Previous results of complete blood count of the enrolled same non-diabetic individuals with Covid infection which were studied during their last visit to any out-patient clinic at the hospital before onset of Covid infection were yielded from the archive records via patient information management system of the hospital. The MPV values of age-and sex-matched 160 laboratory confirmed Covid patients without diabetes admitted to the Covid out-patient clinic were detected as 10.49 ± 0.96 and 10.66 ± 0.94 before and after Covid infection in these individuals, respectively (p=0.37). We thought that the statistically significant difference in MPV between diabetic patients before onset of Covid infection and healthy individuals was caused by hyperglycemia in diabetes. ./cache/cord-281064-b69p44uq.txt ./txt/cord-281064-b69p44uq.txt
