High lymphocytes

With the rapid development of medical technology, some diseases can be diagnosed through some examinations. For example, through blood tests, many diseases can be diagnosed, which provides great help for doctors' diagnosis. Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cells. What disease can cause high lymphocytes? If a certain indicator is higher than the normal value, it means that there is definitely a problem with the body, but the disease cannot be diagnosed through this one item. Multi-faceted examinations and comprehensive considerations are required.

High lymphocyte count is mainly caused by viral infection, and some blood diseases and malignant tumors can also cause high lymphocyte count. However, when the test shows that the lymphocyte count is high, don't be too nervous. Actively cooperate with the doctor's various examinations. The final conclusion is not necessarily a bad one, so you must have a good attitude.

Under normal physiological conditions, the lymphocyte ratio is 20%-40%. Lymphocyte detection belongs to the category of routine clinical blood tests. The morphology and ratio of lymphocytes can be observed by detecting, counting and classifying white blood cells.

Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell. They are produced by lymphoid organs and are important cellular components of the body's immune response function. Lymphoid organs can be divided into two categories: central lymphoid organs and peripheral lymphoid organs, based on their occurrence and function. The former include the thymus, bursa or its equivalent organ (some people believe that it is bone marrow in mammals). They can continuously proliferate lymphocytes without antigen stimulation, and transfer them to peripheral lymphoid organs after maturity. The latter include spleen, lymph nodes, etc. Mature lymphocytes need to rely on antigen stimulation to differentiate and proliferate, and then exert their immune function.

Clinically abnormal lymphocyte ratios:

1) Lymphocytosis: mainly seen in infectious diseases, and mainly viral infections, such as measles, chickenpox, mumps, viral hepatitis, epidemic hemorrhagic fever, and can also be seen in pertussis, tuberculosis, brucellosis, syphilis, etc. In addition, lymphocytosis can also occur in tumor diseases (leukemia, lymphoma), the recovery period of acute infectious diseases, and after organ transplantation.

2) Lymphocytopenia: mainly seen in the treatment of adrenocortical hormones, alkylating agents, antilymphocyte globulin, radiation damage, immunodeficiency disease, gamma globulin deficiency, etc.

The above introduces the reasons for high lymphocytes and which diseases are likely to cause elevated lymphocytes. I hope it will help you better understand lymphocytes. The various body fluids are relatively unstable. Don’t be too sad or happy because of a single test result. This is very irrational. It can be considered from many aspects.
