Zusammenfassung
Die vermehrte Adhäsionsneigung der Thrombocyten von Patienten mit Multipler Sklerose wird bestätigt. In der Gruppe der aktiven Fälle besteht eine signifikante Korrelation zwischen der Adhäsionsneigung und dem Ausmaß der Erkrankung im Sinne der klinisch faßbaren Körperbehinderung. Keine Beziehung bestand zwischen einem chronischen Verlauf der Erkrankung und erhöhter Thrombocytenadhäsion. Der Mechanismus der Adhäsionsneigung wird kurz diskutiert.
Summary
Increased platelet stickiness in patients with multiple sclerosis is confirmed. Within a group of active cases there is a significant correlation between the extent of the disease, as evidenced by clinical disability, and adhesiveness. Chronicity of the disease was not associated with increased stickiness. The mechanism of increased adhesiveness in briefly discussed.
