Neutrophils are dropped in an adult. What it says, causes lymphocytes high, dropped in the analysis

If an adult neutrophils in the blood are lowered, this is evidence of the body's infection by different viruses or bacteria. This figure is also a sign of suffering a disease or medical treatment.

Norms and function of immune cells

The immune system is represented by cells united in a certain group of types and characteristics. Each group performs a specific task, aimed at protecting the body from harmful microorganisms.

All the constituent parts of the human body are connected to each other, as happens on the intercellular level. Immune cells transcribe foreign "agents", collect information about them, react to elements harmful to the body by means of their destruction.

Cells of the immune system is composed of particles:

• leukocytes;
• phagocytes;
• neutrophils;
• monocytes;
• dendritic cells.

Immunogram on the basis of a blood test makes evaluation of cells that produce antibodies them, providing information about the human condition. Explanation of this analysis consists of a large number of parameters, which correspond to the applicable standards.

In research laboratories belonging to various medical institutions, the rules may vary. This is due to the use of different diagnostic methods, tools and reagents.

leukocyte function

The basis of the system of the human body's immune system are white blood cells that come in several forms. These blood cells do not allow the infection to hit healthy cells.

White blood cells are divided into several types with different functions:

• T lymphocytes guarantee immunity cells, microorganisms and eliminate extraneous defects. In addition, it provides resistance to infections and contribute to the formation of blood, and control functions of B lymphocytes.
• B-lymphocytes protect the body from bacterial and viral infections by antibody production. Cells of this type give immunity to the ability to remember. Once confronted with harmful micro-organisms, the information on it is postponed, and with it, and its destruction methods. Subsequently, the cells transmit information through inheritance.
• monocytes - bearers of the immune system, absorbing the remnants of parasitic activity of the active cell products. They are not only smooth out the body from pests, but also transmit information about them to new cells.

When the joint and the correct operation of human leukocytes body is maintained in a healthy condition.

White blood cells by their morphological properties are divided into 2 level:

• granulocytes - a grainy particles of blood, the main of which neutrophils;
• agranulocytes.

The number of lymphocytes in the blood - an important indicator of a healthy body. Reduced indicators show immunodeficiency and autoimmune inflated indicate deviations or excessive work of immunity. The causes of variances are only for additional studies.

Types and function of neutrophils

Neutrophils are dropped in an adult may indicate arisen in the body inflammation. Bacteria contained in the cell pellets as well as receptors located in the membrane of the partitions - this composition is able to combine specific antibody.

Neutrophils fall into the area of ​​inflammation and counteract the harmful substances. Only one particle neutrophil cell absorbs about 30 "enemy" bacteria.

To understand the activity of neutrophils, it is necessary to pay attention to two important points:

1. Firstly, the cell may be to sacrifice themselves. If there is on its way harmful microorganism neutrophils destroy it by absorption, hereinafter the process of phagocytosis, digestion. Thereafter, extraneous intracellular split element, and together with the pest die.
2. Second, the white cells are 6 stages of development. In the initial steps of 4 cells are placed in the bone marrow. On the remaining stages along with the moving blood flow and carry out their actions.

Neutrophils in the initial period of maturation, and reduced their number in the adult, certain laboratory by, it becomes a sign of the defeat of the body by a virus.

Neutrophils are divided into the following types:

• myeloblasts - primary cells;
• promyelocytes - the appearance of granules in the cells;
• myelocytes;
• metamyelocytes;
• stab granulocytes;
• segmented granulocytes.

During the initial destruction of infection taken mature segmented cells. If the disease is not running, then their actions are sufficient to suppress it. When the complex flow of infectious diseases come granulocytes stab type. They were included young myelocytes and metamyelocytes ripening in a healthy condition of the body.

Lowering of neutrophils observed in severe diseases, as first die elements are segmented. The body has to produce young cells, otherwise not enough mature cells. As a result, there will be a surplus of new immature neutrophils, indicating a shift in the white blood cell parameters in adult men and women.

neutrophil function can be described by a simple scheme:

• Determined by harmful bacteria.
• Phagocyte attached to pests and plunges into it.
• Neutrophil object absorbs.
• Under the influence of enzymes is split.
• "Agent" is digested, and the remnants of his cells were removed.

The unit cell of neutrophilic consumes tens to three pieces of harmful microorganisms. The functions of these cells are not limited by phagocytosis, but their activity is aimed at the elimination of pathogenic bacteria. After a complete victory over the "enemy" neutrophil he begins to produce antibodies, which provide information about the body of extraneous elements, increases immunity.

