and insulin resistance. Since, eosinophil and monocyte derivatives have already been established, a combined absolute count representing innate immunity was considered in this study. The results of this study suggested a significant increase in the innate immunity response in subjects with higher insulin resistance. It was stated that the odds of having higher insulin resistance is twice, with higher absolute counts of eosinophils or monocytes or higher counts of combined eosinophils-monocytes.
