Global REACH 2018: High Blood Viscosity and Hemoglobin Concentration Contribute to Reduced Flow-Mediated Dilation in High-Altitude Excessive Erythrocytosis

open access: yesHYPERTENSION, 2019
Excessive erythrocytosis (EE; hemoglobin concentration [Hb] ≥21 g/dL in adult males) is associated with increased cardiovascular risk in highlander Andeans.

Shear viscosity and nonlinear behaviour of whole blood under large amplitude oscillatory shear [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We investigated experimentally the rheological behavior of whole human blood subjected to large amplitude oscillatory shear under strain control to assess its nonlinear viscoelastic response.

GEOMAGNETIC ACTIVITY AND EFFECTIVENESS OF MILLIMETER ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION IN UNSTABLE ANGINA TREATMENT

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2014
There had been performed a research of an effectiveness of millimeter electromagnetic radiation (MM EMR) use in patients with an unstable angina (UA) at periods of a lower  (daily value of Kp-index  16,19±0,18) and a higher (daily value of Kp-index 17,25±

Disorders of Blood Viscosity

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 1993
In clinical situations associated with disturbed blood flow, the primary focus is usually on improving cardiovascular performance. However, during recent decades, both basic science and clinical literature reports have presented evidence that the flow properties of blood must also be considered in these situations.

Association between Blood Viscosity and Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Patients with Arterial Hypertension in a High Altitude Setting

open access: yesCureus, 2019
Background Blood viscosity is a determinant of vascular resistance, and it is expected to contribute to blood pressure. Arterial hypertension (HTN), in addition to other cardiovascular risk factors, contribute to cardiac morbidity.

Blood Rheology and Platelet Function in Untreated Early-Stage Essential Hypertensives Complicated with Metabolic Syndrome

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hypertension, 2012
We examined whether hemorheology and platelet function are affected in essential hypertensives (EHTs) of the World Health Organization stage I when complicated with metabolic syndrome (Mets).

The viscosity of laked blood [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1906
It was found that the viscosity of laked blood prepared by the process of freezing, is very much less than the viscosity of defibrinated blood.

Empagliflozin influences blood viscosity and wall shear stress in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus compared with incretin-based therapy

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2018
BackgroundCardiovascular protection following empagliflozin therapy is not entirely attributable to the glucose lowering effect. Increased hematocrit might influence the shear stress that is the main force acting on the endothelium, regulating its anti ...

Increased plasma viscosity as a reason for inappropriate erythropoietin formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The aim of this study was to examine whether altered plasma viscosity could contribute to the inappropriately low production rate of erythropoietin (EPO) observed in patients suffering from hypergammaglobulinemias associated with multiple myeloma or ...
