title: [Increase of erythrocyte aggregation in hypertensive men with dyslipidemia].
abstract: We have already reported that erythrocyte aggregation (EA) is increased in hypertensive subjects. To study the influence of other risk factors in EA, we have measured aggregation index IA and disaggregation shear rate threshold (gamma c) by a laser technique and the biochemical parameters in 16 normotensive normocholesterolemic subjects (NT/NCT) and 45 hypertensive subjects where 17 were normocholesterolemic (HT/NCT), 18 were pure hypercholesterolemic (HT/HCTIIa) and 10 were hypercholesterolemic hypertriglyceridemic (HT/HCTIIb). The results show that IA and gamma c are more important in HT/NCT than NT/NCT patients and much more in patients with hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia. The cumulative effects of hypertension and hyperlipidemia merit take into consideration in pathophysiology of cardiovascular complications and could help to new strategy therapeutic developments for treatment of these complications.
