Insulin resistance in school-aged girls with overweight and obesity is strongly associated with elevated white blood cell count and absolute neutrophil count [PDF]
BackgroundThe primary objective of the study was to discuss the sex differences in insulin resistance-induced changes in metabolic and inflammatory markers in school-aged children with overweight and obesity.MethodsA cross-sectional study of 800 children

Associations between absolute neutrophil count and lymphocyte-predominant breast cancer [PDF]
Introduction: Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) might be associated with host-cell mediated immunity, which could be partly reflected by peripheral blood cell counts.

Clozapine Metabolism is Associated With Absolute Neutrophil Count in Individuals With Treatment-Resistant Schizophrenia [PDF]
Up to one-third of those with schizophrenia fail to respond to standard antipsychotics and are considered to have treatment-resistant schizophrenia, a condition for which clozapine is the only evidence-based medication.

Mediation and longitudinal analysis to interpret the association between clozapine pharmacokinetics, pharmacogenomics, and absolute neutrophil count [PDF]
Clozapine is effective at reducing symptoms of treatment-resistant schizophrenia, but it can also induce several adverse outcomes including neutropenia and agranulocytosis. We used linear mixed-effect models and structural equation modelling to determine

Absolute lymphocyte and neutrophil counts in neonatal ischemic brain injury [PDF]
Objectives: This study aimed to identify differences in absolute neutrophils, lymphocytes, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio between neonates with two forms of ischemic brain injury, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, and acute ischemic stroke, compared ...

Incorporating Absolute Phagocyte Count With Absolute Neutrophil Count as a Measure for Safe Discharge for Pediatric Oncology Febrile Neutropenia: A Pilot Study. [PDF]
Adequate bone marrow recovery is a discharge requirement after admission for febrile neutropenia in oncology patients, without specific threshold in consensus guidelines. In January 2016, our institution implemented count recovery criteria of absolute neutrophil count ≥100 cells/μL and absolute phagocyte count ≥300 cells/μL compared with prior criteria

Low Absolute Neutrophil Counts in African Infants [PDF]
Infants of African origin have a lower normal range of absolute neutrophil counts than white infants; this fact, however, remains under appreciated by clinical researchers in the United States. During the initial stages of a clinical trial in Malawi, the authors noted an unexpectedly high number of infants with absolute neutrophil counts that would be ...
