Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood glucose that has sequelae on cellular, haematological, and metabolic parameters, including lipid profile disturbed homeostasis, which manifest in alterations in haematological parameters and lipid profiles. These changes in haematological parameters and lipid profiles have been reported by previous research; however, the pattern of these changes and their correlation have not been elucidated. This review aims to assess these changes and investigate the degree of correlation between haematological parameters and lipid profiles in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The method adopted was a traditional review approach that included a narrative of concepts and a critical assessment of a few selected articles. Findings highlight that haematological parameters and lipid profiles show varied alterations and correlations in T2DM. For instance, statistical significances at p < 0.05 are reported for WBC count (r = -0.75) showing negative correlations (p < 0.001), where RBC count (r = 0.56) showed correlation with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC), whereas anaemia (packed cell volume: r = -0.51) and RBC indices (mean corpuscular volume: r = -0.75; mean corpuscular haemoglobin: r = -089) show negative correlations with total cholesterol (TC). The specific haematological parameters, namely, RBC and WBC with differential and platelet counts, as well as indices, showed varied changes and correlation with lipid profiles, namely, HDLC, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, TC, and triglyceride, in the six reviewed articles. Diabetes is characterized by changes in haematological parameters and lipid profiles. A better understanding of the negative and positive correlating changes could be utilized in routine evaluation of subjects with prediabetes as well as managing complications in diabetes. Correlation between haematological parameters and lipid profiles over the course of diabetes progression using HbA1c as an index of glucose control is necessary for additional empirical data and updates.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2024; 15:1345293. [PMID: 38726343 PMCID: PMC11079161 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2024.1345293] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective The activation of platelets in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) triggers inflammation and hemodynamic abnormalities, contributing to the development of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Despite this, research into the relationship between plateletcrit (PCT) levels and DKD is sparse, with inconsistent conclusions drawn regarding the connection between various platelet parameters and DKD. This highlights the necessity for comprehensive, large-scale population studies. Therefore, our objective is to explore the association between PCT levels and various platelet parameters in relation to DKD. Methods In this cross-sectional study, hematological parameter data were collected from a cohort of 4,302 hospitalized Chinese patients. We analyzed the relationships between PCT, platelet count (PLT), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), platelet large cell ratio (P-LCR), and DKD, along with the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was conducted to evaluate the diagnostic potential of these parameters. Results DKD patients exhibited significantly higher PCT levels compared to those without DKD. Multivariate regression analysis identified elevated PCT and PLT levels as potential independent risk factors for both DKD and UACR, while lower MPV levels might serve as independent protective factors for eGFR. The areas under the ROC curve for PCT in relation to DKD and UACR (≥30 mg/g) were 0.523 and 0.526, respectively. The area under the ROC curve for PLT in relation to UACR (≥30 mg/g) was 0.523. Conclusion PCT demonstrates a weak diagnostic value for T2DM patients at risk of developing DKD and experiencing proteinuria, and PLT shows a similarly modest diagnostic utility for detecting proteinuria. These insights contribute to a deeper understanding of the complex dynamics involved in DKD. Additionally, incorporating these markers into routine clinical assessments could enhance risk stratification, facilitating early interventions and personalized management strategies.

Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this study is to explore the independent-influencing factors from normal people to prediabetes and from prediabetes to diabetes and use different prediction models to build diabetes prediction models. Methods The original data in this retrospective study are collected from the participants who took physical examinations in the Health Management Center of Peking University Shenzhen Hospital. Regression analysis is individually applied between the populations of normal and prediabetes, as well as the populations of prediabetes and diabetes, for feature selection. Afterward,the independent influencing factors mentioned above are used as predictive factors to construct a prediction model. Results Selecting physical examination indicators for training different ML models through univariate and multivariate logistic regression, the study finds Age, PRO, TP, and ALT are four independent risk factors for normal people to develop prediabetes, and GLB and HDL.C are two independent protective factors, while logistic regression performs best on the testing set (Acc: 0.76, F-measure: 0.74, AUC: 0.78). We also find Age, Gender, BMI, SBP, U.GLU, PRO, ALT, and TG are independent risk factors for prediabetes people to diabetes, and AST is an independent protective factor, while logistic regression performs best on the testing set (Acc: 0.86, F-measure: 0.84, AUC: 0.74). Conclusion The discussion of the clinical relationships between these indicators and diabetes supports the interpretability of our feature selection. Among four prediction models, the logistic regression model achieved the best performance on the testing set.

