  1. The effects shown were adjusted for patients’ age, sex and type of treatment. Poorer metabolic control was significantly associated with higher platelet counts. MPV – mean platelet volume; PLT – platelet count; PDW – platelet distribution width; P-LCR – platelet large cell ratio; Beta – partial correlation coefficient.
