Haematocrit in metabolic syndrome

Diabetic Medicine, 2003
In this paper are described normal and insulin resistant subjects, correlating the haematocrit value with M-index during euglycaemic hyperinsulinaemic clamp. The haematocrit value is related negatively with the M-value. We conclude that insulin resistance is a possible factor in determinating the blood viscosity in relation with the red cells/plasma ...

Contribution of the Haematocrit to the Bleeding Time

Haemostasis, 2009
Bleeding time, platelet count and haematocrit were performed in 64 normal, anaemic and polycythaemic subjects with normal renal function and platelet counts over 100 B× 109/l. There was a significant inverse correlation between the bleeding time and haematocrit (r = -0.47) and an inverse correlation of the haematocrit and platelet count (r = -0.46). We

High Altitude, Haematocrit and Age

Nature, 1972
ALTHOUGH the relationship between haematocrit and altitude was established by Hurtado et al.1 in the Andes of Peru, none has been established between haematocrit and the age of permanent residents at different altitudes. Reviewing data collected from healthy volunteers living in Morococha, 4,540 m above sea level, we found that there was always a ...

Re‐assessment of the Reliability of the Haematocrit

British Journal of Haematology, 1972
Summary. Significant quantities of plasma are trapped between the centrifuged red cells in the microhaematocrit. This produces a falsely high haematocrit and mean corpuscular volume, and a falsely low mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration. Trapped plasma accounts for approximately 3% of the normal red‐cell column. Slightly higher values are found

Haematocrit

Sports Medicine, 2003
This review was undertaken, concerning within-subject biological variation and seasonal variation of haematocrit in normal healthy adults and athletes, to find the limits for natural, intra-individual variation in haematocrit values. The terminology and calculations followed well defined theories, from the field of laboratory medicine, about biological

Hyperoxic ventilation at the critical haematocrit

Resuscitation, 2003
During normovolaemic haemodilution arterial O(2)-content decreases exponentially. Nevertheless, tissue oxygenation is first maintained initially by increased organ perfusion and O(2)-extraction. As soon as these compensatory mechanisms are exhausted, myocardial ischaemia and tissue hypoxia occur at an individual 'critical' haematocrit (Hct) value. This

THE PROGNOSTIC VALUE OF HAEMATOCRIT IN ACUTE STROKE

Age and Ageing, 1988
One hundred and twenty-two consecutive patients admitted with acute stroke in a carotid distribution had venous blood taken for haematocrit (Hct), haemoglobin (Hb), white cell count (WCC) and urea estimations. Patients were followed for 12 weeks to determine the influence of haematocrit upon fatality.

Splenic haematocrit and the splenic plasma pool

British Journal of Haematology, 1987
Summary.A method was established for estimation of plasma volume and splenic plasma pool by quantitative scanning using 113mIn labelled transferrin (TF). The method was used in 12 patients with various haematological disorders and degrees of splenomegaly.

INCREASE IN HAEMATOCRIT IN BORDERLINE HYPERTENSIVE MEN

Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 1994
SUMMARY1. Haematologic parameters were measured in untreated borderline hypertensive (BHT) men, and weight and age matched with normotensive men to determine whether previously described increased haematocrit (Hct) in established hypertension is evident in borderline hypertension.2. Haematocrit was significantly increased in BHT men (mean 0.46, s.d.

The changes in blood resistivity with haematocrit and temperature

European Journal of Intensive Care Medicine, 1975
The temperature dependence of the resistivity of blood samples with haematocrits from 16 to 52.5% has been investigated over the temperature range of 22 degrees ot 40 degrees C at a frequency of 100 kHz. The resistivity of whole blood increased with an increase in haematocrit and a decrease in temperature.
