Buch Pankti C, Kudrimoti Jyoti K

Abstract :

Objective: To study the correlation of platelet indices with glycemic control in the diabetes mellitus. Methods: A cross sectional descriptive study was conducted on 150 patients (diabetic cases: 74, controls: 66 ) over a period of 2 months. Patients with anemia, Coronary artery disease, on antiplatelet drugs and with malignancy were excluded from the study. Complete hemogram was performed on sysmex KX 21. Blood sugar fasting and HbA1c were recorded. Results were analysed statistically using Means ± standard deviation (SD) and p value was calculated. Pearson’s correlation coefficient was calculated . Results: Mean platelet count in cases and controls were 2.50 Lacs/cu.mm+/– 0.70 and 2.43+/– 0.77 ( p value 0.53); MPV was 7.96+/– 1.12 ( p value 0.06)and 7.64+/– 1.0; PDW was 11.92+/– 1.54 and 11.40+/– 1.33 ( p value 0.02) respectively. There was positive correlation of MPV and PDW with Blood sugar fasting and HbA1c. r value for correlation of MPV with FBS and HbA1c were 0.1016 and 0.1145 respectively while that with PDW were 0.14 and 0.13 respectively. Conclusion: We conclude that there is positive correlation between impaired glycemic control and derangement of platelet indices