Abstract
Background Diabetic patients exhibit increased platelet activity. Insulin inhibits the activation of platelets. Therefore, a relative or absolute deficiency of insulin would increase platelet reactivity. The younger (larger) platelets are also more metabolically and enzymatically active. If detected early, microvascular complications could alert us regarding the possible macrovascular complications. Thus, the aims and objectives of the present study were to determine platelet indices in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with controls (non-diabetics) and to find an association of platelet indices with microvascular complications. Material & methods In this prospective case-control study conducted from 2021 to 2022 (2 years), a total number of 200 subjects were taken and were divided into two groups of 100 each, cases (I) and controls (II). The cases included patients of diabetes mellitus (DM) of a duration of more than 5 years, which were further divided into two groups of 50 each, IA and IB. Group IA consisted of patients with diabetes mellitus of a duration of more than five years with at least one microvascular complication and group IB was diabetics of more than five years duration without any microvascular complications, which includes diabetic retinopathy, diabetic nephropathy, and diabetic neuropathy. An automated cell counter (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, US) provided hemoglobin values along with the platelet count and platelet indices, i.e. mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet large cell ratio (P-LCR), and platelet distribution width (PDW). Results The present study consisted of 200 subjects divided into 2 groups of 100 each, cases (I) and controls (II). The average MPV (9.4-12.3 femtolitre) in diabetics was 12.089±1.450 fL as compared to the controls where it was 9.464±1.424 fL with a statistically significant p-value of 0.001. PDW among the cases was 16.868±2.352 fL while in controls, it was 12.753±10.559 fL (p=0.001). The mean P-LCR was 34.975±8.056% among the cases, in comparison to the mean P-LCR among the controls, which was 26.031±7.004 (p=0.001). In this study, the MPV, PDW, and P-LCR were significantly raised in individuals having diabetes with microvascular complications when compared with patients without complications. The mean MPV in diabetics with complications was 12.5960±0.95660 fL and in those without complications was 11.5820±1.67609 fL (with a p-value of P = 2×10-3)which is statistically significant. Similar results were obtained in cases of PDW and P-LCR. The mean PDW in diabetics with complications was 17.1140±2.58228 fL and without complications was 15.6220±2.10532 fL ((with a p-value of P = 2×10-3)). The mean P-LCR in diabetics with microvascular complications was 35.408±3.5490% and without complications was 33.542±4.8694% (with a p-value of P = 3.1×10-3). Conclusion Based on the findings of the present study, there is a statistical correlation between type 2 diabetes and variations in platelet indices, resulting in the associated microvascular complications. Higher MPV, PDW, and P-LCR values suggest that these parameters are more reliable predictors of early vascular complications in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus and can be utilized as an easy-to-use, low-cost method. They are a readily available, economical, practical, noninvasive, and simple-to-understand approach for assessing platelet dysfunction, which in turn helps anticipate the existence of microvascular complications.

Abstract
An elevated platelet count may contribute to significant thrombotic events and pose a risk for diabetic microvascular complications. Albuminuria, one of the hallmarks of diabetes, is thought to be a risk factor for endothelial dysfunction. In this study, we investigated the association between relative thrombocytosis and an increased urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio in healthy adult participants. Using multivariate analyses on data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey V-VI, 12,525 eligible native Koreans aged ≥ 20 were categorized into platelet count quintiles by sex. The highest platelet count quintile included younger, more obese participants with elevated white blood cell counts, poor lipid profiles, and a better estimated glomerular filtration rate. Restricted cubic spline regression analysis revealed significant associations between platelet count and fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin, and urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio. Adjusted logistic regression models indicated that heightened fasting blood glucose and platelet count were linked to risk of microalbuminuria (fasting blood glucose, odds ratio = 1.026, 95%CI = 1.011-1.042; platelet count, odds ratio = 1.004, 95%CI = 1.002-1.006). Particularly, an increased platelet count was notably associated with microalbuminuria progression in subjects with impaired fasting glucose. These findings suggest that an elevated platelet count, even below diagnostic thrombocytosis levels, independently correlates with an increased risk of vascular endothelial dysfunction in patients with impaired fasting glucose.

Abstract
Basic inflammatory markers have been extensively studied to differentiate between non-infected and infected diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). Very rarely, basic haematological tests such as white cell count (WCC) and platelet counts were used as performance markers for DFU infection severity. The aim is to investigate these biomarkers in patients with DFU treated exclusively with surgery. In this retrospective comparative study, we included 154 procedures comparing a conservative surgery group (n = 66 for infected DFU) and a minor amputation group (n = 88 for infected DFU with osteomyelitis). Outcomes were set as the preoperative values of: WCC, neutrophils (N), lymphocytes (L), Monocytes (M), Platelets (P), red cell distribution width (RDW) and the ratios N/L, L/M and P/L. Area under curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) was calculated based on the diagnosis of minor amputation as a positive result. Cutoff point values with the highest sensitivity and specificity were obtained for each outcome. The highest AUC values were for WCC (0.68), neutrophils (0.68), platelets (0.7) and P/L ratio (0.69) with corresponding cut-off values of 10,650/mm3 , 76%, 234,000/mcL and 265, respectively. The highest sensitivity was for the platelet count (81.5%) while the highest specificity was for L/M (89%) and P/L ratios (87%). Postoperative values showed similar results. Simple routine blood tests could serve as inflammatory performance markers to help predict the severity of infection in patients treated surgically for infected DFU.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy is still challenging, with recent evidence proving the key role of inflammation in the damage of the retinal neurovascular unit. This study aims to investigate the predictive value of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), and systemic inflammation index (SII) for diabetic retinopathy (DR) and its severity. We performed a retrospective study on 129 T2DM patients, divided into three groups: without retinopathy (NDR), non-proliferative DR (NPDR), and proliferative DR (PDR). NLR, MLR, and SII were significantly higher in the PDR group when compared to NDR and NPDR (3.2 ± 1.6 vs. 2.4 ± 0.9 and 2.4 ± 1.1; p = 0.005; 0.376 ± 0.216 vs. 0.269 ± 0.083 and 0.275 ± 0.111, p = 0.001; 754.4 ± 514.4 vs. 551.5 ± 215.1 and 560.3 ± 248.6, p = 0.013, respectively). PDR was correlated with serum creatinine (OR: 2.551), NLR (OR: 1.645), MPV (OR: 1.41), and duration of diabetes (OR: 1.301). Logistic regression analysis identified three predictive models with very good discrimination power for PDR (AUC ROC of 0.803, 0.809, and 0.830, respectively): combining duration of diabetes with NLR, MLR, and, respectively, PLR, MPV, and serum creatinine. NLR, MPV, SII, and LMR were associated with PDR and could be useful when integrated into comprehensive risk prediction models.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Changes in platelet indices in naturally occurring type I diabetes mellitus (T1DM) have been described in several studies. In this study, platelet indices such as platelet count (PLT), plateletcrit (PCT), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), and MPV to PLT ratio were investigated according to diabetic duration after streptozotocin (STZ)-induced T1DM, as well as for their correlation with glucose. METHODS Forty healthy adult Wistar rats were randomly assigned to four experimental groups of ten (5 rats of each sex), including the control group, the 7, 14, and 28 days diabetic groups (D7, D14, and D28, respectively). RESULTS In diabetic groups, plasma glucose was significantly higher than in control (P < 0.01). D7, D14, and D28 groups presented significantly lower PLT than the control (P < 0. 01). A significant decrease in PCT was observed in D14 and D28 females (P < 0.05). Mean platelet volume was significantly higher in the D28 group than in to control. D28 females also showed a significant difference in PLT, MPV, and the MPV-to-PLT ratio compared with D7 females (P < 0.05). A comparison between D28 females and males showed a significant difference in PDW (P < 0.05). Both females and males showed a significant correlation between glucose and PLT, PCT, MPV, and the MPV-to-PLT ratio. CONCLUSIONS Platelet indices change significantly with the duration of diabetes compared with the baseline values, and female and male rats did not have significant differences in platelet indices in any period except the 28 days.

