Blood rheology in marine mammals [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2010
The field of blood oxygen transport and delivery to tissues has been studied by comparative physiologists for many decades. Within this general area, the particular differences in oxygen delivery between marine and terrestrial mammals has focused mainly ...

Blood Rheology: Key Parameters, Impact on Blood Flow, Role in Sickle Cell Disease and Effects of Exercise [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Blood viscosity is an important determinant of local flow characteristics, which exhibits shear thinning behavior: it decreases exponentially with increasing shear rates. Both hematocrit and plasma viscosity influence blood viscosity.

Effects of regular exercise on blood rheology [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Regular physical activity (RPA) promotes cardiovascular health but its effects on blood flow and rheology characteristics remain unclear. This study compared hemorheological parameters between healthy adults who regularly jogged (n = 35) and sedentary ...

Blood rheology and aging. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Geriatr Cardiol, 2013
The flow properties of blood play significant roles in tissue perfusion by contributing to hydrodynamic resistance in blood vessels. These properties are influenced by pathophysiological processes, thereby increasing the clinical relevance of blood rheology information.

Hemodynamic simulation in the aortic arch under anemic, diabetic, and healthy blood flow conditions using computational fluid dynamics. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE
This study examines the hemodynamic impact of anemic, diabetic, and healthy blood conditions in the human aortic arch using computational modeling. Blood rheology was represented by the shear-thinning Carreau-Yasuda model, and simulations were carried ...

Sub-Fractions of Red Blood Cells Respond Differently to Shear Exposure Following Superoxide Treatment

open access: yesBiology, 2021
Red blood cell (RBC) deformability is an essential component of microcirculatory function that appears to be enhanced by physiological shear stress, while being negatively affected by supraphysiological shears and/or free radical exposure.
