A lymphocyte ratio of 48% is abnormal and above the normal value range.
Lymphocyte ratio is the ratio of the lymphocyte count in the blood to the total number of white blood cells, and the normal range for this ratio is 20% to 40%. The lymphocyte ratio of 48% is higher than the normal value range, for the lymphocyte ratio is elevated, which is abnormal.
1. Elevated absolute value of lymphocyte count can lead to elevated lymphocyte ratio, for example, when the organism has viral infection or tuberculosis infection; in addition, when the organism has acute or chronic lymphocytic leukemia, the absolute value of lymphocyte count will be significantly elevated, and the lymphocyte ratio of such patients is often significantly elevated.
2. Neutrophil count in leukocyte classification has a great influence on the percentage of lymphocytes, therefore, when neutrophil count is significantly reduced, such as immune neutropenia, acute leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome and other diseases, the lymphocyte ratio will also be relatively elevated.
It is recommended that the patient should consult the hematology department in time, complete the relevant examinations to clarify the cause of the disease, and then under the guidance of the physician to actively treat the cause of the disease.