Abstract
Aim: We consider mean platelet volume (MPV), an a pointer of platelet activity related to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and vascular complications, in patients using Sodium-Glucose Co-Transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i). Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the MPV change after SGLT2i use in diabetic patients.
Materials and Methods: Hemogram parameters such as hemoglobin, hematocrit, and MPV in the 0th and 24th weeks of 102 patients with T2DM that received SGLT2i treatment added to their existing medications and of the control group in which participants are compatible in terms of age and gender factor were compared.
Results: A significant increase was observed in the values of MPV and hemoglobin in the 0th and 24th weeks (9.3 (8.2-10.3) to 10.1 ± 1.3, p

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify variability in reported hearing outcomes for intratympanic (IT) steroid treatment of idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL) by comparing outcomes using the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS) guideline with other published criteria. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective chart review. SETTING Tertiary otology practice. PATIENTS Patients with ISSNHL treated with IT steroid between April 2003 and December 2020. INTERVENTIONS IT steroid injection and audiometric evaluation. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES 1) Rates of full, partial, or no recovery using the AAO-HNS guideline versus other reported criteria, and 2) correlation analyses of demographic and clinical variables with response to IT steroid. RESULTS Using AAO-HNS reporting criteria, full recovery of the pure-tone average was noted in 25.68% of patients. Applying eight other published outcomes criteria to this patient cohort classified full recovery in 14.87 to 40.54% of patients. Similarly, AAO-HNS criteria classified "no recovery" in 51.35% of our patients, whereas applying the other reported criteria showed an average rate of 62.16% no recovery and as high as 82.43% of patients without recovery. Younger age ( p = 0.003; effect size, 0.924) and IT injection within a week of onset ( p < 0.001; effect size, 1.099) positively correlated with full recovery. There was no impact of prior or concurrent oral steroids, or number of steroid injections on outcome. CONCLUSION Great variability exists in the literature for assessment of IT steroid outcomes in ISSNHL. Standard reporting of outcomes as per the AAO-HNS SSNHL guideline is recommended to consistently characterize IT steroid efficacy and allow comparison across studies.

Abstract
The reference intervals of complete blood count (CBC) parameters were commonly based on healthy individuals aged 20 to 79 years. However, these values are not optimal for correct clinical diagnosis in older individuals (e.g., 80-89 years). Although the reference intervals for this age group have been reported in China, there is no population-based report in Guizhou province. A total of 481 healthy adults (238 males and 243 females) aged 80 to 89 years were recruited from Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University in Guizhou. The CBC parameters were detected by Sysmex XN-9000 automatic hematology analyzer. The reference intervals of the components were analyzed according to the guidelines of International Federation of Clinical Chemistry. This study reported the reference intervals of CBC parameters. There were significant differences were examined in some reference intervals between the different gender groups, especially for RBC-related parameters. Compared with national standards, the most of all conventional reference intervals for CBC parameters were decreased. The present study provided the local reference intervals of CBC parameters for individuals aged 80 to 89 years in Guizhou, China. Some of our results were sex-specific, and most of our results show lower values while comparing with commonly used reference intervals in China. Therefore, more attentions should be paid to these differences, and accurate reference intervals will facilitate clinical diagnosis and decision-making in these populations.

