Relationship between Increased WBC with Increased Lipid Profile in Blood

Abstract

Background: leucocytes are cells of the immune system involved in defending the body against both infectious disease and foreign materials.

When increase or decrease in the number of leukocytes in the blood is often an indicator of disease (the normal level of WBC in blood between 4000 to 11000 cell/ ml), they make up approximately 1% of blood in a healthy adult. An increasing in the number of leukocytes over the upper limits is called leukocytosis, and the decrease below the lower limit is called leukopenia.

Objective: To evaluate the relation between increased WBC with increase lipid profile in blood.

Material and Method: This research contained  study 64 patients  (average age between  20 – 35 years )  suffering from increasing WBC " diagnostic by    WBC count test "and perform  lipid profile test (Triglyceride ,  cholesterol , LDL , HDL ) for all patients and shows the changes in lipid profile

Results: we found relationship between increasing levels of lipid and increasing WBC disease. These result are (45% cholesterol) (58%Triglyceride)(39% LDL)(22% HDL). That is mean, the increasing of lipid profile were stimulation of immune system to increasing the white blood cell.

Conclusion: We conclude than an increasing WBC associated with increasing of lipid profile
