There was no need for an oven. I chose to make chocolate donuts with chocolate glaze, topped with St. Pattyâs Day sprinkles. I adapted a recipe for the donuts from Wilton and adapted the glaze from a recipe I found on myrecipes.com from Sunset magazine. Then I headed to a local bakery at my Maceyâs grocery store.
Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a machine-calculated measurement of the average size of platelets found in blood and is typically included in blood tests as part of the CBC.PV is higher when there is destruction of platelets. This may be seen in inflammatory bowel disease, immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), myeloproliferative diseases and Bernard-Soulier syndrome.
Usually, younger platelets are larger than older platelets. What Does a High Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) Mean? A high MPV is usually a sign that there are more young platelets circulating in your bloodstream. If you have had a procedure such as major surgery, your body is using up platelets to repair the cuts to the blood vessels. In response, your bone marrow releases more of the young, larger platelets, and your MPV rises. A high MPV with a low platelet count shows the bone marrow is actively producing platelets, but they have been or are being used up by some process in your body. Your doctor will assess this in light of what conditions or procedures you have had, and do further tests if needed.
