Effect of aspirin on platelet aggregation in diabetes mellitus. 1982

P K Khosla, and V Seth, and H K Tiwari, and A K Saraya

The effect of aspirin n vitro and in vivo on platelet aggregation has been studied in 13 diabetic subjects without retinopathy, 16 diabetic subjects with retinopathy and 20 age- and sex-matched control subjects. The rate, degree and duration of collagen-induced aggregation were greater in the diabetic patients (p less than 0.05; p less than 0.01; p less than 0.05). The residual aggregation in vivo was greater in all diabetic patients with aspirin, whilst it only occurred in vitro in patients without retinopathy. A decreased latent period was seen in diabetic patients, to a greater extent in those with retinopathy. Significant differences in the rate, degree and duration of arachidonic acid-induced-aggregation were also seen in patients with retinopathy treated with aspirin (p less than 0.05; p less than 0.01; p less than 0.05). Disaggregation only occurred with aspirin in vitro and was more frequently seen in normal subjects.

D001241 Aspirin The prototypical analgesic used in the treatment of mild to moderate pain. It has anti-inflammatory and antipyretic properties and acts as an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase which results in the inhibition of the biosynthesis of prostaglandins. Aspirin also inhibits platelet aggregation and is used in the prevention of arterial and venous thrombosis.
