Comparison of platelet function between sedentary individuals and competitive athletes at rest.

Open access

Abstract

BACKGROUND: There are controversial evidences on the effect of different types and workloads of physical exercise on primary hemostasis. In particular, little is known on the chronic influence of a strenuous and regular aerobic training regimen on platelet function. METHODS: The aim of this investigation was to compare platelet function between sedentary controls and trained athletes at rest and to evaluate whether a greater amount of exercise performed in professional cyclists may contribute to increased platelet chronic responsiveness compared to both elite cyclists and sedentary individuals. Platelet's ability to adhere and aggregate was assayed following a 12-24 h resting period in 49 active professional male road cyclists, 40 elite male cyclists and 43 matched sedentary healthy male volunteers, by the platelet function analyzer 100 (PFA-100). RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: Mean values of the collagen-epinephrine test did not differ between controls and athletes (sedentary controls: 111 +/- 33 s; elite athletes: 113 +/- 26 s, p = 0.93; professional athletes: 120 +/- 33 s; p = 0.33), whereas mean values of the collagen-ADP test displayed a slightly but significant trend towards decreased values when comparing sedentary controls (83 +/- 21 s) with either elite (77 +/- 11 s, p < 0.01) or professional (75 +/- 16 s, p < 0.01) athletes. CONCLUSION: The trend towards slightly lower collagen-ADP values are suggestive for a modest but significant chronic activation of primary hemostasis, highlighting the need to set appropriate reference ranges for the PFA-100 when evaluating primary hemostasis in physically active subjects.

  • Some studies have shown that failure to mix the primary blood tube most probably will not introduce a bias in many test results.

    “Some studies have shown that failure to mix the primary blood tube most probably will not introduce a bias in many test results.”

    From Joint EFLM-COLABIOCLI Recommendation for venous blood sampling (2018) · cites this paper as [92]

    The Methods (page unavailable) describe blood collection and processing, but do not say whether the primary tubes were mixed or assess the effect of not mixing them. The Conclusion (page unavailable) concerns platelet-function results in athletes, not bias across laboratory tests. Searches for failure to mix tubes and for tube inversion found no passage addressing the claim. (LLM, conf=0.76)

  • If applied for longer than 1 min, a tourniquet induces a substantial variation of blood composition due to extravasation of water and small molecules such as ions from the vessel into the subendothelial space.

    The Methods section describes venipuncture and sample handling but does not discuss tourniquet duration.

  • Tourniquets cause a temporary occlusion of veins and temporary venous stasis.

    “Tourniquets cause a temporary occlusion of veins and temporary venous stasis.”

    From Joint EFLM-COLABIOCLI Recommendation for venous blood sampling (2018) · cites this paper as [86]

    The Methods section describes blood collection by venipuncture but does not mention tourniquets, venous occlusion, or venous stasis. Searches for those terms and for tourniquet use during blood sampling found no passage addressing the claim. (LLM, conf=0.75)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Most changes from tourniquet application are negligible within 1 min but can become clinically significant afterwards.

    “Most of these changes are negligible within 1 min of the application of the tourniquet, but can become clinically significant afterwards [84], [85], [86].”

  • During tourniquet application, large molecules such as lipoprotein particles, proteins and protein-bound substances, cells and coagulation factors remain within the vessel, so their concentration progressively increases.

    “During that process, large molecules such as lipoprotein particles, proteins and protein-bound substances, cells and coagulation factors remain within the vessel, so that their concentration progressively increases.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