Abstract
The development and progression of the complications of chronic diabetes mellitus are attributed not only to increased blood glucose levels but also to glycemic variability. Therefore, a deeper understanding of the role of glycemic variability in the development of diabetic complications may provide more insight into targeted clinical treatment strategies in the future. Previously, the mechanisms implicated in glycemic variability-induced diabetic complications have been comprehensively discussed. However, endothelial dysfunction and platelet hyperactivation, which are two newly recognized critical pathogenic factors, have not been fully elucidated yet. In this review, we first evaluate the assessment of glycemic variability and then summarise the roles of endothelial dysfunction and platelet hyperactivation in glycemic variability-induced complications of diabetes, highlighting the molecular mechanisms involved and their interconnections.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Diabetes has been considered as a 'pro-thrombotic state' with enhanced platelet reactivity. Abnormality in platelet aggregation has been found in patients with its most common chronic complication - diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential association of platelet indices with nerve conduction function and the presence of DPN in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study involved a total of 211 inpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and 55 healthy individuals for whom nerve conduction studies were carried out. DPN was diagnosed according to the American Diabetes Association recommendation. Clinical data were retrospectively collected. RESULTS Patients with diabetes in whom neuropathy developed had lower levels of platelet count (PLT) and plateletcrit (PCT) than healthy controls (P < 0.05). Statistically significant associations of low PLT and PCT levels with the reduction of summed amplitude/velocity Z-score, and the prolongation of F-wave minimum latency in nerve conduction studies were found. Furthermore, after multivariate adjustment, logistic regression analysis showed that low levels of PLT (odds ratio 2.268, 95% confidence interval 1.072-4.797; P < 0.05; PLT <226 vs PLT ≥226) and PCT (odds ratio 2.050, 95% confidence interval 1.001-4.201; P < 0.05; PCT <0.222 vs PCT ≥0.222) in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients were risk factors for the presence of DPN. CONCLUSIONS Lower PLT and PCT levels are closely associated with poorer peripheral nerve conduction functions and the presence of neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, which suggests that PLT and PCT might be potential biomarkers for showing DPN.

Abstract
Uncontrolled diabetes has been associated with progression of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in several studies. Therefore, we aimed to investigate systemic and ophthalmic factors related to worsening of DR even after completion of panretinal photocoagulation (PRP). We retrospectively reviewed DR patients who had completed PRP in at least one eye with a 3-year follow-up. A total of 243 eyes of 243 subjects (mean age 52.6 ± 11.6 years) were enrolled. Among them, 52 patients (21.4%) showed progression of DR after PRP (progression group), and the other 191 (78.6%) patients had stable DR (non-progression group). The progression group had higher proportion of proliferative DR (P = 0.019); lower baseline visual acuity (P < 0.001); and higher platelet count (P = 0.048), hemoglobin (P = 0.044), and hematocrit, (P = 0.042) than the non-progression group. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis for progression of DR, baseline visual acuity (HR: 0.053, P < 0.001) and platelet count (HR: 1.215, P = 0.031) were identified as risk factors for progression. Consequently, we propose that patients with low visual acuity or high platelet count are more likely to have progressive DR despite PRP and require careful observation. Also, the evaluation of hemorheological factors including platelet counts before PRP can be considered useful in predicting the prognosis of DR.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Platelet distribution width (PDW) has been reported in a wide range of pathological settings. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between PDW and lower extremity chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) by comparing the levels of PDW and other parameters derived from complete blood count (CBC) tests in young individuals with or without lower extremity CVI. METHODS This prospective clinical study was conducted between January 2020 and December 2020. A total of 108 patients, 72 patients with lower extremity CVI (study group) and 36 healthy volunteers (control group) were enrolled from the Bursa Yuksek Ihtısas Educatıon Research Hospıtal and the Bolu Abant Izzet Baysal University Training and Research Hospital. The age range of the participants was between 18 and 50 years old. Participants' baseline clinical features and CBC parameters including PDW, white blood cell, hemoglobin, hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume, red cell distribution width, neutrophil, lymphocyte, platelet count, mean platelet volume, plateletcrit, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The groups were statistically similar in terms of baseline clinical features. The median PDW value was significantly higher for the CVI patients relative to the control group (17.6 vs 16.8; p < 0.001). In terms of other CBC parameters, there were no significant differences between the groups. According to ROC analysis, area under the curve of PDW was 0.749 (95% confidence interval: 0.653-0.846 and p < 0.001). If the value of PDW was accepted as 17, it could predict CVI with 76% sensitivity and 59% specificity, whereas a PDW value of 17.5 could predict CVI with 51% sensitivity and 81% specificity. CONCLUSION Platelet distribution width might be a useful marker to determine an increased inflammatory response and thrombotic status in young patients with CVI.

Abstract
Background The study's main aim is to compare and correlate the levels of various hematological indices in type 2 DM patients with the gender, age, duration, and family history of diabetic conditions to predict diabetes-related complications. Methods The diabetic population is divided into 2, group 1- subjects with complications and group 2- subjects without complications. Hematological indices are measured using an automated analyzer. Results Females from group 1 show a significantly higher value for PLC (3.72 ± 4.79/<0.05) and positively correlate with the diabetic duration. Females with >40 years of age from group 2 show a significantly higher value for platelet larger cell ratio (P-LCR/%) (40.17 ± 3.25 (>40)/<0.05) than those with <40 age and positively correlated with the age. Males with >40 years of age from group 1 show a significantly higher value for plateletcrit (PCT/%) (0.297 ± 0.067 (>40)/<0.05) than those from <40 age and positively correlated with the age. All the male subjects show significant higher values for hemoglobin concentration (HB/g/dl) (13.49 ± 2.22)/<0.05 for group 1) (13.61 ± 2.02)/<0.05 for group 2) and hematocrit (HCT/L/L) (37.30 ± 7.55/<0.05 for group 1) (38.64 ± 5.42/<0.05 for group 2). Conclusion Correlating the hematological indices with the gender, age, and duration of diabetic condition will help determine future complications and the severity of the diabetic condition in type 2 DM patients.

