Figure 3 Viscosity (mean ± SD) is plotted against shear rate for patients with a hyperviscosity symptom score <10 compared with those 10. There was no difference in whole blood viscosity (A), but a significant difference in viscosity adjusted to a hematocrit (Hct) of 45% at shear rates 4.39 s1 (B). *p < 0.05.
