摘要：

After a challenge with corticosteroid, increments in the absolute neutrophil count were >50% in eight healthy black children with neutropenia, and >2.0 X 10(9)/L (>2000/mm(3)) in all but one child. Decrements in the absolute lymphocyte count mirrored the increments. Stimulation with hydrocortisone may be useful in characterizing ethnic neutropenia.
