Correlation of Total Leucocyte Count and Differential Leucocyte Count in Relation to Glycated Haemoglobin in Type 2 Diabetes
Journal Title: International Journal of Health Sciences and Research - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
Elevated blood glucose is a one among the other cause of unfavorable changes in biochemical and hematological indices due to uncontrolled hyperglycemia and is a major factor development of complications due to diabetes. The objective of the present study is to correlate total leucocyte count and differential leukocyte count with glycated hemoglobin also called as HbA1c testing. This study was conducted on 100 Diabetic patients without hypertension, coronary artery disease & pregnancy. Blood samples of diabetic subjects were collected and analyzed for Glycated hemoglobin and hematological indices (TLC & DLC). Abnormal test results are indicated by numbers higher or lower than the range 4000 – 10000 cells / cumm or microliter (mcL). Result shows that total leucocyte count were significantly increased in diabetic patients with relative neutrophilia (neutrophil count more than 80 % ), relative lymphocytopenia (lymphocyte count less than 20 %) with high glycated hemoglobin indicating some form of non specific inflammation or infection .
