Italian term

citogramma flogistico

Italian to English Medical Medical (general) cytology tests
This is at the top of an "Esame Citologico" report, under Notizie Cliniche:

Broncoaspirato
Recente Polmonite
Per *citogramma flogistico*

I'm not familiar with cytograms (Google tries to give me results for "cystograms" ... but this is different, right?). The word "flogistico" has to do with inflammation ... but I don't know how to put them together. There are no or almost no findings for "inflammation cystogram" or "inflammatory cystogram".

The sample consists of fluid aspirated from the lungs.

How would you translate the name of this procedure?

Thank you again for your help.

cyto/cysto Hi Zareh, yes ... if I had stopped to think about it, I would have remembered the difference!
Zareh Darakjian Ph.D. Oct 19, 2012:
Yes, Joseph This, I would think is in refernce to a cytogram. As you know, cyto > cell.

Selected

inflammatory cell profile

"...based on inflammatory cell profile"

Alternative suggestion, since I don't think cytogram is a really common way to express this in English.
Peer comment(s):

agree Lirka : yes, or inflammatory cell counts ( that being said, I wonder if they're not actually referring to flow cytometry[??])

cytogram to assess inflammation
Note from asker:
Buenos días Liz. I had also thought it might be "cytogram for inflammation" ... but I had no idea if this is standard terminology.

inflammatory cytogram

This appears to be one of the 5 main types of cytograms:

The internal surface of uterus after the separation of afterbirth is a great
wound surfase. Among the objective criteria of wound process course
evaluation cytologic examination takes an important place. This method
is a reliable and technically simple mode of uterine state evaluation.
When evaluating the results 5 types of cytograms are distinguished:
necrotic, degenerative-inflammatory, inflammatory-regenerative,
** inflammatory** , regenerative.

bstract

Cytologic analysis of lochia in 118 puerperae helped distinguish 5 types of cytograms. A normal postpartum period is characterized by a gradual transition from an inflammatory to regenerative type. Subinvolution of the uterus is associated with a prolonged persistence of the inflammatory regenerative type, this pointing to deceleration of endometrium purification processes. The ** inflammatory, ** degenerative-inflammatory, and necrotic cytogram types were characteristic of endometritis of varying severity. The necrotic cytogram type was found the most prognostically unfavorable.

Wouldn't the findings be "inflammatory", rather than the cytogram?
