Abstract

Background: Mean platelet volume (MPV) level is known to increase in diabetes mellitus (DM). Objective: In this study, the first aim is to examine whether there is a correlation between MPV and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and fasting plasma glucose (FPG). The second aim is to investigate whether a correlation exists between MPV and HbA1c and FPG changes after treatment Method: In the study, we examined baseline and final HbA1c, MPV and FPGA values of 343 patients. Including the study group (SG) consisted of 169 patients with diabetes whose HbA1c levels decreased %1 and the control group involving 174 patients whose HbA1c levels did not change. Results: Similar to CG, HbA1c level of SG decreased to 7.58, and MPV level reduced to 8.68. There existed a positive correlation between MPV and HbA1c levels (r=154; p