Abstract
The current study was carried out to estimate the protective effect of methanolic extract of Chaetomorpha gracilis (MECG) against High Cholesterol Diet (HCD) induced erythrocyte damage in mice. The results of the in vitro assay showed that MECG have higher antioxidant capacities in the DPPH, TAC, ABTS, NBT, NO. inhibition assays. The HPLC analysis confirmed that this potential antioxidant seems to be due to the active compounds, in particular polyphenols, flavonoids. HCD promoted oxidative stress with a rise the level of malonaldehyde (MDA), advanced oxidation protein product (AOPP) levels and a significant decrease of the Vitamin C content, as well the antioxidant enzyme activities such as superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase. In addition, HCD treatment caused significant lipid profile disorders via increase the cholesterol, triglycerides and LDL levels and reduction HDL-Ch level. A statistically significant decrease of Mg2+ and Ca2+ ATPase activities accompanied with a severe damage in the erythrocytes structure and hematological parameters alterations were also noted in hypercholesterolemic mice. Pre-treatment with MECG significantly restored biochemical markers and pathological lesions. It can be suggest that supplementation of MECG displays high potential to quench free radicals and attenuates high cholesterol diet induced erythrocytes oxidative stress and related damages.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To the aim of this study was to evaluate the association between mean platelet volume (MPV) and diabetic retinopathy (DR). METHODS Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) referred to Ophthalmology Clinic of Rohani Teaching Hospital in Babol, Northern Iran were entered into this case-control study. Healthy subjects in control group included individuals without history of DM. The patients were classified into four groups including I. Control (n=79), II. Diabetic patients without DR (n=68), III. Non-proliferative DR (n=61), and IV. Proliferative DR (n=64). Blood samples were collected, and necessary laboratory tests were performed. RESULTS The MPV value was significantly higher in each group of II, III and IV compared to group I (p<0.001). This value was also significantly higher in each group of III and IV compared to group II. On the other hand, there was no significant difference between III and IV groups in MPV. A significant correlation was found between MPV and fasting blood sugar in groups II (r=0.349, p=0.004), III (r=0.269, p=0.036) and IV (r=0.258, p=0.040). Moreover, there was a significant correlation between MPV and hemoglobin A1c in groups II (r=0.366, p=0.002), III (r=0.312, p=0.015) and IV (r=0.278, p=0.026). CONCLUSION The results of this study showed that the increased MPV value was directly associated with DR and its severity. A positive association was also found between MPV and indicators of glycemic status. Considering that measurement of MPV as a suitable parameter reflecting platelet function can be easily conducted, it can be clinically used to monitor status of DR.

Abstract
PURPOSE Platelet indices have been shown to be associated with complications of diabetes mellitus (DM). However, the clinical relevance of platelet indices for assessing the risk of being microvascular complications among patients with DM is largely overlooked. Hence this study aimed to determine the association of platelet indices with microvascular complications among type 2 DM patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 352 type 2 DM patients from April 1 to May 30/2019 at Debre Berhan Referral Hospital. Data were collected by interview, physical measurements, document review, and laboratory tests. Then the data were entered into Epi-data manager-4.4.1.0 and exported into SPSS-25 for analysis. Platelet indices were compared between participants with and without microvascular complications using an independent t-test. A logistic regression model was used to assess the association between microvascular complications and platelet indices. All inferences were considered statistically significant at P<0.05. RESULTS One hundred seventeen (33.2%) of participants were suffering from at least one microvascular complications. The mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), and platelet-large cell ratio (P-LCR) were significantly increased in DM patients with complications as compared to without complications (13.57±2.17fl vs. 11.76±1.93fl), (16.57±2.49fl vs. 14.97±2.41fl) and (28.09±7.58% vs. 24.19±6.46%), respectively (all are P˂0.001). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, MPV (AOR=1.68, 95% CI: 1.37-2.05), PDW (AOR=1.37, 95% CI: 1.15-1.63), P-LCR (AOR=1.07, 95% CI: 1.01-1.14), age (AOR=1.07, 95% CI: 1.01-1.12), and duration of DM (AOR=1.31, 95% CI: 1.18-1.46) were significantly associated with the presence of microvascular complications. CONCLUSION MPV, PDW, and P-LCR were significantly higher among type 2 DM patients with microvascular complications. This indicates that platelet indices can be used as prognostic markers of vascular complications and can be used as simple and cost-effective parameters to predict microvascular complications particularly in patients with old age and long duration of DM.

