    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • Clinical Diagnostics

    Background:

    • Primary and secondary immunodeficiencies (IDs) impair the immune system.
    • Accurate diagnosis and monitoring are essential for patient management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review available tests for assessing lymphocyte and monocyte function.
    • To discuss the utility of these tests in diagnosing and monitoring primary and secondary IDs.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of diagnostic tests for immune cell function.
    • Analysis of test applicability in immunodeficiency assessment.

    Main Results:

    • Various functional assays exist for lymphocytes and monocytes.
    • These tests offer valuable insights into immune system status.

    Conclusions:

    • Functional testing of lymphocytes and monocytes is vital for diagnosing and managing immunodeficiencies.
    • Appropriate test selection aids in effective patient care.
