The present volume is a timely collection, as both context sensitivity and semantic minimalism are hot topics in current philosophy of language and linguistics, especially in the border dispute between semantics and pragmatics.
A reticulocyte test is used to determine the number and/or percentage of reticulocytes in the blood to help evaluate conditions that affect red blood cells (RBCs), such as anemia or bone marrow disorders. Reticulocytes are newly produced, relatively immature red blood cells.
Although decreased RBC production is the main mechanism in both anemia of chronic illness and anemia of chronic kidney disease, oftentimes the anemia is due to a combination of events, including concomitant blood loss. Therefore, a reticulocyte count should always be interpreted with caution.
