Raised inflammatory markers are inferred if the patient has an erythrocyte sedimentation rate of at least 12.0mm/h, or a serum C-reactive protein of at least 10.0mg/L, or a plasma viscosity of at least 1.72cP. If none of these values have been supplied then raised inflammatory markers is not inferred.
Raised platelets is inferred if the patient has a platelet count > 400.
Microcytosis is inferred if the patient has a mean corpuscular volume (MCV) of less than 80fL.
