Investigating the association between the severity of acute pancreatitis and red blood cell distribution width and platelet distribution width in patients diagnosed with acute pancreatitis referred to Imam Khomeini Hospital in Ahvaz from 2018 to 2021
The findings of the study suggest that utilizing PDW as an indicator of inflammation can serve as a valuable approach to evaluating the progression of AP. However, RDW does not offer significant assistance in the early prediction of AP severity. Nonetheless, it is crucial to conduct future prospective studies with larger sample sizes, including all pancreatitis cases.
