TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS PATIENTS' MEAN PLATELET VOLUME, GLYCEMIC CONTROL, AND VASCULAR COMPLICATIONS: A PROSPECTIVE STUDY

Abstract

Platelet dysfunction is a major systemic consequence of Diabetes mellitus (DM), a health issue with a rising prevalence that affects people all over the world.

Methodology: 120 individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus were separated into groups with and without vascular issues for the research. In accordance with recognized DM diagnostic criteria, we evaluated a number of variables, including Plateletcrit (PCT), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), and blood glucose levels. Strict inclusion/exclusion criteria and ethical guidelines were meticulously followed during data collection.

Results: Patients with vascular problems had raised MPV, PDW, and PCT as well as noticeably higher blood glucose levels. Notably, in diabetics with vascular problems, MPV showed a high favourable connection with glycaemic control indicators.

Conclusion: In conclusion, our research emphasizes possible significance of MPV as a marker for identifying and treating DM-related vascular problems. This finding is clinically significant for improving diabetes control.
