Leucocytal indexes in apparently healthy cats

Abstract

Leukocyte indices are ratios that are used to assess the state of the patient's blood and immune system. The use of leukocyte indices in the diagnosis of feline diseases is currently limited, which is mainly due to the lack of norms in wide publication, as well as studies of patterns characteristic of specific groups of diseases, as well as the nature of the course of pathological processes. The purpose of the presented study was to assess the indicators of leukocyte indices in clinically healthy cats. The analysis of morphological parameters of the blood of 11 mongrel clinically healthy cats with the obligatory absence of a stress leukogram was carried out. The number of leukocytes and leukogram in the blood were determined according to generally accepted methods, followed by the calculation of leukocyte indices: Krebs index (KI), leukocyte intoxication index (LII), G.D. Dashtayants nuclear index (NI), leukocyte shift index (LSI), leukocyte index (LI), neutrophilmonocyte ratio index (NMRI), the index of the ratio of lymphocytes to monocytes (IRLM). The obtained data are expected to further expand the diagnostic and prognostic capabilities of cat diseases. In the future, the study is planned to be expanded with the capture and analysis of individual nosological units and breed characteristics, as well as the features of the diet, the ratio to the severity of the condition, the analysis of life expectancy and survival. It should be noted that in order to more accurately determine the diagnostic significance and the possibility of determining forecasts, it is necessary to increase the number of animal samples with an assessment of indicators in dynamics.