What happens in the body at low levels of neutrophils

Neutrophils are lowered in adult - is the main symptom of "neutropenia". With the penetration of viruses, cells create their own hearth around the area of ​​inflammation, preventing the spread of germs. The wound pus, inflammatory syndrome. If a person is already sick neutropenia, the disease has no symptoms. The infection spreads quickly and can cause sepsis.

For the first time the disease is manifested by-disease:

• necrotic angina;
• stomatitis;
• cystitis;
• urethritis;
• osteomyelitis.

  

Microbes are safe for a healthy body, but cause serious problems for people suffering from inadequate performance of neutrophils.

Neutropenia is diagnosed as a disease:

• acquisitions;
• innate;
• outstanding.

In the case of a low index of neutrophils in the blood, patients are disruptions in the digestive system, impaired intestinal microflora. Patients experience symptoms of such diseases. Only a specialist is able to detect low levels of the various forms of neutrophils, and the doctor, based on the data indicative of the changes in health and prescribe treatment.

Reasons for decrease of neutrophils

Neutrophils were reduced in the adult are also the treatment of viral diseases due to reception of medical preparations. However, this state returns to normal at the end of treatment.

If after 3 days the immune cells do not increase the possibility of infection increases. Body may require further examination, in which the true cause of disease. This phenomenon occurs during or after a serious illness and subsequent exhaustion.

The most common causes are similar:

• SARS;
• rubella, measles;
• hepatitis A;
• chicken pox, typhus;
• HIV infection;
• sore throat;
• acute otitis media and appendicitis;
• chronic anemia;
• side effects of radiotherapy;
• environmental pollution.

What does this mean, if neutrophils dropped and lymphocytes increased in the adult?

Neutrophils are lowered in adult and lymphocytes increased - this information picture evidence of infection. To establish the correct diagnosis, need some analytical indicators in conjunction with other methods of examination of the patient. Results decrypts the specialist, it is impossible to try to establish the diagnosis, especially prescribe treatment.

These figures constitute a danger in case of extensive infection accompanied by infiltration of microorganisms into the systemic circulation. Bone marrow does not have time to produce new neutrophils, dying after exposure to damaging "agent".

State is accompanied by the following symptoms:

• a sharp rise in temperature;
• weakness and dizziness;
• palpitations and rapid breathing;
• lowering blood pressure.

The patient must be hospitalized for preventing septic shock which every second patient ends lethal.

types of neutropenia

The disease occurs due to adverse effects on the body from the outside, and also the intracellular pathology.

There are several types of the disease:

• autoimmune - the very immune system destroys neutrophils;
• drug - drugs adversely affect the cells;
• cyclical - a rare congenital form of;
• isoimmune - mother's antibodies through the placenta to "attack" on neutrophils fruit;
• mielokateksis - neutrophils do not move from the bone marrow into the blood;
• Kostmana syndrome - a genetic disease, insufficient production of cells.

severity

The heavier the degree of damage, the more serious complications. For extreme stage is characterized as acute inflammation, and loss of them that indicates the full depletion of granulocytes.

There are 3 stages of the disease:

severity level	Quantity NF in 1 ml of blood	risk of infection
light	1000-1400	minimum
moderate	500-1000	average
severe	below 500	tall

First, the easiest level of the disease has not pronounced symptoms and needs no special treatment. Moderate degree of neutropenia is treated on an outpatient basis, but with regular visits to the doctor. And in severe illness required hospitalization.

What analysis helps to determine the level of neutrophils in the blood

Calculation of the absolute number of neutrophils produce in specifically designed laboratory equipped with specialized equipment. Man hands over a common blood test, according to the testimony of an expert which determines the condition of the patient. The finished result is indicated on the form.

Survey Preparation

The preparatory process for the analysis is subject to certain conditions:

• Abstain from any food for 12 hours prior to admission to the fluid does not apply.
• Cancel exercise, avoid stress.
• Within 2 days before the study does not accept greasy, fried food, do not drink alcohol, do not smoke.
• 3-4 days to suspend the use of any drugs. If drugs technique is vital, it is necessary to notify the physician.

If the patient survey is conducted in the complex, the first blood was taken at a general analysis. Other diagnostic manipulations are carried out later.

How to take the analysis as wait for answers

Always analysis for rent on the morning of the treatment room. Prepare for the exam, the patient from the finger rents blood. The results will be ready the next day. There are urgent situations where indicators are needed immediately, in this case study is carried out in a shorter period. Generally for decrypting analysis just a few minutes.

