Mar 14th, 2023 - To investigate the association between red cell distribution width (RDW) and the RDW to platelet count ratio (RPR) and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and to further investigate whether the association involves population differences and dose-respo...

Mar 10th, 2023 - The red cell distribution width (RDW) reflects the degree of heterogeneity of red blood cells. Elevated RDW is associated both with frailty and with increased mortality in hospital-admitted patients. In this study we evaluate whether high RDW valu...

Feb 24th, 2023 - Hematological markers that can be used for prognosis prediction for stage I lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) are still lacking. Here, we examined the prognostic value of a combination of the red cell distribution width (RDW) and carcinoembryonic antigen...

Feb 16th, 2023 - Objective: Red cell distribution width (RDW) is a parameter of complete blood count (CBC). The RDW to platelet count ratio (RPR) is a new index that has been shown to reflect the severity of inflammation. We aim to determine the reference interval...

Feb 3rd, 2023 - Red cell distribution width (RDW) is an easy-to-access marker which is routinely measured in complete blood count (CBC) test. Besides the classic use of RDW as a marker for discriminating different types of anemia, recent studies had indicated the...

Jan 13th, 2022 - The study covered in this summary was published in Research Square as a preprint and has not yet been peer reviewed. Key Takeaways Higher levels of red cell distribution width (RDW), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), neutrophil count, and plat...

Jun 3rd, 2019 - In Reply: We thank Dr. Homler for his question and for highlighting another important disease state, obstructive sleep apnea, in which a high red cell distribution width (RDW) has correlated with disease severity.

Apr 24th, 2017 - WASHINGTON – Red blood cell distribution width provides a novel tool for cardiovascular risk stratification in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), Chang H. Kim, MD, reported at the annual meeting of the American College of Cardiology.
