What is the normal value of neutrophil ratio

The best way to know whether a person has an inflammatory infection is to have him or her do a routine blood test and see whether the neutrophil ratio in the blood test results is within the normal range. However, non-medical professionals may not know what the normal neutrophil ratio is. In order to help everyone better understand neutrophils, here we will introduce to you the normal range of neutrophil ratio.

Granulocyte classification includes neutrophils, eosinophils, and alkaliphils. The granulocyte ratio is 100%, including the percentage of neutrophils, eosinophils, and alkaliphils. Therefore, the granulocyte ratio refers to the proportion of various cells, which is an overall concept. In disease diagnosis it is complete data. The neutrophil ratio refers only to its ratio in all granulocytes and is a single concept. There is no indication of the proportion of the other two types of cells. In disease diagnosis there is incomplete data.

The neutrophil ratio was 48.7 (normal value is 50-70), the lymphocyte ratio was 41.8 (normal value is 20-40), and the alkaliphilic cell ratio was 1.6 (normal value is 0-1).

Neutrophil count is one of the items in routine blood tests. Generally speaking, an increase in this count can be divided into several situations. One is that there is a bacterial infection in the body, and the total white blood cell count and neutrophil count are much higher than normal. Clinically, symptomatic antibiotic treatment is often used according to the condition. Another situation is when there is a viral infection in the body. The total white blood cell count is not high or is slightly higher than normal, and the neutrophil count is also slightly higher than normal. However, in this case, the lymphocyte count is much higher than normal. Antiviral treatment is often used clinically. However, in the later stages of viral infection, due to secondary bacterial infection, the white blood cell count and neutrophil count will also increase abnormally.

Another situation is that when the body is allergic, the neutrophil count is slightly higher and the eosinophil count is abnormally increased. If a secondary bacterial infection occurs at a later stage, the total white blood cell count and neutrophil count will also increase abnormally.

Now you should know what the normal value of neutrophil ratio is. In fact, when judging the degree of inflammation, you cannot rely solely on the neutrophil ratio. You also need to combine it with other values ​​to make a judgment. Therefore, if only the neutrophil ratio is within the abnormal range, there is actually no need for special treatment.
