vivo red blood cell labeling. After red blood cell labeling, 13 subjects underwent maximal supine bicycle exercise. Radioactivity, analyzed with a well counter, was measured in heparinized venous blood samples drawn at rest and during peak exercise. Changes in activity were compared with changes in erythrocyte count. Activity and erythrocyte counts increased during exercise in all 13 subjects. ...

Sporadically, hematology analyzers generate grossly erroneous results for one or several parameters of the complete blood count (CBC) because of a characteristic or peculiarity of an individual patient specimen. This article presents three cases of relatively less well-known analytic errors of this sort, falsely elevating white blood cell count and platelet count and decreasing total white bloo...

Background: While absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) are associated with prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) overall (OS), the influence of previous chemotherapy on blood cell counts may necessitate an evaluation baseline ALC NLR in first-line patients.

In the present study, toxicity was developed by oral administration of AFB1 at a dose of (2μg/kg body weight) for 45 days in male mice. Curcuma longa (100 and 200 mg/kg body weight) and Curcumin (50 and 100 mg/kg body weight) were given individually and in combination with AFB1 for 45 days. At the end of 45 days, the blood samples were collected from various groups by heart puncture in eppendro...

Higher white blood cell counts in smokers compared with nonsmokers have been well documented, but the longitudinal relation between changes in smoking and changes in white blood cells has not been well described. Since 1984, data have been collected semiannually by the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (MACS), a four-center prospective cohort study of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in ho...

BACKGROUND Thyroid hormones have a crucial role in metabolism and proliferation of blood cells. Thyroid dysfunction induces different effects on blood cells such as anemia, erythrocytosis leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and in rare cases causes' pancytopenia. It also alter RBC indices include MCV, MCH, MCHC and RDW. Thus this study attempted to evaluate effect of hypo & hyperthyroidism on blood c...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the absolute nucleated red blood cell and lymphocyte count is elevated in term, appropriate-for-gestational-age infants born to women with asthma. STUDY DESIGN We compared absolute nucleated red blood cell counts taken during the first 12 hours of life in two groups of term, vaginally delivered, appropriate-for-gestational-age infant...

Background: The white blood cell count is often used to assess the maternal condition after an operative vaginal delivery. However, it remains unknown whether on day delivery associated with sequential adverse outcomes, especially infectious complications. aim of this study was investigate association between and events.
