the zeta potential of the rbc's ( the negative charge on the rbcs) REPELLS the rbcs. so. if the number of rbcs is more, more will be the repulsion.
females have a lesser blood count than males physiologically.
do the rest math urself :-)

Normal values of ESR by wintrobe's method?
Males: 0-9 mm/h Females: 0-15 mm/h
Is esr result of 48 mm normal?
No an ESR of 48 is high and indicates that there is some sort of inflammation in your body. The normal sedimentation rate (Westergren method) for males is 0-15 millimeters per hour, and for females is 0-20 millimeters per hour. The sedimentation rate can be slightly more elevated in the elderly and is much lower for children.
How does anemia menstruation kidney and thyroid disease cancer age homorne disorder and certain infections affect erythrocyte sedimentation rate.?
How is ESR affected by anaemia? In anemia hematocrit is reduced and as a result the velocity of the upward flow of plasma is causing the red blood cell aggregates to fall faster. Macrocytic red cells that have a smaller surface-to-volume ratio also settle more rapidly.How is ESR affected by Menstruation? ESR is not effected by menstruation.How is ESR affected by kidney disease? ESR is raised as a result of the presence of Infection, Inflammation, Malignancy. As one of these symptoms are likely to be present it would lead to a raised ESRHow is ESR affected by thyroid disease? Unless there is Infection, Inflammation, Malignancy the ESR would remain unaffected.How is ESR affected by cancer? ESR becomes raised where there is a malignancy.How is ESR affected by Age? ESR becomes higher with ageHow is ESR affected by homorne disorder? ESR is not affected by hormone levelsHow is ESR affected by infections? ESR becomes raised when infection is present.How is ESR affected by sex? ESR is naturally higher in women than in men.How is erythrocyte sedimentation rate affected by inflamation? ESR becomes raised when infection is present.
Why ESR values are different in male and female?
ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) values can be higher in females due to hormone fluctuations, pregnancy, or conditions like anemia. In males, ESR values might be lower due to differences in hormones and muscle mass. Overall, variations in ESR values between males and females are influenced by biological factors and hormonal differences.
Why is erythrocyte sedimentation rate higher in females?
This sedimentation rate in females should normally be under 20, with slight variation depending in the lab doing the testing. 50 indicates that there is some sort of inflammation some where in the body. A sedimentation rate will indicate inflammation, however it does not indicate what is causing it. these test are most often used in monitoring autoimmune disorders such as Rheumatoid arthritis.ESR stands for erythrocyte sedimentation rate. this is a test that indirectly measures the level of inflammation is in the body.normal readings areAdults, Westergren method Women under 50 years old-- less than 20 mm/hrWomen over 50 years old---- less than 30 mm/hr.
What effects does iron deficiency have on ESR?
It would cause the ESR to go up
Erythrocyte sedimentation rate is 12 age 58 hemoglobin level is14.6 is it normal?
Hemoglobin levels are measured in grams per deciliter of whole blood. They are different for males and females. Normal hemoglobin levels for adult males is 14-18 gm/dl, And the Normal level for adult females is 12-16 gm/dl. ESR stands for erythrocyte sedimentation rate. this is a test that indirectly measures the level of inflammation is in the body. For ESR normal readings are Adults, Westergren method Men under 50 years old-------less than 15 mm/hr Men over 50 years old-------- less than 20 mm/hr Women under 50 years old-- less than 20 mm/hr Women over 50 years old---- less than 30 mm/hr Children Westergren method, Newborn--------------------------0 to 2 mm/hr Neonatal to puberty------------3 to 13 mm/hr mm/hr. = millimeters per hour .
Which esr rate of blood is probably idicative of tb?
in tb esr increase very high than the normal range(>50mm/1st hr.) it can increase .100mm in 1st. hr.
If a patient has an ESR count of more than 100 what does it mean.?
it showes some inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arteritis or malignancies or some infectious such Kala Azar or TB
What does ESR mean in Blackjack?
ESR means Early surrender in blackjack.
What is the cause of reoccurrence of ESR after normal range?
afternormal why esr shootup again
What is a sedimentation rate?
Sedimentation rate is a test used to diagnose inflammation in the body. Westergren method is one of the ways that sedimentation rate is evaluated. Normal sedimentation rate for males is 0-15 millimeters per hour, females is 0-20