Curr Diabetes Rev 2021; 17:e080621193947. [PMID: 34102979 DOI: 10.2174/1573399817666210608121024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2020] [Revised: 12/19/2020] [Accepted: 02/13/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes is a part of metabolic syndrome associated with a higher risk of vascular complications. Diabetes is characterized by changes in platelet morphology, function, and platelet hyperactivity so, it's considered a prothrombotic condition. Morbidity and mortality in people with type 2 diabetes-related to micro and macrovascular complications. Novel biomarkers are needed to identify and treat people at higher risk. OBJECTIVE The main objective of this controlled cross-sectional study was to evaluate Platelet volume indices (PVI) in subjects with type 2 diabetes with and without complications in comparison to subjects without diabetes. METHODS Hundred and thirty-five subjects aged from 35 to 60 years were subdivided into 3 groups. Group A includes 55 subjects with type 2 diabetes with complications. Group B includes 45 subjects with type 2 diabetes without complications. Group C includes 35 normal healthy subjects. Detailed clinical history was taken. Also, PVI, fasting blood glucose (FBG), hemoglobin A1c, and creatinine were obtained. RESULTS Mean Platelet Volume (MPV), Platelet Distribution Width (PDW), Plateletcrit (PCT), and Platelet large cell ratio (P-LCR) were significantly higher among subjects with retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy than other subjects with diabetes who didn't develop complications (P<0.001). At cutoff value > 11.9 fL, MPV have diagnostic sensitivity 80% and specificity 97.8%. Whereas PDW >16.9fL has a sensitivity of 74.5% and specificity of 100% for diabetic microvascular complications (retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy). CONCLUSION MPV and PDW may be considered as possible biomarkers for the early detection of diabetic microvascular complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelets, also called thrombocytes, are produced in bone marrow and are the second most numerous blood cells which circulate in blood and play a pivotal role in hemostasis, wound healing, angiogenesis. There is a large body of evidence that platelets are likely to contribute to inflammation in multiple diseases. Also, recent studies revealed the association between platelet indices (PI) and inflammation. METHODS PubMed, Scopus and Google Scholar databases were searched and only papers published in the last 10 years were consequently analyzed. RESULTS The most frequently evaluated parameters are mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet diversity index (PDW), plateletcrit (PCT) and the presence of larger platelets (P-LCRs platelet larger cell ratio). The values of platelet indices (PI) were elevated in patients suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus, myocardial infarction, cancers or acute surgical conditions, such as appendicitis. The measurement of PIs does not generate additional costs and can be performed during routine cell blood count, not requiring additional blood samples. CONCLUSIONS Platelet indices may have prognostic and predictive value in numerous conditions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) may be used in the early stage risk assessment and follow-up in diabetic foot infection. METHODS Over a five-year study, NLR values on admission and day 14 of treatment were matched with their laboratory and clinical data in a cohort study. Patients were followed-up or consulted in several clinics or polyclinics (infectious diseases). RESULTS Admission time NLR was higher, in severe cases as indicated by both Wagner and PEDIS infection scores (severe versus mild Wagner score NLR 6.7 versus 4.2; p=0.04; for PEDIS score NLR 6.3 versus 3.6; p=0.03, respectively). In patients who underwent vascular intervention (12.6 versus 4.6; p=0.02); amputation indicated (9.2 versus 4.1; p=0.005) and healed afterwards (6.9 versus 4.3; p<0,001), when matched with others. NLR was also found to be correlated with duration of both IV antibiotic treatment (r=0.374; p=0.005) and hospitalisation (r=0.337; p=0.02). Day 14 NLR was higher in patients who underwent vascular intervention (5.1 versus 2.9; p=0.007) when matched to others. CONCLUSION Patients with higher NLR values at admission had more severe diabetic foot infection, higher risk for amputation, need for long-term hospitalisation and aggressive treatment. However, they also have more chance of benefit from treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To critically review the literature describing links between mean platelet volume (MPV) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). We will focus on coronary artery disease (CAD). The MPV is measured routinely as part of a routine blood count. RECENT FINDINGS There is accumulating evidence showing that the MPV may predict CVD, as well as outcomes in patients with CAD. There is also evidence linking MPV and comorbidities (e.g. diabetes mellitus and impaired glycaemic control) that are expected in patients with CAD. The effect on MPV of drugs commonly used to treat CAD has not been clarified, but there is some evidence that they may exert a beneficial effect on the MPV. More specifically, the MPV may predict the effect of antiplatelet drugs (e.g. clopidogrel). There is also evidence relating MPV to stroke, atrial fibrillation, coronary artery ectasia and periprocedural outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). SUMMARY Measuring the MPV may prove useful in CVD risk assessment in patients with established CAD or at risk of developing CAD. Overall, there is evidence pointing to the role of MPV as a contributor rather than simple marker of CVD.

