SECTION 1 A 69-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with left upper quadrant pain, splenomegaly, acute renal failure, hyperuricemia, thrombocytopenia (platelet count 32,000/mm), and leukocytosis (leukocyte count 88,000/mm). His medical history was significant for prior diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) by bone marrow biopsy at an outside institution treated with the hypomethylati...

Space flight studies using the Animal Enclosure Module (AEM) make it possible to investigate the role of microgravity on animal physiology and behavior. In this study, we compared the health and well-being of mice housed at different densities in AEM simulators (AEMS), to vivarium shoebox (control) cages (VSBC). A stress assessment battery (SAB) of measures was developed to evaluate mouse healt...

A microscopic examination of an appropriately prepared and well-stained blood smear by a knowledgeable laboratory professional is necessary and clinically useful in a number of circumstances and for a variety of reasons. In this article, an attempt is made to delineate the purpose and criteria for blood smear examination in a variety of circumstances that are encountered in everyday laboratory ...

This report presents white blood cell count findings for persons ages 1-74 years and differential leukocyte count findings for adults ages 25-Bureau of the Census, under a contractual agreement, participated in the design and selection of the sample and carried out the first stage of the field interviewing and certain parts of the statistical processing.

Introduction: Once patients present with pain in the right lower quadrant, one of most common surgical conditions that they have to treat is acute appendicitis. Our aim study value preoperative C - reactive protein and total leucocyte count diagnosing appendicitis correlate its grading as compared Histopathological reports.Material Methods: This hospital based retrospective comparative conducte...

OBJECTIVE To analyze total lymphocyte count, total leukocyte count, hemoglobin levels, nutritional status, CD4+ T-lymphocyte count and viral load as markers of disease progression and/or death in HIV-infected children. METHODS This retrospective cohort study assessed antiretroviral naïve HIV-infected children who were asymptomatic or had mild and/or moderate symptoms. The events of interest w...

conclusions we conclude that intraperitoneal hydrocortisone instillation caused leukocytosis and is thus suggested not to be used in immune-compromised patients. results the study was completed by 120 patients. patients who received intraperitoneal hydrocortisone and hydrocortisone plus bupivacaine had higher white blood cell (wbc) count (p < 0.0001). the patients were similar with respect to d...

Background: T cell immunoglobulin-3 (Tim-3) is identified as a negative regulator of anti-tumor immunity. Recently, Tim-3 expression has been demonstrated in leukemic stem cells (LSCs) of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), however, the alterations of Tim-3, as well as its marker and prognostic significance has yet to be evaluated in patients with AML. The present study is designed to investigate...

Automated blood cell counters have undergone a formidable technological evolution owing to the introduction of new physical principles for cellular analysis and the progressive evolution of software [1,2]. The results have been an improvement in analytical efficiency and an increase in information provided with new parameters. A 61-year-old male patient had the diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell...
