We evaluated the performance of a fully-automated hematology analyser CELL-DYN 4000 (CD4000; Abbott Laboratories, CA, USA) for T-lymphocyte subset analysis using the samples from 58 patients with hematological disorders. A flow cytometer (CytoronAbsolute; Ortho Diagnostics, NJ, USA) was used for comparison. Good correlations were shown between CD4000 and CytoronAbsolute for the of CD3(+), CD4(+), and CD8(+) T-lymphocyte counts (for each of correlations, r = 0.992, 0.992, and 0.969, respectively). This good correlation was sustained even in 24 cases in which the CD4(+) T-lymphocyte counts were less than 200/microl. In this group the correlation coefficients (r-values) for the comparisons between CD3(+), CD4(+), and CD8(+) T-lymphocytes measured by CD4000 and CytoronAbsolute were 0.991, 0.976, and 0.990, respectively. The CD4000 T-lymphocyte assay is a completely automated method, and does not require opening of the sample tube, which reduces exposure to any biohazards such as HIV. Furthermore, the method is rapid and requires only 7 min for completion of the analysis.

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.

D012680 Sensitivity and Specificity Binary classification measures to assess test results. Sensitivity or recall rate is the proportion of true positives. Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed) Specificity,Sensitivity,Specificity and Sensitivity
D015496 CD4-Positive T-Lymphocytes A critical subpopulation of T-lymphocytes involved in the induction of most immunological functions. The HIV virus has selective tropism for the T4 cell which expresses the CD4 phenotypic marker, a receptor for HIV. In fact, the key element in the profound immunosuppression seen in HIV infection is the depletion of this subset of T-lymphocytes.

D018414 CD8-Positive T-Lymphocytes A critical subpopulation of regulatory T-lymphocytes involved in MHC Class I-restricted interactions.
