Platelet reactivity, fibrinogen and smoking
European Journal of Haematology, 198740 young healthy male volunteers (20 habitual smokers and 20 non‐smokers) were investigated with respect to platelet reactivity, plasma fibrinogen and coagulation factor VIII. Smokers had significantly lower systolic blood pressures and higher venous platelet counts.

Platelet Reactivity: Is There a Role to Switch?
Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2015Antiplatelet agents are essential to prevent thrombotic events in patients with coronary artery disease, especially in those with acute coronary syndrome or undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, the benefits of antiplatelet therapy always come at a price of increased risk for bleeding, and the clinical values of antiplatelet ...

Lack of effect of exercise on platelet activation and platelet reactivity
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1984The effects of brief maximal exertion on platelet activation and reactivity have been studied in normal subjects. Although initial studies in seven subjects showed apparent exercise-induced platelet activation and enhanced platelet reactivity, these findings could not be confirmed in 13 subjects studied subsequently.

[Platelet reactivity index by Grotemeyer].
Hamostaseologie, 2004In 1974 Wu and Hoak described a method for determining circulating platelet aggregates. This method was modified by Grotemeyer in 1983. The platelet reactivity index (PR) is based on the ratio of platelet aggregates in blood samples obtained in different buffer solutions.

Platelet reactivity and thrombogenicity in postmenopausal women
Menopause, 2013Age-adjusted incidence of cardiovascular disease, including myocardial infarction, is significantly lower in premenopausal women than in men, which is thought to be caused by the cardioprotective effects of estrogen. However, there is a consistent increase in the incidence of coronary artery disease in postmenopausal women in comparison with ...

Exaggerated platelet reactivity in major depression
American Journal of Psychiatry, 1996This study investigated whether depressed patients exhibit exaggerated platelet reactivity.In vivo platelet activation, secretion, and dose-response aggregation were measured in 12 depressed patients and eight normal comparison subjects after overnight bed rest and following orthostatic challenge.The depressed patients exhibited increased platelet ...

Smoking, Platelet Reactivity and Fibrinogen
1990It is universally accepted that smoking constitutes a major independent risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis as well as arterial thrombosis formation and its most serious consequences, i.e., coronary artery disease/acute myocardial infarction and stroke (A Report of the Surgeon General, 1983).

Caffeine Stimulates in vivo Platelet Reactivity
Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1988ABSTRACT The effect of coffee drinking on platelet reactivity was studied in 12 healthy subjects. Plasma beta‐thromboglobulin concentration was determined before and one hour after administration of 100 mg of caffeine, corresponding to one cup of coffee.

Platelet-activating factor and airway reactivity
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1989Le PAF est un puissant agent chimiostatique pour les eosinophiles i vitro et peut provoquer une eosinophilie et une reactivite des voies respiratoires in vitro. Les eosinophiles des asthmatiques produisent plus de PAF que ceux des sujets normaux.

Evaluation of Platelet Reactivity in Diabetes Mellitus
Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1986ABSTRACT. Seventeen patients with insulin‐dependent diabetes mellitus, all below the age of 45 years, were studied. Five of them had retinopathy but no other micro‐ or macrovascular diabetic complications. None of them had any other concurrent disorder or were on any medication but insulin.
