OverviewPlatelet size and count are associated with cardiac ischemia and ischemic stroke, two of the most common forms of acute cardiovascular disease. While platelet count (PC) is a common clinical measure, assessment of platelet size using mean platelet volume (MPV), the average size of platelets in a blood sample, and platelet distribution width (PDW), the variance of the platelet volume curve, are less frequently used. The overall objective of my research is to characterize these three quantitative platelet measures in a population of healthy individuals and evaluate the genetic and environmental determinants of these traits. Clinical and anthropometric predictors were examined in addition to a genome-wide association study (GWAS) conducted for each of these three quantitative platelet traits. 23 SNPs were associated at a suggestive level of significance (p Full Product DetailsAuthor: Bozzi LauraPublisher: LAP Lambert Academic Publishing Imprint: LAP Lambert Academic Publishing Dimensions: Width: 15.20cm , Height: 0.50cm , Length: 22.90cm Weight: 0.122kg ISBN: 9783659617522ISBN 10: 3659617520 Pages: 76 Publication Date: 10 October 2014 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In stock  We have confirmation that this item is in stock with the supplier.
