Changes of whole blood viscosity, plasma viscosity and red blood cell filtrability in patients with obese fatty liver in the process of recovery.
Year: 1987
Type: article
Study design: Clinical Trial
Abstract: Seven hundred and fifty mg niceritrol was administrated daily to 9 patients with obese fatty liver for 8 weeks after 8 weeks of dietary treatment. Blood viscosity was decreased at shear rate 37.6 sec-1 and 376 sec-1 after 4 weeks of the administration.RBC-filtrability was increased significantly after 8 weeks of administration (p< 0.05). Plasma viscosity was decreased at shear rate of 37.6 sec-1 (p< 0.02), 75.2 sec-1 (p< 0.02) and 376 sec-1 (p< 0.01) after 4 weeks of the administration, respectively.
