The values are presented as mean ± standard deviation. For data analysis, Student’s t-test was used. For data analysis, the chi-squared test was used; BMI: body mass index; WBC: white blood cells; RBC: red blood cells; HB: haemoglobin concentration; HCT: haematocrit; MCV: mean corpuscular volume; MCHC: mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration; PLT: platelets; kg/m2: kilograms/meter square; μl: microlitre; g/dl: grams/decilitre; %: percent; fl: femtolitre; g: grams; cm: centimetre; N: number of cases.
