Both we and others have found that RBC counts are significantly lower in older compared to younger. However, when gender is factored in, a significant age-related decrease of RBC counts is observed only in men but not in women. Methods qPCR and confocal microscopy were used to detect the pr...
Laboratory testing is performed including hematology (for example, hemoglobin; hematocrit, red blood cell count (RBC); mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC); mean corpuscular volume (MCV), WBC with differential; and platelet count), biochemistry (sodium; ...
Results: Data for WBC (P < 0.001), hemoglobin (P=0.001), hematocrit (P=0.004), MCV (P=0.001), MCH (P=0.003), COHB% (P < 0.001), albumin/ globulin (P < 0.001) and triglyceride (P < 0.001) were higher for smokers than nonsmokers, while total-bilirubin (P < 0.001), total ...
Additional laboratory testing was performed to investigate the cause of the elevated liver enzyme levels. A complete blood cell count revealed a mild normocytic anemia, with the following values: hemoglobin 11.6 g/dL (normal,12-16 g/dL), hematocrit 35.4% (normal, 35%-46%), mean corpuscular ...
Elevated immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels are commonly associated with allergies. However, high IgE levels are also found in several other infectious and non-infectious disorders. Elevated IgE levels typically suggest allergies, eczema, or recurrent skin in
On the first day of menstruation, the complete blood counts (SCC) were as follows: 3.75 × 1012/L erythrocytes (RBC); 110 g/L hemoglobin (Hgb); 0.325 L/L hematocrit (Hct); 23.09 × 109/L leukocytes (WBC); and 241 × 109/L platelets (PLT). These counts showed a decline in ...
(where HBH1 and HCT1 are the initial values of hemoglobin concentration and hematocrit, and HBH2 and HCT2 are the values of these parameters after exercise). Post-exercise biochemical parameters were corrected for changes in the plasma volume [29]. The corrected values were calculated using the...
The majority of TB patients had low values of hemoglobin and hematocrit. Analysis of differential blood cell counts in TB patients showed frequent neutrophilia and lymphocytopenia. Plasma C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were above the reference range in 32 (88.8%) TB patients. Among the 36 ...

SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; O2 saturation, oxygen saturated hemoglobin relative to total hemoglobin; FVC, forced vital capacity; FEV1, forced expiratory volume in 1 s; FENO, fractional exhaled nitric oxide. Statistical significance determined by unpaired Student's t-...
