The investigation of complete blood counting parameters in deep venous thrombosis
Journal Title: Dicle Tıp Dergisi - Year 2014, Vol 41, Issue 1
Abstract
Objective: The role of inflammation in the deep venous thrombosis (DVT) process has been explained in various studies. Hence, the role of inflammatory markers in this illness has been researched previouslyin the literature. Recent years, such as parameters, neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR), among complete blood count have been frequently started to use as an expression of inflammatory marker. In the current study, the relation between complete blood count parameters and DVT was investigated. Methods: 50 patients admitted to our clinic with the diagnosis of acute DVT (28 female, 22 male) were included in the study. The patients were diagnosed by clinical symptoms and Doppler USG. Patients with additional illness that can form an inflammatory response were excluded. 30 healthy volunteers were included as a control group. Routine complete blood counts of these patients were examined retrospectively. Routine complete blood counts and nonselective inflammatory markers, red cell distribution width (RDW), white cells (WBC), NLR, and PLR measurements were examined statistically. Results: The mean age of patients included in study was 46.2±14.2 and 53% of them were female. When the groups were examined in terms of hematological parameters, lymphocyte (2.6±0.8 and 2.1±0.7, p=0.003) and platelet (322±144 and 264±66, p=0.042) values were detected to be higher. Hemoglobin (13.2±2.0 and 14.6±1.5, p=0.002) and hematocrit (38.7±5.1 and 42.8±6.9, p<0.001) values were detected to be less while the WBC, neutrophil, NLR, RDW and PLR were similar. Regarding the two groups with and without anticoagulant therapy, in the DVT group, there were no significant differences detected in terms of age, gender, and hematological parameters. Conclusion: In this study, there were no significant differences between healthy volunteers blood count parameters of patients taken into consideration with pure DVT. There is no significant change shown. Key words: Complete blood count, deep vein thrombosis, platelet lymphocyte ratio, neutrophil lymphocyte ratio
