Normal blood leukocyte concentration values.
TLDR
Absolute blood leukocyte counts were determined in 291 normal individuals (226 Caucasian and 65 Negro), using modern, electronic leukocytes counting methods.Abstract:
Absolute blood leukocyte counts were determined in 291 normal individuals (226 Caucasian and 65 Negro), using modern, electronic leukocyte counting methods. Two hundred cell differential counts of coverslip smears stained with Wright’s stain were done. Normal mean values and 95% limits expressed as cells per cu. mm. were: band neutrophils 500 (100 to 2,100); segmented neutrophils 3,000 (1,100 to 6,050); total neutrophils 3,650 (1,830 to 7,250); lymphocytes 2,500 (1,500 to 4,000); monocytes 430 (200 to 950); eosinophils 150 (0 to 700); basophils 30 (0 to 150). No clinically significant differences between Negroes and Caucasians were found.read more

Ethnic and sex differences in the total and differential white cell count and platelet count.
TL;DR: Africa and Afrocaribbeans had lower total white cell, neutrophil and platelet counts than Caucasians and counts were lower in Africans than in Afro caribbean, and sex and ethnic origin should be taken into consideration when assessing white cell and platelets counts.

TL;DR: In this paper, the optimal staging evaluation at the time of initial diagnosis of mycosis fungoides or the Sezary syndrome was determined based on histopathologic evaluation of skin, lymph nodes, blood, and visceral sites.

Endogenous cortisol: A regulator of the number of lymphocytes in peripheral blood
TL;DR: The data suggest that endogenous cortisol is an important factor in the regulation of lymphocytes numbers and that replacement quantities of cortisol to patients with adrenal insufficiency caused a dose-dependent lowering of lymphocyte levels.

Malignant lymphoma, well differentiated lymphocytic. Its relationship with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and macroglobulinemia of Waldenström
TL;DR: The findings suggest that although WDL, CLL and well differentiated lymphoproliferative diseases with monoclonal gammopathy are histologically similar, their clinical and hematological presentations differ sufficiently to justify their separation into three distinct entities.
