Diagnostic importance of platelet parameters in patients with acute coronary syndrome admitted to a tertiary care hospital in southwest region, Saudi Arabia

Abstract

Platelet parameters mainly MPV and PDW are readily available and relatively simple and inexpensive laboratory tests which we detected to be significantly raised in patients who have suffered an acute coronary syndrome compared with controls.

Atherosclerosis Is Associated with Neutrophil Lymphocyte Ratio As An Inflammatory Marker in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients with Coronary Artery Disease

“…22 CAD occurs at any adult age, but it is the disease of middle and old age. In our study, the mean age of the patients in Group I (DM with CAD) was 54.73 (±8.94) years as compared to 56.59±13.63 years and 58.01±12.9 years, studies done by Assiri et al (2012) and Al-Saif et al (2011). It was 52.0±8.6 years in a study reported by Siddique et al (2010) and 56.6 years by Ullah M et al, (2011) in Bangladesh.…”

“…It was 52.0±8.6 years in a study reported by Siddique et al (2010) and 56.6 years by Ullah M et al, (2011) in Bangladesh. 21,[23][24][25] Mean total count of WBC was found 9.90 ± (1.91) x 10 9 /L in Group I and 8.66 ± (1.37) x 10 9 /L in Group II. This association is highly significant (p <0.001).…”

“…12,20 Despite improvement in primary prevention and treatment, CAD remains the chief cause of death in most developed countries. 21 The incidence is much greater in developing countries. 22 CAD occurs at any adult age, but it is the disease of middle and old age.…”

Assesment of Coronary Artery Disease by The Detection of Inflammatory Marker Like Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate, Neutrophil Lymphocyte Ratio and Leucocyte Count

“…In our study, the mean age of the patients in Group I (patients with CAD) was 54.73 (±8.94) years as compared to 56.59±13.63 years and 58.01±12.9 years, studies done by Assiri AS et al, (2012) and Al-Saif SM et al, (2011). 16,17 It was 52.0±8.6 years in a study reported by Siddique MA et al, (2010) and 56.6 years by Ullah M et al, (2011) in Bangladesh. 18,19 There was clear male predominance in Group I (89.28%).…”

Occurrence of coronary artery disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus can be predicted by neutrophil lymphocyte ratio

“…16,17 Despite improvement in primary prevention and treatment, CAD remains the chief cause of death in most developed countries. 18 e incidence is much greater in developing countries. 5 CAD occurs at any adult age, but it is the disease of middle and old age.…”
