Abstract:
Objective:To explore the correlation between platelet distribution width (PDW) and the stability of warfarin anticoagulant therapy in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation.Methods:138 patients with persistent atrial fibrillation treated with warfarin in Jiujiang First People′s Hospital from January 2018 to December 2019 were selected. They were divided into groups according to whether PDW increased (PDW decreased group, normal group, PDW increased group) and subgroups stratification was performed. After stratification, the relationship between PDW and the stability of warfarin anticoagulation treatment [expressed as the percentage of time of International normalized ratio(INR) within the treatment target range (TTR)] was analyzed. At the same time, the predictive value of PDW for the stability of warfarin anticoagulation treatment was analyzed.Results:There were significant difference in PDW and TTR among the PDW decreased group, normal group, PDW increased group ( F=30.322, 10.745, all P<0.01). The PDW distribution of patients with different anticoagulation quality was significantly different (χ 2=9.532, P<0.05). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve showed that the area under curve (AUC) of PDW in predicting warfarin anticoagulant stability was 0.621(95% CI: 0.524-0.737). There was significant difference in PDW and TTR among the PDW<14%, 14%-<16%, 16-<18% and ≥18% groups( F=18.075, 11.638, all P<0.01). There was no significant difference in PDW and TTR among the three subgroups of PDW<14%, 14%-<16% and 16-<18% ( P=0.843, P=0.401). There were significant difference in PDW and TTR between the two subgroup of PDW 16-<18%、≥18% ( t=4.154, 6.712, all P<0.01). Conclusions:PDW is correlated with the standard rate of warfarin anticoagulant stability, and can be used to predict the standard rate of warfarin anticoagulant stability.
