  • Title: Effect of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol apheresis on blood viscosity.
    Author: Moriarty PM, Gibson CA, Kensey KR, Hogenauer W.
    Journal: Am J Cardiol; 2004 Apr 15; 93(8):1044-6. PubMed ID: 15081454.
    Abstract:
    Few studies have been designed to study the hemodynamic effects of low-density lipoprotein apheresis, especially on whole blood viscosity. Six patients with cardiovascular disease and hypercholesterolemia underwent a single low-density lipoprotein apheresis, resulting in significant reductions in whole blood viscosity at all shear rates.
