Clinicians should consider whether the patient smokes if they want to diagnose any diseases using volume, conductivity and scatter parameters.
📌 3 Key Takeaways
🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Aim: In this study, weaimed to determine changes in leukocytes volume, conductivity and scatter parameters in smokers compared to non-smokers.Methods: A total of 117 individuals (45 smokers and 72 non-smokers) were included in the study.
📊
Key Findings & Data:While those who smoked at least 10 pack-years were included in the case group, those who never smoked at all were included in the control group.Results: While there was a statistically significant difference in mean neutrophil volume, mean neutrophil conductivity, mean lymphocyte conductivity, mean lymphocyte scatter, mean monocyte volume, mean monocyte conductivity, mean monocyte scatter, mean eosinophil conductivity values between the two groups, there was no statistically significant difference in mean neutrophil scatter, mean lymphocyte volume, mean eosinophil volume, mean eosinophil scatter values between the two groups.Conclusion:Thisstudyshowedthatsmokingaffectedvolume,conductivityandscatter parameters.