Abstract
Background: Despite huge efforts, the underlying molecular mechanisms of diabetic nephropathy (DN) are yet elusive, and holistic views have rarely been generated. Considering the complexity of DN pathogenesis, the integration of datasets from different molecular types to construct a multilayer map of DN can provide a comprehensive insight toward the disease mechanisms and also can generate new knowledge. Here, we have re-analyzed two mRNA microarray datasets related to glomerular and tubulointerstitial compartments of human diabetic kidneys. Materials and Methods: The quality of the datasets was confirmed by unsupervised hierarchical clustering and principal component analysis. For each dataset, differentially expressed (DE) genes were identified, and transcription factors (TFs) regulating these genes and kinases phosphorylating the TFs were enriched. Furthermore, microRNAs (miRNAs) targeting the DE genes, TFs, and kinases were detected. Based on the harvested genes for glomeruli and tubulointerstitium, key signaling pathways and biological processes involved in diseases pathogenesis were recognized. In addition, the interaction of different elements in each kidney compartment was depicted in multilayer networks, and topology analysis was performed to identify key nodes. Central miRNAs whose target genes were most likely to be related to DN were selected, and their expressions were quantitatively measured in a streptozotocin-induced DN mouse model. Results: Among the examined miRNAs, miR-208a-3p and miR-496a-3p are, for the first time, found to be significantly overexpressed in the cortex of diabetic kidneys compared to controls. Conclusion: We predict that miR-208 is involved in oxygen metabolism and regulation of cellular energy balance. Furthermore, miR-496 potentially regulates protein metabolism and ion transport. However, their exact functions remain to be investigated in future studies. Taken together, starting from transcriptomics data, we have generated multilayer interaction networks and introduced novel players in DN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Screening and diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy (DR) mainly depends on fundus examination, which is not an intuitive and simple screening or diagnostic method. Recently, the relationship between platelet parameters and DR has become a hot topic. Whether platelet parameters have clinical value in DR is controversial. METHODS Literature was retrieved by formal search of electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library, Scopus, and CNKI) and by hand searching of reference lists of related articles from the beginning of building database to December 2017. Review manager 5.3 was utilized to deal with statistical data. This study was registered at International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (number: CRD42018093773). RESULTS This study included 1720 DR patients, 1477 type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) without DR patients and 1456 health controls in 21 eligible studies. We found there was significant increase of platelet distribution width (PDW) level in the comparison of DR versus Control group (standard mean difference [SMD] [95% confidence interval [CI]] = 1.04 [0.68, 1.40]) and DR versus T2DM without DR group (SMD [95% CI] = 0.68 [0.40, 0.95]). For platelet count (PLT), it showed obvious decrease in the comparison of DR versus T2DM without DR group (SMD [95% CI] = -0.26 [-0.49, -0.03]) and no difference in comparison of DR versus Control (SMD [95% CI] = -0.26 [-0.51, -0.00]). Subgroup analysis showed that significant result of PDW level appeared in China and Turkey in all comparisons, while similar results of PLT only in China. In addition, PDW level was different in various DR-subtypes, obvious high level in proliferation DR. CONCLUSIONS We concluded that the guiding significance of PDW and PLT in diagnosis and monitor of DR, and especially, application of PDW to PDR management may have potential sense.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most common diseases causing blindness in the world, and most patients are already in advanced stage. Recent years, many studies reported mean platelet volume (MPV) may be associated with development of DR, but there was no consistent conclusion reached. METHODS Literature was retrieved by formally searching PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library and Scopus and by hand searching of reference lists of related articles. Finally, a total of 14 literatures included, and Review manager 5.3 and STATA 14.0 statistical software were utilized for processing. RESULTS Meta-analysis showed that MPV values in DR were significantly higher than health controls [SMD (95% CI) = 0.92 (0.60-1.24)] and type 2 diabetes mellitus without diabetic retinopathy (T2DM without DR) [SMD (95% CI) = 0.36 (0.19-0.53)]. Subgroup analysis indicated that MPV level in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) patients was higher than T2DM without DR patients [SMD (95% CI) = 0.48 (0.28, 0.68)], but this difference didn't appear in non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR). CONCLUSIONS The study demonstrated that increased MPV level was significant associated with the development of DR, and it might reflect the severity of DR, which could be provided to monitor development and progression of DR clinically.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients have a higher risk of developing micro- and macrovascular complications, which lead to decrease in the quality of life and increase in morbidity. Platelet indices have been available in the laboratory routine using blood cell counters for several years. These indices could alert us regarding endothelial dysfunction and in turn regarding the microvascular complications. Hence, this study was done to prove the correlation between platelet indices and microvascular complications in T2DM. MATERIALS AND METHODS In total, 125 diabetic patients attending diabetes OPD and admitted in medicine department along with age and sex-matched non-diabetic controls were studied. A detailed history was taken regarding duration of diabetes, medication, past history of stroke, IHD, and hypertension. Patients with T2DM were specially evaluated for microvascular complications. Platelet indices, fasting blood glucose, Post prandial blood glucose, HbA1C, and Sr. Creatinine were obtained from venous blood samples. All parameters were then subjected to statistical analysis using SPSS 17.0. RESULTS Platelet indices, namely MPV, PCT, PDW, and P/LCR were significantly higher in diabetic individuals than those in age and gender-matched controls. Moreover, the increase in MPV, PDW, and P/LCR was more significant in diabetic subjects with microvascular complications when compared with those without microvascular complications. Platelet dysfunction also showed a positive association with HbA1C, retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy individually. CONCLUSIONS Changes in platelet indices were found to be statistically associated with diabetes and its complications.

Abstract
AIM To explore the correlation between several blood cell-associated inflammatory indices including mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and the presence and severity of diabetic retinopathy (DR). METHODS We searched for eligible studies from PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science and CNKI up to December 13, 2017. Standardized mean difference (SMD) calculated with confidence interval (CI) of 95% was used to estimate the values of those indices. RESULTS A total of 31 studies were included in the present Meta-analysis. As compared with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients without DR, the values of MPV, PDW, NLR, and PLR were higher in patients with DR (SMD=0.67; 95%CI: 0.36 to 0.98; SMD=0.51; 95%CI: 0.27 to 0.75; SMD=0.77; 95%CI: 0.49 to 1.05 and SMD=1.18; 95%CI: 0.07 to 2.28). Additionally, it was also observed that MPV was closely correlated with the severity of DR. CONCLUSION MPV, PDW, NLR, and PLR could be recommended as diagnostic biomarkers for DR, and MPV could be applied to assess the severity of DR.

Abstract
The incidence and prevalence of diabetes mellitus is rapidly increasing worldwide at an alarming rate. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the most prevalent form of diabetes, accounting for approximately 90-95% of the total diabetes cases worldwide. Besides affecting the ability of body to use glucose, it is associated with micro-vascular and macro-vascular complications. Augmented atherosclerosis is documented to be the key factor leading to vascular complications in T2DM patients. The metabolic milieu of T2DM, including insulin resistance, hyperglycemia and release of excess free fatty acids, along with other metabolic abnormalities affects vascular wall by a series of events including endothelial dysfunction, platelet hyperactivity, oxidative stress and low-grade inflammation. Activation of these events further enhances vasoconstriction and promotes thrombus formation, ultimately resulting in the development of atherosclerosis. All these evidences are supported by the clinical trials reporting the importance of endothelial dysfunction and platelet hyperactivity in the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic vascular complications. In this review, an attempt has been made to comprehensively compile updated information available in context of endothelial and platelet dysfunction in T2DM.

