Why the study?
Does mean platelet volume predict the risk of myocardial infarction or coronary artery disease in Indian patients?
Does mean platelet volume predict the risk of myocardial infarction or coronary artery disease in Indian patients?
Mean platelet volume is not a useful biomarker for predicting the risk of myocardial infarction or coronary artery disease in Indian patients.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Mean platelet volume should not inform MI or CAD risk assessment in Indian patients; leaves open its value in other populations or models.
Myocardial infarction (MI) and coronary artery disease (CAD) is a significant cause for morbidity and mortality even in developing countries like India. Significant risk factors such as diabetes, h...
