Abstract
Little is known about factors that affect the composition of contracted blood clots in specific diseases. We investigated the content of polyhedral erythrocytes (polyhedrocytes) formed in blood clots and its determinants in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients. In 97 patients with long-standing T2D [median HbA1c, 6.4% (interquartile range 5.9–7.8)], we measured in vitro the composition of blood clots, including a clot area covered by polyhedrocytes...