[PMID: 29581246 PMCID: PMC6019380 DOI: 10.1042/bsr20180172] [Citation(s) in RCA: 48] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2018] [Revised: 03/13/2018] [Accepted: 03/26/2018] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the correlation of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), mean platelet volume (MPV), and platelet distribution width (PDW) with diabetic nephropathy (DN) and diabetic retinopathy (DR). We searched for eligible studies from PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and CNKI up to 1 December 2017. Standardized mean difference (SMD) was calculated with a confidence interval (CI) of 95%. A total of 48 studies were included in our meta-analysis. Compared with patients with type Ⅱ diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and without DR, NLR, MPV, and PDW were higher in patients with DR (SMD = 0.77; 95% CI: 0.49-1.05; P<0.001; SMD = 0.68; 95% CI: 0.36-0.99; P<0.001; SMD = 0.52; 95% CI: 0.28-0.76; P<0.01). Compared with patients with T2DM and without DN, NLR, MPV, and PDW were higher in patients with DN (SMD = 0.63; 95% CI: 0.43-0.83; P<0.001; SMD = 0.81; 95% CI: 0.36-1.25; P<0.001; SMD = 0.70; 95% CI: 0.50-0.90; P<0.001). We also found that MPV was strongly associated with the severity of DR, and NLR was closely related to the degree of DN. Our findings indicated that NLR, MPV, and PDW could be recommended as inexpensive diagnostic biomarkers for DN and DR. However, considering several limitations in the present study, further high-quality clinical studies should be performed to investigate the relationship of NLR, MPV, and PDW to DN and DR.

Abstract
Background Diabetes mellitus is a very rampant metabolic disorder, particularly type II. It has many complications such as the septic foot. Diabetic septic foot (DSF) patients are at high risk for coagulation abnormalities as well as surgical hazards. Owing to the potential sequelae of coagulation and vascular abnormalities, this work aimed at studying the hemostatic state and platelet indices in diabetes type II patients with septic foot. Methods A case-control study was conducted during the period from July to September 2017 at Dr. Awaad medical center, Red Sea State, Sudan. 57 diabetic patients with septic foot, aged between 17 and 78 years along with 57 non-diabetic subjects as control were enrolled. Sociodemographic data were collected using a structured questionnaire. Venipuncture blood was taken with necessary safety measures. Diabetes profile, coagulation studies as well as platelet indices were estimated. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 24.0 for windows. Ethical approval was considered and written consent from each participant was obtained. Results The mean age of diabetic patients with septic foot and healthy controls were 48.49 ± 15.8 and 32.77 ± 14.0, respectively. The duration of the diabetes onset was 10.43 ± 9.5 years. Plasma prothrombin time (PT) value (12.61 ± 2.6 vs 13.67 ± 1.5, P < 0.009) was found to be significantly shorter in DSF compared to control. Plasma activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) value was significant in diabetic septic foot (32.64 ± 5.2 vs 28.49 ± 4.13, P < 0.000), and thrombin time (TT) did not changed in DSF. Mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), and platelet large cell ratio (P-LCR) values were significantly decreased in DSF compared to control (P < 0.013, 0.034, and 0.020, respectively). PDW values were positively correlated with PT, APTT, and D-Dimer (DD) (r = 0.28/p < 0.003, r = 0.29/p < 0.029, and r = 0.32/p < 0.016, respectively). FVIII activity (121.86 ± 174.4 vs 98.66 ± 31.83, P < 0.951) was insignificant with DSF, as the DD was also insignificant (P < 0.081). Conclusion Diabetes mellitus is associated with prothrombotic tendency. Hypercoagulable state in DSF is indicated by shortened PT finding. PDW is a manifesting evidence that proves the presence of more reactive and aggregable platelets in DSF patients.

Mean Platelet Volume Is Associated with Early Neurological Deterioration in Patients with Branch Atheromatous Disease: Involvement of Platelet Activation. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2018; 27:1624-1631. [PMID: 29428328 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2018.01.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2017] [Revised: 01/04/2018] [Accepted: 01/13/2018] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The most attentive clinical problem in patients with branch atheromatous disease (BAD) is early neurological deterioration (END). Although the platelet activation (PA) is involved in pathogenesis, the relationship between PA and END has remained unclear. We investigated clinical data including mean platelet volume (MPV, fL) as a marker for PA to identify clinically useful biomarkers for END. METHODS A total of 64 patients with BAD were investigated retrospectively, and divided into 2 groups based on whether neurologic symptoms deteriorated or not: BAD with and without END (END and non-END). The END was defined as patients with point increase of 1 or greater in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS); non-END was defined as those without such increase. Clinical features such as NIHSS, modified Rankin scale (mRS), laboratory data including MPV, lesion size (LS, mm) on admission, and treatments were compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS Of 64 patients, 17 cases had an END. The median values of NIHSS, mRS, MPV, and LS on admission were significantly greater in END than in non-END (P < .05, respectively). There was no correlation of MPV with NIHSS, mRS and LS, respectively. The median values of MPV were significantly higher in END than in non-END and control (P < .05, respectively). A receiver operating characteristic curve indicated a value of 10.1 as cutoff level for MPV to discriminate between END and non-END. CONCLUSIONS High MPV values on admission may be an independent biomarker for END. Physicians should pay more careful attention to END in BAD showing MPV values higher than 10.1 on admission.
