3 × 103 μL with lymphopenia (1.17 × 103 μL/15% of total WBC), normal neutrophils and monocytes; CRP = 2.94 mg/dL (N < 0.5 mg/dL); LDH = 173 U/L (normal values = 157–272 U/L); serum fibrinogen = 351 mg/dL (normal values = 150–390 mg/dL) and D-dimers = 0.51 μg/mL FEU (normal values < 0.5). The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is lymphopenia.
