Production of circulating platelet aggregates by exercise in coronary patients.
To determine the effect of exercise on the in vivo formation of circulating platelet aggregates in patients with severe coronary artery disease (CAD), platelet aggregate ratios (PAR) (normal 0.8-1.1) were measured immediately before and after treadmill exercise and 30 minutes after exercise in 17 CAD patients (group 1, mean age 55 years), 12 age-matched normal subjects (group 2), and 13 young n...
متن کاملDo patients with thromboembolic disease have circulating platelet aggregates?
Reports of circulating platelet aggregates (ie, microemboli) in thromboembolism and other vascular disorders are based on a method (Wu and Hoak , 1974) in which venous blood is collected via scalp vein needle and tubing into either formaldehyde, which fixes aggregates, or EDTA, which disperses them. The ratio of platelet counts in platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from the two blood samples after cent...
متن کاملIncreased platelet reactivity and circulating monocyte-platelet aggregates in patients with stable coronary artery disease.
OBJECTIVES We sought to examine whether patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) have increased platelet reactivity and an enhanced propensity to form monocyte-platelet aggregates. BACKGROUND Platelet-dependent thrombosis and leukocyte infiltration into the vessel wall are characteristic cellular events seen in atherosclerosis. METHODS Anticoagulated peripheral venous blood from 1...
متن کاملInduction of transient neurological dysfunction in baboons by platelet microemboli.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To investigate experimental mechanisms of reversible cerebral dysfunction, we produced transient focal cerebral ischemia in five baboons by unilateral perfusion of internal carotid territories with platelet microemboli generated endogenously. METHODS Platelet microemboli were formed by incorporating segments of Dacron vascular graft for 1 hour as unilateral carotid arte...
متن کاملPlatelet Size in Throinbocytopenias and Thrombocytosis
Planimetric studies were carried out on canine blood platelets fixed with formaldehyde. In the normal dog, the mean platelet area was 5.25 sq/i (SEM ± 0.34 sq/i). During the first 3 days following acute experimental thrombocytopenia, platelet area increased, averaging 9.5 sq/i (p < 0.01). The reactive thrombocytosis following splenectomy or nephrectomy was not accompanied by a rise in large pla...
