Measuring immature white blood cell forms ("bands") has been considered clinically unnecessary. We performed this study to determine whether elevated band counts, with normal total white blood cells on admission, were associated with infection or in-hospital death. We performed a retrospective cohort...
Many febrile patients have markedly elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and normal white blood cell (WBC) counts. Most of these patients have bacterial infection and no previous underlying disease of impaired WBC functioning. We reviewed patients who visited our ED between November 2003 and ...
Because most Blood test reference ranges (often referred to as 'normal' ranges of Blood test results) are typically defined as the range of values of the median 95% of the healthy population, it is unlikely that a given Blood sample, even from a healthy patient, will show "normal" values...
These patients often have relatively normal blood cell counts and a lower incidence of organomegaly. 2 Thisformofpresentationcanleadtodelaysin thediagnosisofacuteleukemiainadults.Weexperiencedthe case of a 41-year-old male with acute leukemia presenting as bone pain with a normal white blood cell ...
membranes are slightly pale in coloration. She has nonspecific bilateral anterior thigh pain with no abnormalities appreciated. The remainder of her examination is completely normal. Her white blood cell count is elevated at 17,000/mm3, and her hemoglobin (Hb) level is decreased at 7.1g/dL. ...

Monocytes are a special type of white blood cell that help to protect the body against potentially infectious substances, such as bacteria and viruses. Monocytes also ingest dead cells to help clear them from the body. Answer and Explanation:1 ...
