Referring to following statement, I would like to know on how temperature affects blood pressure and blood viscosity.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions


Temperature is believed to affect blood pressure and blood viscosity [3,31]. Blood pressure increases with lower temperature although higher temperature may increase nocturnal levels [32]. Low temperature also increases blood viscosity and heart rate [3] and may trigger circulatory diseases.

There is an inverse relationship between temperature and blood viscosity.

As blood viscosity increases, blood pressure increases.



Aggregated red-cell clusters have a streamlined shape, leading to further viscosity reduction.
