AB  - OBJECTIVE: To establish the reference range of venous blood measured by automated 
      hematology analyzer in China. METHODS: Different hematoanalyzers were used to 
      examine the white blood cell (WBC), red blood cell (RBC), hemoglobin (Hb), mean 
      corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), 
      mean corpuscular volume (MCV), and hemotocrit (HCT) of venous blood from 1,749 
      healthy people, 927 males and 822 females, aged 18 - 60, in 14 cities (Harbin, 
      Changchun, Beijing, Tianjin, Lanzhou, Xi'an, Nanjing, Suzhou, Chengdu, Wuhan, 
      Chongqing, Fuzhou, Kunming, and Guangzhou) of China. The examination was 
      completed within the period of one month under strict in-laboratory quality 
      control. RESULTS: The range of WBC was (3.97 - 9.15) x 10(9)/L in males and (3.69 
      - 9.16) x 10(9)/L in females. The range of RBC was (4.09 - 5.74) x 10(12)/L in 
      males and (3.68 - 5.13) x 10(12)/L in females. The range Hb was 131 - 172 (151) 
      g/L in males and 113 - 151 (129) g/L in females. The range of MCH was 27.8 - 33.8 
      (30.8) pg in males and 26.9 - 33.3 (30.2) pg in females. The range of MCHC was 
      263 - 375 (335) g/L in males and 278 - 372 (325) g/L in females. The range of MCV 
      was 83.9 - 99.1 (91.2) fl in males and 82.6 - 99.1 (91.3) fl in females. The 
      range of HCT was 38.0% - 50.8% (44.8%) in males and 33.5% - 45.0% (38.9%) in 
      females. The lower limits of WBC in Lanzhou and Chengdu were lower than those in 
      other cities (P < 0.01). The concentrations of RBC and Hb in Kunming were 
      significantly higher than those in other cities (P < 0.01). There was no 
      significant difference in other parameters among different cities. The WBC, RBC, 
      and Hb in the females were lower than those in the males (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: 
      The reference ranges of different parameters of venous blood of Chinese have been 
      primarily established. There is little discrepancy in those reference range in 
      different district (except for highland). Some of the indices such as WBC, MCH 
      and MCV measured by analyzer are quite different from those measured manually.
