Abstract:

The aim of the experiment was to evaluate the impact of selenium supplementation on white blood cell parameters in the blood of ewes. The total white blood cell (WBC) and differentiation of leukocytes in blood smear were detected by a microscopic analysis, and the CD4<sup>+</sup> and CD8<sup>+</sup> subsets were detected by flow cytometry. A decrease in the count of WBC was recorded during pregnancy; it was statistically significant only in the group supplemented with organic selenium. In the postpartal period there was a statistically significant increase in the percen

Abstract Introduction White blood cells are key components of the immune system. They defend the body against a host of diseases and infections. Various studies have explored the possible influence of dietary nutrients on the white blood cell (WBC) count. If it can be demonstrated that nutrients affect the WBC count, they may offer an inexpensive way of modulating the immune system and in turn, the body's ability to fight against disease and infection. The sample sizes of previous studies, however, have been relatively small. The results have therefore been variable and conflicting. The purpos

Heinz bodies (HBs) are known to interfere with automated hematology in cats, particularly with the white blood cell (WBC) count. We evaluated the influence of feline HBs on the complete blood count (CBC) results obtained using a flow cytometry–based analyzer. We retrospectively selected cats with circulating HBs and reviewed the results of their CBCs, including red blood cell (RBC) indices, basophil/lobularity (Baso) WBC count (WBCB), peroxidase (Perox) WBC count (WBCP), and cytograms. Based on the presence or absence of HB-related artifacts in their Baso cytogram, cats were grouped into Baso-

Abstract After treatment with glucocorticoids (e.g. dexamethasone) or catecholamines (e.g. epinephrine), the white blood cell (WBC) count substantially increases. This is primarily due to WBCs shifting from the marginated to circulating pools (Nakagawa et al., Circulation, 2008) and is traditionally attributed to down-regulation of adhesion molecule expression (Weber et al., J Leukoc Biol, 2004).Recent research has described how mechanical properties determine the radial position of blood cells within the intravascular space (Reasor et. al, Ann Biomed Eng., 2013).

Abstract:

The White Blood Cell (WBC) count is one of the key parameters signaling the health of the immune system. Abnormal WBC counts often signal a systemic insult to the body such as an underlying infection or an adverse side effect to medication. Typically, the blood collected is sent to a central lab for testing, and results come back within hours, which is often inconvenient and may delay time-sensitive diagnosis or treatment. Here, we present the CytoTracker, a fully electronic, microfluidic based instant WBC analyzer with the potential to be used at point-of-care. The CytoTracker is a lightweigh

Abstract:

Increasing clinical and experimental evidence suggests that traumatic brain injury (TBI) elicits an acute inflammatory response. In the present study we investigated whether white blood cells (WBC) are activated in the cerebral microcirculation early after TBI and whether WBC accumulation affects the posttraumatic cerebrovascular response. Twenty-four anesthetized rabbits had chronic cranial windows implanted 3 weeks before experimentation. Animals were divided into four experimental groups and were studied for 7 hours (groups I, IIa, and III) or 2 hours (group IIb). Intravital fluorescence vi

Abstract:

Background White blood cell (WBC) counts and differentials performed using an automated cell counter typically require manual microscopic review. However, this last step is time consuming and requires experienced personnel. We evaluated the clinical efficiency of using flow cytometry (FCM) employing a six-antibody/five-color reagent for verifying automated WBC differentials. Methods A total of 56 apparently healthy samples were assessed using a five-color flow cytometer to verify the normal reference ranges of WBC differentials. WBC differentials of 622 samples were also determined using both

Abstract:

Approximately 1 in 5 patients undergoing cardiac surgery are readmitted within 30 days of discharge. Among the primary causes of readmission are infection and disease states susceptible to the inflammatory cascade, such as diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and gastrointestinal complications. Currently, it is not known if a patient’s baseline inflammatory state measured by crude white blood cell (WBC) counts could predict 30-day readmission. We collected data from 2,176 consecutive patients who underwent cardiac surgery at seven hospitals. Patient readmission data was abstracted

Abstract:

Graying scattergram of White Blood Cell differential (WBC-diff) is often accompanied by blasts in the blood and/or leukocytosis in leukemia patients. Therefore, monitoring White Blood Cell (WBC) and peripheral blast count is crucial for patient management. In contrast, patients with non-graying WBC-diff scattergrams may have varying WBC counts and peripheral blasts. This study aimed to establish the cut-off values of WBC and peripheral blast counts that could predict a non-graying scattergram in leukemia patients.

Preserving the rheological properties of whole blood cells is vital for their smooth passage in the capillaries without causing blockage and disturbances in the microcirculation. To evaluate the effect of mechanical trauma on the rheology of white blood cells during prolonged perfusion with membrane oxygenation (PPMO), 16 in vitro experiments were conducted for 72 hours. The St George Carrimed Filtrometer was used to estimate the plasma white cell filtration rates (P-WFR).

Cystinosis is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease, caused by mutations in the CTNS gene, resulting in multi-organ cystine accumulation. Three forms of cystinosis are distinguished: infantile and juvenile nephropathic cystinosis affecting kidneys and other organs such as the eyes, endocrine system, muscles, and brain, and adult ocular cystinosis affecting only the eyes. Currently, elevated white blood cell (WBC) cystine content is the gold standard for the diagnosis of cystinosis.

To make this protocol more widely applicable the effect of treating whole blood units with riboflavin and varying amounts of light was tested.

Accurate WBC segmentation is challenging due to differences in cell shape, size, and staining quality. The segmented regions are further used to compute the cytoplasm-to-nucleus (C/N) ratio, which plays a vital role in medical diagnostics. Input images are pre-processed

Currently, patients at risk of FN due to cancer chemotherapy, idiosyncratic drug-reactions or congenital neutrophil disorders are monitored at hospital or clinic laboratories. For many patients, effective and frequent monitoring is difficult due to the time required and costs of repeated laboratory visits.
