Blood counts were performed on 100 male and 100 female staff to establish normal ranges for our hospital. Neutrophil counts were found to be on average 0.66 times 10-9/1 (660/mm-3) higher in women than in men. Statistically this difference was highly significant and was not due to the fact that many of the women were taking oral contraceptives. The neutrophil counts of the men and women were also on average 0.50 times 10-9/1 (500/mm-3) greater in the afternoon than in the morning. A correlation was observed between the neutrpphil and the monocyte counts.
对100名男性和100名女性员工进行了血细胞计数，以确定我院的正常范围。发现女性的中性粒细胞计数平均比男性高0.66×10⁹/L（660/mm³）。从统计学上讲，这种差异非常显著，且不是因为许多女性正在服用口服避孕药。男性和女性的中性粒细胞计数下午也平均比上午高0.50×10⁹/L（500/mm³）。观察到中性粒细胞计数与单核细胞计数之间存在相关性。
