The effect of age on the accuracy of Light’s criteria

Revista Clínica Española (English Edition)
This study aimed to investigate the effects of age on the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of Light's criteria to differentiate exudative from transudative pleural effusion.A testing cohort from China and a validation cohort from Spain were used for data analysis.

New lights in light's criteria

Pathology, 2015
Aims Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy-based metabolome-wide association studies (MWAS) has been increasingly used in advanced laboratory medicine and biomarker discovery. Here, we will apply NMR-based MWAS to develop new diagnostic test for exudative and transudative pleural effusions (PE) with improved accuracy.

Pleural Fluid Analysis: Are Light's Criteria Still Relevant After Half a Century?

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2021
Fifty years from their initial description, Light's criteria are still unhesitatingly accepted as the default reference test for separating pleural transudates and exudates.

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

The Veterinary Record, 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 ...

A Predictive Model for the Identification of Cardiac Effusions Misclassified by Light's Criteria.

Laboratoriums Medizin, 2019
OBJECTIVES The application of Light's criteria misidentifies approximately 30% of transudates as exudates, particularly in patients on diuretics with cardiac effusions. The purpose of this study was to establish a predictive model to effectively identify

Interference criteria for the focusing of light

Soviet Journal of Quantum Electronics, 1980
A method is proposed for increasing the effectiveness of an adaptive system for the focusing of light beams traveling in an inhomogeneous nonlinear medium. A case of practical importance, when the target size is greater than a diffraction-limited light spot, is considered.

The Ouroboros Model in the light of venerable criteria

Neurocomputing, 2010
The Ouroboros Model is a new conceptual proposal for an algorithmic structure for efficient data processing in living beings as well as for artificial agents. Its central feature is a general repetitive loop, where one iteration cycle sets the stage for the next.
