Red blood cell distribution width is associated with increased interactions of blood cells with vascular wall

Abstract The mechanism underlying the association between elevated red cell distribution width (RDW) and poor prognosis in variety of diseases is unknown although many researchers consider RDW a marker of inflammation. We hypothesized that RDW directly affects intravascular hemodynamics, interaction...
