Platelet indices in stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease – association with inflammatory markers, comorbidities and therapy
Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a complex inflammatory condition that can affect haemostasis. This study aimed to determine differences in platelet-related parameters between controls and COPD subjects. The hypothesis was that platelet indices are disturbed in COPD patients, and this would be accompanied by increased C-reactive protein (CRP), fibrinogen (Fbg) and white blood cells (WBC). Therefore, platelet count (Plt),...
