The White Blood Cell and Differential Count
The simplest test is the WBC count and differential. White cells can be counted manually in specially designed chambers (Neubauer) or with automated counters. The latter are widely used, offering the advantage of higher accuracy and speed over manual techniques. To determine the differential, a drop of blood is thinly spread over a glass slide, air dried, and stained with a Romanofsky stain, mo...
متن کاملSmoking, allergy, and the differential white blood cell count.
Dutch workers have proposed that people with asthma and those smokers who develop chronic airflow obstruction share a common allergic constitution. To study whether smoking itself is associated with indicators of allergy, we have examined 237 men aged 51-61 years (120 smokers, 73 ex-smokers, and 44 non-smokers) who were recruited to a long term study of lung function in 1974, at which time men ...
متن کاملEffect of Thyroid Dysfunctions on Blood Cell Count and Red Blood Cell Indice
Abstract 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 & hyperthyroi...
متن کاملAssociation of White Blood Cell Count With Metabolic Syndrome in Obese Men and Women
Background: Despite the widespread obesity epidemic in the world, not all obese people are equally susceptible to the complications of obesity. Inflammatory factors play an important role in the complications of obesity. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the association of White Blood Cell (WBC) count with metabolic syndrome in overweight/obese men and women. Methods: This cross-sectiona...
متن کاملEvaluation of total and differential white blood cell counts in workers exposed to lead
Introduction: Lead is a toxic heavy metal that has adverse health effects on blood parameters. About 80% of lead produced is used in batteries, especially vehicle batteries. Therefore, the present study aimed to assess the hematological changes, including total and differential white blood cell (WBC) counts in battery workers exposed to lead, and compare with the non-exposed group. Materials a...
