Description

The effects of smoking and age on the results of hematologic tests were determined in a group of 429 healthy male workers.<br>The results obtained were as follows:<br>1) The values of total leucocyte count (×109/l), neutrophil count (×109/l), lymphocyte count (×109/l), monocyte count (×109/l), hemoglobin (g/l), hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume (MCV; fl), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH; pg), and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC; g/dl) in current smokers were significantly higher than those in non-smokers.<br>2) Total leucocyte counts and neutrophil counts significantly increased with the number of cigarettes smoked per day in current smokers.<br>3) Total leucocyte counts, neutrophil counts, and lymphocyte counts significantly increased with Brinkman Index (B. I.) in current smokers.<br>4) The increase of age was significantly associated with the decrease of erythrocyte counts and the increase of MCV in both current smokers and non-smokers.
