls were included in this study. Diagnosis of AD was made according to defined criteria. The Turkish version of the Mini …
