Reliable interpretation of abnormal immunity depends on an understanding of what constitutes “normal.” We and others have reported that lymphocyte patterns are affected by ethnicity, sex, and environmental factors.1-3 Differing exposure to infectious agents, such as malaria, tuberculosis, and cytomegalovirus, could underlie differences in lymphocyte subset patterns in contrasting settings.4-6 In this study we analyzed combined data from 3 studies of healthy children from Thailand,1 Malawi,2 and the United States 3 who had used similar standard flow cytometric methods and markers, thus allowing assessment of immune heterogeneity across settings with differences in ethnicity and infectious disease exposure.
