It has been reported that parasites affect the health and productivity of birds, initiate excessive preening which interrupts feeding, as the birds spend much time preening rather than being involved in other essential life activities. occurs in pigeons widely in tropical and subtropical regions. The present investigation was concentrated on the effect of infection on the hemogram and changes in the number of white blood cells in infected pigeons. Blood samples taked from 100 pigeons in Shahrekord. Blood smears stained and observed for infection. Packed cell volume (PCV) and total white blood cells (WBC) count and differential WBC count determinate for every smears. This study show that PCV increased in infected pigeons by than non infected pigeons. There were increasing in the number of total WBC in the infected pigeons by than non infected pigeons. Also there were significant differences between the number of lymphocytes and eosinophils in the infected pigeons by than non infected pigeons. This study and same studies show the part of the effects of blood parasites on the hemogram, but there were many questions about the effects of blood parasites such as on the other parameters of host's blood, so we advise to focus on the other hematological parameters in the future studies.
据报道，寄生虫会影响鸟类的健康和生产力，引发过度梳理行为，这会干扰进食，因为鸟类会花费大量时间梳理羽毛，而不是参与其他重要的生命活动。这种情况在热带和亚热带地区的鸽子中广泛存在。本研究集中于[寄生虫名称]感染对受感染鸽子血常规及白细胞数量变化的影响。从设拉子的100只鸽子身上采集血样。对血涂片进行染色并观察[寄生虫名称]感染情况。对每一张涂片测定血细胞比容（PCV）、白细胞总数（WBC）及白细胞分类计数。本研究表明，受感染鸽子的PCV比未受感染鸽子增加了[X]。受感染鸽子的白细胞总数比未受感染鸽子增加了[X]。此外，受感染鸽子的淋巴细胞和嗜酸性粒细胞数量与未受感染鸽子相比也有显著差异，增加了[X]。本研究及其他类似研究显示了血液寄生虫对血常规的部分影响，但关于血液寄生虫如[寄生虫名称]对宿主血液其他参数的影响仍有许多问题，因此我们建议在未来的研究中关注其他血液学参数。
