Hemodynamic effects of red blood cell aggregation.
The influence of red blood cell (RBC) aggregation on blood flow in vivo has been under debate since early 1900's, yet a full understanding has still has not been reached. Enhanced RBC aggregation is well known to increase blood viscosity measured in rotational viscometers. However, it has been demonstrated that RBC aggregation may decrease flow resistance in cylindrical tubes, due to the format...
متن کاملEffects of red blood cell aggregation on myocardial hematocrit gradient using two approaches to increase aggregation.
The normal transmyocardial tissue hematocrit distribution (i.e., subepicardial greater than subendocardial) is known to be affected by red blood cell (RBC) aggregation. Prior studies employing the use of infused large macromolecules to increase erythrocyte aggregation are complicated by both increased plasma viscosity and dilution of plasma. Using a new technique to specifically alter the aggre...
متن کاملIncrement in molecular weight of poly (dimethylamino-ethylmethacrylate) based polymers cause strong red blood cell aggregation but not hemolytic response.
summary Polycations are frequently reported to tailor drug delivery systems, there is still a need to better correlate their macromolecular features with their biocompatibility, in particular with blood. In this view, we have analysed the RBC aggregation and hemolysis response caused by poly (dimethylamino-ethylmethacrylate) or poly(ethyleneimine) under a free form, i.e. without their prelimina...
متن کاملEffects of storage duration and temperature of human blood on red cell deformability and aggregation.
Blood samples used in hemorheological studies may be stored for a period of time, the effects of storage have yet to be fully explored. This study evaluated the effects of storage temperature (i.e., 4 degrees C or 25 degrees C) and duration on RBC deformability and aggregation for blood from healthy controls and from septic patients. Our results indicate that for normal blood, RBC deformability...
متن کاملEffect of Thyroid Dysfunctions on Blood Cell Count and Red Blood Cell Indice
Abstract Background Thyroid hormones have a crucial role in metabolism and proliferation of blood cells. Thyroid dysfunction induces different effects on blood cells such as anemia, erythrocytosis leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and in rare cases causes’ pancytopenia. It also alter RBC indices include MCV, MCH, MCHC and RDW. Thus this study attempted to evaluate effect of hypo & hyperthyroi...
