Erythrocyte aggregation, plasma fibrinogen concentrations and serum protein fractions have been studied in 19 diabetic patients without retinopathy, 18 patients with retinopathy and 41 non-diabetic controls. — Significant differences in the parameters were observed between diabetics and controls. The differences between the diabetics with and without retinopathy were not significant. — The role of abnormal erythrocyte aggregation in the development of diabetic retinopathy is discussed. — Striking parallels were found with similar findings concerning platelet aggregation in diabetics.
