  • Title: [Whole blood and plasma viscosity and erythrocyte aggregation in power plant repairmen].
    Author: Kossmann S, Turczyński B, Pierzchała W, Maślankiewicz A, Chorazy M.
    Journal: Med Pr; 1988; 39(5):329-37. PubMed ID: 3254440.
    Abstract:
    Forty-nine workers employed at power plants repairs underwent examinations and tests of: circulatory system, whole blood and plasma viscosity, red cell aggregation, concentration and electrophoretic picture of serum proteins, levels of glucose in blood and cholesterol and beta lipoproteins in serum. Ten per cent of the test workers exhibited slight deviations of the circulatory system. More pronounced changes, as compared to controls, were found in rheological factors: corrected blood and plasma viscosity and red cell aggregation were increased but hematocrit was decreased. Biochemical investigations showed a fall in serum total proteins and albumins and a rise in serum cholesterol and beta lipoproteins.