Deciphering the analysis results

Deciphering of blood, it must be remembered that the regulations of such cells in adults are the same, regardless of gender, but different - regardless of age. The form does not have the column "neutrophils", so the rate is considered by some subspecies.

Age	Norma neutrophils
stab	segmented
adults	from 1 to 4%	from 40 to 60%

Increased neutrophils - defined function to protect the body, accompanied by inflated numbers of white blood cells. A slight increase in neutrophils indicators is in severe physical stress, psychosis, anxiety. Pregnant women also observed inflated figures.

A large increase in the number of such cells is the occurrence of disease. If reveal initial forms of neutrophils, it is manifested in the form of infectious phenomena of purulent discharge.

Underreporting the number of these cells show dysfunction of the bone marrow. Toxic factors destroy the cells, it becomes a source of disease.

treatment with drugs

Any disease begins, for some reason, it also depends on properly chosen therapy. Reason neutropenia - an infection, and the need to fight it with her. The attending physician may advise the patient treatment in a hospital or at home, depending on the severity of the disease.

Main line treatment - to provide sustained immunity and subsequently maintain its preventive measures.

In medical therapy means includes:

• glucocorticoids;
• antibiotics;
• vitamin B12, folic acid;
• immunoglobulin;
• medications for symptomatic therapy.

The doctor picks antifungal agents, among which the most popular "Ketoconazole" and "Fluconazole".

If the patient neglected diseases may be placed in a separate room where sterility is ensuredAs well as regular ultraviolet radiation. An important part of the treatment of neutropenia are preventive measures.

With frequent repeated defeats of a bacterial infection, doctors recommend spending sulfametaksazola course application or trimetoprimoma. In clinical studies, the efficacy of these preparations is high, but strictly individual. Therefore, to pursue a course of preventive taking medication must be under medical supervision.

To the passage of the treatment to reduce the risk of complications, it is important to follow some guidelines:

• avoid crowded places;
• timely vaccinated against influenza and other viral diseases;
• be sure to observe the rules of hygiene;
• not to eat raw eggs and seafood.

Antiviral therapy, but good, can produce unpleasant side effects. Therefore, treatment is a complex process and should be carried out under the supervision of a physician.

Recipes of traditional medicine

Enhance immunity by using various means folk therapy using dosage balms, herbal teas and infusions. This is especially significant in autumn and winter, when the risk of the maximum.

vegetable parts are used for the manufacture of salves:

• aloe;
• nuts, honey, lemon;
• cranberries and apples.

To prepare the balm of aloe, we must find the plant, whose age is not less than 3 years. Before cutting off the sheets did not watered for 2 weeks.

A method for the preparation of drugs is as follows:

1. 0.5 kg of the leaves of the aloe plant drier and put in the refrigerator for 5 days.
2. The leaves are ground in a grinder, obtained ½ cup mushy mixture.
3. Add ½ cup of honey, 300 g of Cahors wine.
4. All mix thoroughly.
5. Eat 3 times a day before meals.

An effective means for treating wounds in the oral cavity is sage possessing anti-inflammatory properties.

Prepare a simple infusion:

1. 2 hours. l. sage pour 400 ml of boiling water.
2. Wrap infusion of warm blanket, to insist 2-3 hours.
3. Strain the mixture and rinse your mouth.

Vitamin drinks strengthen the immune system, are prophylactic against viral infections. Herbal ideally affect the human body.

To prepare the decoction, will be useful:

• valerian root;
• hop cones;
• Linden;
• motherwort;
• lemon balm, and others.

Recommended warm bath with the addition of various herbs. Usually use dry branches and leaves of the bushes: currant, wild rose, raspberry. Useful properties has decoction of leaves and mountain ash cranberries, added to the bath.

Forecast

Prognosis affects the degree of damage, timely treatment. If the disease was of benign mild, there is a cure guaranteed. If the disease is caused by malignancy, it is impossible to predict anything. According to statistics, 20% of such patients is unfavorable prognosis.

Today, modern techniques are used in many medical centers with which results can be obtained very quickly. Sometimes doctors resort to surgery, bone marrow transplants. Successfully perform the operation ensures a good prognosis in the treatment of disease. Neutropenia of this type has a very small percentage of the probability of infection of the body's infection.

neutrophils in the blood of an adult person suffering from a congenital disease, significantly reduced. To bring them back to normal, the patient takes a long preventive treatment. Regularly conducted after antiviral therapy requires examination of the patient, namely the delivery of blood analysis on the absolute number of neutrophiles and leukocytes.
