The Role of Hydrodynamic Factors in Platelet Activation and Thrombotic Events: The Effects of Shear Stress of Short Duration

  • Conference paper
Book cover Fluid Dynamics as a Localizing Factor for Atherosclerosis

Abstract

More than a century after Rokitanski’s [14] incrustation hypothesis. of atherogenesis, good evidence has accumulated that white, platelet rich thrombi are not only involved in the complication of atherosclerosis [6] but also in its genesis. Ross’s detection of a smooth muscle cell proliferation stimulating factor, released from platelets stresses the paramount role of platelets in the development of the disease [15].
