Platelet Distribution Width: A New Prognostic Marker for Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome?
The study by Polat et al. published in the International Journal of Cardiovascular Sciences explored the association between platelet distribution width (PDW) and the severity and extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This retrospective study involved a comprehensive analysis of clinical, angiographic, and laboratory data obtained from a consecutive cohort of 1043 patients diagnosed with ACS, stratified into two groups based on PDW values (> 11.8 fL and ≤ 11.8 fL), with the [...]
