Significance of alpha-2-macroglobulin, alpha-1-acid glycoprotein, and C-reactive protein in pleural effusion differentiation

, 2000
Background: The differentiation between exudates and transudates is fundamental when investigating the cause of pleural effusions. Acute-phase proteins could be potentially useful markers in this discrimination.

Transudate or exudate: can lactate dehydrogenase activity in canine and feline effusions help to differentiate between the 2?

, 2016
Background: Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity is often measured in human effusions to help in differentiating between transudates and exudates. Few studies have been performed using effusion samples from animals.
