“…Such alterations result from increased need of energy and protein catabolism, contributing to immunological and gastrointestinal alterations. 13 Regarding the hematological parameters (Table 2), no statistical differences were found between AML patients and healthy subjects for leucocytes, lymphocytes, monocytes, and granulocytes, although the median values tended to be higher in the AML group. This lack of statistical significance might be explained as a function of two factors: (a) the relatively small number of subjects in the present samples; (b) the great variability normally found for white blood cells (leucocytes) in patients with leukemia.…”
