Patients with major depression were found to have increased MPV levels in comparison with participants without depression (p = 0.001). After excluding the subjects with risk factors capable of influencing platelet activity, MPV was still found to be elevated in patients with major depression compared with non-depressed individuals (p < 0.01).
