Popis: There are many reasons for abnormal lymphocyte and platelet counts. In this study, we aimed to assess the prevalence of thrombocytosis, thrombocytopenia, lymphocytosis and lymphocytopenia in patients with lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) and patients with urinary tract infection (UTI). This retrospective study included 52 LRTI patients and 60 UTI patients. Control group consisted of 70 healthy individuals admitted to the infectiology outpatient unit. No statistically significant relationship was found between the groups of subjects and platelet count. Seven (11.7%) UTI patients and four (7.7%) LRTI patients had lymphocytopenia but there was no statistically significant relationship between the groups of subjects and lymphocyte count. Study results suggested a conclusion that lymphocyte and platelet counts could be within the normal ranges in patients with UTI, as well as in those with LRTI.
Mnogo je razloga koji mogu poremetiti broj limfocita i trombocita. Cilj ovoga istraživanja bio je procijeniti učestalost trombocitoze, trombocitopenije, limfocitoze i limfocitopenije u bolesnika s infekcijom donjih dišnih putova (IDDP) i bolesnika s infekcijom mokraćnog sustava (IMS). Ova retrospektivna studija uključila je 52 bolesnika s IDDP i 60 bolesnika s IMS. Kontrolnu skupinu činilo je 70 zdravih osoba primljenih u ambulantu za infektivne bolesti. Nije utvrđena statistički značajna povezanost pojedinih skupina ispitanika i broja trombocita. Limfocitopeniju je imalo sedam (11,7%) bolesnika s IMS i četiri (7,7%) bolesnika s IDDP, ali nije bilo statistički značajne povezanosti skupina ispitanika i broja limfocita. Rezultati istraživanja ukazuju na zaključak da broj limfocita i trombocita može biti unutar normalnih granica u bolesnika s IMS, kao i u onih s IDDP.
