AI simplified
Abstract
In a study of 3189 male steelworkers, smoking, poor sleep, shift work, and obesity were all significant factors associated with white blood cell (WBC) count.
- Smoking, poor sleep, shift work, and obesity were identified as significant factors affecting WBC count.
- Obesity was independently linked to red blood cell (RBC) count.
- An association was found between smoking and increased hemoglobin levels.
- Hematocrit levels were independently associated with smoking, poor sleep, and obesity.
- Smoking was the primary factor associated with mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH).
- When divided into quartiles by WBC count, associations with hematological parameters were consistent across lifestyle factors.
