Comparative analysis of pleural fluid biochemical parameters with cholesterol to differentiate transudates from exudates

The Journal of Association of Chest Physicians, 2013
Background: Light′s criteria is the gold standard to differentiate transudative pleural effusion (PE) from exudative PE, but it requires four biochemical estimations which, in developing countries such as India, may not be feasible in every patient due ...

Efficacy of pleural fluid alkaline phosphatase and its ratio to serum levels in distinguishing exudates from transudates

Lung India, 2004
The objective of present study was to evaluate the efficacy of pleural fluid alkaline phosphatase and its ratio to serum levels to classify pleural fluids. A total of 80 patients were divided in transudates and exudates on the basis of extensive clinical,

Dosagem de proteínas totais e desidrogenase lática para o diagnóstico de transudatos e exsudatos pleurais: redefinindo o critério clássico com uma nova abordagem estatística Determination of total proteins and lactate dehydrogenase for the diagnosis of pleural transudates and exudates: redefining the classical criterion with a new statistical approach [PDF]

Jornal Brasileiro de Pneumologia, 2010
OBJETIVO: Propor um novo critério de classificação para a diferenciação entre exsudatos e transudatos pleurais através da dosagem de proteínas totais no líquido pleural (PT-LP) e de desidrogenase lática no líquido pleural (DHL-LP) exclusivamente, assim ...

Diagnostic accuracy of thoracic CT to differentiate transudative from exudative pleural effusion prior to thoracentesis [PDF]

Respiratory Research
Background Computed tomography (CT) scan is commonly performed for pleural effusion diagnostis in the clinic. However, there are limited data assessing the accuracy of thoracic CT for the separation of transudative from exudative effusions.

A Study of Uric Acid - A New Biochemical Marker for The Differentiation Between Exudates and Transudates in A Pleural Effusion Cases

National Journal of Community Medicine, 2014
Background: Pleural effusion is an excessive accumulation of fluid in the space lies between the lung and chest wall i.e. pleural space. In normal condition, pleural space contains 0.1–0.3 ml/kg body weight of fluid (near about of 10 ml of fluid on each

Docetaxel-Induced Serositis Mimicking Malignant Pleural Effusion. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Pleural effusions are common in patients with cancer. Although their development may signal progressive malignant disease, drug‐induced effusions are a rare and often overlooked cause of exudative pleural effusions. We describe a 50‐year‐old woman with recurrent granulosa cell tumor of the ovary who developed bilateral pleural and pericardial ...
