2005, Annals of EpidemiologyCitation Excerpt :However, in women age was no longer significantly associated with plasma viscosity when menopausal status was included in the analysis, suggesting menopausal status was more important to plasma viscosity that age itself in the age range of this population. This finding disagrees with a previous report that change in menopausal status itself was not related to change in plasma viscosity (31). Our definition of menopausal status included an indicator for HRT use which is associated with plasma viscosity (32, 33) and may explain this finding.

2001, Journal of the American College of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :Because shear stress is dependent on both shear rate and fluid viscosity, an increase or decrease in either should cause parallel changes in arterial reactivity. The expected lower blood viscosity in women (31)may still induce lower shear stress, without changing the main results observed in the study. A final limitation of our study was the lack of provocative endothelium-independent vasodilation and constriction, because gender differences of the sensitivity of the vascular smooth muscle are another possible mechanism of shear-induced release of vasoactive substances.
