No there is not a clear relationship.
Why do you want to know how many ESRs are done?
If you are a physician, you should know that an ESR is something like
taking a temperature. It can give one a clue that something is not quite
right. Sometimes it may be the only "symptom".
If you are interested in the science, please see J. Biol. Sys.3, 273 (1995
