“…The Automated Haematologic Analyzer (Sysmex, KX-21, Japan) was used to analyse the haematological parameters of red blood cells (RBC), haemoglobin (Hb), packed cell volume (PCV), Mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC), large unstained cell (LUC), red cell width coefficient of variation (RDW-CV), white blood cell (WBC), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW) and platelets. The levels of other parameters were determined as described for bilirubin (total and conjugated) [22] , total protein [23] , albumin [24] , globulin, sodium, calcium and potassium [25], whereas the activities of ALT and AST, GGT and ALP were determined using standard methods [26][27][28] .…”
