Reference intervals of haematological indices for young adults with sickle cell anaemia in Southwestern Nigeria
Generally, the reference interval for Haematocrit (%) is 17.8 to 29.7, while the WBC (x 10<sup>9</sup>/l) ranged between 5.9 and 12.1 and the platelet count (x 10<sup>9</sup>/l) is 166-465. For the male participants, the reference interval for haematocrit (%) was found to be between 17.8 and 29, the WBC (x 10<sup>9</sup>/l) ranged between 6.7 and 12.1 and the platelet count (x 10<sup>9</sup>/l) was between 166 and 399. The female subjects had a haematocrit (%) of between 18.7 and 28.5, WBC of between 5.9 10<sup>9</sup>/l and 13.0 × 10<sup>9</sup>/l and the platelet count (x 10<sup>9</sup>/l) was between 225 and 465.
