Increased mean platelet volume in patients with infective endocarditis and embolic events

Abstract: Background: Platelet activation appears to play an important role in thromboembolic complications of infective endocarditis (IE). Mean platelet volume (MPV) is subjects (10.62 ± 1.13 vs. 9.25 ± 0.97 and 8.93 ± 0.82 fL, p < 0.001, respectively). Similarly, the patients with embolic events had increased PDW compared to the non-embolic ones and the control group (16.31 ± 2.42 vs. 14.35 ± 1.97 and 14.04 ± 1.82%, p < 0.001, respectively (Cardiol J 2015; 22, 1: 37-43)

“…to 40% in those infected with Staphylococcus aureus [59]. The development and course of IE may depend on (1) the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns as well as cytokine and acute phase response to causative agents [1012], (2) hemostasis [1315], (3) plasma lipid profile [16, 17], and (4) plasma calcium profile [18, 19]. …”

“…Более того, в группах риска летальность может достигать и 70% [29]. Развитие и клини-ческое течение ИЭ могут зависеть от: 1) опозна-вания патоген-ассоциированных молекулярных паттернов, цитокинового и острофазового отве-та [16,25,35]; 2) гемостаза [5,21,24]; 3) липидно-го [13,22] и кальциевого профиля плазмы крови [30,32]. Концептуально процессы воспаления, окисления липидов, кальцификации и гемоста-за в настоящее время рассматриваются как взаи-мосвязанные в рамках иммуновоспалительного континуума, одним из конечных звеньев кото-рого является кальцификация нативных и про-тезных клапанов сердца, ведущая к клапанной деструкции и недостаточности [28].…”

“…I read the article published by Ileri et al [1] with a great interest. They compared mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) in infective endocarditis (IE) patients who developed embolic events, those who did not, and controls.…”
