Abstract

Aims: To determine region-specific citationsRaw ranges of lymphocyte T subsets in blood donors and to assess the influence of gender and age on lymphocyte T susbsets.
Methods: Blood samples from 143 blood donors were collected in the Blood Transfusion Center of Sfax. Lymphocyte T subsets were analyzed using a dual-platform method with a flow cytometer (percentages) and an automated hematology analyzer (white blood cells and lymphocytes). ANOVA and Student’s tests were used for data analysis.
Results: citationsRaw values were expressed as mean and 95% confidence intervals for T cells: CD3+: 1415 ± 348 cells/μL [1357–1473], CD3+/CD4+: 786 ± 220 cells/μL [732.31–811.7], CD3+/CD8+: 639 ± 258 cells/μL [596-862] and CD4+/CD8+ ratio was 1.46 ± 0.77 [1.36–1.62]. Gender and age influenced blood lymphocyte T subsets.
Conclusion: Our study leads to the establishment of peripheral blood lymphocyte T subset citationsRaw ranges in blood donors in the region of Sfax. A study on a more diversified population, including more important number of individuals from various regions of Tunisia and including enumeration of other lymphocyte subsets (B cells and NK cells) is required.
