Is higher lymphocyte count a potential strategy for preventing chronic kidney disease in patients receiving long-term dasatinib treatment?

Journal of Pharmaceutical Health Care and Sciences, 2023
Background Dasatinib, which is used to treat treating chronic myeloid leukemia, induces increases in blood lymphocytes during the treatment. In addition, neutrophil–lymphocyte count ratio (NLR) is associated with the related to development of chronic ...

Predictive value of lymphocytopenia and the neutrophil-lymphocyte count ratio for severe imported malaria [PDF]

, 2013
Background: Lymphocytopenia has frequently been described in patients with malaria, but studies on its association with disease severity have yielded conflicting results. The neutrophil/lymphocyte count ratio (NLCR) has been introduced as a parameter for

Relative lymphocyte count as an indicator of 3-year mortality in elderly people with severe COPD

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2018
Background Prognostic stratification of elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is difficult due to the wide inter-individual variability in the course of the disease.

Mature and Immature/Activated Cells Fractionation: Time for a Paradigm Shift in Differential Leucocyte Count Reporting?

Diagnostics, 2021
Leucocytes, especially neutrophils featuring pro- and anti-cancerous characteristics, are involved in nearly every stage of tumorigenesis. Phenotypic and functional differences among mature and immature neutrophil fractions are well reported, and their ...

Preoperative neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and outcome from coronary artery bypass grafting [PDF]

, 2007
Background: An elevated preoperative white blood cell count has been associated with a worse outcome after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Leukocyte subtypes, and particularly the neutrophil-lymphocyte (N/L) ratio, may however, convey superior ...

Performance Evaluation of High Fluorescence Lymphocyte Count: Comparability to Atypical Lymphocyte Count and Clinical Significance [PDF]

Laboratory Medicine, 2018
To investigate the association between high-fluorescence lymphocyte cell (HFLC) and atypical lymphocyte (AL) counts, and to determine the clinical significance of HFLC.We compared automated HFLC and microscopic AL counts and analyzed the findings. Patient clinical data for each specimen were reviewed.A total of 320 blood specimens were included.

CD4+ T-Lymphocyte Count/CD8+ T-Lymphocyte Count Ratio: Surrogate for HIV Infection in Infants? [PDF]

Journal of Tropical Pediatrics, 2012
Early diagnosis and treatment is necessary to prevent HIV-infected infants progressing to AIDS. Antibody testing is not confirmatory before the age of 18 months and PCR not widely available in resource-poor settings. We studied the accuracy of CD4(+) T-lymphocyte count, CD4% and CD4/CD8 ratio as surrogate markers of infant HIV infection.Two hundred and

Effect of dimethyl fumarate on lymphocyte subsets in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis Journal - Experimental, Translational and Clinical, 2020
Background In patients treated with dimethyl fumarate, absolute lymphocyte count decline typically occurs during the first year and then plateaus; early drops have been associated with the development of severe prolonged lymphopenia.
