Can mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR) be an early predictor for severe acute pancreatitis?

Aim: Investigating serum mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR) levels in acute pancreatitis (AP) patients,and evaluating whether MPV and PLR estimate AP disease severity efficiently at early phase.Material and Methods: One hundred and forty patients diagnosed with AP and 49 healthy controls (HC) have been included inthe study. Ranson criteria, revised Atlanta criteria and Balthazar scores of AP patients have been found from hospital registrationsystems, and mild-severe AP patients have been separated. MPV and PLR levels at admission were checked for the patients.Results: While no difference was determined between AP group and HC group with regard to MPV levels (p:0.998), PLR levels wasdetermined to be higher in AP group than HC group (p
