  • Title: [Value and study methods of hemorheology in vascular pathology and pharmacology].
    Author: Zannad F, Stoltz JF.
    Journal: Arch Mal Coeur Vaiss; 1990 Mar; 83 Spec No 2():33-6. PubMed ID: 2111685.
    Abstract:
    The growth of modern, reliable, reproducible and relatively inexpensive techniques of studying micro and macrorheological changes has confirmed the role of haemorheology in the physiology of the microcirculation and the consequences of its disturbance in vascular and ischemic pathology. These abnormalities can be corrected by pharmacological agents including several vasoactive molecules which owe at least some of their therapeutic effects to their action on blood rheology especially on the red blood cells. Systematic study of the rheological effects of these vasoactive, anti-ischemic substances is now possible and necessary.
