Mean platelet volume/platelet count ratio in combination with tumor markers in colorectal cancer: a retrospective clinical study

Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a marker of platelet activation, which is usually negatively correlated with platelet count (PC). The ratio of MPV to PC (MPV/PC) has an essential role in the diagnosis of multiple malignancies. However, only a few studies investigated the value of MPV/PC in colorectal...

Description
Summary:Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a marker of platelet activation, which is usually negatively correlated with platelet count (PC). The ratio of MPV to PC (MPV/PC) has an essential role in the diagnosis of multiple malignancies. However, only a few studies investigated the value of MPV/PC in colorectal cancer (CRC) and the combination of MPV/PC with tumor markers in CRC. This retrospective clinical study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of MPV/PC and tumor markers (CA72-4, CA125, CA199) used alone or in combination in CRC. 200 patients with CRC and 317 patients with colorectal benign polypus pathologically diagnosed during 2019/01/04 to 2022/06/30 were included. Hematological and pathological parameters of the above patients were collected, data were analyzed with Student's t-test, one-way ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis H test and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and ROC curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of tumor markers and MPV/PC used alone or in combination in CRC. The MPV/PC in CRC group was significantly lower than the control group (P
