Statistical methodology employed in estimating reference intervals.
Lower and upper reference limits were determined using the 2.5th and 97.5th percentiles.

Comparison of mean red blood cell count (RBC), white blood cell count (WBC), haemoglobin (HGB), and lymphocyte (LYM) values between different instruments.
Instrument 1 denotes Cell-Dyn Sapphire and Instrument 2 denotes Sysmex XS-100i.

Variations of mean red blood cell count (RBC), white blood cell count (WBC), haemoglobin (HGB), and lymphocyte (LYM) values according to age and gender.
* denotes significantly higher values (P < 0.05) between genders in the same age group.

Comparison of mean red blood cell count (RBC), white blood cell count (WBC), haemoglobin (HGB), and lymphocyte (LYM) values amongst ABO blood group.
The selected analytes show no significant difference amongst ABO blood group.
