A comparative study of serum effusion albumin gradient and Light's criteria to differentiate exudative and transudative pleural effusion

Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2020
Context: The incidence of pleural effusion is approximately one million per year. For diagnosing and treatment plan, pleural effusions have to be classified into transudate and exudate.

Discriminating transudates and exudates in dogs with pleural effusion: Diagnostic utility of simplified Light's criteria compared with traditional veterinary classification

, 2020
Objectives To determine whether the simplified Light's criteria (ie, pleural effusion lactate dehydrogenase concentration and serum total protein) can identify the pathophysiology of pleural effusion formation in dogs, and to assess whether these ...

Biomarkers of lung congestion and injury in acute heart failure

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 781-789, April 2025.
Abstract Acute heart failure (AHF) classification and management are primarily based on lung congestion and/or hypoperfusion. The quantification of the vascular and tissue lung damage is not standard practice though biomarkers of lung injury may play a relevant role in this context.

Lactic acid in exudates and transudates.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1926
We have determined lactic acid in a number of serous fluids and in samples of blood taken at the time of paracentesis. Determinations were made immediately by the method of Clausen.The exudates all showed a considerably greater lactic acid content than that of the blood, the highest values and greatest excess being found in frankly purulent fluids and ...
