Hemorheological alterations, decreased cerebral microvascular oxygenation and cerebral vasomotion compensation in sickle cell patients
American Journal of Hematology, 08/09/2012
Waltz X et al. – The authors demonstrated that blood rheology could be involved in the reduced cerebral microvascular oxygen saturation (cerebral TOI) in Sickle cell anemia (SS) patients but not in SC patients; vasomotion activity is increased in SS and sickle cell–hemoglobin C disease (SC) patients to compensate for the reduced cerebral TOI.
