Abstract: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Red-cell distribution width (RDW) and mean platelet volume (MPV) are two parameters included in complete blood count (CBC). It is simple, inexpensive, and widely available in any hospital. Many previous studies have shown that RDW and MPV can be used as supporting biomarkers for CAP, but the study in this area remains limited. This study aims to investigate the relationship between RDW and MPV with the severity of … Show more
