title: Invariability of blood viscosity after cold testing in patients suffering for Raynaud's disease.
abstract: The paper presents a study on the behaviour of blood and plasma viscosity before and after vasospastic crises induced by cold testing. The study was performed in 10 subjects with Raynaud's disease and in control group of 10 normal subjects. The data obtained do not suggest correlation between variation in viscosity and angiospastic crises.
