Why the study?
Is mean platelet volume elevated in patients with myocardial infarction with normal coronary arteries compared to healthy controls?
Is mean platelet volume elevated in patients with myocardial infarction with normal coronary arteries compared to healthy controls?
Mean platelet volume is elevated in patients with myocardial infarction with normal coronary arteries, suggesting platelet hyperactivity may play a role in its pathogenesis similarly to obstructive coronary artery disease.

May reflect platelet hyperactivity in MINC; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before clinical use.
Varol et al. (2009) studied this question.
