Neutrophils
Females, Age 70+
The median neutrophil count for females aged 70+ in the US population is 4.1 (x1000 cells/uL), with 90% of this group falling between 2.2 and 7.1.

Data and Methodology
- Dataset
- NHANES 2017-March 2020 Pre-Pandemic ( NHANES 2017–2020 2020 , Survey-weighted percentiles from pre-pandemic MEC sample)
- Survey years
- 2017-2020
- Sample size
- 690 participants
- Reference population
- US civilian non-institutionalized females aged 70+ from NHANES 2017-March 2020. Includes the full population (not restricted to healthy individuals) to reflect the population distribution.
- Exclusion criteria
-
- Missing neutrophils measurement
- Missing or zero MEC sample weight (WTMECPRP)
- Age outside 70+ range
- Notes
- Percentiles computed using survey-weighted analysis (WTMECPRP weight from the pre-pandemic combined file). Neutrophils measured as LBDNENO in 1000 cells/uL.
