Figure 1 Platelet morphological parameters result in type 2 diabetes patients compared with those in the control group(A) The median mean platelet volume (MPV) in patients with type 2 diabetes was significantly higher compared to the control group (P=0.0017). (B) The median PLT in patients with type 2 diabetes did not differ from that of the control group (P=0.6833). (C) The median LPLT in patients with type 2 diabetes was significantly higher than that of the control group (P=0.0014). (D) The median PCT in patients with type 2 diabetes did not differ from that of the control group (P=0.1081). (E) The median PDW in patients with type 2 diabetes was significantly higher than that of the control group (P=0.0349). LPLT – large platelet count; MPV – mean platelet volume; PCT – plateletcrit; PDW – platelet distribution width; PLT – platelet count. Statistical significance: * P≤0.05, ** P≤0.01. The figure was created with the use of the GraphPad Prism 8.0 software (GraphPad Software, San Diego, CA, USA).
