White blood cell count and cardiovascular biomarkers of atherosclerosis.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association with white blood cells (WBC) and atherosclerotic parameters including cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) in the general population. METHODS We investigated the relationship between WBC count and metabolic syndrome components, CAVI and CIMT in 3738 Japanese study participants. RESULTS WBC count weakly correlat...

متن کاملThe 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 کاملWhite Blood Cell Count in Women: Relation to Inflammatory Biomarkers, Haematological Profiles, Visceral Adiposity, and Other Cardiovascular Risk Factors
The role of white blood cell (WBC) count in pathogenesis of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and obesity-related disorders has been reported earlier. Recent studies revealed that higher WBC contributes to atherosclerotic progression and impaired fasting glucose. However, it is unknown whether variations in WBC and haematologic profiles can occur in healthy obese individuals. The aim of this st...
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...
