Does sticky blood predict a sticky end? Associations of blood viscosity, haematocrit and fibrinogen with mortality in the West of Scotland [PDF]
, 2003 There is increasing evidence that blood viscosity and its major determinants (haematocrit, plasma viscosity and fibrinogen) are associated with an increased risk of incident cardiovascular events; however, their associations with mortality are not ...

A non-invasive blood viscosity detecting method based on pulse wave [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2020 A non-invasive blood viscosity detection method based on pulse wave is proposed. The method establishes a relationship equation between blood viscosity and peripheral resistance, arterial compliance, and pulse wave waveform characteristics by extracting ...

Increased blood viscosity and red blood cell aggregation in patients with COVID‐19
American journal of hematology/oncology, 2021 The aim of this study was to (1) analyze blood viscosity, red blood cell (RBC) deformability, and aggregation in hospitalized patients with Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID‐19); (2) test the associations between impaired blood rheology and blood coagulation;

Biosensing of Haemorheological Properties Using Microblood Flow Manipulation and Quantification
Sensors, 2022 The biomechanical properties of blood have been used to detect haematological diseases and disorders. The simultaneous measurement of multiple haemorheological properties has been considered an important aspect for separating the individual contributions

American journal of hematology/oncology, 2020 Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a recessive genetic blood disorder exhibiting abnormal blood rheology. Polymerization of sickle hemoglobin, due to a point mutation in the β‐globin gene of hemoglobin, results in aberrantly adhesive and stiff red blood cells (

Blood viscosity and its determinants in the highest city in the world
Journal of Physiology, 2020 Highlanders develop unique adaptative mechanisms to chronic hypoxic exposure, including substantial haemoglobin and haematocrit increases. However, a significant proportion of populations living permanently at high altitude develop maladaptive features ...

THE VISCOSITY OF THE BLOOD [PDF]
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1908 When a fluid traverses a straight tube of sufficient length the individual molecular constituents arrange themselves eventually parallel to the long axis of the tube. Moreover, the cylinder of fluid does not move forward as one unit, but in such a manner that the central portion attains the greatest speed of flow, while the more external layers show a ...

Thixotropic effect of some biochemical factors in ischaemic stroke
Journal of Medical Science, 2018 Background. Yield shear stress (YSS) well characterizes the thixotropic status of blood, that exemplifies a reversible loss of blood fluidity due to a low shear rate. At the stable haematocrit ratio YSS depends mainly on the fibrinogen level. Aim.
