Hanedan Onan Sertac , Demirbilek Huseyin , Aldudak Bedri , Bilici Meki , Demir Fikri , Muhtar Yilmazer Murat

Background: Acute rheumatic fever (ARF) is a non-suppurative complication of Group A beta-hemolytic streptococcus pharyngitis. The underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. A series of autoimmune processes are thought to be involved in pathogenesis. Low vitamin D levels have been reported in various autoimmune diseases.Objective and hypotheses: The aim of the present study is to evaluate the association of vitamin D levels and its impact on t...

Does Vitamin D Affect Mean Platelet Volume Values or Not

Bulan Keziban , Dogan Murat , Kaba Sultan , Aslan Oktay

Objective: Platelets play a key role in the development and progression of cardiovascular disease. The degree of platelet activation may be assessed by platelet indices such as platelet count, mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW). In addition, both epidemiological and in-vitro studies have linked vitamin D deficiency to enigmatic disease including cardiovascular disease however a clear mechanistic link remains missing. In present study, we ...
