White blood cells (WBC) and coronary atherosclerotic disease (C.A.D.)

Association between Helicobacter pylori Infection and Atherosclerotic Coronary Artery Disease

  Background and Objectives: Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in developed countries. In addition to traditional risk factors for cardiovascular disease, nowadays, accumulating evidence indicates that a variety of infections contribute to pathogenesis of atherosclerosis,  (We investigated whether Helicobacter pylori infection is related to Prevalence of coronar...

Microdroplet fluorochromatic assay for the enumeration of white cells (WBCs) in WBC-reduced blood components: validation and application for evaluating newly developed WBC-reduction filters.

BACKGROUND Sensitive and accurate counting methods are required to assess the residual white cells (WBCs) in WBC-reduced blood components. The Nageotte hemocytometer, widely used for this purpose, is cumbersome, and its efficacy is dependent upon the skill of the operator. The performance of a simple fluorochromatic assay using tissue-typing microdroplet trays is presented here. STUDY DESIGN ...
