Blood Viscosity in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Roles of Hyperglycemia and Elevated Plasma Fibrinogen [PDF]
The viscosity of blood is an indicator in the understanding and treatment of disease. An elevated blood viscosity has been demonstrated in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), which might represent a risk factor for cardiovascular complications.

The Role of Blood Viscosity in Infectious Diseases. [PDF]
Blood viscosity is increased by elevated concentrations of acute phase reactants and hypergammaglobulinemia in inflammation. These increase blood viscosity by increasing plasma viscosity and fostering erythrocyte aggregation.

In Vitro Interactions of Amphiphilic Phosphorous Dendrons with Liposomes and Exosomes—Implications for Blood Viscosity Changes [PDF]
Drug delivery by dendron-based nanoparticles is widely studied due to their ability to encapsulate or bind different ligands. For medical purposes, it is necessary (even if not sufficient) for these nanostructures to be compatible with blood.
