Duodenal intraepithelial lymphocyte‐count revisited

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2004
The number of intraepithelial lymphocytes in the duodenum was determined 30 years ago, the suggested normal upper limit being 40 lymphocytes per 100 epithelial cells.Duodenal mucosa was analysed from 18 healthy individuals and 56 consecutive patients biopsied because of epigastralgia (17 cases), diarrhoea (10 cases), oesophagitis (10 cases), iron ...

Effect of Immunotherapy on Peripheral Lymphocyte Count

Archives of Surgery, 1971
Serum protein determinations and total peripheral lymphocyte counts (TPLCs) were made on 61 cancer patients before and after injection of a cancer vaccine. Immunization did not significantly affect any of the serum protein concentrations. On the other hand, all patients treated with cobalt prior to immunization, were noted to have significant decrease ...

Decreased Cytotoxic Lymphocyte Counts in Alexithymia

Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics, 2010
Background: Alexithymia is a psychological trait characterized by a difficulty in verbalizing feelings, which has been associated with a number of illnesses, including bronchial asthma and cancer. Methods: In order to understand how psychological variables such as alexithymia affect physical health, we compared the lymphocyte subsets of men (n = 97 ...

Low Lymphocyte Count and Cardiovascular Diseases

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2011
Inflammation plays a crucial pathophysiological role in the entire continuum of the atherosclerotic process, from its initiation, progression, and plaque destabilization leading ultimately to an acute coronary event. Furthermore, once the clinical event has occurred, inflammation also influences the left ventricular remodelling process.

Precision and accuracy of absolute lymphocyte counts

Clinical Immunology and Immunopathology, 1989
A critique of leukocyte counting using automated hematology instruments is presented. Important preanalytical variables include the anticoagulant and specimen assay delays. The precision of counts is directly related to the number of leukocytes counted.

Prognostic Significance of Absolute Lymphocyte Count, Absolute Monocyte Count, and Absolute Lymphocyte Count to Absolute Monocyte Count Ratio in Follicular Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Clinical Lymphoma Myeloma and Leukemia, 2020
Recently, the lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) has been proposed as an easily determinable prognostic factor in patients with cancer, including lymphomas. The objective of this study was the evaluation of the impact of baseline absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), absolute monocyte count (AMC), and the LMR on the treatment response and prognosis in ...

The CD4 lymphocyte count and risk of clinical progression

Current Opinion in HIV and AIDS, 2006
The CD4 lymphocyte count was identified as a key predictor of risk of AIDS defining diseases almost 20 years ago, early in the HIV epidemic. Several issues concerning its use to predict AIDS have arisen since. These include the difference between short and long-term prediction, the use of CD4 percentage compared with absolute counts, the impact of ...

Effect of Aging on the Peripheral Blood Lymphocyte Count

Journal of Gerontology, 1978
Analysis of 1684 inpatient and 884 outpatient peripheral blood counts revealed the following: (1) The absolute lymphocyte count declines sharply from 5000/microletre to 2000/microletre in the first two decades, remains constant for three decades, then declines at an accelerated rate beginning in the 40s, to reach 1500/microletre at age 90.

Lymphocyte Count as a Prognostic Factor in Childhood Cancer

Pediatric Hematology and Oncology, 1992
To evaluate the significance of the peripheral lymphocyte count in the prognostication of childhood cancer, 173 children with cancer (neuroblastoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, malignant lymphogranuloma, nephroblastoma, Ewing's sarcoma, and rhabdomyosarcoma) were studied.
