The maximal IPF% among the Covid-19 group was higher than the stable group and similar to the AMI group. The maximal IPC in Covid-19 was higher than the maximal IPC in both the stable and AMI groups (COVID-19 14.4 × 109/L [9.4-20.9], AMI 10.9 × 109/L [7.6-15.2], P = 0.0035, Stable 7.55 × 109/L [5.55-10.5], P less then 0.0001). Patients with Covid-19 have increased immature platelets indices compared to stable patients with cardiovascular risk factors, and as the disease progresses also compared to AMI patients. The enhanced platelet turnover and reactivity may have a role in the development of thrombotic events in Covid-19 patients.Left atrial appendage (LAA) is a common site of thrombus formation especially in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Complete surgical LAA closure (cSLC) is the surgical aim, however incomplete surgical LAA closure (iSLC) is not rare. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the risk of thromboembolic complications (TEC) in AF patients with iSLC after mitral valve surgery. A total of 101 AF patients (mean age 61.8 ± 11.8 years; male32), who underwent surgical suture ligation during mitral valve surgery were enrolled in this retrospective study. All patients underwent transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) at least 3 months after surgery. The primary outcome was the occurrence of TEC including any ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack, coronary or peripheral embolism. TEE examination revealed cSLC in 66 (65.3%) and iSLC in 35 patients (34.6%). A total of 12 TECs (11.9%) occurred during a mean follow-up time of 41.1 ± 15.6 months. TECs were found to be significantly higher in the iSLC group (25.7% vs 4.5%, p = 0.002). The prevalence of iSLC was significantly higher in patients with TEC (75 vs. 29.2%, p = 0.002). High CHA2DS2-VASc Score and iSLC were found to be independent predict
