Circulating Nucleated Red Blood Cells: An Updated Reference Interval

CONCLUSIONS.—: Based on statistical analysis of our results, we concluded that the upper limit of the RI could be updated from 0.01 × 106/μL to 0.10 × 106/μL. Increasing the upper limit of normal for the nRBC RI should decrease patient consternation from an abnormal laboratory value and significantly decrease costs through reducing unnecessary follow up care, and without causing patient harm.PMID:38432308 | DOI:10.5858/arpa.2023-0328-OA
