Someone with an irrational love of, or fetish for, weaponry (especially firearms). From the Greek hoplon meaning armaments, and philia meaning love or intense friendship. Watch out for that weird guy with the NRA Sticker on his 4x4, he looks like he might be a hoplophile!
As with platelets, neutrophil levels may become depressed in patients on myelosuppressive therapy such as imatinib mesylate (also called IM, Gleevec or Glivec). The normal range of the percentage of neutrophils is between 45% and 70%.More important than the percentage of neutrophils is the absolute neutrophil count (ANC) , which should fall between 1.0 to 8.0 k/ul.s with platelets, neutrophil levels may become depressed in patients on myelosuppressive therapy such as imatinib mesylate (also called IM, Gleevec or Glivec). The normal range of the percentage of neutrophils is between 45% and 70%.
Neutrophilia refers to a higher than normal number of neutrophils. Neutrophilia may result from a shift of cells from the marginal to the circulating pool (shift neutrophilia) without an increase in the total blood granulocyte pool (TBGP) or from a true increase in TBGP size (true neutrophilia).
