Cholesterol in the separation of transudates and exudates

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2001
The Light criteria represent the most acceptable method to separate transudates and exudates. However, approximately 10% of patients with transudates, especially those with congestive heart disease, are misdiagnosed with these criteria. To improve diagnostic accuracy, many biochemical markers have been proposed as alternatives to differentiate ...

Pleural Effusions: The Diagnostic Separation of Transudates and Exudates

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1972
Abstract In this prospective study of 150 pleural effusions, the utility of pleural-fluid cell counts, protein levels, and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) levels for the separation of transudates from e...

The separation of transudates and exudates with particular reference to the protein gradient

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2004
The separation of pleural transudates from exudates, as the first step in the study of pleural effusions of unknown cause, is generally accepted as a useful practice. However, the optimal way to do this remains moot.New and more sophisticated biochemical markers have been proposed together, with new approaches to the interpretation of the results ...

A new approach to pleural effusion in cats: Markers for distinguishing transudates from exudates

open access: yesJournal of Feline Medicine and Surgery, 2009
Classification of pleural effusion (PE) is central to diagnosis. Traditional veterinary classification has distinguished between transudates, modified transudates and exudates.

Discriminating Between Transudates and Exudates

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2006
The dichotomous classification of pleural fluid as a transudate or an exudate simplifies diagnostic efforts in determining the cause of pleural effusions. Multiple pleural fluid tests are available to discriminate between these two classes of effusions. Tests commonly used in clinical practice depend on the detection in pleural fluid of large-molecular-

Pleural Cholesterol in Differentiating Transudates and Exudates

Respiration, 2009
Two hundred and four patients with pleural effusion were studied to investigate the utility of Light’s criteria and pleural fluid cholesterol level (pCHOL) in the identification of exudative pleural effusion (EPE) and transudative pleural effusion (TPE). There were 48 TPE, 56 tumor, 47 tuberculous, 30 metapneumonic and 23 miscellaneous patients.
