  • Title: [Effects of acute loading of alcohol on platelet aggregation in normal subjects].
    Author: Galante A, Lenci R, Pierangeli L, Filice A, Calcagnini G, Chessa C.
    Journal: Clin Ter; 1989 Feb 28; 128(4):267-70. PubMed ID: 2524316.
    Abstract:
    Ten healthy subjects were submitted to alcohol loading (0.8 g/kg body weight; average alcohol blood level 0.97 g 0/00). The number of platelets, hematocrit and ADP-induced platelet aggregation curves did not show any variation from baseline. Significant changes (p less than 0.05) were observed as regards latent period (increased) and maximum amplitude (reduced) for collagen-induced platelet aggregation. In agreement with others, the authors conclude that alcohol definitely inhibits platelet aggregation.
