dc.description.abstractThis study was conducted in order to compare blood erythrocytary parameters in athletes who have been doing sports in various branches for at least five years and sedentary university students. The study covered 28 male athletes at the age of 19-20 doing sports in various branches and 21 sedentary male university students-49 in total. Having received a briefing about the tests, volunteers were measured for their physical measurements such as body height and body weight as well as their blood lipid levels. Volunteers were lectured not to take in any food or drink after 10:00 PM before the day when their blood samples would be taken. Blood samples were taken at 8:00-9:00 AM in the laboratory. Blood samples of the participating volunteers that were taken from the forearm antecubital area into 5 ml EDTA tubes in line with the hygiene rules were analyzed by means of an auto-analyzer in the central laboratory for blood erythrocytary parameters such as erythrocyte (RBC; Red Blood Cell), Haemoglobin (HBG), Haematocrit (HCT), Mean Red Blood Cell Volume (MCH), Mean Cell Haemoglobin (MCH), Mean Cell Haemoglobin Concentration (MCHC) and Red Blood Cell Distribution Width (RDW). The independent t-test was applied to define the differences between the groups. Level of significance was taken as 0.05. The study revealed that there was not a significant difference between the groups in terms of body height, body weight and body mass index (p>0,05) whereas the difference in blood erythrocytary parameters such as RBC, HBG, HCT, MCH, MCH, MCHC and RDW was significant (p<0.05). As a conclusion, we consider that, in volunteers of the same age group, athletes' having higher red blood cells compared to sedentary subjects can be attributed to the activity level of athletes. © IDOSI Publications, 2013.
