Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the clinical values of platelet parameters in patients with digestive tumors. A total of 974 people were classified into three groups: malignant group, patients with digestive malignant tumors; benign group, patients with benign tumors; and normal group: healthy individuals. Compared with the benign and normal groups, the malignant group showed significantly increased platelet count (PLT) and plateletcrit (PCT) and significantly reduced mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet-large cell rate (P-LCR, p < 0.001). Elevated PLT and PCT and reduced MPV and P-LCR indicated poor overall survival in patients with digestive tumors. PLT, PCT, MPV and P-LCR were proven to be predictive biomarkers for patients with digestive malignant tumors. Elevated PLT and PCT or decreased MPV and P-LCR indicated poor overall survival.
