Neutrophils observed in the differential of a 14 year old boy demonstrate heavy purplish cytoplasmic granulation with the presence of dohle bodies. Chief complaint listed in the EMR is fever. This trait is indicative of

Match the MCV/RDW that would most likely correlate with each clinical scenario.

Hypersegmentation of neutrophilic nuclei is hallmark of which disorder?

In a 1 month old with alpha thalassemia, you would expect to find:

A 25-year-old woman presents with fatigue and pallor. Her laboratory results are as follows: Hemoglobin (Hgb): 8.0 g/dL Hematocrit (Hct): 24% Reticulocyte Count: 5% RBC Count: 2.8 x 10⁶/µL Reticulocyte Maturation Factor: 2.0 (adjusted for anemia, for Hct

You are performing a differential for a patient with absolute leukocytosis and lymphocytosis. The following peripheral blood picture under the microscope should prompt you to do which of the following?

Combined with the relative reticulocyte count, which index can provide the greatest insight into activity of the bone marrow during treatment for an anemia? 

Hypersegmentation of neutrophilic nuclei is hallmark of which disorder?

A 9-year-old girl has bruising noted on the extremities and back, reportedly recurrent for one month duration. Lab results show a Hgb 7.1 g/dL, Hct 22.8%, MCV 89 fL, platelet count 63,000/µL, WBC count 19,128/µL. BM biopsy shows 100% cellularity with replacement by primitive cells with large nuclei, delicate chromatin; indistinct nucleoli with scanty cytoplasm. These cells mark for CD10 (CALLA) antigen. Which of the following is the most likely diagnosis?

A patient reports to the lab for annual blood work. The CBC shows moderate anemia, which is reported to the physician. Morphologically, the RBCs are of normal size and shape. A reticulocyte count is reflexed and reported to be 0.7%, with a RPI = 1. Which cause of anemia is suggested?
