The phrase "abnormal lymphocytes" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in medical contexts to describe lymphocytes that deviate from the normal appearance or function, often indicating a potential health issue.
Example: "The lab results showed an increase in abnormal lymphocytes, prompting further investigation into the patient's immune system."
Alternatives: "atypical lymphocytes" or "irregular lymphocytes".
We then compared the OS of patients that have abnormalities in their PCs but no detectably abnormal lymphocytes, with the survival of patients who have abnormal PC and also harbor chromosomally abnormal BM-lymphocytes (Fig. 4B) for each abnormality separately.
The presence or absence of any particular chromosomal abnormality may be of less clinical significance than the fact that abnormal lymphocytes populate the BM, and their presence correlates with reduced survival.
As shown in Table 1, abnormal lymphocytes and hemophagocytosis were concomitantly observed.
These abnormal lymphocytes were determined as of lymphoid nature by flow cytometry.
Most cases in this group showed a proportion of abnormal lymphocytes far above 5%.
Figure 4 shows serial changes in the percentage of abnormal lymphocytes during 39 months of observation.
HIV-infection has been reported to cause abnormalities in the structure and function of the gastrointestinal tract as well as abnormal lymphocyte trafficking [ 54] that may facilitate LGV acquisition.
It has also been postulated that familial PBC has an associated abnormal lymphocyte function [ 12].
One third of the patients show lymphopenia, and over 80% show abnormal lymphocyte proliferation upon stimulation with mitogens.
Last, other plausible hypotheses suggest that certain patterns of microbial exposure might actually protect against an abnormal lymphocyte proliferation that develops into ALL.
Chronic abnormal lymphocyte activation is thought to predispose to NHL, and risks of NHL among patients with autoimmune disease are highly elevated (Grulich et al. 2007).
