THE LEUCOCYTE COUNT IN INFLUENZA.

A sex difference in the leucocyte count.

In a study of a group of 325 blood donors between the ages of 18 and 65 years, the total leucocyte and polymorph counts of the females aged 50 to 65 years were found to be significantly lower than those of the corresponding group of male donors. In the whole series of female donors, there were significantly lower total leucocyte and lymphocyte counts with increasing age and a less significant (...

The Leucocyte Count in Weil's Disease

MANY authors have stressed the presence of a polymorphonuclear leucocytosis in Weil's disease (Leptospirosis icterohaemorrhagica), often as one of the distinguishing features from catarrhal jaundice . . . Alston and others (1935), stated that "a polymorph leucocytosis . . . is constantly found in leptospiral jaundice, and is in contrast with a tendency to leucopenia, and an absolute or relative...

Acute appendicitis and the leucocyte count.

The age range was between 3 1/2years and 66 years. The total white ceIl count range was 4000 per c.mm. to 23400 per c.mm. 52 cases (52%) had a ceIl count of more than 10000 per c.mm. while in 48 cases (480/0) the leucocyte count was below 10000 per c.mm. The lowest count of 4000 . per c.mm. was seen in a case of acute appendicitis with free pus (grade 2) and the highest count of 23400 per c.mm....

Fetal leucocyte count in rhesus disease.

The effect of fetal anaemia on the total and differential leucocyte counts was studied by examining blood samples obtained by cordocentesis from 177 previously untransfused rhesus affected fetuses at 17-36 weeks' gestation. The mean fetal total leucocyte, lymphocyte, and monocyte counts were significantly lower than the corresponding values in normal controls and there were significant associat...
