Plasma Neutrophil Gelatinase-associated Lipocalin and Leukocyte Differential Count in Children with Febrile Urinary Tract Infection [PDF]
Purpose We aimed to study the association of plasma neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (pNGAL) and leukocyte differential count in children with febrile urinary tract infection (UTI).

Poststroke neutrophil count is predictive of the outcomes of large-artery atherosclerotic stroke and associated with craniocervical atherosclerosis [PDF]
Elevation of the neutrophil count is detrimental to the outcome of patients with stroke. The effect of poststroke neutrophil count on the outcome of patients with large-artery atherosclerosis (LAA) stroke is unclear.

Comparative Diagnostic Performance of the Granulocyte and Neutrophil Counts [PDF]
Objectives: Use of point-of-care testing is increasing, however many haematology analysers can only determine granulocyte count without further differentiation into neutrophils, eosinophils and basophils.

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 ...

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

A genome-wide association study of neutrophil count in individuals associated to an African continental ancestry group facilitates studies of malaria pathogenesis [PDF]
Background 'Benign ethnic neutropenia' (BEN) is a heritable condition characterized by lower neutrophil counts, predominantly observed in individuals of African ancestry, and the genetic basis of BEN remains a subject of extensive research. In this study,
