    This study establishes new reference ranges for peripheral blood cell counts in a healthy donor population. These findings update diagnostic standards for various diseases, replacing outdated European formulas.

    Area of Science:

    • Hematology
    • Clinical Pathology
    • Diagnostic Medicine

    Background:

    • Peripheral blood cell counts have been crucial diagnostic tools since the 1930s.
    • Current reference values are based on the outdated Schilling formula from early 20th-century European populations.
    • There is a need for updated, population-specific reference ranges for accurate disease diagnosis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To establish current reference values for peripheral blood cell counts.
    • To provide updated data for a healthy population qualifying as blood donors.
    • To offer a more relevant standard for clinical diagnostics in the local population.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of peripheral blood cell counts was performed using the Technicon H6000 automated analyzer.

  • Data were collected from 212 healthy males and 43 healthy females.
  • Statistical analysis included calculation of means and 5th and 95th percentiles for key cell counts.

    • Main Results:

    • Mean values and percentile ranges for 212 males and 43 females were determined.
    • The reported values represent a contemporary dataset for a healthy, non-diseased population.
    • Specific numerical results for various blood cell parameters are detailed in the study.

    Conclusions:

    • The study provides updated reference ranges for peripheral blood cell counts in a local, healthy population.
    • These new ranges are essential for improving the accuracy of disease diagnosis and monitoring.
    • The findings facilitate a transition from historical European-based standards to current, relevant clinical benchmarks.
