In total, 60 children newly diagnosed with ALL and 70 controls were included in this retrospective study. Males were significantly higher than females in the ALL group (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = .010). The ALL group had significantly higher NRBC#, NRBC%, WBC, lymphocyte, monocyte, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean platelet volume (MPV), and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < .05, for all). The ALL group had significantly lower RBC, platelet, neutrophil, eosinophil, basophil, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and albumin levels (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < .001, for all) and also mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = .004). According to receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, NRBC# and NRBC% were the biomarkers to have a significant diagnostic value for ALL with the area under the curve (AUC) of 0.837 and 0.677 (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < .001,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = .001, respectively). These results showed that NRBC increases in children with ALL and that NRBCs may represent a supportive biomarker contributing to the diagnosis of pediatric ALL.\n <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/00099228261435390","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,4]],"date-time":"2026-04-04T04:45:40Z","timestamp":1775277940000},"page":"1021-1026","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Diagnostic Value of Nucleated Red Blood Cells in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"65","author":[{"given":"Defne","family":"Ay Tuncel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology, Faculty of Medicine, Adana City Training and Research Hospital, Adana, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1915-2330","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nurten","family":"Seringec Akkececi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiology, Faculty of Medicine, Kahramanmaras Sutcu Imam University, Kahramanmaras, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Can","family":"Acipayam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology, Faculty of Medicine, Kahramanmaras Sutcu Imam University, Kahramanmaras, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MPH.0000000000002715"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/cells12141817"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2147\/IJGM.S219744"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2174\/1573403X15666190225123544"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0144259"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fcimb.2023.1264607"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MPH.0000000000001467"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0044321"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7754\/clin.lab.2015.141250"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.critrevonc.2019.02.008"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms27010193"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1515\/CCLM.2011.766"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1751-553X.2011.01335.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajem.2020.10.002"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5858\/arpa.2023-0328-OA"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/16078454.2021"}],"container-title":["Clinical Pediatrics"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/00099228261435390","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/00099228261435390","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/00099228261435390","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,7]],"date-time":"2026-08-07T08:57:19Z","timestamp":1786093039000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/00099228261435390"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,3]]},"references-count":16,"journal-issue":{"issue":"8","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026,9]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/00099228261435390"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/00099228261435390","relation":{},"ISSN":["0009-9228","1938-2707"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0009-9228","type":"print"},{"value":"1938-2707","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,3]]}}}
