The LY percent in a blood test refers to the percentage of lymphocytes present in the total white blood cell count. Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell that play a key role in the immune system. The LY percent is important in assessing immune function and certain diseases.
LYM percent in a lab blood test refers to the percentage of lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell, found in the total white blood cell count. This value represents the proportion of lymphocytes in the blood and can help in assessing the body's immune response to infection or other health conditions. Normal ranges vary, but typically fall between 20-40% of the total white blood cell count.
A complete blood count (CBC) is the blood test that determines the percentage of each type of white blood cell. It provides information on the total number of white blood cells and differentiates between neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils.
Absolute lymphocyte count is the number of lymphocytes (a certain type of infection fighting white blood cell) in a given volume of blood. This is in distinction to the percentage of white cells that are lymphocytes.
white blood cell count that increases in the presence of an infection
What about a range of 22.2-43.6% as a normal range for lymphocytes, and the number is 47.6%, would this be considered abnormally high?
Granulocytopenia-- A condition characterized by a deficiency of white blood cells.
Lymphocytes make up 25% of the body's WBCs.
If your white blood cell count was low on your blood screening, there are a full range of possibilities. Are you sick? Then that is why. If you are fighting illness, and not being successful (getting sicker) then your white cell count would be low. If you have a low white blood cell count even when you get a cold or the flu or some other less severe sickness, and you start to get better, then it is possible that you have HIV. HIV results in the lowering of white blood cells. There are also certain medications that lower the white blood cell count. If you want more help, message me!
A white blood count measures the total number of white blood cells in the body. White blood cells are an essential part of the immune system and help to fight infections and foreign invaders. Abnormal levels of white blood cells can indicate various medical conditions.
The EOS percent is the percent of white blood cells in the blood. The eosinophil count is used when testing for Allergies.
