Similar distribution of peripheral blood eosinophil counts in European and East Asian populations from investigations of large-scale general population studies: the Nagahama Study

We read with interest the study by Hartl et al. [1] entitled "Blood eosinophil count in the general population: typical values and potential confounders", recently published in the European Respirator Journal. This is an excellent paper showing the distribution of blood eosinophil counts in the general population, including more than 10 000 participants. The authors found a right-skewed, non-normal distribution with the tail towards the higher counts.
