To study the aggregation activity of platelets in patients with ischemic heart disease depending on the long-term intake of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA). Material and methods. The study included: 116 patients with coronary artery disease with stable angina pectoris, taking a standard dose of aspirin 75 mg/day. during various terms. Patients with SSN were divided into 4 groups according to the duration of taking ASA. Platelet aggregation was measured using a laser platelet aggregation analyzer Alat-2 Biol, with computer processing according to the AGGR program. Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) in concentrations of 0.1, 1.0, 5.0 mmol/l was used as an inductor. The results of the study of patients taking ASA for more than 5 years showed that spontaneous aggregation and ADP-induced platelet aggregation were higher than in patients taking the drug for less than 5 years. Statistically significant differences were observed when compared with a group of patients taking ASA for less than a year (spontaneous aggregation of 1.7±0.09 (p<0.05), 0.1 μm ADP-induced aggregation of 6.58±0.86 (p<0.05), 1.0 μm ADP-induced aggregation of 16.51±1.63 (p<0.01), 5.0 μm ADP-induced aggregation 58.44±3.72 (p<0.01). Conclusion. Thus, the results showed that with an increase in the duration of aspirin intake, there was a change in both spontaneous and ADP-induced platelet aggregation with a statistically significant increase.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
