The mean leukocyte count of group I increased at the sixth day, and the average leukocyte count of group II decreased. This difference was not statistically significant (P N .05). Both groups showed an increased average absolute percentage of total lymphocyte count at the end of the sixth day, but this difference was not statistically significant (P N .05) (Fig. 2A). Both groups had increased average total lymphocyte count at the end of the sixth day, but this difference was not statistically significant (P N .05). Group I showed a decreased average absolute percentage of total lymphocyte count, and group II had increased average absolute percentage of total lymphocyte count; but this difference was not statistically significant (P N .05). Group I had decreased average Tlymphocyte count, and group II had increased average Tlymphocyte count; but this difference was not statistically significant (P N .05).
