Values are mean, median, standard deviation and 95% confidence interval. Values are expressed as circulating cells per ml of peripheral venous blood and as percentage of total white blood cells for leukocyte, or total lymphocytes for lymphocyte subpopulations, respectively. WBC, White Blood Cells; NEU, neutrophils; LYMPH, lymphocytes; MONO, monocytes; EOS, eosinophils; BASO, basophils.
