Increased Shear Rate Resistance and Fastest Kinetics of Erythrocyte Aggregation in Diabetes Measured With Ultrasound
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To measure with ultrasound the increased erythrocyte aggregation (EA) kinetics and adhesion energy between erythrocytes in patients with type 2 diabetes and poor metabolic control. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Blood samples were analyzed in a Couette rheometer at 32 MHz following shear rate reductions from 500 s(-1) to residual shears of 0 (stasis), 1, 2, 10, 50, 100, and 200 s(-1). The increase in EA was determined with the integrated backscatter coefficient as a function of time and shear rate. RESULTS: The time required to form aggregates was shorter in diabetic patients at shear rates below 200 s(-1) (P < 0.01). Erythrocytes formed larger aggregates in diabetic patients than in control subjects (P < 0.05 at 2 to 100 s(-1)). CONCLUSIONS: Ultrasound can potentially noninvasively demonstrate, in vivo and in situ, the impact of local abnormal EA on arteriovenous flow disorders in diabetes.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
