Key result
In elderly subjects, raised beta-TG levels and diminished platelet density suggested an in vivo release reaction process that did not correlate with the severity of vascular deterioration.
Observational
In elderly subjects, platelet release reactions occur but do not appear to correlate directly with the clinical severity of vascular deterioration.

Does not link platelet release to vascular severity in elderly; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
Siè et al. (1981) conducted an observational in Vascular deterioration. Vascular deterioration was evaluated on Platelet parameters including PPT, beta-TG, platelet density, and granular content. In elderly subjects, raised beta-TG levels and diminished platelet density suggested an in vivo release reaction process that did not correlate with the severity of vascular deterioration.
