Correlation between mean platelet volume and B-type natriuretic peptide concentration in emergency patients with heart failure

BACKGROUND: In heart failure patients, mean platelet volume (MPV) may reflect increased platelet activation or increased numbers of large, hyper-aggregable platelets. B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) concentration in blood is a sensitive and specific marker of heart failure, correlating with the sev...
