Epidemiological characteristics of platelet aggregability.
The epidemiological characteristics of platelet aggregability were established in 958 participants in the Northwick Park Heart Study. The main analyses were based on the dose of adenosine diphosphate at which primary aggregation occurred at half its maximum velocity. Aggregability increased with age in both sexes, was greater in whites than blacks (particularly among men), and tended to decreas...
متن کاملPlatelet Aggregability And Fibrinolytic Activity
s Background:Sexual dimorphism in coronary artery disease (CAD) mortality is attributed to the cardioprotective effects of estrogen.This is reinforced by the observation that incidence of myocardial infarction is higher in menstrual phase, corresponding with low estrogen levels, in people who are predisposed to CAD due to the presence of modifiable risk factors. Cyclical variability of estrogen...
متن کاملPlatelet aggregability in cardiac syndrome X.
AIMS To assess platelet aggregability at rest and in response to exercise in patients with cardiac syndrome X (anginal chest pain, ST-segment depression on exercise, angiographically normal coronary arteries). METHODS AND RESULTS We performed a symptom/sign-limited exercise test in 31 patients with syndrome X, 25 patients with coronary artery disease and 29 healthy subjects. Platelet aggregab...
متن کاملInhibition of platelet aggregability by losartan in essential hypertension.
Most clinical events associated with hypertension have a thrombotic component. Losartan is a selective, competitive antagonist of the thromboxane A2 receptor in experiments performed in isolated vascular strips and in human and rat platelet-enriched plasma. In this study, we investigated for the first time whether losartan at therapeutic doses has an effect on platelet aggregability and indexes...
متن کاملNonreversible loss of platelet aggregability induced by calcium deprivation.
Platelets lose their ability to aggregate when deprived of divalent cations. This usually was studied by incubating human citrated platelet-rich plasma with EDTA or EGTA and then adding enough CaCl2 to combine with the chelating agent. Incubation for 5-7 min at 37 degrees C caused irreversible loss of the platelets' ability to adhere to glass and to aggregate with ADP, epinephrine, A23187, vaso...
