The purpose of this study was to compare the degree of erythrocyte adhesiveness/aggregation (EAA) reduction of two low-density lipoprotein (LDL) apheretic procedures, namely direct adsorption of lipoproteins (DALI) and dextran sulfate adsorption (DSA). A significant (P < 0.001) reduction of EAA was noted in six hypercholesterolemic patients who underwent a total of 40 apheretic sessions and no difference was noted in the degree of EAA reduction by the two techniques. Thus. being a real-time and point-of-care test, the erythrocyte adhesiveness/aggregation test can be applied in relevant situations of acute ischemia, where therapeutic LDL apheresis could improve the hemorheology of individuals with increased concentrations of cholesterol and inflammatory sensitive proteins.
