The paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria is a rare clonal disease characterized by somatic mutation of gene PIG-A at the level of stem hematopoietic cell. This process results in disorder of synthesis of glycosil phosphatidyl innozitol (GPI) anchor fixing numerous molecules on membrane of blood cells which protect blood cells from impact of complement. The international society of clinical cytometry (2010) proposed the guidelines of detection of clone of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria among erythrocytes, granulocytes and monocytes.

The mutation status of genes of variable region of heavy chains of immunoglobulins (IgVH) is the most reliable prognostic factor forecasting time until beginning of treatment in case of b-cell chronic lymphatic leukemia. However its detection nowadays is inaccessible for routine diagnostics.

The analysis of relationship between numbers of studied cells and level of C-reactive protein, sCD40L, sCD30 and laboratory parameters specific to liver functions is applied The number of CD34-positive hemopoietic hematoblasts in children with hepatocirrhosis correlated with the level of C-reactive protein, albumin, hemoglobin concentration and quantity of blood erythrocytes. No relationship was established with the levels of sDC40L and sDC30.

In the documents GOSTK 53002-2008, S28-A3 (CLSI) of 2008 the regulations are proposed to establish the reference intervals with detailed description of data statistical analysis. The processing of blood pictures of 1453 healthy patients the reference intervals were established for the indicators of clinical blood analysis.
